The standard 10, J, Q, K, and A icons all appear in Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena, displayed as stone statues that are all tinted in a different colour. A selection of different artefacts can also be seen in this release, as shown in the table below:   

Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena also comes with a scatter and a wild, shown as Cat Wilde and Rich Wilde, respectively. Wild symbols can substitute for any standard or premium symbol as part of a matching combination, while scatter icons can trigger the main bonus mode, as discussed in the upcoming section. It's also worth mentioning that wild symbols can form combinations on their own, awarding 10x, 200x, or 1,000x the stake size, in that order, should 3, 4, or 5 appear on the same payline.  

There are two bonus modes to discuss in Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena, which focus on the scatter icon and the top symbol.  

Medusa Respin

At random, when the Shield of Athena symbol appears on the board, the golden Medusa shown on the icon can become animated, signifying that this feature has been activated. The associated potential winnings for Shield of Athena combinations will be doubled, and the icon will also function as a wild for the duration of this bonus.  

All Shield of Athena icons on the board will lock in place, as will any other symbols that are being used as part of a matching combination. This process will continue until the combination on the board is not improved, at which point win evaluations will take place before players are taken back to the base game.  

Medusa's Gaze Free Spins

Should 3, 4, or 5 scatter icons land simultaneously, the main bonus mode in the Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena slot will activate, awarding players with 10, 12, or 15 free spins, in that order.   

The aforementioned Medusa Respin feature remains active throughout the duration of the round, triggering every time a Shield of Athena icon appears on the board. Players can also retrigger the free spins bonus mode by landing three or more scatter icons at the same time!
