About the game
The first slot in Microgaming’s series of Tomb Raider slots was released 15 years ago, and its sequel arrived about 4 years later. Now its finally time for the release of the third slot in the series, and this one is without a doubt going to be a big step up with many exciting features. Temples and Tombs is a 5 x 3-reel slot with 243 ways to win where you will be able to place bets between 0.20 – 20 Euros per spin. The games RTP is set to be 96.05%. The reels are set in front of the entrance to an ancient temple, with the free spins feature hidden in the chambers behind it.
There are 11 different symbols in this game, which show up on stone slabs as they drop down from the top of the reels. The low paying symbols show as a water bottle, a bag, a grappling hook and a torch. The symbols of higher value are the god Sobek, a golden alligator and 3 different images of Lara herself. The book of Secrets symbolizes the scatter symbol while the wild symbol will show as golden coins.
Features
You will activate the free spins feature by landing at least 3 scatter symbols in one spin, and this will give you between 8 and 32 free spins to begin with. There is also a possibility to retrigger this feature by landing new scatter symbols, and you can end up with as much as 80 free spins that way. As long as this feature is activated, your starting multiplier will be set at 3x and consecutive wins will make it go higher for every win. It will be raised from 3x to 6x, 9x and all the way up to 15x, where it will stay as long as you are on a winning streak. A losing spin will reset the multiplier back to 3x.
Temples and Tombs also includes a jackpot feature, where you will get the chance to win either 15x, 100x or 5000x your stake! All wild symbols that land on the reels while youre playing will be collected and increase your chances of winning one of the jackpots, which can be randomly triggered on any spin you make.
This game also features rolling reels. When the symbols are a part of a winning combination, they scatter, and you will see new symbols falling from the top of the reels. This feature gives you a chance for new combinations and increases your chances of winning more in every spin you make. When this happens, you will also get a multiplier that will continue to grow from 2x, 3x and up to 5x for every new winning combination you get in a row. Similar to in the free rounds, also this multiplier will continue to be active until your next losing spin, when it will reset.
