300 Shields Mighty Ways: Our Verdict

We’ve been looking forward to 300 Shields Mighty Ways for a good while, and we must say, we were not disappointed in the slightest.

When you think of 300 Shields you think of a game that can blow up at any given moment. It can seemingly go from 0-100 in the blink of an eye, and 300 Shields Mighty Ways feels bigger and better than any 300 Shields slot before it.

In some ways that’s quite a statement, because the previous slots are somewhat of a favourite for many, and to fill their shoes would be a big task indeed. By combining the classical 300 shields with their new and popular Mighty Ways mechanic, Light & Wonder has created the perfect amalgamation of chaos and excitement.

300 Shields Mighty Ways remains a volatile beast like its predecessors though. Some bonuses had us on the edge of our seat and some just did not get the momentum that is sorely needed if you’re to see it at its best. Players outside of the UK may jump head first into the deep end with a Super Bonus buy which starts the game with a 300x multiplier locked and ready to go.

However, it’s quite a costly buy. 1,566x is not easy to part with, but in our experience when playing it, it was definitely worth it at times.

Overall, we think 300 Shields Mighty Ways is one to watch. We’re fully expecting some big win videos on this one from viewers when it releases.
