Hercules Unleashed: Dream Drop Slot Overview

After spending some time with Hercules Unleashed: Dream Drop, it became noticeable that the game was a bit repetitive, mainly because it mostly revolves around doing the same kind of spin over and over, instead of offering a variety of features like big free spin rounds. The game seems to aim for the big Dream Drop Jackpots, with smaller spin features along the way to keep things interesting. This might sound a bit too critical though, as the spin feature is quite unique and fun. The Beast Slayer Bonus is especially cool because it gives you three chances to keep playing and doesn’t end right away if you don’t get a matching symbol or an extra symbol to make the game area bigger.

Hercules Unleashed: Dream Drop Slot Features

Re-Spins Feature

If a high-paying symbol fully covers the leftmost reel, a re-spin is triggered. A partially landing stacked symbol might shift to cover the entire reel. During the re-spin, any symbols identical to the one on the leftmost reel stick in place, while the rest spin again.

Additionally, a symbol that adds an extra row might appear, allowing reels to grow up to 10 rows. Symbols can come with multipliers (x2, x3, x4, or x5), enhancing any wins they're part of. If there are multiple multipliers in a win, they combine their values. The re-spins keep going as long as new matching or expanding symbols appear.

Dream Drop Jackpot

The Dream Drop Jackpot can start randomly before a regular spin, displaying only blank or DD symbols. Landing five DD symbols begins the Dream Drop Bonus, where you can win one of five jackpots. Each jackpot is linked to a specific reel filled with shield symbols, and filling a reel wins that jackpot.

Hercules Unleashed: Dream Drop Slot Bonus Features

Beast Slayer Bonus

If three Scatter symbols appear on the screen, the Beast Slayer Bonus will activate. This bonus begins with three re-spins and will reset to three each time more Scatters land on the grid.

Depending on whether three, four, or five scatters triggered it, the stacked symbol on the leftmost reel will be a Lion, Bull, or Hydra. In this round, these stacked symbols lock in the same spot they landed. Like the Re-spins feature, multipliers in a win multiply together. Expansion symbols can increase the grid size, by up to 10 rows.

A Collection Meter fills with each shield symbol, upgrading the stacked symbol after 10 are collected. The bonus ends when there are no more re-spins or the grid is full.

Our Verdict During our gameplay, we noticed that the bonus features triggered quite frequently, and we were particularly impressed with the Beast Slayer Bonus round, which gave us some impressive payouts.

Hercules Unleashed: Dream Drop Slot RTP & Volatility

RTP	Variable RTP	Volatility
94.00%	No	High

The return to player rate is 94% which is slightly below the average online slot game unless you are outside of the UK and can use the Bonus Buy feature which increases the RTP ever so slightly. The game's volatility is high which means less frequent but larger wins.

Our Verdict We weren’t crazy about the fact that the RTP is rather low, considering there are so many other games out there with a higher RTP, but as mentioned above, this can be improved if you choose the bonus buy option which is only available to players who don’t live in the UK.
