Jewel of Arabia is one of IGT's land based pokies. With an Arabian theme, it has 5 reels, 20 paylines, a wild symbol, scatter and offers free spins.
After wielding his sword for ten long years in the Trojan War, you can understand how badly Odysseus wanted to be reunited with his loyal wife, Penelope, and his son, Telemachos, back in Ithaca.
Unfortunately for the leader of the Kephallenians, the journey home would not be a short one as sailing back to Ithaca would take another ten years, bringing his total time away from his beautiful family to twenty years in all. As if dealing with the haphazard conditions wasn’t enough, the journey was made even more difficult by sirens of the sea attempting to get their claws on him.
The combination of time away from his wife and how beautiful the sirens are means Odysseus faces a very tempting proposition, however your role in the Golden Odyssey video slot is to ensure he resists temptation and returns home with his marriage intact.
Loyalty and Temptation
This epic tale of loyalty and temptation plays out across 5 reels with 40 adjustable paylines in place. While you can play for free with no download needed, the stakes will tempt you to set sail and play for real money as they range from a low limit of 40p up to a maximum of £400.
A ten-year journey on board a sailing ship while resisting the seductive offers of beautiful sirens would usually mean a very dull and boring experience, however High 5 Games have included several bonus features to ensure that time flies by.
This includes both Wild and Stacked Wild symbols, Scatter wins worth 20x your stake, Tumbling Reels (also known as Cascading Reels) which can see you win multiple times from a single spin, Split Symbols that enable you to create ten-of-a-kind combinations for up to 5,000 coins and there is also a thrilling Free Games feature.

Unwavering Love for Penelope
Idolised for his heroic efforts during the Trojan War, Odysseus has plenty of female admirers during the ten-year journey home so you’ll have to be a good wingman and help him steer clear of temptation, although hopefully he displays unwavering love for Penelope and doesn’t require much assistance.
The main protagonist of this Mediterranean adventure, Odysseus, leads the way as the highest-paying symbol on the pay table as helping him resist his red-blooded urges will see you rewarded with up to 5,000 coins. He and the other two characters who feature on the reels, two stunning sirens of the sea, can appear as Split Symbols for ten-of-a-kind wins.
Speaking of the sirens, helping him repel the seductive actions of the raven-haired siren wearing a lavish headdress will see you rewarded with up to 1,000 coins while you can secure up to 750 coins for ensuring he declines the advances of the wine drinking brunette who flutters her eyelashes in his direction throughout the journey across choppy waters.
I usually berate the inclusion of playing card symbols in online slots but they are welcome here to pass the time with Aces being worth up to 200 coins, Kings valued at up to 150 coins, Queens help secure up to 125 coins while Jacks and 10s are worth a maximum of 100 coins, plus there are a couple of special symbols to keep an eye out for.
The Wild symbol, which can only appear on the second, third and fourth reels, is represented by the Golden Odyssey logo. Not only can this substitute for all symbols aside from the Scatter, which is key to triggering the Free Games feature, it counts as two for any of the three character symbols.

Conquer with Free Games
Just as Odysseus conquered in battle during the Trojan War, you’ll be able to conquer the reels of this free Golden Odyssey slots game whenever you land a trio of Scatter symbols across the first, second and third reels.

This combination of symbols triggers the Free Games feature which sees you randomly armed with between 6 and 16 free games to inflict as much damage as possible and slay your way to victory. Despite not being able to retrigger the feature, an alternate set of reels comes into play which sees the Scatter symbol replaced by an additional Wild, therefore you should find yourself enjoying emphatic wins that Odysseus would have been proud of.

Golden Odyssey Slot Machines
While the generic sounds, which have been used in so many other online slots developed by High 5 Games, are most disappointing and a unique soundtrack befitting of the epic storyline would have brought the game to life, Golden Odyssey is certainly one of their best releases to date.
