Treasures of Rome (Swintt) Review

With the Treasures of Rome slot, studio Swintt returns back to ancient times, taking players to explore the posh aristocratic life of the great Roman Empire. The game utilizes the branded Mystery Diamonds mechanics, giving players an opportunity to score massive wins via a huge number of modifiers and bonus features.

On the outside, Treasures of Rome actually manages to stand out from the pile of Roman-themed games. Instead of different weaponry and warriors, you see somewhat of a Roman elite on the reels, while the backdrop gives us a view of a gorgeous sunset as opposed to commonly seen battlefields in slots with an ancient Rome theme. As for the graphical aspect, don’t expect anything extraordinary here. The visuals are quite mid, albeit still not that bad, and so are the animations and sounds. Overall, everything’s pretty average.

The same, however, cannot be said about the game’s math, which is kinda awkward. First, Treasures of Rome comes with disgusting RTP ranges, with all four possible values being way lower than average.

Treasures of Rome Slot Features

The slot plays out across a standard 5-reel, 3-row layout, producing 30 ways to play on each spin. That’s where 8 regular symbols appear, creating winning combinations when at least 3 of the same kind land adjacently on the reels starting from the leftmost. The symbols are split into two categories, including four lower-paying card ranks and four premiums, which in ascending order are harps, vases, a noble lady, and a Roman aristocrat living his best life, laughing out loud with a headdress of grapes while holding a wine glass in his hand.

Combinations of five low symbols are worth 1x your bet, and the premiums pay from 1.5x to 3x your bet for five-of-a-kind.

The symbols you should look out for are Mystery Diamonds, available only on reels 2 and 4. Whenever one lands, it reveals up to three colored gems, which, in turn, are added to the respective meter. When three of the same kind are collected, the corresponding respin feature gets activated:

• Random Wild (green gems) - adds from 5 to 10 Wild symbols to random positions on the reels.
• 2x Wild (blue gems) - all Wild symbols on the reels acquire a Multiplier of 2x, doubling all wins they take part in. Unfortunately, they cannot multiply each other.
• Expand Reels - doubles the number of rows, expanding the reels to 5x6, and therefore increases the number of win ways to 75.

What’s most interesting is that different gems can be collected on the same spin, so there’s a chance that two features can be triggered simultaneously. In that case, a respin feature with combined modifiers is played!

The odds of getting combined respins are much higher in the Free Spins bonus that is activated by landing 3 or more Scatter symbols anywhere in view during the base game. If 3, 4, or 5 Scatters appear, players receive 8, 10, or 12 spins respectively.

In the free games, Mystery Diamonds reveal only up to 2 colored gems instead of 3 in the base game, but the major difference is that only one gem is needed to activate the respin feature. Finally, free spins can be extended.

In true Swintt’s fashion, there’s obviously a Gamble feature included as well. The gamble is offered to players after each winning base spin, and it allows players to increase their winnings. It’s a simple card mini-game where the point is to guess the color of the next drawn card. Guess correctly, win will be doubled. After a successful gamble, you can either go on and gamble again or collect your winnings. Should you guess wrong, however, all winnings will be lost.
