Time to join John Hunter as he heads deep into the depth of ancient Florence to seek out the riches in this Da Vinci’s Treasure slot.
The full title of this slot review is John Hunter and The Secrets of Da Vinci’s Treasure, but let’s be honest – no one is calling this anything else but the Da Vinci’s Treasure slot.
It’s a bit like how Rich Wilde and The Book of Dead is now just Book of Dead game because it makes more sense.
And much like that video slot, the titular character simply adds a rogue Indiana Jones style that makes them instantly familiar, but it’s the Renaissance painter and his mysterious prizes that bring most of the glory.
Basically, you need to get three scatters, and then you’ll trigger one of three features. Our favourite, and in order, are:
However, be careful of one thing; after every single bonus, you get to choose to gamble your winnings in a simple click-me-game. This almost never works out in your favour.
When you load up this slot game you’ll be impressed by the fact that you can win up to 48,000 times your bet! It says it right there.
Yeah, sure. But not only do you need to get an amazing win in the last spin of the free spin bonus games, and catch that 12 multipliers, but you then need to gamble that and have 1 in 5 chances of 5x that win.
So it’s pretty unlikely. But getting over 100 times your bet, especially in the Map Quest happens a little more easily that you are prepared to forgive the fact this addition to the Pragmatic slots list is so very volatile.
That said, one bad round and whilst you might forgive this adventure game, you might not be able to forget it and get playing quite as quickly.

Wilds: Da Vinci is the wild symbol and replaces all other symbols on the reels to help create wins over this 25 payline online slot.
It does not replace the scatter bonus symbol and doesn't show up on reel one.
Scatters and Bonuses: The drill is the bonus symbol and get 3 on reels 2, 3 and 4 and you'll trigger one of three bonus symbols.
Mapquest: During the map quest you spin a wheel of fortune which moves you around a map, or finishes the game.
The further around the map you go, the higher the prizes.
Free Spins: You get 12 free spins with a starting multiplier of 1x. Each spin increases the multiplier by 1, up to a total of 12x multiplier.
You can retrigger this bonus within the free games up to a total of 60.
Prize Picker: You pick from 3 pieces of artwork to get a small cash prize, up to around 20x your bet.
Gamble Rules: The total win of any of the three features above can be collected or gambled.
If you gamble and lose, you lose all the wins from the feature.
This is a very risky game to play but can pay off big as long as you don't mind losing the wins you've collected.
This John Hunter and the Secrets of Da Vinci's Treasure slot looks good on iPad and smartphones, though it's clearly following a similar template to the famous Book of Ra Deluxe slot game.
This is made for the discerning gamblers who've been around the casino block a few times and are looking for new ways to get that big win big risk high.
You know the one: when you gamble all your winnings in one big bet to try and get your name written about in our big winner slot stories.
And this casino game certainly provides those opportunities, but if you prefer something a little less extreme, try the adventurer Jungle Jim slot by Microgaming, who isn't quite as fearless as this John Hunter.
