Coins of Zeus: Hold & Win is a Greek slot by Betsoft. It’s one of the many Coins slots, and truth be told, it’s a carbon copy of Coins of Christmas. The only difference the two games have is the theme, as this one is a Greek slot, while the other one is a Christmas slot. Other than that, everything stays the same: you have a 3×3 grid with 5 fixed paylines. The game also has high variance with a 96.18% RTP. You can win up to 3,600x the stake.
If you are familiar with Betsoft’s other contribution to Coins slots, you already know what you are getting with Coins of Zeus. The game delivers Wilds, the Hold & Win feature, as well as Gift of the Gods trigger for the main feature. There are no Free Spins or anything like that because the Hold & Win feature is a Respin feature.
To play the game, you will need to prepare at least $0.20 in stakes, or up to $100 per spin. The game is playable both for free and for real money at all Betsoft casinos. To learn more about the Coins of Zeus, check out the rest of the review below.
It seems that when companies find a recipe for success, they are inclined to use that recipe again. However, they usually tweak it a little, but Betsoft chose not to bother with that and went ahead and copied the entire Coins of Zeus to Coins of Christmas (or was it the other way around?).
With Coins of Zeus, we have a highly volatile math model with an RTP of 96.18% and a hit frequency of 31.07%. That means that there’s a delicate balance between frequent smaller wins and potentially bigger ones. Still, the biggest prizes don’t get too big as the maximum win capacity in the game is capped at 3,600x the stake.
The setup has a 3-reel grid with 3 rows, allowing you to win using 5 paylines in total. Betting options range from $0.20 to $100 per spin, and they are suitable for both casual players and high rollers.
But we fear casual players won’t like this one due to high variance.
The symbols in the game include low-paying gemstones that are worth 0.20x to 1x per stake.The medium-paying mythological items such as crowns, golden cups, and harps, and high-paying symbols like Pegasus pay 0.60x to 5x the stake. Finally, the game’s Wild pays 10x for 3 OAK.
There’s not much to Coins of Christmas in terms of features. There are Wilds, as well as Chests of Gold that trigger the Hold & Win Bonus feature.
Wilds in Coins of Zeus are special icons that replace all other symbols (save for Bonus symbols) on the grid. The main function of Wilds is to generate winning combos. Wilds also pay 10x for 3 OAK.
Like with Chests of Gold, the Gift of the Gods feature is a random base-game feature that boosts the chances of hitting the Hold & Win feature. When you activate it, it adds random Bonus or Zeus Bonus symbols to the grid.
The Hold & Win is the slot’s main feature. Land 3 Scatters (Bonus symbols) where at least 1 of them is a Zeus Bonus symbol. When the feature starts, you get 3 Respins. The grid spins with only Bonus Symbols, Zeus Bonus, and jackpots, and duds.
If a Respin does not bring a new special icon to the grid, the counter goes down by 1. If you land a new special symbol, the Respin counter resets to 3. The round ends when you fill the grid with symbols or run out of Respins.
Jackpot symbols in the Hold & Win feature trigger the jackpots:
The game offers a maximum win potential of 3,600x the stake.
Coins of Zeus: Hold & Win is the Greek addition to Betsoft’s “Coins of” series. There’s already a fantasy one with Coins of Alkemor, as well as an Egyptian one with Coins of Ra. There’s also a Christmas one, we already mentioned it. Now, all fans of the Greek slot genr can enjoy Coins of Zeus anywhere they want.
Is the game worthy of the players’ time and attention? Depends on the players. For all fans of the theme, the game will surely be interesting at least. It’s a highly volatile game with 3,600x wins, so that’s good. However, Betsoft fans might not like it considering it’s a carbon copy of Coins of Christmas (except the theme) so there’s little to no creativity used here.
