Stone Gaze of Medusa

Stone Gaze of Medusa Demo by Stakelogic

In the myth, Medusa’s stare turns whoever meets it into stone. Stone Gaze of Medusa is the slot that puts that stare to work for the player. On its 6×5 count-pay grid, the trouble is the stray symbol that lands once or twice, far short of the eight a win needs. Power Symbols are the fix, turning to stone and destroying paying symbols that show only once, twice, or three times, depending on their level, and higher levels act first.

Power Symbols

A Power Symbol can land anywhere on the reels, and it removes only paying symbols. In this May 2024 release, Stakelogic took the stone gaze from Greek myth and gave it to the tile, which turns to stone itself before it destroys anything.

There are three levels. A first-level Power Symbol destroys the symbols on the reels that are only one of a kind. A second-level one clears the symbols on the screen that are only one or two of a kind, and a third-level one widens that to symbols that are only one, two, or three of a kind.

Whichever levels land, only paying symbols go, and the higher levels act first.

Multiplier Symbols

A Multiplier Symbol shows a value from x2 up to x1000, and that value multiplies the total win. When several land, the game sums their values before multiplying the win. Pragmatic Play’s Forge of Olympus adds its multiplier orbs together too, at 2x to 100x each, and multiplies the sequence win by the sum.

Free Spins

Four Bonus symbols, scattered anywhere, start 10 free spins, five start 15, and six start 30. The round keeps the triggering spin’s bet, while three or more Bonus symbols landing during cascades add 5 extra spins.

Multipliers work differently in the round. Each Multiplier Symbol that lands goes into a running total, and the multiplier never resets. That total multiplies the tumble win, the sum of every cascade until no new win forms, and it applies to any win later in the round. Wins are capped at 10,000x the bet, in free spins and in regular play alike.

Power Symbols are a smart fix for a crowded 6×5 screen, and in free play they’re the part worth watching. The free-spins multiplier that never resets gives the bonus a real reason to exist. The limit is the table those features work on. Eight or nine of any gem pays less than 1x, and the red shield needs 15 or more for its 50x, so the table on its own gives little until counts get big. That steep table is why Stone Gaze of Medusa scores 3.7 out of 5 here.
