Columbus Deluxe Video Slot
Powered by Novomatic, the Columbus Deluxe slot machine is based on the renowned overseas voyage by Columbus the Italian explorer who discovered America on his first voyage that was bankrolled by Isabella, the Queen of Spain at that time. This slot follows Columbus the original, based on the same storyline and featuring the same historical characters.
This 5-reel, 10-payline slot game gives players a chance to experience Columbus’ voyages firsthand. When compared to the original Columbus slot machine, of which this game is a sequel, we think Novomatic did a fantastic job upgrading this game to appeal to more players.
Discover the New World
Players will embark on an adventurous journey when they spin the reels of Columbus Deluxe, which is an updated version of one of the original slot games based on Columbus’s expedition to the new world. Fans of the first slot will appreciate the updated graphics, features, and one additional payline. The symbols featured in Columbus Deluxe include Columbus himself, Queen Isabella, Gold Necklaces, s Sextant, and generic poker card values.
Simple Features
Columbus is wild and substitutes all other symbols apart from the 3 Ship scatter symbols that represent the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria, of course! Five Columbus symbols on the reels will pay the massive 50,000-coin jackpot when spin bet is maxed out at 100 coins. A gamble option is also offered after every win.
10 Free Spins up for Grabs!
You will be rewarded with 10 free spins whenever 3 ships fall on the reels in the following order: Nina on the 1st reel, Pinta on the 3rd, and Santa Maria on the 5th reel and watch the ships sail away onto the horizon. The Ship scatters transform into extra wilds in during free games. An additional 10 free spins will be retriggered each time the 3-ship sequence hits on reels 1, 3, and 5. Theirs is no cap to the maximum number of free spins that can be re-triggered.
Well-Rounded Limits
Bet limits start at 0.20 credits per line, and up to 10 lines can be selected for wager. The maximum credits per line allowed for wagering is 10.00 for a maximum bet worth 100 credits. This makes for a wide range of betting options to encompass many player limit preferences. As always, regardless of which denomination you choose, you should always remember to play responsibly whenever you're playing real money slots online.
Verdict
Columbus Deluxe is a low-medium variance slot with big wins coming in during the Free Spins. Although wins trigger quite frequently, I almost never won more than my stake in the base play. That being the case, I’d rather play higher variance slots like Book of Ra and Lord of the Ocean. I find them much more appealing and I’m also patient enough so I can wait for the big wins.
