Marching Legions Review

Embrace your truly warlike side and join the legendary army ranks of the Roman Empire with the brand new game Marching Legions by Relax Gaming.

Marching Legions - Slot Outlook

Relax Gaming's brainchild is visually superb. The game features cartoonish graphics and an epic soundtrack. The reels are set in a courtyard, surrounded by Roman architectural structures. The grid is a 5*3 layout with 243 betways. What is really impressive is the RTP of 98.12%, which is far beyond the industry average. However, RTP may be slightly decreased depending on activated features, but it's not going too low, taking a value of 97.13%, which is still pretty solid. The bets vary from 0.1$ to 100$ per spin, providing a nice range to choose from for all players. The game features a 25.62% hit rate and is powered by high volatile math model. The maximum payout is also kind of dramatic, as you can win up to 10,000x of the stake.

Symbol collection includes 7 regular symbols, divided by 3 low pays and 4 premiums. On the low side, there are various tokens, starting from gold as the least rewarding, and all the way up to silver and bronze.

The more valuable symbols are presented by classical attributes of ancient Rome, such as swords, wreaths, flags, and legionnaires. Surprisingly, the flag symbol is the highest paying one, with a payout of up to 3x of the bet. Though the legionnaire has a slightly lower payout of 2.5x of the stake, it from time to time lands stacked and pays for two-of-a-kind and more.

Marching Legions - Bonus Features

Unfortunately, Relax Gaming decided to omit the Wild symbol, and all the features are focused around little legionnaires. Those trigger Respins, Free Spins, and Nudges.

Marching Legions Slot - RespinsDuring both the base game and the bonus games, whenever 2 or more partial legionnaire stacks appear, there's a chance they will Nudge up or down to cover the reel entirely. However, the feature cannot be triggered if any of the marching stacks are already present on the reels.The Matching Respins feature is triggered when a full stack of legionary symbols lands. Whenever it does, it becomes a Marching Stack, in other words - Walking and Sticky, plus activates Respins. The Marching Stacks will move one position to the left at the beginning of each spin. The Respins continue up to the moment when there are no more marching legionnaires left, though, every new stack appearing on the reels immediately turns into a Marching Stack.

The Respins feature can gradually go over to Free Spins round.

After the stacks leave the reels during the Respins feature, they are collected and fill the collect meter. You have to complete all 5 levels of the collect meter in order to trigger Free Spins. That's really may sound insane, but completing 5 levels on the meter will take 330 soldier stacks. Nevertheless, once you are finished with the collect meter, the Free Spins round will start with the average bet level used during the collection.

Free Spins are played in waves, starting from the first. During the firsts wave, you will get a legionnaire stack on the rightmost reel. Same to the Respins bonus, Marching stacks move one step to the left before every spin and any new stacks landing on the grid turn into marching ones.

Every consecutive wave will start with extra stacks, and 5th and any additional waves will start with the grid fully covered by Marching legionnaires.

In order to progress to the next wave, you have to collect special symbols. Collect 3 horn symbols to trigger the next wave in Free Spins. However, those horns can only appear on reel 5, and you have to hurry since the feature ends when all the stacks march off the grid or the collection meter hasn't been filled yet.

Those who want to skip the less exciting part will be pleased with the Buy Feature. This one is handy as it takes you straight to the Free Spins round. The buy option will cost you 120x of the bet and can only be activated during the base game. One more thing is that the RTP is slightly decreased once the feature is activated, losing 1% of the payback. During the bonus the RTP clocks at 97.13%, though, it still can be considered as a high value in comparison to most modern slot games.

Marching Legions - Slot Verdict

All said and done, Marching Legions is a fun game and you'll hardly have a dull moment during the session.

However, not everything is as smooth as we'd like. The first issue concerns the features and you've probably already noticed that the game is really focused around those little legionnaires, which are the key to triggering every bonus involved. Moreover, without a single Wild this high volatility model becomes really brutal at times, and all you need to do is to hope for some little soldiers to arrive and turn the bad outcome in your favor.

Anyway, the game provides a truly unique gaming experience and it really provides a deep variety of emotions during the gameplay. As for the positive aspects, there are a lot of them. Starting with the breathtaking graphics and animations, as well as a fantastic soundtrack to keep you in the right mood, every detail in Marching Legions contributes to creating a truly immersive atmosphere. Relax Gaming, though, is helping with the RTP of 98.12%, which is for real incredible. The next thing to mention is the maximum winning potential. 10k times of the stake is definitely worth it to give Relax Gaming's title a try. The game will certainly appeal to fans of the ancient Rome of players who seek unusual design and set of special bonuses.

At long last, Marching Legions didn't manage without its pros and cons. Luckily, there are more advantages than flaws the game can offer, thus it is worth a spin or two.
