Beware of a dreadful Medusa! Her physical charm shall not blind your eyes, as her power overruns all strength known by humans. Once you look into her eyes, you will become addicted to her company. Visit her home inside the shipwreck and find a secret treasure hidden in the sea. But be careful! “Medusa II” will not let you leave her world after a few spins – she is going to turn you into a stone featuring only two working organs: eyes for admiring her beauty and hands for playing her game! ...

I said in other reviews for NetEnt slots that these casinos have much advanced in what it concerns both the wins and the gaming sensation itself, but Medusa II only brings great suspense and a sense of superlative gaming without excelling in what it concerns the payouts.

The slot contains 5 minor symbols and 5 major symbols and for the 25-cent bet, 3 minor symbols pay about 10 cents and 4-5 major symbols (quite frequent here) about 1-3 Euro. The Wild symbol is of course Medusa herself. In normal spins, occasionally 2 or 3 reels engage together (as in “Twin Spins”) and stop on the same symbols. Sometimes with some luck you can have from these reel couplings as many as 5 major symbols aligned. The Free Spins, which are 10 in number, bring the same reel coupling (2, 3 or even 5 together) for each spin and because of this the wins are quite significant. But when I say significant payouts, you should be aware, however, that the value of a Big Win at this slot is only about 3 Euros! The last feature brought by this slot, namely the “Stone Stacked Wilds” when a soldier attacks Medusa and is turned into stone, is still too rare. In contrast to the first version here Medusa herself is a nice looking character (and with the exception of the snakes from her head, she is also appealing enough).

Due to the frequent couplings of the reels, and to the relatively easy way to trigger the Free Spins, the slot is alert and attractive. The music is as beautiful as the game. Too bad the wins brought by these features offset only with great difficulty the losses. Playing the first version of this slot the wins were significant and even bringing some extra revenue. Here, after about 30 minutes, I stopped having about 20 Euros less.

Still the slot gets a slightly higher than average rating for the beauty of the game and its great theme.

e sound of the slot was good but the animation, graphics and effects are spectacular. The game had 243 play lines and 5 reels like Micrograming slots. The wilds in Medusa 2 slot is a bit different from normal slot game they appear when soldiers appear on the reels. At this point Medusa can turn the soldiers into stones on its stare on them which turn the entire reel into wild. The wilds can substitute any icon except scatters. The free spin feature is activated when you hit three scatters and you get 10 free spins. You are rewarded with 5 more free spins if you consecutively hit the three scatters again. There is also a feature of locked reels in this slot in which the same symbols appear on the reel. So if you are lucky the locked symbol can be a scatter.

I started with the bet of $0.25 to $.50. I tried this slot at WinTingo casino and had a win of around 20 times my bet. I won the free spin bonus few times. But I could manage only a win of $30 after an hour of play.

In my opinion I had a good time in playing the slot game. I liked its graphics a lot as I earlier mentioned it but if you are playing for a good heavy win then this is not your type. My first experience in playing a Next Gen slot was good overall and I would rate it 7/10.

The main character is, of course, Medusa, the famous creature from Greek mythology able to turn to stone anyone who looks at her eyes. I think I was also turning on a rock because I spent a long time petrified in front of my computer playing it.

This game is 5-reel slot with 243 Ways to Win with a black background, frame emerald green and gold lettering and wallpaper behind with a picture of a meadow where there are ruins of buildings with Ionic architecture. The colors unconsciously capture the idea of wealth in your head. The background music is a song of Egyptian style with much content of drums that evokes suspense, danger and mystery, and that increases in intensity during rounds of free spins, where the pace quickens and thunders are added to make it more dramatic.

But the excitement does not end there, the best of this game is the collection of special features it has, and different to similar slots, they are constantly activated. These features are:
- Medusa's locked reels: Randomly activated and it begins when several reels are covered elegantly, with an animation of Medusa walking between water. These reels spins and when they stop show the same symbols in each of the 3 horizontal lines, to maximize the chance to complete one or more winning lines.
- Medusa's locked reels free games: with the emergence of 3 or more scatters, represented by the logo of the game, a round of 10 free spins is triggered, and every spin will present the above-mentioned feature. This feature can be re-triggered granting additional 5 spins each time.
- Turned to Stone stacked wilds: randomly during the base game, a soldier may appear and attack Medusa with a sword and she defends herself turning him on stone statue and then depositing stacked wilds on some reels.
- Gambling: there is also the chance to double or quadruple the gains with this feature, for those who like it.

I could spend hours playing Medusa II without getting tired and not complaining about my earnings. I know it's a game quite well received and now I know why.

Original Medusa slot was one of my favorite from this slot software, so of course first thing I do is I tried this slot. Let's start!

Layout and graphic are improved since first game, but luckily Nextgen kept this theme, and everything looks the same, so fans of original games should be happy with this one too, at least I was happy to see how this game look.

Both base game and freespins feature are interesting here. Slot has 243 lines, and in base game there can happen two features - first one is when soldier attack medusa - this guarantee you one stacked reel of wilds. And second is medusa locked reel, when medusa choose few reels and such reels will have same symbols (like at twin spin @ NetEnt). Three or more scatters award here award 10 freespins, during which each spin triggered medusa locked reel feature,up to 5 locked reels, and there is a chance to have all wild reels, which will pay lot of money.

I tried this game only few times since it was released, and generally I am obviously hunger to try it few more times. I had bad luck and did not win anything decent, and also I noticed that like original medusa here is very hard trigger freespins feature. But game is great, I am sure in this.

I rate this slot with 9 stars, thanks to Nextgen for creating such great video slot, I was happy to play it. And I am sure that I will play this slot again once I will have some money for casinos.

played Medusa II at Unibet and it’s a slot that can be quite addicting as well. It has a lot of teasing, especially with the scatters, to a point that it could really drive you insane.

I must have seen two scatters land on the reel like 20 times and seeing nothing on reel 5. Quite annoying as well. But let’s not forget about the positive side of this game. Unlike the first Medusa slot, Medusa II has a 243 ways to win format decorated in the form of 5 reels and 3 rows.

This game has also been produced by NYX Interactive under its daughter gaming company NextGen Gaming. Another striking difference with Medusa I is the many random elements it has and stacked wilds on every reel. This makes it very exciting and hence me calling it chaotic because anything can happen at any time.

The minimum bet is 0.25 euro but I played 50 cents bets. The first time I played it I lost 50 euros in no time with no significant wins, but somehow got hypnotised and kept playing. The random elements include a wild reel, but that doesn’t produce too many big wins.

The other random element is a bit like NetEnt’s TwinSpin where it holds 2 or 3 reels with the same symbols. Since there are stacked wilds, you can get like 3 reels full of wilds if you’re lucky. And if you get wilds on the other reels as well, then you certainly have a big hit.

I had two rows full of wilds on reels 1, 2 and 3 and some nice symbols on reels 4 and 5 winning 100 x betsize during base game as my best win. If you get 3, 4 or 5 scatters you get 10 free spins with the random feature holding 2 or 3 reels with the same symbols during every spin.

Unfortunately I never won more than 20 x bet size during the free spins sessions I experienced so far. Of course it does have much more potential.

With Medusa there are 3 features with one disadvantage to me as a player........it doesn't pay left to right in any direction whereas this new Medusa II can do that but with not so great features like the Super spins.

Most of the Medusa II features are mini features and one big feature that is of 10 Free spins with each spin locking.....it's like NetEnt's Twin Spin come true (lol, Luciana: Oh you shouldn't have)!!! Both mini features are random and I've come across them 4 times! One is a soldier about to attack Medusa but turns into stone which on one of the reels become wild. I always end up hitting 5 symbols, usually 5 of those gold bracers but other times I get a terrible 3 of a kind with this wild reel. Every time it's always a win...for better or worse to point out! The last mini feature is exactly the same with NetEnt's Twin Spin where two reels would result as identical.....this is where my luck turned very well because on Reel 2 it had the Medusa II scatter while the next two reels, locked, gave this random feature that uncovered two identical scatters which in turn triggered my free spins!! The 10 Free spins are locked reels where each spin can duplicate in 2, 3 or 4 reels. 4 reels being the most exciting to me as a player!!! The thoughts it can potentially bring! I always hope these identical reels give out stacked Medusa wilds, that's where the large money is!

The biggest win total for these free spins I had are for $159.50!! My screen is enclosed for you to see! Now whenever I see Medusa's shadow move across the reels, it gave me an indication that 5 of a kind symbols are going into my spin, the predictability was there which I liked! Medusa II is an 8.5 out of 10....unfortunately AG won't let us put half stars so I left it as 8 stars.....I think they got lazy ;). To me I think Medusa II is very close or exactly the same as Twin Spin (please don't hurt me guru).

The first time I tried it was in some Skill On Net casino, I think it was Luna casino. I have to say that the minimum bet here was 1.25 per spin which was a bit high but than again the payouts were big and I really liked the gameplay. This game has a few features and only one bonus feature. If you get 3 scatter symbols you get 10 free spins with locked reels. This means that 2, 3, 4 or all 5 reels become one and spin together and produce the same symbols. The wins here can be pretty amazing. With this feature you can easily get wins of over 100 x bet. A few times in the bonus round I got 3 locked reels usually in the middle and 3 or 6 wilds on them. If you are lucky enough to get 5 of a kind combinations because this is a 243 payline slot the wins are really incredible. The free spins can be retriggered and you get extra 5 free spins for every 3 more scatter symbols you get. Another feature which can come in handy is the turned to stone stacked wild. A soldier can appear on one reel and Medusa turns him to stone which reveals a stacked reel of wilds. They can make a nice combination resulting in a descent win.

I have played this game a few times and the wins were always very good.

n't comment anything about it myself, because generally I do not care how much paylines slot have, important for me it is that this slot should be interesting.

There is couple of interesting features, but generally most important one- is the same as twin spin slot feature (game by Net Entertainment). During any spin locked reels feature can be triggered and from two to five same reels will appear. Also after special animation when soldier attack medusa and turns to stone one wild reel will appear. Well, locked reels feature triggered often, but most times with 2 reels of course. But few times I had even 4 reels locked, but payouts was just sucks, or even zero, just like at twin spin. One great thing- there is stacked wilds on all reels, so you can get all reels of wilds, and with 243 lines you will win awesome amount of money. 3 or more scatters trigger 10 free spins, during each free spins locked reels feature is active.

Generally my experience with this game is not nice. I like this slot, it is interesting and of course have great potential, but I just can't win anything. Locked reels feature usually just sucks for me, not saying about one wild reel feature. I had about 5-6 free spins features in total, and each time I just saw how 2-3 reels most times became say, but nothing special appears on this reels. I am even not break 100x total bet mark. Good idea, everything good, just unlucky game for me.

This slot has 5 reels and 243 paylines and the minimum bet that can be placed is 0.50$.

I came into this game with a balance of 45$. The first thing that I did when the game loaded was click spin without changing the bet which was on 5$. But amazingly on that spin a brave soldier appeared and tried to attack Medusa, but unfortunately was turned to stone which actually benefited me since he left me with stacked wilds from which I got a five of a kind that gave me 30$ which made me really happy. But then I immediately changed it back since I don’t want to tempt my luck again. I just proceeded spinning with 0.50$ bet and I got a decent win of 5.20$ and after that the game just slowed down.

The game has a nice free spin feature that needs 3 or more scatter to trigger. It took me a while to trigger it since most of the times 2 scatter symbols appeared but they were not followed by a third one. Until unexpectedly reel 2, 3 and 4 locked and 3 scatter symbols appeared and awarded me 10 FS with Medusa's locked reels feature. Basically in free spins any 2, 3, 4 or 5 reels may lock and spin together to eventually show the same symbols. From this feature I got a win of 6.5$. I had lots of these feature triggers later on and the best one was the one that awarded me 25$. I stopped playing this game since I hit a bad losing streak but still in the end I ended up 100$ ahead for a total of 145$.

Overall a really exciting and interesting game that I enjoyed playing and will enjoy playing hopefully many times more in the future. 9/10

I was impressed when I saw Medusa II game having 243 winning ways, well that was something I would gladly try.

I liked the Medusa I slot game and thinking this one has 25 pay lines, but even then with the free spins and the bonus rounds this game had I thought this Medusa would be much better. When I opened the slot for the first time, yes they are very similar, maybe they changed the looks of the characters a bit, added 243 winning ways and of course the most important thing is the stacked wilds, which can appear on every reel.

As for the rest, again same theme with Greek mythology, same dark background, which must say I was never fan of games like this one, just because I like more bright more colorful slot games. What I liked in this game is the fact of the 2-3 coming with the same symbols and catching wilds on the other ones; we are talking here for some nice extra win, even with a small bet of 0.50 cents.

I have played this game only few times, just because I guess this game isn't met for me. I am really annoyed when the free spins feature couldn't be triggered and of course we are all looking forward for some bonus or free spins rounds while we play, knowing the big wins come from those features. My few attempts of playing this game, even so its 243 winning way I seem I cant hit anything decent, so I guess that was enough for me to stop trying this game, well I might play it sometimes if I am given free spins from some casinos. Good luck!

dusa itself is very beatiful, and also this game contains a lot of great animations and sounds. It was really pleasure for me to see such improvements from Nextgen in terms of game look.

There is couple of very interesting features. First feature which I would like to say - it is medusa turning soldie in wild. It can be triggered any random normal play hit, and one reel will be wild. Also there is stacked wilds on all reels, so this feature could work good if you get stacked wilds on other reels. Once I won about 50 bets with this feature, and this is my best result.

Another great feature it is locked reels. It can be triggered any random normal play spin, and it can be from 2 to 5 reels locked. Locked reels will produce same result, like at twin spin for example. Very interesting feature and most important in this slot, and could pay good. Specially if somehow you will have 5 locked reels, and all reels will be wilds.

I like this game. During freespins locked reels feature activating each spin, which is great. I tried this game many time, but never had monster hits. Only once I was able to get 200 bets feature, when it make 3 wilds reels. Unfortunately other symbols was not too good.

I rate this game with 9 stars.

It has 5 reels and 243 paylines, yet the minimum bet is 0.25€ per spin. This game has locked reels feature which really reminds me of Yggdrasil slot Nirvana. This feature is really great, as it comes up randomly and medusa will lock random reels. The reason I really enjoy it is because sometimes it can be just random letter symbols that might end up without a win on the spin, but if you're lucky, the locked reels can contain wilds and scatters. For me it seems easier to trigger free games with the help of the locked reels feature, rather than just collecting 3 scatters on a regular spin.

Another reason I really enjoy this game is the fact that wilds, who are designed as Medusa's face and looks really beautiful, can come up stacked and those are the times I have got big winnings on this slot. And when a soldier comes up, they fight and random reel is turned wild. This game is really entertaining and it's a thing I can't say too often about a slot's base game.

So far I haven't had a win over 100x bet, but I have no doubts about the winning potential for this game, even the free spins bonus is more than just exciting, as it rewards with 10 free spins, they don't have a multiplier, but that's being compensated by the fact that locked reels feature will appear on every spin, I have also retriggered the free games few times.

Overall this is a really wonderful game from Nextgen gaming and it's one of my favorite slots from their collection. Design is really enjoyable and the amount of features makes game very intriguing. Although on base game my best win has been around 50x bet, game gives frequent winnings and because of that is a great option for wagering purposes, but even though my best win on free spins has been around 95x bet, I think this game can pay good. I will definitely keep playing this game and I think it is a must try.

I had no idea that NetEnt's "Twin Spin" borrowed its locked reels mechanic from this game, and perhaps it didn't, it might well have been a different game - but this proves that it wasn't an original idea.

The first Medusa was a great high variance, high paying game and I had high expectations for this sequel. Fortunately I wasn't disappointed! NextGen have gone for 243 ways this time around which is a format I have come to really enjoy in on-line slots. Interestingly the paytable looks a little more attractive than other 243 ways games I play a lot, at least for the five of a kind combinations - three and four of a kind hits are lucky to return your bet as usual.

About those locked reels - in this game they are randomly activated during the base game rather than being activated on every single spin as in Twin Spin, however you do get them on every spin during the bonus round. There is a second stacked wild mini feature when a centurion style soldier lands on the reels too which can really help to score big combinations of wild symbols all the way up to a jackpot all reels wild spin which pays 121,500 coins or 4860x your stake. Hefty!

wever, Medusa almost appears in every Greek mythology video slots, not as main character but she would appear on a shield or as a statue. A lot of media potray Medusa as a snake embodied person but she is actually a winged human being with a hideous face and snakes as hair. There are so many portayals of her that nobody knows how she really looked like.

Medusa II is a video slot from NYX (formerly of Nextgen) and also a sequel of Medusa, also from the same provider. The first Medusa slot has 25 paylines and is also the best Nextgen game in my opinion. Medusa II however, is a 243 paylined game and in my experience, those two games have a totally different gameplay. Both have 2 different bonus feature but they all different. For example, Medusa II has random wild reels which can appear on all 5 reels while on the Medusa they only appear on reel 2, 3 and 4.

I have played the game several times and I think it pays lower but that might have to do with the massive paylines. The best feature of Medusa II is the linked reels just like the famous NetEnt's Twin Spin. I do believe Medusa II is based on Twin Spin because of it's popularity. It's actually a great marketing strategy if you ask me. The linked reels could be an advantage because all symbols could come in pairs, including the scatters. So re-triggering the free spins feature is much easier.

Medusa II is a good game if you love games with high amount of paylines but personally I'd prefer it's predecessor, it pays bigger, has a multistage free spins feature and it's more fun to play.

This sequel of Medusa from NextGen has better quality graphics and with better winning potentials than the original. It plays with 243 ways to win, yet has a minimum starting bet of only 0.25 per spin. Well, at least it's cheaper to play than most other 243 ways to win games which start at 0.30 bet per spin. If you haven't played this game yet, you've been missing one of the better games available. Not the best, but definitely better than most.

Medusa is still the Wild symbol, paying a very low 500x the line bet for getting 5 of her, which works out to be around 2x the total bet for 243 paylines, but about 20x the total bet if for 25 paylines. The Wild symbol is stacked on all reels, doesn't double any wins with it, and substitutes for other symbols except for the Scatter symbol. The logo, 'Medusa II', is the Scatter symbol, paying a very low 250x the line bet for 5 of them, and getting 3 or more of these Scatters trigger 10 free spins with Locked Reels for every spin. All 5 reels may lock to reveal the same symbols, so this would give the best wins in the game. Moreover, the Free Spins game can be also retriggered. That's good, even though there isn't any multiplier for the free spins - the 243 ways would ensure that big wins do come your way!

In the base game, a Soldier may appear on any reel at any time, and Medusa would immediately turn him into stone, revealing a stack of Wilds on that reel. This feature is not available during the free spins though. As for the other symbols in the game, they pay from 400x the line bet down to 50x the line bet for getting 5 of each kind. This paytable may look extremely low, but is quite acceptable for a 243 ways game, although it is still considered as very low. Well, NextGen games tend to have low to very low paytables, similarly as for most other provider games too. It is increasingly harder to find any new game that has a very high variance and can pay really huge.

I have played Medusa many times before, I mean, played Medusa's game of course, hehehe, and I enjoyed the game very much. Whenever Medusa is in a good mood, she would give you plenty of feature games, both of the Turned To Stone kind as well as the Free Spins game and the retriggers. My best win so far is 325x my bet amount, which is pretty good, but not up to my satisfaction as yet. I always want bigger wins of at least 500x my bet amount - the bigger the better. Hmm, that sounds like a cliche doesn't it? Hehehe.

Sometimes the free spins can come very late. Most of the times you will see two scatter symbols but the third never comes. This can be very annoying.

Sometimes locked reels feature is crazy. It could make 5 reels, but place there bad symbols, and payouts will not be good at all.

The graphics arne't really to my taste - it reminds me a lot of another NextGen game "300 Shields" right down to the TJQKA symbols on the reels and the font used for the main "Medusa II" text, but I did like that game despite also not being impressed with its visuals. Overall the game definitely shows it's age but it's nice to try games from the smaller companies if only for a change once in a while. If you appreciate high variance games then NextGen make a great alternative to MG and NetEnt!

Is there anything that I don't like about this game? Not really, but a slightly better paytable would be really good, providing better chances of getting bigger wins, and having at least a 2x multiplier for the free spins would even make a bigger difference. Other than that, so far so good, but not the best.
