Of late Bodog Casino has been releasing a new online slot game at the beginning of every month. Dragons, El Luchador and Indiana Jane are some of the recent additions. Continuing with its powerful theme slot machines Bodog Casino has released two new games in May, tilted Ares and Treasure Island.

Ares bears the sub-title The Battle for Troy and is based on Greek mythology. Ares was the immortal son of Zeus and Hera, the King and Queen of the Greek pantheon of Mount Olympus. He was also the god of War. In the Trojan War he mentored the Greeks to a victory. This slot game is about the battle for Troy. Ares is an All Pays slot game. This means that there are no defined paylines, but symbols aligned left to right on any reel position result in a win. Being a war themed slot game the background music is martial.

The thematic symbols on the reels are related to Spartan war gear. The shield, the helmet and the armor pay out 1,000 coins when five appear left to right on the reels. The battle axe pays 500 coins. The lower paying symbols are grandly crafted high value card symbols. The Spartan warrior is the wild symbol. It appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4. In the animation he can be seen engaged in battle. The Trojan Horse is the scatter symbol. This was the key to the Trojan War. A band of Greek soldiers were able to enter Troy concealed in the hollow wooden horse and open the gates of the city from within. This sealed the fate of the Trojans.

Three or more scatter symbols trigger the Trojan Horse Bonus Game. 15 Greek shields appear on the second screen. The player chooses shields and collects bonus prizes. If the player chooses a shield that says Collect, the bonus game is over and he will be awarded the bonus credits accumulated thus far. If the player chooses a shield that says Win All, then he will be awarded all the prizes from the remaining shields in addition to prizes already won. The player will also gain entry into the city of Troy. In Troy, helmets will be displayed on the screen. The player will pick helmets and accumulate bonus prizes until he reveals a Collect.

The other interesting feature in Ares is that it offers a random progressive jackpot. This jackpot can be hit after any spin without any specific combination of symbols appearing on the reels. The total bet per spin varies from 0.25 credits to 125 credits. The payout table specifies the payouts for the minimum total bet. For higher bets the payouts are proportionately enhanced. Ares can be played in Real Money or Practice mode at Bodog Casino. Bodog Casino is licensed in the jurisdiction of Antigua and Barbuda.
