Slot Summary

In 2018, NetEnt released Lost Relics with archaeological discovery translated into rewards hidden beneath winning clusters. Its ancient-ruins setting has a mechanical purpose: a successful match can expose more than its own payout. Free spins extend that idea into uncovering chests, making the location of a win part of the treasure hunt.

How It Plays

The grid pays connected groups instead of fixed lines. Six matching symbols form the smallest paying cluster, and a larger connected group moves that symbol into a higher payout bracket.

Coin Win, Extra Wild, and Extra Scatter can be hidden beneath symbols in a winning cluster. Their effects differ: an immediate award, added substitutes, or assistance toward triggering free spins.

Bonus & Free Spins

Three scatters trigger ten free spins. During this round, winning clusters uncover positions over hidden chests; revealing those chests awards further bonuses, including extra spins, wilds, and coin wins.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (High). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.30%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (1,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
