The Epic Journey

The Epic Journey slot takes you from the top of a volcano down to the centre of the world, where a whole new world awaits you. You are in a large cave, where the sea opens up before you and you can even see birds. This game has excellent graphics and serene music playing in the background. In many ways, it's more like a video game than a slot machine.

• Return rate: 96%
• Minimum bet: €0.80
• Max bet: €80
• Reels: 3x 5
• Rows: 3x 4
• Paylines: 100

The Epic Journey slot has a return rate of around 96%, which is a nice average. The game has a slightly higher than normal minimum bet of 80 cents per spin. However, this is explained by the fact that instead of the usual one field, this game has three full-size fields! The maximum bet in the game is €80 per spin.

As mentioned, the game is played on a larger than usual playing field. There are 5 reels and 4 rows on one field and 3 playing fields: one large and two smaller ones. There are up to 100 paylines in total.

The Epic Journey base game

The Epic Journey game is based on the well-known Jules Verne fairy tale, so it's no surprise that some of the game's main characters appear as symbols. Smaller wins are awarded with different coloured stones, which are presumably from the centre of the world. Bigger wins are brought home by the five travellers, with Phileas Fogg bringing home the biggest wins.

Before you start playing the game, place your desired bet. You can then choose whether you want to play the game manually or using the auto play feature. This will speed up the game quite a bit.

Since the game has three playing fields, they all rotate with a single mouse click. The largest playing field spins first, followed by the small playing field above, and the last playing field below.

Additional features

The Epic Journey comes with a whole host of extra features that can prove to be quite lucrative at best.

The first feature is Volcano Wild. If you get 2 or 3 of these volcano wilds on your reels, they will explode and spread regular wilds across all three playing fields.

If you get at least 3 bonus symbols on the reels, you will enter the bonus game. You must first click on one of the rune stones, which will reveal to you which bonus game will be activated. There are four different ones available: mushroom picking, safari free spins, fossil hunting and coin win.

The safari free spins trigger 10 free spins. There are also three different wilds that appear on all three game fields and they bring multipliers with them.

To collect mushrooms, you need to click on the mushrooms on the screen, which reveal coin wins, additional options or multipliers. You have 3 chances to click on the mushrooms.

In Fossil hunting, you have 3 rounds to collect as many shovels as possible. They reveal fossil fragments and payouts are paid depending on how many you collect.

A coin win, on the other hand, gives you a straight clean coin win.

Gameplay

While all sorts of things happen and happen in the game, it's still fun and easy to play on mobile. You can play it on your computer or on your mobile device.

If you want to play it on mobile, all you have to do is head straight to the online casino of your choice in your phone or tablet's browser. So there's no need to download a separate app. It is compatible with all Apple and Android devices.

Playing the game on mobile is smooth and seamless.

Summary

The Epic Journey slot machine is unique and innovative in many ways, and it's an invitation to play. It's very rare to see three different playing fields in a slot, but it makes for a more exciting and potentially lucrative gameplay experience. The game is also packed with great special features that increase your chances of winning. Thanks to the great extra features, the minimum bet size won't even be missed.
