About Medusa Hot 1
ReelPlay are taking you back to Ancient Greece in Medusa Hot 1, a five reel, three row video slot based on Greek mythology. This is a popular theme among slot players and producers, as witnessed by the amount of releases around this subject, Zeus God of Thunder being a prime example.
There are 15 ways to win in this game and wins are made when combinations of at least three matching symbols land across the reels from the leftmost reel onwards. The grid itself is set in the cave of the Gorgon and is flanked by two Greek columns.
The reels have been designed to look like a Greek temple and inside you will find the following symbols. First up we have the lower paying playing card royals Ace all the way down to Jack, which are accompanied on the reels by different creatures from Greek mythology. These are a satyr, a harpy, a mermaid, a warrior with a sword, a cyclops, and the highest paying symbol which is the Minotaur who pays 75x your stake if you land five on a payline. Medusa herself is the game’s wild and can replace each of the regular symbols, while the scatter is represented by a stone door with a snake’s head on it. The highest possible win in Medusa Hot 1 slot is 5,719x your total bet.

How To Play Medusa Hot 1

Medusa Hot 1 Bonus Features
One of the main features of the Medusa Hot 1 slot is the Mystery Respin feature and this is triggered when you land two bonus symbols. When this happens, the reels with the triggering symbols on them will stay locked in place while the rest of the reels respin. There are three different respins that can happen, and these are the Bonus Chance Respin, where the bonus symbols won’t change, the Medusa Wild Respin, where the bonus symbols change into wilds for the following respin, and Medusa Power Respin where the bonus symbols will change into wilds with a 5x multiplier for the following respin.
ReelPlay have also included a free spins feature which activates when you land at least three bonus symbols on the grid. There are seven free spins awarded, during which the triggering bonus symbols will change into the lowest paying character symbol and remain locked in place. When any new bonus symbol lands, it will become sticky before changing into the same character and an additional free spin will be awarded. Should the reels spin and no new bonus symbols land, then the ones that are already locked in place will become the next high value character.
On the last spin, the Hot 1 feature will be activated which turns all of the sticky bonus symbols into the Medusa wild symbol instead. Hopefully a new bonus symbol will land on this final free spin, in which case it will be locked in place while you get an extra Hot 1 spin.
