Spartacus Super Colossal Reels Review

WMS clearly has a thing for the epic slave rebellion story, as Spartacus Super Colossal Reels is their 4th game about the legendary slave army leader. They delivered a very solid Megaways version in late 2020, so we certainly had our hopes up for this early 2021 release as well. The original 2014 title was also pretty good, and WMS has obviously attempted to revamp that version here.

The “fancy” expanding/contracting dual reel set dynamic is more annoying than “cool” however, and all the wild features can be a bit confusing. The highest value male and female warrior symbols land stacked, but they pay only 1x and 0.75x, respectively. This means that you will need solid multiplier wilds to land bigger wins in this game, something that’s most likely to happen in the bonus round.

Spartacus Super Colossal Reels Features

There is no lack of features in this game, and we’ll start with all the different wilds. You have a regular game logo wild, as well as a gold version. These will step in for all regular symbols, and you also have 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x and 25x multiplier wilds that can land on reel 5 on the Colossal Reel set.

When you land a full stack of either of the game logo wilds on the regular reel set, they will be transferred over to the corresponding reel on the Colossal reel set.

When the golden logo wild is transferred as described above, you will be granted a Golden Wild Respin. The golden wild stack (or stacks) become sticky, and the remaining reels respin. If you land a new stack of golden wilds the process continues, and you can get up to 9 respins this way.

Hang in there, as we are not quite through with the wilds yet. Both of the logo wilds can land as mega wilds, and these are 2 symbols wide on the regular reel set. They can land on reels 1 to 4 only, and the mega wilds can also land in stacks that trigger the wild transfer feature.

Finally, we have arrived at the bonus round.

• 3 scatters gives you 10 free spins and a 2x scatter win
• 4 scatters gives you 15 free spins and a 5x scatter win
• 5 scatters gives you 20 free spins and a 20x scatter win

You can land 50x and 100x multiplier wilds in the bonus round, and all wilds that land will expand to cover the entire reel. This means that all wilds that land on the regular reel set will be transferred to the colossal reel set. You can retrigger the bonus round up to 10 times, which can give you up to 220 free spins at the very most.

The 200 Spins Spartacus Super Colossal Reels Experience

Nothing too exciting happened in the base game for us, but we had a smaller wild transfer win right before the bonus round was triggered. You can safely skip to 0:58 into the highlights video below if you just want to see the free spins play out. We will not reveal how much we won however, but you can find out for yourself by smashing that play button.

Review Summary

Just like the original game, Spartacus Super Colossal Reels also comes with a duel reel engine. However, the way the active reel set expands, while the inactive one contracts, is rather annoying. It makes you dizzy to have to refocus your eyes all the time, and we much prefer the static dual reel set from the first game.

The Wild Transfer feature is at the core of things in this follow-up title also, but WMS has “complicated” things by adding different types of wilds. You can win up to £250,000 in this volatile beast, which is a solid potential for sure. However, you really do need multipliers to make a dent in this game, as the regular symbols pay 1x, or less, for 5 on a payline.

Pros

• 5x3 & 5x12 dual reel set with stacked wilds transfer
• Mega wilds and multiplier wilds up to 25x
• Golden wild respin feature
• Bonus round with up to 100x multiplier wilds
• Win up to £250,000

Cons

• Very annoying expanding/contracting dual reel set mechanics

If you enjoy Spartacus Super Colossal Reels you should also try:

Spartacus Gladiator of Rome - is the volatile predecessor title this revamped version is based upon. Released back in 2014, you will benefit from dual reel stacked wild transfers to the Colossal reel. The bonus round is the big highlight here too, and you can win up to 4,000x your stake.

Spartacus Megaways - was released late in 2020, and a lucky Brit has already won £146,170 from a £20 spin (that’s 7,308.5x). You will benefit from up to 1,000,000 win ways here, and payouts up to 12,500x can be landed.

Spartacus Call to Arms - is a more unknown follow-up game from WMS, and it comes with special reels multiplier symbols. You can also land wilds on the special reels, and these will then transfer to the regular reel set. There is a bonus round to look forward to as well, and payouts up £250,000 can be landed here too.
