Spin your way to the top of the totem pole with this exotically themed slot machine by Inspired Gaming. There are 5 reels and 20 paylines upon which players can hope to line up some tasty wins worth up to 10,000 credits during the base game.
Helping spinners to rack up the wins are some mystically powered symbols such as wilds and scatters which will help to complete line wins, award free spins or trigger a special bonus game. And if you play your spins right, then you could end up taking home the game's progressive jackpot kitty.
The Tale of the Totem
Discover the sacred charms of North American culture in this 5-reel slot machine that features an array of precious artefacts and tools of the indigenous Native American people. At the centre of the game's theme is, of course, the totem pole – an impressive upright structure carved out of tree trunks to symbolise various characters, figures and symbols.
According to historians, the totem pole had an important and diverse function in Native American culture and society, being used to tell famous legends, commemorate beliefs, or simple act as a welcome sign in villages. Apparently, totem poles could also have been used to make fun of someone in public – which makes us wonder what someone had to do to warrant a totem pole caricature in their likeness!?
As you would rightly expect, this Native American themed slot machine is adequately colourful and vibrant to emulate the brilliant decoration and adornments of the culture's crafts. Among the symbols, there are depictions of dream-catchers, feathered headdresses, tomahawk axes and of course totem pole characters, all of which are designed to incorporate animations when they align on the reels.
Wild Wins and Free Spins
Before we get into the prizes that this slot machine has to offer, we had better tell you about the various bonus features which will help you make the most of the spinning action. Because, there are many helpful features on offer, the first of which is delivered by the stacked totem pole symbols, which turn into wild icons whenever they appear on reels 1, 3 and 5. These wild icons will substitute for all icons which pay a line win prize, even the game's standard “Wild” symbol which represents a silhouette figure of a man riding a horse. That said, the standard “Wild” will not replace the totem pole wild icons. Should players spin the reels of Totem Treasures to reveal any part of the stacked totem symbols on the first, third and fifth reels, then they will be awarded with 10 free spins.
Win the Progressive Jackpot
The only other bonus symbol is depicted by a glowing pot of gold, and it holds the potential to offer some golden wins indeed! That is because three of these scatter symbols on the reels will activate a progressive jackpot bonus side game in which a tomahawk handle will spin to land on a jewel which represents a different total bet prize. Blue sapphires offer 30x the total bet value, green emeralds give 60x, red rubies pay 100x and white diamonds offer 250x. However, if the handle lands of the “Cash Pot” icon, then punters will take home the progressive jackpot kitty.
The Wins of the Wilderness
All wins during the base game are given as multipliers to the value of the bets placed on the winning line. Players can choose to play with anywhere between 1 single payline and all 20 paylines with the following wagering options: 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 4.00, 5.00, 10.00, 15.00, 20.00. So, with a top line bet multiplier prize of 500x, players can hope to win up to 10,000 credits in the base game. You can see all of the line bet multiplier prizes in the paytable below:
The Riches of Native America
There are many 5-reel video slots out there with stacked wilds incorporated into the gameplay, but very few of those games use the special feature to draw out the game's theme quite like Totem Treasures. Plus, this game by Inspired Gaming has plenty more to offer, such as extra wilds, free spins and even a special wheel of fortune side game. Who knows, if you spin it right, you could end up walking away with a progressive jackpot bounty.
