Platinum Lightning Deluxe Slot Review
Step into a world of Ancient Greek mythology as you see the slot machine from BGaming in between two statues. This high volatility game features 5 reels with twenty-five paylines and a 96.29% RTP. You will find amazing HD graphics along with a gamble feature, scatter wins, and a free spins bonus round. This game was released in 2018.
Introduction To Platinum Lightning Deluxe
As we said, this game features an Ancient Greek theme and sits on a 5X3 grid. I like the fact that players can try this game for low limits as well as for high stakes. The betting begins at one penny and goes up to $25.00 if you play all twenty-five paylines.
I found the graphics exciting but the music a little boring. I was expecting music that was more in line with the theme of the game. However, I was disappointed.

The three lowest paying symbols are Medusa, the Swords and Sheilds and the Gold Coin. If you land three of them, you win 5X your bet. If you land four of them, you win 10X. Land all five and win 50X.
Heracles is the next highest paying symbol, which yields you 10X if you land three, 20X if you land four, and 100X if you score five.
The Hephaestus pays out between 15x, and 150x, while Artemis pays between 20x & 200x.Themis and Atargatis have higher payouts from 25X up to 400X. Keep your eyes peeled for the Lightning Bolt, it pays 1000X if you land all five of them,
Bonus Games
If you like bonus games you are in luck. Look out for the sailing ship wild symbol as that icon replaces all other icons except the scatter and bonus symbol. It does more than help create a winning combination for you, it allows you to win up to 8,888X your wager.
The scatter symbol is Poseidon, which will yield higher payouts but if you are looking for bonus rounds, you have to score the Minotaur Bonus symbol. This activates the free spins feature, which allows you ten free spins. Also, during the bonus round, the first and fifth reels become sticky wild reels.
Besides those features, there is a gamble option. If you win, you have the chance to double down on a double for nothing card game. If you guess the right color, you win double. If you guess the wrong color, you lose everything.

Summary
Overall, I liked playing Platinum Lightning Deluxe and found the payouts to be generous. The graphics were amazing, and the overall gameplay was fantastic. I liked the bonus features like the sticky wild reels in the free spins round, and the scatter pays mechanic. The things I did not like is the soundtrack and I didn’t like how volatile the game is.
