Spartan’s Luck Hold & Win Slot Review

“Come back with your shield or on it.” Those are the words that the babe in 300 said to King Leonidas 👑 as he was getting ready to go off to war. 🗡️🛡️

If that were my ex-wife, she’d have said, “Hurry up and take care of your business because there are many chores to do. And if you’re successful, when will the money come in? I hope your Will has been updated because you can’t expect me to start working…”

Or maybe that’s exactly what his wife said, and 300 Spartans weren’t facing thousands of Persians because they were brave, but because they’d rather die in a hail of arrows than go home to be nagged into an early grave. 🔊🦻

This is Spartan’s Luck Hold & Win slot from 1Spin4Win.

Gameplay

Warships, Swords, plumed Helmets, Warriors – damn, but I feel manly, right now. I’m ready to kick the postman in his 🐓 for delivering my mail so late.

Then, I’m gonna put on my best loincloth and blast Manowar on my phone. I’ll head to Walmart and smash shoppers with a pool noodle while shouting, “For honor!” What did you get up to this fine Friday?

OK, now that I’ve calmed down, let’s get back into it, shall we? The game’s grid is a humungous thing with massive symbols that make this game a stunner for mobile play. In landscape mode, though. Portrait mode has an infernal paytable above the grid, which is distracting.

There are 243 paylines, a 97.10% RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate.
, and a medium volatility rate. The max multiplier is 1,300x, and the game’s potential payout is $65,000. Not exactly spectacular, but it’s all aligned with the level of risk.

Features

HOLD & WIN FEATURE:

Land 3+ Shields to trigger the Hold & Win round where you’ll get 3 re-spins to start with (each new Shield will reset the spin counter).

Triggering Shields and new Shields will stick to the reels for the round’s duration, and you’ll keep spinning until you run out of spins or fill all of the grid positions with Shields.

When a Shield lands, it will flip and reveal a value or a Mini Jackpot… or not. In the latter case, the Shield will splinter and fall away, leaving that grid position open for new symbols.

At the end of the round, you’ll be paid the sum of all these values.

JACKPOTS:

Look above the grid, and you’ll see two static Jackpots – a Mini that pays 100x your bet and a Mega that pays 1,000x.

If you Shields with “Mini Pot” on them, this will trigger a payout of the Mini Jackpot. Fill all of the grid positions in the Hold & Win feature to score the Mega Jackpot.

Performance

As there’s no Buy Bonus option, I set the game to Autoplay and cycled through hundreds, if not thousands of spins. Not once did the game glitch or do something it wasn’t supposed to.

Maximum Win

You can win $65,000 – not bad for a day’s work. The game's largest multiplier is 1,300x, and the betting range goes from $0.10 to $50.

Conclusion

Spartan’s Luck Hold & Win slot is a super easy to get to grips with game. Even newbies will have no problems understanding how the Hold & Win feature works and the volatility rate shouldn’t be too off-putting.

If you like the theme but prefer something more combative, there’s Spartan King slot. It offers a very high volatility rate, but you could be rewarded with $374,700.

It’s not a Hold & Win game, but it offers Free Spins (up to 12), oversized Wild symbols, and Bonus symbols that pay when you land at least 3 of em.
