Pragmatic Play has released a very cool new slot game, John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure.
John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure uses an adventure and treasure hunter theme with standard symbols, animals, torches and more.
This game comes with up to 7776 ways. Each spin between 3 and 6 symbols appear on each of the 5 reels, meaning that any spin can have between 243 and 7776 ways.
Wild symbols only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4.
Free spins feature

Verdict
Maybe you might have noticed, or maybe you don’t know the following game, but John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure is almost an exact clone of Montezuma by Williams Interactive. With just one change, the ways, instead of paylines on the original.
Pragmatic Play isn’t the first provider to copy this type of game, Play’n Go also released Legacy of Egypt, which also features this type of free spins feature.
Of course, when types of games are copied, they must be popular. And they are. So John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure is a nice addition and I like the fact that they use ways instead of paylines, up to 7776 ways even, which can be huge!
The game looks nice, plays nice and is really a game I enjoy a lot. I think a lot of players will enjoy this game.
