Augustus
Grab your togas my fine fellows; we’re off on a trip to Ancient Rome in Augustus slot from Neon Valley Studios and Games Global (formerly Microgaming).
This game comes with a unique coin-collecting mechanism that I’ve heard a lot about – plus fully wild reels.
It’s time to spin for Rome on this great-looking slot!
The Graphics
The Roman reel action is set on a background of marble columns and ornate white temples, while the reels are framed with red and gold – and most certainly worthy of an emperor.
I’m a fan of the soundtrack too, the rather pompous trumpet-filled ditty that accompanies your spin: it’s very dramatic and suitably Roman.

Augustus Slot Game Play
Augustus slot is played out over five reels, three rows and 20 paylines.
The max win here is on the low side, at 1,000 times your bet, but the game has a medium variance to match – so is quite balanced.
Your premium reel symbols are made up of golden chalices, centurion’s swords, bejewelled rings, a beautiful female soldier, and the dashing Augustus himself. The beauty and August can randomly land as stacked; covering a full reel.
Meanwhile, the low-value symbols are the J, Q, K & A from the playing card deck.
The scatters are the purple and gold eagle crests with ‘Roma’ emblazoned on them. Very regal indeed.
The Bonuses
Coin Collection & Stacked Wilds
Whenever a gold coin hits the reels, it will be collected in a meter that sits above each reel of the game’s five reels.
Once two gold coins are added on top of the same reel, the wild reel feature is triggered by transforming the whole reel into a stacked wild for the next two rounds.
Free Spins
Hit three scatters on the reels and it’s bonus time!
Before the spins start, you have a choice to make; there are three options and they have different levels of volatility. Choose between:
– 3 wild reels + 2 Free Spins
– 2 wild reels + 8 Free Spins
– 1 wild reel + 25 Free Spins.
And one more thing, if you get an extra scatter during the round, you’ll be given another Free Spin.

FAQs
How do you trigger the bonus?
The scatter (Eagle Roman Shield) lands on reels 1, 3 and 5. Three will trigger a 2x scatter win and set off the bonus. You must choose between three bonus options. Pick between: 25 free spins with 1 wild reel on each spin, 8 free spins with 2 wild reels on each spin or 2 free spins with 3 wild reels on each spin.
The Monkey Verdict
Augustus slot is a solid medium volatility slot – and I like the coin collection mechanic. The ‘build your own’ Free Spins is interesting and it allows you to go hard or play a less risky bonus round. This is one of Monkey Casino’s most popular games, especially in Canada and New Zealand.
The only issue I have with this game is the maximum win – as I would have liked it a little bit higher.
