In Greek mythology, Perseus was quite the legend. He is a brave hero and slayer of monsters responsible for the demise of the evil Medusa and for saving his friend from a mighty sea monster named Cetus. A pretty impressive guy, then. I mean, he was the son of the god Zeus, so it’s not really surprising that he ended up doing fairly well. But, for all those past heroics, it would appear that his peak has arrived here as he stars in this release from PG Soft. Legend of Perseus is a medium volatility, six-reel, five-row video slot with an RTP of 96.77% and a god-like potential maximum win of 50,000x.
Opening the game, we’re whisked back in time to a backdrop of a scene from Perseus’ epic ocean battle with a terrible sea beast. From our position stood upon the hull of a great wooden ship, huge waves crash in front of us, and monstrous tentacles reach down from the top of the screen, attempting to drag us into a deep, watery grave. This slot is set on a 6x5 grid, with up to 15,625 payways available, and the cascading reels mechanic ensures that any symbols involved in a winning sequence are removed from the grid, allowing further symbols to drop into play. Standout features include big symbols, which can be 2x2 or 3x3 sized, and multipliers ranging from between x3 to x10, whose values will be combined and applied to subsequent wins. There is also a free spins bonus to aim for, which introduces a multiplier-enhancing feature to help you deliver a fatal blow to this nasty sea creature and return home victorious.
Have you always fancied yourself a hero? Well, now could be your chance to create your own legend and etch your name into history. Check out the Legend of Perseus demo slot; it’s free to play below!

Legendary warriors are the stuff of slot developers’ dreams. Need a hero to base your new game design around? Well, there is no need for a wild imagination; just dig out the nearest history book, and you’ll have a pre-written story with characters that most modern-day storytellers could never hope to concoct. So, it's perfectly understandable that so many providers often take inspiration from this theme. PG Soft is in on the action, too, and by browsing their catalogue, you’ll see many examples of that. For instance, how about Gladiators Glory? It’s based on the legend of Maximus, a fearless warrior who overcame great odds; this is an excellent option if you’ve always wanted to check out the Colosseum. Or, if you’ve come here for the big bucks, perhaps you’d be more interested in meeting Cleopatra, the last pharaoh of Egypt? She’s the star of Secrets of Cleopatra, a high volatility, infinity reels style game, with a potential maximum win of 100,000x. Coming up, we’ll take a deeper look into the features of the Legend of Perseus, starting with the paytable.
Over at the pays section, we find the top symbol is the Monster, who will return a prize of 1x our total stake per line of six symbols. Next, it’s the White Horse, Sword & Shield, and Helmet, which all pay 0.5x, whilst the final premium symbols are the Dagger, the Vase, and the Coins, which will all return 0.3x your bet. The non-premium symbols featured are the usual Ace, King, Queen, and Jack, all paying 0.2x the full stake value for each line of six symbols matched. These values are low on the face of it, but they do take into account the large number of payways and the impact of the multipliers, which will result in higher wins.
Next, let's investigate the possible stakes in the Legend of Perseus. The options range from a low of €0.20 and rise to a high of €100.00, with plenty of bets to pick from between these values. With so many to pick from, I'm confident players of all sized budgets will be able to find a comfortable entry point if trying the slot game for real money.
Swinging our swords into the game mechanics now. Taking place on a six-reel grid, with a possible five-row positions on each, there are up to 15,625 payways available on Legend of Perseus. The big symbols featured in this game will reduce this number of ways as they only count as one symbol despite occupying several grid positions. There are no fixed paylines as such; just matching any symbol across a minimum of three-reel positions from left to right, commencing on the leftmost reel, will result in a win. As per the familiar cascading reels mechanic, any symbols involved in a win will be removed from the grid, creating space for further symbols to drop into play from the top of the reels.
During any spin, big symbols the size of either 2x2 or 3x3 grid positions may appear on the reels. These symbols will always have a multiplier value attached to them, which can range from x3 to x10. The multiplier value of any big symbol that is involved in a win will be collected and displayed at the top of the screen. Any subsequent wins that occur during that spin will be multiplied by the value of this accumulated multiplier.
Landing four scatter symbols on the screen during any single spin will trigger the free spins feature, awarding ten free spins. Any additional scatter symbols that land will award a further two starting spins.
The bonus round is very similar to the base game, but the enhancing feature is that the value of any multipliers collected from the big symbols will be accumulated and held between spins, offering the opportunity to grow it to a large number. The value of the current multiplier will be applied to the value of any wins that occur after the completion of each spin. The free spins feature can be fully re-triggered by landing at least four scatter symbols during any one spin in the bonus round.
The legendary story of Perseus has been well delivered in slot form here. The graphics and animations are bold and detailed, and the gameplay is smooth and rewarding. The high maximum win of 50,000x and the usual generous RTP of a PG Soft game ensure plenty of base game hits, frequent bonuses, and the opportunity of a jackpot win.
The free spins feature is very similar to the main game, and ideally, I’d like to have seen some additional features here, but the multiplier that holds between spins definitely helps raise the excitement levels. The use of big symbols is an overall positive from me, but it's not ideal that they are only valued as one symbol despite taking up significant space on the grid, which reduces the number of payways the more you have land on the reels.
