Helios Furya Slot Review

Helios Fury Slot Overview

Helios Fury from Relax Gaming is a high volatility Greek mythology slot set around the siege of Rhodes. The action plays out on 5 reels and 3 rows in the base game, using a Connected Ways mechanic with 99 ways to win. The standout hook is the wild warship that walks across the reels, driving respins and acting as the gateway to the Fury Free Spins feature.

When a wild reaches the far right reel and forms a win, Helios Fury shifts gear into Fury Free Spins, adding extra rows and expanding to 259 Connected Ways. The game targets players who enjoy swingy maths with serious hit potential, offering wins of up to 50,000x stake. I like how the core mechanics stay simple yet still give the slot a strong identity.

Theme and Graphics in Helios Fury

Helios Fury uses the Colossus of Rhodes as its centrepiece, with a towering statue of Helios looming over a stylised ancient city. The backdrop feels like a painted scene of the Aegean, while the reels carry cartoon-styled weapons and stone-carved suit symbols. Helios occasionally stirs into life, hammering his chest or glaring at the invaders, which helps sell the idea of a city under attack.

The audio design fits the fiery war setting, mixing dramatic orchestral elements with the clatter of weapons and whooshing wild ships. When the respins chain together and the grid expands in Fury Free Spins, the burning city, bronze waves and marching wilds combine into a very vivid sequence. I find the slightly playful artwork balances the intense maths, so long sessions feel more like a comic epic than a slog.

RTP, Volatility and Max Win in Helios Fury

Helios Fury comes with a default RTP of 96.27% and sits at the very top of the volatility scale, rated 5 out of 5 with a hit frequency around 23.98%. In some versions, buying Fury Free Spins raises the RTP to about 97%, although that option is not always present. Bets start at 0.10 per spin and go up to 20, with a maximum win capped at 50,000x stake.

How to Play Helios Fury

Getting started with Helios Fury is straightforward. I set my stake between 0.10 and 20 using the bet controls, then hit spin or use autoplay where it is allowed. The game runs on a Connected Ways system, so wins form when three or more matching symbols connect from the leftmost reel, either on the same row, one row above, or one row below, giving 99 winning ways in the base game.

Wins pay in multipliers of the total bet, so it pays to keep an eye on the paytable before pushing the bet too high. Because of the aggressive variance, I tend to pick a stake that can weather dry spells while waiting for wild ships on the early reels. The base game can tick along on regular Connected Ways hits, but the real swings start when walking wild respins kick in.

Bonus Features in Helios Fury

The Wild Respins feature is central to Helios Fury. Any time a wild longship helps form a win in the base game, a respin is awarded and that wild walks one reel to the right. Respins keep coming as long as at least one wild is part of a winning combination. Wilds that are not connected to a win simply spin off the grid, so positioning can matter a lot.

Fury Free Spins trigger when a walking wild reaches the fifth reel and still manages to join a win. This awards 6 free spins and adds two extra rows, turning the layout into a 5x5 grid with 259 Connected Ways. The bonus round starts with a wild ship fixed in the middle of reel one, acting as an anchor for new combinations and pushing the hit rate up straight away.

During Fury Free Spins, all wilds involved in wins sail towards a hot spot on the rightmost reel of each row. When a wild reaches that hot spot it locks in place for the rest of the feature and grants an extra free spin, then the hot spot shifts one reel to the left. New wilds also award extra spins, so rows can fill with sticky ships. Where allowed, a bonus buy option costing 90x stake jumps straight into this mode.

Helios Fury Symbols and Paytable

The paytable in Helios Fury is built around Greek war imagery. The golden helmet is the top-paying regular symbol and is the only one that pays from two of a kind, up to 20x stake for five in a Connected Way chain. It is followed by trumpets, swords and shields as mid-range symbols. Low pays are stone-style suits, from stars and spades down to clubs and diamonds, giving smaller multipliers.

My Verdict on Helios Fury

From my sessions, Helios Fury feels like a classic Relax Gaming high-risk slot, with the walking wilds doing far more work than any scatter mechanic. The base game can be streaky, yet the Wild Respins soften the dead patches, especially when several ships appear on neighbouring reels. When a wild finally reaches reel five and triggers Fury Free Spins, the game flips from measured pokes to all-out attacks.

The expanded grid, moving hot spots and sticky wilds mean the bonus can snowball in a satisfying way, piling wins across the 259 Connected Ways. It will not suit every bankroll, but if you like Greek mythology, Connected Ways maths and features centred on walking wilds rather than complex mini-games, Helios Fury is a slot I would happily come back to for high-adrenaline sessions.
