Medusa in brief

Medusa is a slot from PG Soft released in 2018 that brings the gorgon's tale into a maritime theme. The theme list includes ancient civilizations, gods, the sea and water plus a touch of RPG atmosphere, and the color palette leans on blue and gray.

Published RTP is 95.29 percent. The core features are Wild symbols, Sticky Wilds, Scatter symbols, free spins and a separate bonus game, so the action is built around substitute symbols and bonuses.

Theme and atmosphere

PG Soft places Medusa between sea and sky: a palette of blues and greys meets divine myth and legendary imagery. Gorgon herself is the game’s central figure, and the RPG-tinged approach gives the symbols an adventurous weight.

The base game's look is calm but adventurous, emphasizing a maritime, mythological atmosphere rather than the horror side of the myth.

Symbols and sticky wilds

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter and helps complete winning combinations. Sticky Wilds stay in place for a set time, which can increase the chances of wins on consecutive spins.

Scatter symbols act as the game's triggers and are not tied to paylines. Exact payout multipliers and symbol ranking are shown in the game's own paytable.

Free Spins and bonus game

Free Spins and Bonus Game are mentioned in the game info, where the bigger wins typically occur. Sticky wilds add their own boost specifically in the bonus phase.

We do not publish exact trigger numbers that are not stated in the game's info — exact scatter counts and free spin numbers are confirmed in the game's info panel.

RTP and volatility

95.29% RTP sits slightly below the industry's 96% benchmark. It's a statistical long-term figure, not a guarantee of any single round.

No official volatility figure or maximum win is listed in the game details, and we do not guess them. We prefer to leave the numbers open rather than give an unconfirmed estimate.

Who Medusa is for

Medusa suits players who enjoy maritime mythology, sticky wilds and a clear bonus structure without an overloaded feature list. Because max win and volatility aren't stated, check the game's own info before staking larger amounts. Set a budget and try the game in demo first.

Core mechanics

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter and helps form winning combinations. Sticky Wilds remain on the reels for a set time, while Scatter symbols act as triggers regardless of payline.

The exact structure of the grid and paylines isn’t listed in the game details. Exact multipliers and symbol values are confirmed in the game’s own paytable.

Free spins, bonus game and RTP

Free Spins -free spins and the Bonus Game -bonus are triggered by the game's internal conditions, which are not detailed in public information. Sticky wilds can particularly affect bonus-phase payouts.

The game rules note that the theoretical overall RTP can decrease if respins are played on reels that do not produce a win. It's good to keep this in mind when placing additional bets.
