The OCR review

Gameplay

Inca’s treasure is a great Inca-themed online slot from an up-and-coming studio in Tom Horn Gaming. Tom Horn is known for bringing innovation and exquisite detail to their online slots games and, while still a simple game at its heart, Inca’s Treasure is no different.

Set in the jungle-surrounded Andes Mountains, stone pyramid temple in the background, Inca’s Treasure features all the best Inca-inspired artwork that Tom Horn’s talented design team can bring. From the Inca motifs on the royals to the warriors, even the reel border itself, Inca’s Treasure immerses players in the look and feel of this legendary culture.

The 5×3, 20-payline online slot is a pleasure to play with smooth movements and exquisite artwork. There is a great bonus game in the Inca’s Treasure, a pick and win game.

With an RTP of 96%, low volatility, and a max win of 117.2x the bet, Inca’s Treasure may just be rich enough to unlock your hidden explorer.

It’s a great online slot that has echoes of the usual Aztec or Maya influenced games but brings a different feel with its Inca stylings.

Definitely worth a spin or two in the OCR opinion.

Symbols

The Inca theme sets Inca’s Treasure apart from the usual Aztec or Maya games even though some of the stylistic trappings do seem familiar. This is most evident in the artwork on the symbols, where llamas and warriors and cultural objects abound. Even the low paying royals have a distinct Inca flair to them.

Symbols from lowest paying to highest: 9, 10 (same value); J; Q (same value); K; A (same value); Pan Pipes; Jar; Gold Idol; Llama; Inca Warrior.

The Inca Priest is the Wild while the Inca King is the Extra Wild. Wilds substitute for all paying symbols except Scatters.

Inti, the Sun God, is the Scatter and unlocks the bonus Free Spins and Multipliers game.

Graphics

Tom Horn Gaming have exquisite attention to detail, and it shows in Inca’s Treasure. Graphics are crisp and high quality. Symbols are appropriate and rendered beautifully. Even the backgrounds are an amazing ode to the mysterious Inca Empire. One of the highlights of Inca’s Treasure is unlocking the bonus game and getting to see into the treasure vault with all its gold- and jewel-encrusted statues and totems.

Amazing artwork and exceptional design.

Sound

The soundtrack to Inca’s Treasure is very understated and similar to a lot of similar games. Pan pipes and mysterious drumbeats are the order of the day. Not especially surprising but theme appropriate.

Bonuses and extras

Inca’s Treasure has Wilds and Extra Wilds but only one real bonus feature in the Inca’s Treasure that is unlocked through the Scatter symbols. Once in, players get to play a Pick a Gold Brick game to reveal Free Spins and Multipliers.

Wilds

Wilds substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter.

Extra Wilds

Extra Wilds are unlocked during Free Spins and substitute for all symbols. Any win with Extra Wilds is doubled.

Inca’s Treasure Bonus

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Sun Scatters will trigger the Inca’s Treasure bonus game. This is a two-part game. Players will first choose from a stack of gold bricks to reveal how many Free Spins they win and also what their multiplier will be. Players are then kept in the treasure room to play through their Free Spins.
