Centurion Slot by Inspired Gaming – Review & Free Play

Available both online and offline, the Centurion slot to date has had more than one billion lifetime plays, but what is it that makes it so popular?

Centurion Maximum Winnus was the very first release in the series and some may say it was the foundations that led to great success for Inspired Gaming – the software provider behind this medieval-themed machine.

Featuring 5 reels and 20 win lines, Centurion delivers edge of your seat entertainment with no less than 8 different bonus elements, some of which are designed to spring up randomly during the base game. Excitement is delivered on a silver platter from as little as 20p a spin, but to be crowned victorious, you’ll need to summon the jackpot paying symbol. But it isn’t going to be easy that’s for sure!

The Centurion slot is a dashing, brave night who will do what it takes to protect the realm. The valiant nature has hailed him a hero among men. With his mighty sword and body armour fit for a king, he waits for no man! Key features include wilds and the following engaging bonuses:

• Prizes on Parade,
• Road to Rome,
• Wild Power Spins,
• Caesars Free Spins,
• Reel Modifiers,
• and multipliers.

 Centurion Slot Bets and Pays

Playing need not cost the earth, what with bets starting as low as 20p a spin. High rollers who love the thrill of the chase can splash the cash with bets of up to £500 per spin! The more you bet, the more valuable those symbols and bonus features become.

Low-value symbols, as always, are the card values of J, Q and K with pays of up to 200x each. Medium value symbols are the helmet, silver coin and coat of arms, each delivering wins of up to 300x. High-value symbols are the Colosseum and chariot paying up to 400x respectively while the game logo awards the highest pay of all; up to 500x!

Wild symbols bear no value but help achieve winning combinations where they may have been missed, by substituting for all other base game symbols (bar bonus).

Centurion Slot Features

Three or more bonus symbols kick-starts the action. A giant wheel will appear on your screen with a total of four features, which are as follows:

• Prizes on Parade: Centurion and his knights are huddled together and are waiting to be summoned into battle, but before all that, they’ve come cash to be handing out! A trio of shields will allow you to accumulate cash prizes through multipliers. You’ll start from the left with an aim of moving across to the right, where those values increase dramatically!
• Road to Rome: A board game bonus where a throw of the dice could see you accumulating epic prizes! If you manage to advance to Rome to win bigger cash!
• Wild Power Spins: Three power spins are awarded and, on each spin,, Centurion proceeds to add blocks of wilds on reels 2, 3 and 4 for big-win potential.
• Caesars Free Spins: Spin two additional wheels to discover your fate! How many free spins will you trigger? The red numbers are your spins and the purple is the accompanying multiplier!

And on top of all that you have reel modifiers which can spring into action when you least expect it! Take a gander to the lower right of the reels, can you see what looks to be a single red English rose? Take a closer look; that is no rose, it’s the tip of Centurion’s helmet and when he jumps up, he can award super bonus reels and colossal symbols (Reelus Maximum), among other features!

What’s the Verdict?

Despite its medieval, English theme, Centurion slot delivers a touch of Rome with a mighty colosseum where many a contender has witnessed the force of the chiselled-chinned warriors’ mighty sword. The excitement reaches the peak when the star of the show spring up from behind the bushes, bringing with him thrills through one of many different features. It’s easy to play, offers great win potential and is a favourite among land-based and online casino players purely for its big-win potential. Accessible across all devices, all you need is a mobile device with a reliable internet connection to take the fun of Centurion out and about with you!

The popularity of Centurion led to additional slots being released in the series and we suspect there will be more to come!

Centurion Free Spins came in 2016 delivering the same action-packed spins with added stacked symbols and increased thrills through a Fortune Bet mechanism; activating this bet doubles the size of the bonus symbols (and increases your bet by 50%).

Then, in 2020, Centurion Megaways made an appearance with its 6-reels and up to 117,649 ways to win per spin! Players can benefit from reel modifiers, mystery symbols, a bonus wheel where Prizes on Parade, Super Prizes on Parade, Caesar’s Free Spins, Super Caesar’s Free Spins, Wild Power Spins and Super Wild Power Spins all wait to spring into action.

While the themes may all be the same, the plays are anything but and it’s because of its unpredictability and random bonuses elements that make these slot games highly-sought-after.
