Crystal Odyssey Slot Review

Crystal Odyssey is a gems and jewels themed online slot machine from Novomatic with a dazzling design. This 4-reel, 5-payline slot game takes you on a star-studded adventure as you try to locate the mega free spins, wilds and big payouts. There is an additional feature packed into what seems to be a basic game – a win both ways feature, this allows you to win from left to right and right to left.

Placing your bets can be done for as little as 40 coins, but if you are here for the big cash, you can stake as much as 10,000 coins to win the most from the slot machine. Now, in terms of cash value, those 40 and 10,000 coin values are equivalent to 0.40 and 100.00 – so it won’t cost you the earth to play.

Dazzle Me

Crystal Odyssey slot game has a very strong likening to the Starburst slot machine from NetEnt – both are set in the furthest reaches of galaxy and offer a stunning 3D design with dazzling gemstones. Now, where Crystal Odyssey differs is the design of the reels – there are 4 reels with 3 symbols on each reel. Paylines are stamped to the left and right of the reels via red, blue, yellow, orange and purple gemstones.

The 3D symbols on the reels glisten as they spin into place, these are; diamonds, citrine, ruby, amber, emerald, amethyst, sapphire, wild growing crystals and the Crystal Odyssey logo. You gaming screen is uncluttered and allows you to keep track of your bankroll and current bets via the lower of the screen. The paylines are fixed, this means you have to play all 5 in every spin, but you can adjust your bet level to suit your bankroll accordingly.

Glittering Wins

There are some great cash values available, no matter what your size of budget – those playing minimum stakes of 40 coins can win as much as 20,000 coins, but increase your stakes to 10,000 coins and you can win 5,000,000 coins for your efforts. Land a payline full of diamonds and the cash value that reflects your bet will be automatically added to your bankroll.

You will find a handful of symbols to this slot game, so the highest value symbols are; amber – this offers as much as 400,000 coins. Sapphires offer up to 200,000 coins whilst rubies and citrine offer a max of 80,000 coins. The two remaining symbols; amethyst and emeralds off up to 40,000 coins.

Feature Bling

Okay, so you won’t find the best selection of slot bonus features packed into the Crystal Odyssey slot machine, but what you will find has the potential to return some eye-watering amounts of cash. The wild growing colourful crystals are your wild – these substitute for all other symbols bar scatter to help create winning combinations. Wilds only appear on the fourth reel.

Scatters are the Crystal Odyssey logo – 3 of these bad boys are going to trigger 10 free spins, while 20 free spins will be triggered should you land 4 of the symbols. During your free spins round, the fourth reel will be fully wild with stacked wild symbols, and this obviously increases your chances of hitting a winning combination drastically.

Gem Slots

If you love to be dazzled by online slot machines, you will love Da Vinci Diamonds from IGT. The 5-reel, 20-payline slot features tumbling reels and big cash – so when you hit a winning combination, those symbols will vanish and more will fall into their place to hopefully trigger more wins over and over again. Head back to the renaissance period and indulge in some artistically good fun from as little as 1.00 a spin.

On an Odyssey

Crystal Odyssey is a medium to high variance slot game that requires some playing before it offers up its riches. The design and feel of the game is superb as the reels come to life as you spin. Big cash can be accumulated during free spins, thanks to the locked wilds on the 4th reel. When we played, the wins didn’t fall often on the reels, so you will either have to bet small stakes to preserve your small bankroll, or you will have to have a big bankroll that can take long periods of losses. You have the potential to unlock up to 5,000,000 coins which is big bucks but only if you are brave with your stakes.
