Spirit of the Inca is a 5×3 Inca online slot by RTG with not one but five progressive jackpots! All five jackpots have set must trigger sums. Players also have access to the Spirit of the Inca bonus and expanding Wilds.
This is yet another high volatility RTG game. To be expected, considering the progressive jackpots and the requirements for keeping them active. If you are hoping to play on a budget, this title is not for you.
SLOT INFORMATION
You can bet between $0.50 and $5.00 on each spin. This time around, paylines cannot be toggled on or off. The minimum bet is somewhat high, and you will feel pressured to bet even more. You play this release on a 5×3 board with 25 paylines.
Wins are unlocked by finding at least three matching symbols next to one another, following an active payline. All wins have to start with the leftmost reel, or they will receive their current stake.
RTG did not release any information about Spirit of the Inca’s theoretical return to player (RTP). While this is not new for RTG, it does somewhat put us on edge. Especially considering the high wagering requirements this slot demands.
BASE GAME
You can find twelve distinct icons on the playing field. The Incan spirit is the Wild, while the priestess plays the role of Scatter.
The Wild also plays the role of highest paying symbol. The maximum prize you can win from the Wild is a 2000x jackpot. Contrast that to the bracelet and purple flower, the two lowest paying icons. They can grant prizes ranging from 5x to 100x. This gives us a decent set of paytable wins, but nothing that comes close to the jackpots.
EXPANDING WILD
Incan spirit Wilds can substitute for all symbols including Scatters. When they land on a reel, they expand to cover it in entirety before pays are awarded. Wilds are counted once per reel when substituting Scatters.
SPIRIT OF THE INCA BONUS
Land the Incan spirit on the first and fifth reel to win fifteen bonus symbols. You can pick five of those icons from the board. Your first three picks each reveal up to twenty-five free spins. Your fourth pick features a prize multiplier that goes up to 10x. Your final pick determines if you get a Wild reel, an extra Wild on each reel, or no extra bonus. Retriggering the bonus grants ten free spins.
JACKPOTS
All five progressive jackpots are active when playing for the maximum bet. As you decrease your wager, progressive jackpots will be toggled off accordingly. Jackpots are triggered randomly, meaning any spin could be a winning one.
VERDICT
Huge wins from progressive jackpots are something we quite like. However, if we want to keep all jackpots active, we have to play at maximum bet. We do not know what the theoretical RTP of this release is. As such, gauging whether it is worth playing Spirit of the Inca for $5 per spin is difficult. We advise caution for everyone who is not a high roller with a big budget. You can play Spirit of the Inca at all RTG powered casinos. We recommend Slotocash Casino.
