What we think about the Game of Thrones 243 Ways slot?
“I don’t know what’s better - the music, the 243 Ways or the free spins features!”
Is the Game of Thrones 243 Ways slot for you?
The Game of Thrones 243 Ways online slot is themed after the hit HBO TV series Game of Thrones (GOT), which is based on A Song of Ice and Fire, a fantasy novel series by Geroge R. R. Martin. Game of Thrones 243 Ways was originally developed and released by Microgaming in 2015, along with a 15-line version of the game. Currently, this licensed video slot is a Games Global exclusive.
Though it’s nearly a decade old, if you’ve never heard of this gem, you’ll discover there’s more to this GOT game than just being themed after a TV series. And when I say themed after the series, I mean everything down to the music (the show’s opening theme), the visuals (the logo and House sigils), and cutscenes taken directly from the series.
As its name suggests, this Game of Thrones slot machine has 243 Ways to Win. What this means is that any combination of three or more matching symbols - starting from the first symbol and going left to right – make a win if they appear anywhere on adjacent reels. The simpler explanation is this: there are 243 ways to create a winning combination offering chances for some good-sized payouts.
Other notable features of the Game of Thrones game include 5 reels, stacked wilds, multipliers, and 2 Scatter symbols in any position awarding a random cash prize. However, what makes the Games Global Game of Thrones 243 Ways slot so well liked by Canadian players, is its free spins feature. There are four modes you can choose from. Each represents one of the Great Houses (Baratheon, Lannister, Stark, or Targaryen) and awards a different number of spins and perks (more on this later).
Overall, the Game of Thrones 243 Ways slot machine delivers a great experience. Beyond the visual and audio aspects that pay beautiful homage to the show, the four free spins modes are good enough to appeal even to slots players who known nothing about the television series. What’s more, this medium volatility slot has a bet range starting at $0.30 up to $15, allowing it to accommodate varying bankrolls sizes and risk levels.
Still, while it does have some great features, if you’re not a Game of Thrones fan, it might not be your favourite. If it’s not, we’ve got plenty of other entertainment that’s sure to appeal. Take your pick of thousands of games ranging from slots to video poker to blackjack to live roulette online and more.
Game features
Stacked Wilds and Scatters
Stacked Wilds and Scatters can occur in both the base game and in the Free Spins feature. The Wild symbol (Game of Thrones logo) can form its own combination and can appear stacked, filing entire reels.
As for the Scatter symbol (the Iron Throne), landing 2 in any position awards a random cash prize. The Scatter pays in any position and Scatter wins are multiplied by your total bet stake.
Bottom line, both the wilds and scatters can be quite rewarding depending on where and how they land.
Free Spins
The slot’s main event – the Game of Thrones 243 Ways Free Spins feature - is triggered when 3 or more Scatter symbols result from a single spin. As soon as this occurs, a cutscene happens and then a new screen opens showing you the banners and sigils of four Great Houses of Westeros. You have the option to pick whichever one you want, and each gives you different options:
- Baratheon Free Spins – 8 free spins + 5x multiplier + 3 stack house symbols
- Lannister Free Spins: - 10 free spins + 4x multiplier + 4 stack house symbols
- Stark Free Spins - 14 free spins + 3x multiplier + 5 stack house symbols
- Targaryen Free Spins - 18 free spins + 2x multiplier + 6 stack house symbols
When I triggered the feature, I chose my favourite Great House - House Targaryen (I’m a Dany fan). That said, if you want the chance at scoring the game’s highest payout - 20,250x your stake – you’ll want to choose House Baratheon. The 5x multiplier in this free spins mode is what makes this max win possible.
