How to Play I Am Spartacus

I Am Spartacus is an online slot developed by Red Tiger Gaming, offering a gameplay experience on 5 reels. The game uses a 243 ways-to-win mechanic in the base game, allowing wins across adjacent reels regardless of specific paylines. Players can select their bet amount, with options ranging from a minimum of £0.10 to a maximum of £3 per spin. All spins are initiated manually via the spin button.

The game features 14 distinct symbols, including five high-paying gladiator weapon symbols, five low-paying royal symbols, a gold wild, a silver wild, a sticky wild, and an expanded wild. Wins are calculated from left to right, starting with the leftmost reel, in accordance with the pay table. Only the highest win on each combination is paid, and wins on different ways are added together.

Core Gameplay and Gladiator System

At the start of play, five gladiators are displayed above the reels in a greyed-out state. Each is linked to one of the five high-paying weapon symbols. To activate free spins, all five gladiators must be activated at least once. A gladiator is activated through an 'I Am Spartacus win', which occurs when the gold wild forms a winning combination with the gladiator’s associated weapon symbol. On a paid spin, involvement in such a win allows the gladiator to collect a power-up and trigger a unique reel modifier.

Wild Symbols

  • The gold and silver wilds substitute for any paying symbols to help complete winning combinations.
  • On each paid spin, a maximum of one wild (gold, silver, sticky, or expanded) can appear on each of reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Gladiator Modifier Features

Unique reel modifiers are triggered only during the base game when an 'I Am Spartacus win' occurs. Each gladiator offers a different effect on the spin:

  • Crixus: Converts one or more of the matching high-paying symbols in reels 2 to 5 into silver wilds.
  • Gannicus: On reels 2-5, any gold or silver wilds and sword symbols are transformed into sticky wilds, followed by a panel re-spin.
  • Castus: Triggers a re-spin and awards 3, 5, or 7 silver wilds randomly across reels 2 to 5 while the reels spin.
  • Valeria: Applies a multiplier of 2x, 3x, or 5x to the win for that spin.
  • Livia: Converts one of the matching high-paying symbols or wilds on reels 2 to 5 into an expanded wild.

Sticky wilds created in these features remain on the reels for the re-spin and are removed before the next paid spin.

Gladiator Power-Up Collections

Power-up collection takes place only in the base game and is also triggered by 'I Am Spartacus wins'. Each activated gladiator accumulates a unique power-up as follows:

  • Crixus: Collects 1, 2, or 3 free spins.
  • Gannicus: Collects 1 sticky wild.
  • Castus: Collects the same number of silver wilds as he awarded in his feature.
  • Valeria: Collects the multiplier value awarded.
  • Livia: Collects 1 expanded wild.

Crixus starts with 7 free spin power-ups already stored. The other gladiators begin with no stored power-ups.

Spartacus Free Spins Bonus Feature

After all five gladiators have been activated, the free spins bonus round is triggered. The free spins feature unfolds on a 4-row, 5-reel panel with up to 1,024 ways to win. This round begins with:

  • The number of free spins Crixus collected, plus an additional 7 initial free spins.
  • The number of sticky wilds collected by Gannicus.
  • The number of silver wilds collected by Castus.
  • The win multiplier value collected by Valeria.
  • The number of expanded wilds collected by Livia.

During the free spins, the collected power-ups are randomly added to the reels throughout the feature. Sticky wilds will stay in place for the duration of the bonus round. In the event that not all stored power-ups are used during a bonus feature, any remaining are retained and returned to the player in the base game. 'I Am Spartacus wins' do not occur during free spins.
