Return to Ithaca

Mythology’s most epic homecoming now pays in both directions.

Return to Ithaca takes the player on a Greek hero’s journey home: temples with golden columns, a queen waiting with her cup raised, and a ship crossing the Aegean toward home. A classic Odyssey setting, built with the same visual care as the rest of the game.

Features

Wilds — Substitute for any symbol to complete winning combinations.

Both-ways winning lines — 5, 10 or 15 winning lines, paying both ways on every bet — not just the highest ones. Each combination pays both left-to-right and right-to-left, considerably increasing the win frequency on every spin.

Free Spins — 7 Free Spins that multiply winning chances without risking an extra bet.

Golden Bonus — Activated by collecting 6 or more coins. Every position on the grid becomes an independent reel that spins on its own. The player gets 3 spins — but if a new coin lands on any of them, the counter resets to 3 more spins. The round stays alive as long as coins keep landing, and only ends when the spins run out without a coin or the grid fills completely. The final prize is the sum of all collected coins.

Design philosophy

Return to Ithaca was built around a simple premise: more wins, more playtime. Both-ways pay on every bet doubles the chances of forming winning combinations on each spin — and to sustain the RTP, the paytable works with more moderate values. The result is a noticeably higher win frequency, with the Golden Bonus as the counterweight: the peak prize that the base paytable deliberately leaves for it.

Return to Ithaca: the Odyssey never paid this often — nor did it have a Golden Bonus waiting at the end of the voyage.
