Step into the ancient Colosseum and battle for Grecian glory in the Legend of Athena! Amid a throng of gladiator helmets, amphoras, harps and horns, stands the proud Goddess of wisdom and warfare. Armed with her Athenian armour, she’s poised to spear straight into Attic riches! Substituting for all paying symbols, when she appears in a win line, she’ll apply 3x win multiplier. Get ready to head into the heat of battle in Legend of Athena.

Don't expect a treasure of features when playing Legend of Athena, it's not that sort of game. R7 has included just two - a multiplier wild, and a triggered round of free spins, which do work quite effectively when combined.

Our leading lady of the show makes her appearance on the Spear of Athena Wild. When this symbol participates in a win line, a multiplier of x3 is applied to the value of the payout.

The other symbol to be aware of is the crossed swords scatter, appearing on reels 1, 3, and 5. When all 3 land on the reels, 12 free Battle Spins are the prize. Pretty easy this, during Battle Spins an x3 multiplier will be applied to all combinations. If winning lines include the Spear of Athena Wild as well, the win has both multipliers applied for a total of x9. In addition, scatters appearing anywhere during Battle spins award 3 more spins to the reaming amount.

The title might allude to a legend, but we don't get much of a story here in what is a Spartan game in most regards. If you like variety or innovation, best to give Legend of Athena a pass. On the other hand, the style could very well entice players who like it straight forward. Legend of Athena is a bit like playing games of yore where the sorts of features it has were common. Sessions boil down to bashing play in the hope of landing free spins to take advantage of triple value line wins. Along the way, premiums values are quite high, augmented by those x3 wild multipliers. The basic formula has worked well enough in the past, though it's hard-pressed to make an impression when competing against vastly more complex contemporary games.
