John Hunter and the Secrets of Da Vinci's Treasure Slot Review

Da Vinci’s Treasure Slot Overview

Da Vinci’s Treasure is a new casino slot from Pragmatic Play that takes us on a journey far and wide to search for lost treasures. In 1981, the world got introduced to Dr. Henry Walton “Indiana” Jones JR. Since then, we have gotten treated to four adventures with the archaeologist, and a fifth is set to release in 2023. The reason we are discussing Indiana Jones is that John Hunter, this game’s protagonist, is clearly inspired by him, both by the looks and the slot's theme. Let’s see if Pragmatic has created an adventure worthy of the theme!

Da Vinci’s Treasure is a video slot from Pragmatic Play with 5 reels, 3 rows, and 25 paylines. Players can choose between a Min.bet of 0.25 and a Max.bet of 50. The game has a default RTP of 96.53%, but casino operators can also choose from lower RTPs: 96.01% and 95.01%. Da Vinci’s Treasure is played at high volatility and offers a max win of 48000x the bet. 

What would an epic adventure be without all the mysteries you get to reveal? Thankfully, we don’t have to find out here. The features are Wild Symbol, Scatter Symbol, Bonus Pick, Prize Picker, Map Quest, Progressive Multiplier Free Spins, and Gamble Feature.

Da Vinci’s Treasure Slot Information

The grid lies on a map, which is located on a wooden table. It’s one of those scenes you expect to see in a movie when the main characters are plotting their next move under the deck of a pirate ship. We know that Indiana Jones loves his whip, and a similar one can be seen on the right-hand side. Along with all references, the epic soundtrack also has some resemblance to that of Indiana Jones. 

You can play this game on all common mobile devices and desktops. A winning combination is created by landing 3 or more matching symbols (or 2 bags, books, or John Hunter’s) on consecutive reels within the game’s lines, starting from the leftmost reel. 

The lower-paying symbols include 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. A full line of 5 with one of these pays 4x-6x the bet. The higher-paying symbols consist of crossbow, some odd spiral antenna, backpack, book, and John Hunter. Five-of-a-kind with these pays 12x-32x the bet. The Wild symbol substitutes for other paying symbols and is an animated image of who we believe to be Leonardo Da Vinci. A scroll with some sort of code act as the Scatter symbol, which is used to trigger the Bonus Pick.  

Da Vinci’s Treasure Slot Features

What is the max win in the slot Da Vinci’s Treasure?

Theoretically, you can win up to 48000x the bet.

What features are available in the slot Da Vinci’s Treasure?

The features are Wild Symbol, Scatter Symbol, Bonus Pick, Prize Picker, Map Quest, Progressive Multiplier Free Spins, and Gamble Feature.

Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol substitutes for other paying symbols. It can land on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Scatter Symbol

The Scatter symbol can land on reels 2, 3, and 4. Landing all 3 triggers the Bonus Pick feature. 

Bonus Pick

Once the Bonus Pick is triggered, a wheel will be spun, revealing either the Prize Picker, Map Quest, or Progressive Multiplier Free Spins. 

Prize Picker

You will get to choose between three paintings, each containing a mystery cash prize. 

Map Quest

In the Map Quest feature, there are 23 steps and a wheel of fortune. The wheel consists of 6 wedges containing 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 steps, and “GAME OVER”. If you land on a number, you will move that many steps on the map. The prizes’ values increase the further you go, but you will only collect the last one you land on. The feature ends when you get to the castle or if you land on “GAME OVER”. 

Progressive Multiplier Free Spins

When entering this feature, you are awarded 12 Free Spins and a starting multiplier of 1x. After each spin, the multiplier increases by 1. If you land 3 Scatters during the Free Spins, you’ll be awarded an additional 12 spins, allowing you to progress further on the multiplier meter.

Da Vinci’s Treasure Slot Conclusion

It’s safe to say that Pragmatic managed to capture the essence of adventuring with Da Vinci’s Treasure. We instantly got drawn into the game, much because of the adventurous music and clean graphics. However, the slot sound drowned out the music a bit, so we’d actually advise you to turn it off for a more immersive experience. 

We both love and hate the fact that there are 3 different bonus games. It feels like you trigger the feature quite often, but more often than not, you’ll have to make do with the prize picker or map quest. These can net you some big wins as well, but the Free Spins is where it gets really exciting. Since the multiplier increases with each spin, you can see the potential rising, which makes for a captivating session. 

Besides all that, the game has a great RTP, so you know you’re being given a fair chance. The max win of 48.000x is enticing, but we are yet to see any win close to that, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Da Vinci’s Treasure by Pragmatic Play takes us on an Indiana Jones-inspired adventure with three different bonus games and tons of potential!
