On April 12th, 2023, RTG-powered online casinos introduced a new slot machine called Mighty Drums.

The game’s theme is Asian treasures, and players spin the reels to try to win the random jackpot or up to 50,000 times their wager on a winning spin.

Modeling a Slot

The Mighty Drums slot machine is played on a conventional 53 gameboard with 5 reels, 3 rows, and 243 ways to win.

The average win for players is 96.00% and the variation is LOW.

Players searching for low-wagering online slots will find this game to their liking, since the smallest bet is just $0.08 when no gold symbols are selected, and the highest bet is just $8.80 when all gold symbols are selected.

Mighty Drums has the appearance and feel of a generic Asian-themed slot machine, with lots of red, dragons, Feng Shui money, and other symbols.

RTG uses a unified menu and navigation structure because it is efficient, user-friendly, and effective.

We didn’t notice that the left golden symbols were clickable until we read about it in the slot’s description and gave it a try ourselves.

As you can see, we have deselected the icons on the left, and as expected, the corresponding jackpot option in the upper right corner has become gray and is no longer selectable.

All jackpots can only be won if the appropriate symbols are activated.

As can be seen, the maximum bet drops as well, to 0.80$ for just 1 activated symbol.

Slot Functions

Only present on reel 3, the multiplier can replace any icons except scatters and wilds. When included in a winning combination, this icon can increase the payout by as much as five times, provided that the appropriate golden symbols are also present.

When three or more scatters appear, you’ll win 12 free games at this online slot machine. In those spins, the lower-value symbols (the ones from 9 to A) won’t show up, improving your odds of hitting a jackpot. It is possible to reactivate this function.

The rotations begin instantly and will pause the Autoplay if it is set to infinity.

The Jackpot Pick Feature is activated at random and presents the player with a choice of 12 gold coins. Each of the four jackpots is represented by one of four God Symbols that are revealed when a coin is pressed. When three of the same gods show up, the prize for that combination is paid out. Be aware that if the player has set Autoplay, the game will chosen at random.

We spun for a couple hundred times before we were able to activate this function again. The game automatically chose our moves the first time around thanks to the Autoplay feature. It was good to win the modest jackpot. We were able to land the mini by hand picking the symbols.

Whether or not the game chooses it makes no difference in the end because it’s all random. Do not activate this function while Autoplay is on if making your own choices is something you prefer.

Verdict

The RTG online slot game, Mighty Drums, was introduced on April 12th, 2023, and is a nice addition to the RTG repertoire.

All paid spins can be multiplied by up to five times their original value, and there are random jackpots and free spins features, too.

For an Asian-themed slot, the visuals and sound are rather nice, and navigation is straightforward.
