Lost Relics Slot Review: Uncover the Treasures & Game Mechanics
NetEnt released a lot of slots in 2018 — many of which have killer soundtracks and very cool movie-like visuals. Lost Relics is one of these games as it really brings to mind adventure movie blockbusters such as the Indiana Jones and the Tomb Raider series.
Lost Relics came out in May 2018. There are 5 reels and 5 rows in this game that takes you on an archaeological adventure to a tomb-like environment. On your screen, you see a tiled floor, a compass-like scatter puzzle and a gentle bonfire. No normal paylines are present since the game follows in the footsteps of games such as Emoji Planet, Aloha Cluster Pays, and Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays. All in all, with Lost Relics, you are faced with a rather cozy treasure hunting atmosphere, even if you never know what ancient traps and perils might lurk in the shadows, ready to claim your life.

Lost Relics Clusters
As with some other NetEnt games listed above, Lost Relics does not feature any paylines whatsoever. Instead, your goal is to form clusters of at least 6 symbols. This might not always be easy, however, as this is a rather volatile slot. The wins can sometimes be rare, but to balance things out, most successful hits will grant you major prizes. Much like with real treasure hunting.
Lost Relics Random Features
There are three different random features that could trigger when you are playing the base game. Sometimes the tiled floor will crack and reveal 1 to 5 instances of the three random features. Firstly, there is the Coin Win feature that could net you 3 to 150 times your stake, depending on your luck and the amount of symbols revealed. Secondly, you could get 3 to 15 extra wilds. And finally, the third option could give you an extra scatter to aid you in getting your hands on the game’s highly sought-after free spins.
Lost Relics Free Spins
If you manage to land three scatters on your screen, you are in for a treat. With these free spins, there will be a hidden treasure chest under the floor tiles. The way that you get your hands on the treasure is through forming a cluster on top of the chest, probably simulating the act of actually finding the right place to dig. The chest could then reveal anything from additional free spins to coin wins and even sticky wilds. Suffice to say, you pretty much feel like Indiana Jones or Lara Croft when walking away with some great treasures of your own.
Slotsia’s Review
By modern standards, Lost Relics may not be the most visually appealing slot on the market and this may well be a deal breaker for some players. However, as you would expect from any NetEnt release, the mechanics are enjoyable and there are plenty of features to enjoy.
