Adventures Slot Review

Adventures Slot Overview

Adventures is a casino slot from BGaming that transports you to an anime-inspired fantasy land. Anime often refers to a specific cartoon and animation style originating from Japan. The first Japanese commercial anime aired in 1917, called Namakura Gatana, or “The Dull Sword,” and was entirely made in chalk. Since then, anime has become a widespread phenomenon, even on the international market, as 60% of all the world's animated television shows are said to be Japanese animations. We have seen a few other anime-inspired games released over the years, like the Starlight Princess series for example. So, let’s step into this fantasy world and see what it offers.

Adventures is a video slot from BGaming with 6 reels, 5 rows, and uses Cluster Pays, needing 4 or more symbols to form a win. The Min.bet is 0.1, and the Max.bet is 120. The game has a high RTP of 97.10%. Adventures is played at low/medium volatility and has a max win of 2,100X the bet. 

Join the Heroes party in Adventures as you take on quests to slay legendary monsters with a unique art style and big wins. The features in Adventures are Cascades, Heroes and Bosses, Dragon’s Chest, Cerberus Cash, Goblin Coin Spin, and Feature Buy (Buy Bonus).

Adventures Slot Information

The game’s unique style is reminiscent of old-school manga drawings, the Japanese version of comic books. The characters and symbols all look hand-drawn, as if they were made on paper and then scanned into the game, which gives the game a bit of a 2000s style. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it provides the game with a distinctive look, but it can put some players off, as they may prefer other styles or better graphics. The game can be enjoyed on most desktops, mobiles, and notepads. Wins are made by creating clusters of 4 or more matching symbols anywhere in the playing field. 

The game has 4 heroes, all with their own colored lower-paying and higher-paying symbols. The lower-paying symbols are the stein of beer, a bomb, a shield, and a magic orb. Creating a win by landing the max of 13 symbols of these symbols will pay 4X to 10X. The higher-paying symbols are the harp, kunai dagger, axe, and magic book. Landing 13 of these symbols creates a win that will pay out 20X to 100X the bet. Landing a win will also prepare the corresponding hero to be ready for an attack directed at the currently active monster. 

Adventures Slot Features

What is the max win in the slot Adventures?

You can win up to 2,100X the bet. 

What features are available in the slot Adventures?

The features are Cascades, Heroes and Bosses, Dragon’s Chest, Cerberus Cash, Goblin Coin Spin, and Feature Buy (Buy Bonus).

Cascades

After a winning combination of 4 or more of the same symbol is made, the cluster pays out and then disappears. Symbols fall down to fill in the positions, and new symbols appear on the reel for chances of new wins. This process is repeated until no more winning combinations are made. 

Heroes and Bosses

There are 4 heroes at the bottom right screen that are always active, and any win made will charge up the color corresponding hero to attack the current active boss. There are 3 bosses in the game, whereas only 1 can be active at a time: the Goblin, Dragon, and Cerberus. The bosses have a number of lives shown underneath their portrait, and the goal is to create wins to attack and defeat the boss before the end of the 10-spin cycle. If the boss isn’t defeated before the end of the cycle, a new boss appears with all their lives restored. However, if the boss's health has been reduced to 0, the corresponding boss feature triggers. These boss features are as follows:

Dragon = Dragon’s Chest 

Cerberus = Cerberus Cash

Goblin = Goblin Coin Spin

Dragon’s Chest

Defeating the Dragon will trigger the Dragon’s Chest feature, where you pick between several chests containing multipliers. After the chosen chest opens and reveals its multiplier, it will apply to your current bet, and the rest of the chests open to reveal their multipliers.

Cerberus Cash 

Defeating Cerberus, the demon hound will trigger Cerberus Cash, a 3-reel line feature that will spin each reel and award a random multiplier from 11X to 1,800X. After all numbers have been spun, the displayed multiplier will apply to your current bet. 

Goblin Coin Spin

Defeating the Goblin boss will award the Goblin Coin Spin, a bonus spin where only coins carrying cash prizes based on the bet and clouds can appear. After the spin, all coin values are summarized and paid out. 

Feature Buy (Buy Bonus) 

You can instantly trigger any of the boss features at any time by using the Buy Bonus button at the corner of the screen. The prize of every feature will change depending on your current bet. 

75X = Will activate the Dragon’s Chest feature

100X = Will activate the Cerberus Cash 

150X = Will activate the Goblin Coin Spin 

Adventures Slot Conclusion

BGaming are not lying with its title as the game tries to sell home the feeling of going on an epic journey with your friends to defeat monsters. The adventurous and magical soundtrack pairs well with the lighthearted fantasy setting and the colorful design choices. Anime and cartoons are such broad terms in style decisions that they give producers a creative outlet to go in any direction, as Adventure looks very different from games like Moon Princess or Twilight Princess. This gives Adventures its own charm that can skew the player base, with certain players loving the uniqueness while others may feel it is too basic or even childish to a degree. The theme itself is not anything that stands out, as it is a pretty simple fantasy theme with magic and monsters. 

The gameplay of Adventures is quite simple but fits the theme perfectly. The unique feature of fighting the monsters is fun and interactive, giving you something to strive for. The excitement and tension spikes as the end of the spin cycle gets closer, and the monster is low on lives. The boss features feel like a grand prize, as they are often the best payouts you will get in the game. But in between these boss features, there is not much going on, and we wished there was even just one extra feature that could impact the base game during the spin cycles. The stats in the game can feel a bit weird as you can continuously hit wins thanks to the low volatility and high RTP, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t hit enough to defeat the boss, feeling as if all the small wins were in vain. The excitement is relatively low at the start of the spin cycle as there are no fun features to play around and you just have to hope to land enough winning combinations to get into one of the features. This makes the game feel pretty unbalanced, as the fun comes from narrowingly defeating a boss and taking the spoils of its features, but outside of that, there’s nothing to make the base game more fun. Still, Unbalanced or not, this game can still provide entertainment, and the unique design feels like a breath of fresh air.

Adventures is a slot with an anime art style that takes you on a quest to slay monsters and reap the rewards!
