Overall Impression
Quetzalcoatls Trial is a decent enough addition to the Beat the Beast series. The max win and high volatility gives the potential for some very high paying bonuses. However the base game could be seen as a little dull and it’s all about landing the free spins round, which is where this slot shines. The success of Pink Elephants 2 which has the same bonus feature suggests that Quetzalcoatls Trial may well get a fair amount of playtime from slots fans.

Bonus Features
Beat the Beast: Quetzalcoatls Trial revolves around landing 3 or more Scatters to trigger the bonus feature free spins. 10 is the max free spins you can start with but you can retrigger them during the bonus. 3 Scatters pays 2x, whilst 4 pays 20x and 5 pay out a very decent 200x, so it’s definitely worth landing extra Scatters even if it doesn’t initially up the number of free spins you’ll get to play with.
The bonus game has 5 levels which you will hopefully work your way up. You do this by collecting the green ‘W” symbols which are introduced as the Wilds during this round. Each 5 of these symbols you collect will give you 2 extra free spins and remove the lowest paying premium symbol, substituting it with the next premium symbol. If you can reach level 5 you will have all premium symbol removed except for Quetzalcoatls himself.
