Aztec Sun is another game in the Hold and Win series by developer 3 Oaks. The game takes players to explore Aztec temples in Mesoamerica, a familiar setting in the gaming world. The game’s main feature is the streak-style respins bonus, providing most payouts and offering jackpots up to 1,000x the bet. As expected from 3 Oaks, Aztec Sun Hold and Win is not particularly unique; it sports a common Aztec theme with simple graphics and an unimpressive tribal soundtrack. The game is played across a standard 5×3 reel with 25 paylines and bets ranging from €0.25 to €60 per spin. The game’s math model is mediocre, with a return rate of 95.33% and a maximum win capped at 1,000x the stake. The game’s volatility is high. The game features familiar A-J royals and Aztec symbols, with the snake totem acting as a Wild symbol. Landing three temple Scatter symbols in the base game activates eight free spins. Sun symbols can appear with a random bet multiplier value from 1x to 25x, and landing six or more triggers the Hold and Win bonus. If the entire grid is filled with bonus symbols, the Grand Jackpot of 1,000x the stake is awarded. Despite its simple graphics, poor math model, and average gameplay, Aztec Sun Hold and Win may still appeal to players who enjoy the Aztec theme and streak-style respins.
