ABOUT THE BEAT THE BEAST: QUETZALCOATLS TRIAL SLOT 

The Beat the Beast Quetzalcoatl's trial slot is the fourth game in Thunderkick’s Beat the Beast series. For this installment, the software provider focused on the mesoAmerican culture, with the Quetzalcoatl,  a feathered serpent god from Aztec mythology as the central character. 

The Aztec serpent deity is considered the guardian of riches and wisdom, a perfectly fitting character for the vibrant game. The game is set deep in the heart of the Aztec jungle, with lush jungle plants flanking the reels. 

The reel symbols are in the form of intricate stone carvings, and you can catch a glimpse of the towering Aztec temple rising high into the clouds in the distance. The game is brought to life with an epic soundtrack featuring rhythmic drums and mystical flutes, perfectly matching the adventurous theme. 

GAMEPLAY 

WAGER

The Beat the Beast: Quetzalcoatl's Trial Slot features a classic five-by-three reel setup with nine paylines. Winning combinations are formed by landing matching symbols on adjacent reels of a pay line starting from the leftmost reel. The minimum wage in this game is £0.10 per spin which makes it suitable for players at all budget levels. 

SYMBOLS

Beat the Beast: Quetzalcoatl's Trial game includes low, mids and high-paying symbols. The low-paying symbols are represented by 10 to A card royals. The  10, J, and Q symbols pay 10x for a five-symbol combination. The K card pays 12.5x for the same combination while the A Card pays 15x. 

The mids and high paying symbols are the themed artifacts inspired by the Aztec culture. They include a cup, axe, crown, and golden Quetzalcoatl statue. These symbols pay between 25x and 50x your bet amount for a five-of-a-kind win. The most valuable regular symbol in this game is the colorful face of the Quetzalcoatl god with red, blue, and yellow feathers on its head. It pays 250x your stake amount for a five-symbol combination. 

The Golden Quetzalcoatl emblem serves as both a Wild and a Scatter symbol. There’s also a unique wild symbol represented by an emerald letter W. Both symbols award a win of 250x if you get five on a pay line, but the Scatter pays up to 200x for five symbols anywhere on the reels. 

SPECIAL FEATURES 

There are two Wild symbols in Beat the Beast Quetzalcoatl's Trial. There’s a standard Wild symbol which is the emerald letter W. The Golden Quetzalcoatl emblem also acts as both a Wild and a Scatter symbol. As Wilds, these symbols will substitute for any of the regular symbols. Having two Wilds in the game increases the chances of forming winning combinations.

The regular Wild symbol also serves an extra function during the bonus round. The bonus game consists of five levels and collecting Wilds is the key to leveling up. When a Wild symbol appears on the reels, a Green orb will be awarded. To level up, the collection meter must be filled with five orbs. When this happens, the cup symbols will be transformed into axe symbols and two extra spins will be awarded. 

In the next level, axe symbols will be upgraded into the next one above it in value (crown symbols) and after this, crown symbols become Quetzalcoatl Statues. In the last level of the bonus game, all the symbols will be transformed into the Quetzalcoatl symbol, which is the highest-paying symbol. 

BEAT THE BEAST: QUETZALCOATLS TRIAL FREE SPINS FEATURES

Landing there, four or five Golden Quetzalcoatl Scatters will trigger the free spins round. This icon grants payouts of 2x, 20x, and 200x your bet amount respectively along with 10 free spins. The bonus game can be retriggered by landing more Scatter symbols. 

As explained above, the symbol upgrade symbol is active during the bonus round. This will allow the low-value symbols to transform into higher-value icons with each Wild symbol collected.

Existing players can also claim free spins through deposit bonuses, loyalty rewards, or seasonal promotions organized by the casino. For these, the number of free spins granted will depend on the player’s deposit or how active they are in the casino.
