The Nemean Lion was a vicious creature in Greek mythology that wreaked havoc on the area of Nemea. And slaying the large lion was one of 10 (originally) tasks Hercules was told to complete by King Eurystheus after the son of Zeus asked the Oracle at Delphi for advice regarding the Goddess Hera who drove him to insanity.
To atone for what he had done, the high priestess told Hercules to serve the king who ruled over the kingdoms of Mycenae and Tiryns for a period of 10 years, and if he completed what became known as the Labours of Hercules, he would become immortal. The first of the seemingly impossible tasks was to kill the Nemean Lion, however, Hercules soon discovered that the beast’s golden fur was impenetrable, like a suit of armor.
Gameplay and Features:
Here, players will act as the hero Hercules and work to conquer the voracious lion to gain immortality. Helping that effort, players will collect scatters to boost their free game multipliers as they battle their way toward the monster’s den for a final showdown. Landing three scatters, will see Hercules enter the lion’s cave with the pre-collected multiplier levels which boost win potential.
Once in the den, Hercules/players receive 12 free spins, three multiplier positions and more multiplier positions for every additional scatter that lands in the bonus game. The free games feature is re-triggerable while in the bonus game.
Collection meters are located above reels 2, 3, and 4 and for every 1-2 scatters that land during a spin, they are added to that meter. When 50 scatters have been collected, a 1x multiplier is added to the meter.
Any winning combination that passes through a multiplier position will see the win include the sum of every multiplier it makes contact with. For example, if a win covers a 2x and 3x multiplier, the result would be a win of x6. Enjoy!
