PG Soft has launched Azteca Legacy, a new 7-reel slot that debuts an unlock-to-free-spins mechanic and the 4-Corner Sync feature. The title is released with an RTP of 96.75%, high volatility and a top prize of 10.000x the stake.
Reel mechanics and pay conditions
Azteca Legacy uses a “5 or more” pay condition where matching symbols that touch horizontally or diagonally pay and then explode to create cascades. Wilds substitute for all symbols except the Free Spin symbol. The game has four golden positions on reels 2 and 6 that reveal random symbols at the start of each spin.
If any of those symbols participates in a winning combination, the four positions turn into wilds for the next round; when a wild is included in a win, the positions reveal random symbols again.
Unlock and the free spins feature
The free-spins trigger is based on six locked positions around the central Free Spin symbol. Any winning symbol that touches a locked position horizontally or diagonally unlocks it. When all six positions are opened, the Free Spin symbol activates and awards 10 free spins.
In the free spins feature the central Free Spin symbol becomes a fixed wild with an initial x1 multiplier that increases by +1 each time it appears in a win; the four golden positions remain wilds throughout the feature. A +2 Free Spin symbol can also appear to add two extra spins.
Ante Bet option
PG Soft has included an Ante Bet option that increases the stake by 5x and guarantees wilds in the four golden positions on every main-game spin. The supplier states this makes the free-spins feature five times more likely.
“We designed Azteca Legacy to gradually open a temple. Unlocking the centre of the reels gives the game a clear objective and, once free spins begin, that central wild keeps growing in power. It’s ideal for players seeking a big multiplier.” — a PG Soft spokesperson
