ABOUT THE GAME
Here's what you need to know before you start playing Rome: The Golden Age slot online.

In order to play the Rome: The Golden Age title, you must first set your bet level by clicking the coin symbol beside. The minimum wager in this slot stands at €0.10, whereas the max. wager is €10.00, or currency equivalent.
Once you've set your current coin value, you can go ahead and spin the reels! Keep in mind that the amount you net will be proportional to your stake value.
STEP 2: LEARN THE SYMBOLS
The Rome: The Golden Age title includes these symbols: 10 through ace, swords, helmets, rings, a phoenix, a tiger and a Wild, which substitutes for other symbols. There are also Scatters, Golden Age symbols and a Rome symbol, the purpose of which we'll explain in the following section.
STEP 3: CHECK OUT THE SPECIAL FEATURES
Here's what you need to know about the game's important bonus features.
WILD SUBSTITUTIONS
This feature kicks in whenever a Golden Age symbol lands, which makes said frames turn into a golden frame. Whenever Golden Age symbols land, they may make way for a Rome Symbol pop!
Rome symbols turn Wild on the next spin and they also turn adjacent positions into Wild symbols. The Wilds' active frames are removed if they are used to complete combinations.
FREE SPINS ROUND
Before getting into the Free Spins feature, let's first discuss the progressive Free Spins multiplier. Whenever you land Golden Age symbols, points ranging from one to four are allocated to your progress bar. Once you reach 200 points, you will receive increasing multipliers, but in the Free Spins mode and not the main game. The Free Spins multiplier increases from 1x to 1,000x!
To trigger free spins, three Scatters are required on reels two, three and four. Before the free spins begin, every unlocked position (that doesn't have an active frame) sticks to the reels and takes a random number of values ranging from 0.5x to 50x.
During free spins, remaining empty positions spin individually and only Rome symbols are locked in place. The round starts with three free spins, which reset whenever new symbols land.
PLAY ROME: THE GOLDEN AGE DEMO
How could we close off this game review without a mention of the demo mode? As always, we recommend starting to play the slot's demo before trying some spins with your own money. If you're not sure what demos are, stick around!
The demo mode, as well as other NetEnt slots, is a gaming mode available in all the top casinos that includes all the same features and mechanics you can expect when digging into the actual gameplay.
The only difference is that you won’t be able to bag real cash prizes when you try demos. The video slot provider allocates demo players a virtual money bankroll to spin this title for free. Although the demo offers the same payout as the real thing, players won’t be able to grab any of the winnings they earn in the demo.
Remember that there may be registration required to take the demo version for a spin. Also, depending on your jurisdiction, you may be asked to complete the verification process of your account to access the demo version. In cases where verification is not necessary, you may be able to play as a visitor without having to sign in — terms apply.
