Achilles is a penny slot as only one line can be played for $0.01, and the minimum bet to cover all paylines is therefore $0.20, while the maximum possible bet on one spin is $100. In essence, there are four symbols to look forward to and all are easily visible on the reels: Trojan Horse and Helen as high-pay symbols, Achilles and Troy as the symbols that trigger the free spins game. Troy is the Scatter symbol that triggers the free spins game.

In addition to these ten symbols there's also a Wild symbol, a paying one, with a 10,000 coin prize if you land five. The two medium-paying symbols aren't really worth much, and the six low-paying card symbols are worthless. Trojan Horse and Helen will pay 12 coins for five-of-a-kind respectively. The paytable consists of ten symbols, and only two are worth something. Animations are smooth, symbols look good, and overall the game can be enjoyable even by those players who don't like classic slot graphics. Graphics are good for a classic slot, and while all the usual guidelines for classic slots are followed, the game somehow looks better than most other slots of the genre. The Spin/Stop buttons can be clicked very fast, with several spins per seconds a real possibility in Achilles. I've found variance to be medium as the game pays often even though it's a classic slot.

Theoretical return to player (RTP) is very high, 97.50%, so this also makes Achilles one of the best-paying classic slots. Achilles uses a standard 5x3 board and 20 paylines, and the paylines are selectable from 1 to 20 so a player can directly affect the variance of the game. Achilles is a classic slot game, one of the best of its kind, as it provides all the necessary ingredients classic slot players love and then does it better than almost all other slots.
