Le Zeus Demo (Hacksaw Gaming) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

You’ll often find that when a gaming studio has been around for a while, they end up with at least one slot franchise in their portfolio that goes on to bring them continued success over multiple releases. In the case of Hacksaw Gaming, one such series of games is the “Le Series,” and in today’s review, we’ll be checking out Le Zeus, a 6-reel slot with 19 fixed paylines and wins that can reach up to a maximum of 20,000x the bet.

Theme & Design

We’ve seen Hacksaw Gaming’s angry little raccoon pop up in multiple places around the world, and as the title of the game may suggest, in Le Zeus, he’s travelled back to Ancient Greece, where you’ll find him up in the clouds of Olympus, once again attempting to seek out some big wins. I think if we were to look at the overall standard of all the games to date in the “Le collection”, it would be fair to say they are all of a high level of presentation and have arguably got better as the franchise has gathered pace, so we can’t fault Hacksaw on that front at all.

If this is your first experience with this collection of games and you haven’t tried the previous releases, then don’t worry, as we have them all here at Demoslot for you to play. So, all you need to do is try out Le Bandit, Le King, Le Viking, and Le Pharaoh, and you’ll be up to speed with the series so far.

Le Zeus Gameplay & Features

Hacksaw Gaming’s Le Zeus is a 6-reel, 5-row online slot with 19 fixed paylines and an RTP of 96.26%. Standard betting options for the game begin at a minimum of €0.10 and reach up to a maximum of €100.

The main focus of the gameplay on Le Zeus is the lightning bolt mystery reveal symbol that can land anywhere on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. When this hits, all instances of it can turn into a random symbol from the paytable. If this creates a win, the mystery symbols will remain in place and a free respin will be awarded. As long as you continue to receive a win from the mystery reveal, the process will continue. Alternatively, all mystery symbols can transform into coins, where values, multipliers, or collector pots are then awarded.

Unsurprisingly, the mystery symbols play a part in all variations of the main bonus rounds, as explained below:

Bolt & Run Free Spins: Activate this bonus with 8 free spins by landing 3 scatter symbols at the same time during the base game. This bonus game keeps the base game’s mechanics, and all mystery symbols that land are sticky and remain in the same position throughout the bonus! The minimum coin value that can be won in this bonus is 1x.

Myth-Taken Identity: Activate this bonus with 8 free spins by landing 4 FS scatter symbols at the same time during the base game. When the Mystery Meter is full, a reward spin is triggered after the current free spin is complete. On a reward spin, every position on the grid will be covered by a Mystery Reel, which will only reveal Coins, Diamonds, Clover symbols, or Pots of Gold.

During the first reward spin, all types of coin symbols can land, with bronze as the minimum coin type. With each subsequent reward spin, the minimum coin type increases by one step, first bronze, then silver, and so on, removing the lower-value coin symbols each time. The minimum coin value that can land in this bonus is 1x.

Once all reveals and activations from the reward spin have been completed, the grid will reset, the Mystery Meter will return to zero, and the new minimum Coin symbol type will update for the next reward spin. The Mystery Meter will continue to fill and trigger reward spins until there are no more remaining free spins.

Hidden Epic Bonus: Gods Just Wanna Have Fun: Activate this bonus with 8 free spins by landing 5 FS scatter symbols at the same time during the base game. This Hidden Epic Bonus keeps the mechanics of the Bolt & Run bonus. In addition, reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 are filled with mystery symbols from the start! Low-paying symbols cannot land in this bonus. The minimum coin value that can land in this bonus is 5x.
