Jason's Quest Introduction
Jason's Quest is a new online pokie from Genesis Gaming, based on the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece. The game offers players a great online gaming experience with an innovative three-level bonus with unlockable features. Theme The Greek theme is quite popular among online slots developers – but, there are some characters that we tend to see more often than others.
Zeus, Medusa and Hercules are the most popular figures that are the most prominent in Greek mythology slots. This time around, Genesis Gaming decided to place the focus on a different character – Jason from the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece. If you’re unfamiliar with Jason, he is best known as the leader of the Argonauts as they set out on the journey to find the Golden Fleece.
The material came from the winged ram with golden hair, and it was considered a sign of authority and kingship. Jason wanted the fleece in order to give him his rightful place on the throne of Iolcus. In the Jason’s Quest online pokie, the design of the game depicts this legend well. All of the typography is in a fashion that is reminiscent of ancient Greek symbols and the characters are designed in a unique art style.
Various characters from the legend are present in the reels like Jason himself and his wife Medea.
Format
There are 25 paylines in Jason’s Quest, so players can hit winning combinations in many different ways. There are also many different ways to wager, as players can bet between 1c and $10 per line – and they can choose to bet on any number of paylines.
Graduated Bonus Features
Jason’s Quest brings something completely new to the online pokie market: graduated features. These are bonus features that can be unlocked as players progress further in the game. Players can also save their progress so that they can pick up where they left of each time they play. To trigger these bonuses, players must collect gem symbols.
Only one gem is needed for the first level of the bonus. 15 are required for the second level and 30 are required for the third level:
- Level 1: in this round, Jason fights the cyclops while free spins take place
- Level 2: Jason’s takes on the Hydra, and each head that he defeats offers up cash prizes or multipliers
- Level 3: Medea fights the skeleton army and free spins occur in the background. Random cash prizes are also available
On Mobile
Jason’s Quest runs smoothly on mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones. The game features seamless animations and there is no lag when you spin the reels. The spin button and all controls are located along the side of the reels and they are visible at all times except for when the reels are spinning.
This means that the actual set of reels could stand to be a bit bigger – but players won’t really miss out on too much of the graphics quality. Another thing that players should note is that the game is only playable in landscape mode, so make sure that your auto-rotate function is turned on.
