The Epic Journey Online Slot Review

Based on Jules Verne's magical sci-fi novel Journey to the Centre of the Earth, this adventurous slot from Quickspin is an intriguing, nail-biting trip through the earth's crust to its very core. With plenty of bonus games and extra special features, it's an excursion worth taking. Ready to embark on an adventure in search of video slot riches? Make sure you read this Epic Journey guide. Designed specifically for any player looking to make their first moves in this aesthetically impressive game, our review will tell you all you need to know before you ante-up.

Before we delve into the myriad of ways to win Epic Journey offers, let's look over the design. The graphics are straightforward but effective, depicting a volcano, lush vegetation and a plethora of underground dinosaurs. In an attempt to distinguish Epic Journey from other video slots, the development team at Quickspin has taken the gameplay interface and made it something special. Instead of five reels and multiple paylines all neatly arranged in a square, the software provider has created a triple panel set up. This means you'll have three sets of reels, each placed in a separated yet connected panel. From this, you'll have a total of 100 win lines divided up in the following way:

1. Reel Set 1 = 40 win lines
2. Reel Set 2 = 30 win lines
3. Reel Set 3 = 30 win lines

Like any other online slot, Epic Journey pays from left to right. But because you have 100 paylines and three panels, there are plenty more ways you can win. This makes it a truly unique spinner and potentially one of the best slot games in today's market. Next, before you can spin the sets of reels in unison, you'll need to set your bets. According to the rules of Epic Journey, play starts at £0.80 but can scale up to £80 per spin if your pockets are deep enough. Depending on the amount you bet, prizes will increase and decrease accordingly. At the lowest level, you'll bank £0.03 for matching three crystals at the minimum stake. At the top end of the payout table, five wilds have the power to unlock wins worth between 5x and 500x your bet. Of course, no epic journey would be complete without a few bonuses and this Quickspin video slot is packed them.

When it comes to special features, the Epic Journey slot machine's selection is great. In fact, much like the design, the additional ways you can win free spins, multipliers and jackpots are just as impressive.

Volcano Wild

In addition to regular wilds that substitute for all other symbols (except for scatters and other wilds) and unlock the Epic Journey slot jackpot, you can unlock the Volcano Wild bonus. By rolling two or three of the special symbols, a series of volcanos will erupt and spew out wilds. Anything the wilds touch can be turned into a win and, once the eruption has stopped, you'll have a ton of bonus money added to your balance.

Bonus Pick'em Round

Beyond the wilds, you can roll in three scatters and earn the right to choose one of three bonuses. If you uncover the Safari Free Spins bonus, you'll get ten free spins with a multiplier worth up to 5x, plus random wilds. For the Mushroom Forest bonus, you'll get to turn mystery mushrooms into money and if you go on a bonus Fossil Hunt, you'll have three spins to collect as many prizes as possible.

If you're looking for a video slot that's innovative, creative and lucrative, you'll struggle to find something better than Epic Journey. By pushing the limits of what's possible with today's casino software, the designers at Quickspin have created a real winner – for your adventurous spirit and your bankroll.
