Archangels Salvation Slot Machine

Pros

• Great theme. The good vs evil narrative is a well-established classic and it works well on the Archangels Salvation slot.
• Fantastic special features. There has been a lot of thought put into the gameplay features on the Archangels Salvation slot machine. Players will likely enjoy the non-conventional take on bonuses here.
• Interesting game board. This isn’t your average 5×3 grid. This instantly gives the game a unique feel.

Cons

• Lacking animation considering the subject matter and the attention to detail given to the character designs. We were expecting to see a little more fire and brimstone!

Top Jackpots

The top jackpots on the Archangel Salvation slot machine are all awarded for matching six-of-a-kind of the higher value symbols along one of the one hundred win lines. We’ve listed the prizes for each symbol below:

Game Features

“Wild” Symbols

“Wild” symbols are slightly different in the Archangels Salvation slot machine. Firstly, the default size of the “Wild” symbols is 2×2. Only during the Heaven and Hell Features are stacks of “Wild” symbols and single “Wilds” present. Each size of “Wild” symbol will substitute for any other symbol other than the “Scatter”.

Hot Spot Areas

There are two separate hot spot areas in the Archangels Salvation game. One is at the bottom and one is at the top of the grid of symbols. The top one activates the Heaven Feature. Meanwhile, the bottom one will activate the Hell Feature.

The features will only be activated if a 2×2 “Wild” symbol lands in any of the hot spot areas. What’s more, during the Free Spins mode, the hot spot areas are increased to three full rows of symbols.

Heaven Feature

The Heaven Feature is activated when a 2×2 “Wild” symbol lands fully or partially in the top hot spot area.

If the 2×2 “Wild” symbol lands partially in the hot spot area, two stacks of “Wild” symbols are generated. If the 2×2 “Wild” symbol lands fully, four stacks of “Wild” symbols are generated.

Hell Feature

The Hell Feature is activated when a 2×2 “Wild” symbol lands fully or partially in the bottom hot spot area. The number of single “Wild” symbols generated is either eight or 16. Like in the hell feature, the larger number of “Wilds” is awarded for landing the “Wild” fully in the hot spot area.

Feature Reactivation

The features will be reactivated if either a stack of “Wild” symbols (or part of it), or a single “Wild” symbol lands in the hot spot area again.

Either one stack of “Wild” symbols or four single “Wild” symbols are generated for each “Wild” symbol in the hot spot area.

Free Spins

Landing three or more stacked “Scatter” symbols anywhere on the reels will activate the Free Spins mode. The “Scatter” symbols are two-stacked, meaning they occupy two positions on the reels. We’ve listed the number of Free Spins awarded for different numbers of “Scatter” symbols below:

• Three “Scatters” = 10 Free Spins.
• Four “Scatters” = 15 Free Spins.
• Five “Scatters” = 20 Free Spins.
• Six “Scatters” = 25 Free Spins.

Regular Symbols

In addition to the symbols that award the highest jackpots, there are some that pay smaller prizes. Again, we’ve listed the pay-outs for hitting six-of-a-kind of each below:

• Diamond, Heart, Club, Spade = 30x the line bet.

Betting Limits

The number of win lines on the Archangels Salvation slot machine is fixed at 100. However, in terms of betting limits, the game plays like there are 40. This means that players can only alter the number of coins bet on each of the 40 win lines, as well as the value of each of these.

The lowest and highest coin values are 1p and 50p respectively. Meanwhile, players can bet between one and 10 coins on each of the 40 supposed win lines.

This means that with all values set to their minimum, the lowest possible bet per spin is just 40p. Meanwhile, with everything set to its maximum, the highest possible cost per spin is R4 300.

Overall Rating

Archangels Salvation is a winner in our book. The gameplay is not much like anything we’ve seen before. When you’re used to reviewing (and playing) many different slot machines, something as radically different looking is always a welcome change.

What’s more, the game has a load of innovative special features to boot. This means that it can be enjoyed on repeat visits too.

If there was one thing we could change about the game, it would be to add a bit more creativity in the animation. It feels like a bit of a waste to have such stunningly designed characters who don’t interact with one another during the game– just a suggestion, NetEnt.
