Review of game by NetEnt, including real players' reviews and ratings, free play mode, winning screenshots, latest bonus codes and promotions. ...

game ReviewThe Relic Raiders game can be found at NetEnt casinos. NetEnt do make the house edge information of their slots games available and this can be found in the help files of the game (usually accessed by pressing the ‘?’ button at the bottom left of the game window). NetEnt games appear to only have one setting.Without crossing any copyright lines, this game has clearly taken a lot of influence from the Tomb Raider franchise – based on touring round the world raiding crypts for treasure and looking for precious stones.This game is a 5 reel game, with 50 paylines and you can bet up to 4 coins on each payline.There are 3 bonus features while playing this game. The first is activated when three or more of the ‘Treasure Chest’ scatter symbols turn up anywhere on the reels. When this happens you pick one of the scatter symbols, and win a number of complimentary spins and multiplier.The second bonus feature is activated when three or more of the ‘Relic Raiders’ bonus symbol turn up in a row on any payline starting from the left. When this happens, you’re taken to a world map and have to choose a crypt to search. Once you’ve chosen the location, you are presented with a map of the crypt and a pick axe to smash urns with. Each urn contains a treasure or a spider that will end the game. You keep smashing urns until you find ...

I was not sure what to expect, but the minimum bet for this game was quite high considering the 50 paylines structure.

So low rollers might skip this slot and prefer other games instead. I decided to play Relic Raiders on an avg. bet size of 50 cents. I always been amazed by slots with an adventurous team, and that's exactly how you feel when playing this game.

NetEnt did a fine job creating multiple second-tier bonuses. There is a bonus game which can be triggered when hitting 3 or more bonus symbols in succession on the first 3 reels or more. It also has wild symbols which appear quite easily on this game.

I'd say this a low variance slot, since almost every spin is a hit. If you got a bonus to clear, choose this game and you'll be safe most of the time without losing too much. The symbols are made up from several marbles, planes, monkeys, snakes and treasure chests. There are no card symbols used at this game, which is nice for a change.

The treasure chest symbols is that one of a scatter, and the top prize here is 200.000 coins. During one session I managed to hit the bonus round like 5 times. During the bonus round you have to choose a location from England, Egypt, Guatemala or Cambodia. After choosing a location you get redirected to a tomb full of vases.

Every vase reveals a prize, and some feature a relics coin. On avg. I think I won like 15x bet size, which certainly isn't bad. In the meanwhile I managed to collect 3 relics coins. On the left side of this slot it says you need 4 to win a mystery win. Unfortunately my bankroll ran out, and I never managed to find out how much the mystery win actually is.

I did come back a few days later though, but saw the collected mystery coins were no longer there. Apparently they are only saved for 36 hours. So the mystery win will always remain a mystery to me lol.

Apart from the bonus round, there is also the free spins feature. Collect 3 or more treasure chest (scatters) to trigger the free spins. You have to pick one of the treasure chests, which then reveals a number of free spins and a multiplier. I managed to trigger them twice hitting 15 free spins and a 2x multiplier once, and 12 free spins with a 2x multiplier.

If you hit 2 scatters during the free spins you win additional free spins or multipliers. I won like 50x bet size on avg. during these both rounds. Overall I'm probably even on this slot.

I'd give Relic Raiders a 7.5/10 rating.

The most unpleasant part are those series of dozens of spins of small payouts and tens of Euros losses. What is more, here you get bored from playing before to start winning. And you also need to have the 3 Bonus symbols aligned on a payline to enter the Bonus despite the fact that these bonuses are frequent on reels and exactly out of their place. This is unpleasant.

The background music is irritating so when I played this game I set it on mute. I can’t say that there is anything too impressive in this game and my overall experience with it is only one session.

The game has a very poor paytable with only 500 coins as max prize for 5 of the highest paying symbols on a winning payline. I have to say when I see a paytable like this I know the game won’t be paying but I give it a chance and I always end up disappointed. The wild symbol has a great payout of 10 000 coins for 5 of them on a payline and substitutes for all symbols except the scatter and bonus symbol. Still he doesn’t have a multiplier attached so that’s another setback in the overall gameplay. The scatter symbol has a standard payout of 200 x total bet and 3 or more trigger the free spins bonus.

The free spins number and multiplier is random and can go up to x 5 but I haven’t seen that even as a choice in the pick. When 3 scatters land on the reels you pick one and it reveals the number of spins and multiplier. Extra 2 scatters in the bonus game award more free spins or multipliers. Still 2 scatters rarely come in the game and usually the wins are small.

There is also a cash bonus in the game which is pretty hard to trigger and awards small wins. Overall this slot doesn’t pay big nor descent. Base play wins usually don’t even cover your bet and you drop really fast. Cash bonus awards 10-15 x bet wins and the free spins barely 20 x bet. I have no idea how it is possible to get a descent win in this game.

I mostly like every game from NetEnt software, I enjoy their games when I playing them. But at this one I did not enjoy at all.

The game has free spins feature and bonus game. The bonus game start when you get 3 or more bonus symbols in a succession from leftmost to right, on an active bet line. There you pick some symbols and you get coins win. The free spins feature starts when you get 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels. During free spins two or more scatter symbols activate additional free spins or higher multiplier up to x5.

When I played this game I triggered bonus games many times, but without any free spins feature. I was a little bit angry just because I never got 3 scatters on the reels. The bonus game is quite boring, you can win only small prizes – I never won more than x10 bet from bonus game. And most of the time I ended up the game after I picked just one symbol which is really funny. My win was not even x2 bet.

I do not like this game at all. The only reason why is because of the payouts. During base game is impossible to get any win higher than x5 bet. Most of my winnings were lower than my bet amount which I think is ridiculous. I lose on this game some of my money and I am sure I will not open it again. It is one of the worst game from NetEnt for me.
