If Jules Verne were alive today, he would surely love this slot, as it is inspired by one of his masterpieces: 20 000 leagues under the sea. Captain Nemo himself takes us along on his journey to the depths of the ocean, and he’s willing to share with us whatever lands on the reels.
Microgaming developed this bold High Volatility slot with 96.49% RTP and an adventuresome theme in 2012, adding a clever gamble feature to make it stand out from the competing games.
Expectably the Free Spins, where all wins are multiplied by 5x, are the highlight of the slot. The epic soundtrack adds even more tension to the undersea experience, and as you hit those 1024 win lines, you feel like a big wave of cash will flow your way any moment.
Take a chance and go deep with the courageous Captain Nemo, diving first for free in the DEMO version on our page. No logins are needed.
Personal testers’ opinion about Leagues of Fortune slot
We did enjoy testing this slot but can confirm that it shouldn’t be considered for completing the wagering requirements – it marked one of the poorest scores of all slot games that we have tested – just 1.01 (out of 10) index points. Another blemish traits of the Leagues of Fortune slot machine are the poor paytable and the insufficient 1024 ways games hit frequency (less than 30%).
Last but not least, the recurrence of the bonus happens statistically after 263 spins – one super high figure, which shows that the waiting will be long and frustrating, so it is useless to chase the Free Spins. Even if you are lucky enough to trigger them, it’s still no guarantee for epic wins. We reached around 51x our bet on average there, while we achieved bigger success in the base game – a juicy 1325x the total bet.
All things considered, the potential of the game is onboard (Microgaming claims) – 750 000 coins, or 15000x the total bet (via max stake), but because of the high min bet per spin (0.50 CAD) and the high volatility, requiring sizeable starting capital, we do not recommend this game to the low-rollers. At the same time, the high-rollers might also be crestfallen by the oftentimes unworthy Free Spins.

Features
- Wild Leagues of Fortune Logo – Is paid measly but appears stacked in the main game and Free Spins, ensuring big wins. Doesn’t replace the Treasure Chest Scatter.
- Free Spins – 6 to 35 Free Spins are awarded by the Giant Squid after you land 3, 4, or 5 Treasure Chest Scatters (most valuable symbol of the slot: 75x the total bet for 5OAK). Thus, all your wins will be multiplied by 5x, but sadly the Free Spins cannot be re-triggered.
- Your Gamble feature – Each win can be increased or lost at your will here. Adjust the gambling odds yourself by pressing the “+” or “-” buttons, or ensure 50% of your win by betting only half of it. It’s all in your hands, so you only have yourself to blame if you lose it all. Press the ‘collect’-button to have your winnings paid out and end the gamble feature.
