Theme and Graphics
Who hasn't studied the Divine Comedy during their school years? Well, Cristaltec's Dante slot has decided to pay tribute to the famous literary work, offering excellent graphics inspired by the chapters dedicated to hell. On the left side of the grid, you can see a depiction of the Florentine poet holding the book and wearing the classic red tunic, along with the laurel crown with which we are used to seeing him represented in many books. The slot's background shows us the Styx, the river of blood that punishes the wrathful.
The game grid is set between finely decorated stone columns, depicting demons and damned souls: the choice is, therefore, extremely evocative. The icons on the reels are also detailed and effective. The minor symbols depict poker letters, created with an elegant and characteristic style. The major symbols, instead, represent some of the damned souls, and finally, we also find the beautiful Beatrice as the highest value symbol that pays up to 100x the base bet.
Bonus Features
Wild: the wild symbol represents the Divine Comedy itself and substitutes all other icons to help form more winning combinations. During base spins, Dante's figure can interact with the gameplay and activate his magic book. If this happens and Charon's figure appears on the game grid, he can transform up to 3 symbols on one or more reels into Wild icons.
Multipliers: the second function that can be randomly activated by Dante's character are the multipliers. These are assigned to the current spin and the next one.
Scatter and Free Spins: the game's Scatter symbol depicts a paradise access lock. Getting 3, 4, or 5 icons of this type unlocks 7 Free Spins with different bonuses. Three scatters offer chances to get the x2 multiplier on each spin, four Scatters guarantee the activation of the same multiplier for each reel spin, and finally, 5 Scatters guarantee the activation of an x5 multiplier on each reel spin. During Free Spins, moreover, the three central reels are unified and host exclusively Mega symbols, which are 3x3 in size.

Pros and Cons of Dante Slot
With the Dante slot, Cristaltec has created a game that will surely be highly appreciated by lovers of Italian literature and beyond. The graphic style used is truly engaging and the bonuses offered by the rules not only manage to significantly enliven the base spins but can also offer the possibility of obtaining substantial wins especially during Free Spins. Unfortunately, the game's weak point is the RTP, which is definitely below the average of 96% and, despite being mitigated by medium volatility, could disappoint those who are used to playing with slots that offer higher return to player values.
