For most players, 1024 win-lines are plenty enough – if you are looking for even more possibilities, then Treasures of Troy from IGT has the answer. In addition to the ‘MultiWay Xtra’ 1024 winning combinations, you’ll get 40 standard win lines on top. The same symbols make up the lines, though they pay different amounts (more for the old win-lines system). This historical slot is nicely put together. I found this game entertaining to play and a great example of new technology in a tried and trusted niche.

Dramatic music plays, especially when you get a win. What I liked about this slot is that you can keep spinning, and the stirring tune keeps on going for 2 or maybe 3 spins. There graphics are subtle. They feel modern and nicely put together, though they are a tan colour and mostly quite simple and understated. Things liven up for the free spins bonus, where everything changes colour for a while.

This felt like a high variance slot. There were patches where I clicked for a while with no wins at all, and then suddenly, big wins would appear.

You can choose either the 40 lines alone, or the 40 lines plus the 1024-ways system for this game. If you are not familiar with MultiWay Xtra, this pays all sequential symbols starting in the left hand reel regardless of position on the reels. Effectively, as long as there is one of each symbol, you cannot miss having a win like you can with the old win-lines system.

Playing the lines costs you 1c per line minimum, with an extra 40c for the 1024 ways option – making the smallest spin for both 80c.

Things get a little complex for the pay-outs. You get more for the line bets and less for the same sequence of symbols for the multi-way bets. For example, the lady (presumably Helen of Troy) is the top payer. This gets you 5000 coins for 5 via the win-lines, and only 500 for the multi-way. You do need to balance this with the fact you’ll have a lot more wins with the multi-way, especially when a wild or two gets involved. The male hero, solider, mask and sword are the next paying regular symbols, with the playing cards ace through jack making up the smaller wins.

There is a wild symbol in the form of the ‘Treasures of Troy’ logo. This substitutes for everything except the bonus and can appear in columns 2 through 5. The famous Trojan horse is the bonus symbol, which only appears on the middle reel. You get 10 free spins for 2, 15 spins for 3 and 20 spins for 4 of these.

While the reels and background changes colour, and the dramatic music goes up a level of intensity, the bonus round is essentially the same as the main game. If you get 2 or more Trojan Horses, which now faces the other way, then you get up to 20 more spins (same rules as the main game). There is a limit of 130 spins per feature.

The wins accumulate in a new counter, and you are shown a screen which announces your total before you go back to the main game.

There is something about this kind of historical slot which encourages the makers to create higher variance games. This is no exception, with some very big wins interspersed with long barren spells. When the wilds did combine well, the 1024 + 40 lines came into their own, creating some huge wins and resulting cascade of coins over the reels.

I liked both the graphics and the music for this game. The stirring music contrasted well with the smart yet understated graphics to create an atmospheric slot. The feature round is nothing too special, though a retrigger or two can see a spin turn into a big windfall very quickly.

This slot gets a recommendation, even if you do not normally go for the historical games; this is a nicely put together slot which is definitely worth taking for a spin.

The treasures of Troy in Moscow's Pushkin Museum.

Inside a small room in the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Art, an exhibit of gold jewelry, stone axes and bowls is on display. The objects are all part of what is known as “Priam’s Treasure,” the spoils of the ancient city of Troy. The items were discovered during excavation works in what is now Turkey at the end of the 19^th century. Originally given to the city of Berlin by German entrepreneur Heinrich Schliemann, how the treasure ended up in Moscow is a story of plunder, war and legal wrangling.

A man with a singular goal

Schliemann's career began in the office of the import/export firm B. H. Schröder & Co in the Netherlands. Soon, however, his outstanding talent for foreign languages earned him a promotion: he was sent as the company's representative to Russia. He was based first in St. Petersburg, and later in Moscow. Schliemann was granted Russian citizenship in 1846; in 1852, he married Yekaterina Lyzhina, the daughter of a well-to-do Russian merchant. Schliemann did not settle permanently in Russia, though. He traveled extensively and eventually divorced his wife, in part by taking up residence in Indiana.

By 1858, Schliemann was wealthy enough to retire and decided to devote himself to finding the ancient city of Troy. In 1873, during excavation works on a hill called Hissarlik in what is now Turkey, he found his first treasure. “The discovery of Priam's Treasure was an international sensation,” said Vladimir Tolstikov, chief curator of the collection at the Pushkin Museum and director of the museum's department of art and archeology of the ancient world.

Schliemann continued with his archaeological work almost until his death in 1890. According to different estimates, he found between 19 and 21 treasures. The collection was held at the Royal Museums of Berlin until the onset of World War II.

Spoils of war

During the war, the treasures were first kept in the basement of a Berlin bank. When aerial bombardments began, the items were moved to an air-raid bunker. In April 1945, as Soviet troops were storming Berlin, the collection remained under constant care of Wilhelm Unverzagt, a Berlin museum director. According to Tolstikov, Unverzagt, feared that the collection might be destroyed and voluntarily surrendered the crates containing the treasure to Soviet soldiers in July 1945. They were then taken to Moscow.

After the war, the Germans began searching for the collection, but its whereabouts were unknown until 1994. “Only two people in the world knew where it was: the director of the Pushkin Museum and the collection curator,” Tolstikov said.

Priam's Treasure might have remained classified for much longer had it not been for Grigory Kozlov, an employee of Russia’s Culture Ministry, who had access to archives and service correspondence. In the 1990s, Kozlov published information about the treasure in the U.S. press. After the information was made public, Russian Culture Minister Yevgeny Sidorov ordered the collection to go on display. In 1995, experts from Germany and other countries were invited to inspect the collection and sign a document certifying its authenticity. An exhibition of the collection was staged in 1996.

At this point, Germany filed a formal protest demanding that the collection be returned. In 1998, the Russian parliament reacted by adopting a law on cultural objects that had been taken by the Soviet Union World War II and were currently on Russian territory. The document declared all such objects “the federally owned property of Russia.”

“The law came into force, no one is going to breach it,” said Tolstikov. “Our German colleagues understood that they would not be able to do anything about it, so now we cooperate successfully and organize joint exhibitions.”

Alexandra Skuratova, an assistant professor in the international law department at the Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO), agreed that there is no point in the German government protesting the law.

“This is a legal result, and it has legal implications,” Skuratova said. She added that Priam's Treasure may be viewed as partial compensation for the destruction of Soviet cultural objects during the war. According to official statistical data, more than 160 Soviet museums and 4,000 libraries were damaged during the war, and 115,000 books were destroyed.

Skuratova also notes that the Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict was adopted in 1954, after World War II. As per the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, international treaties are not retroactive “unless the treaty otherwise provides.” The parties to the Hague Convention are not known to have expressed their intention to make the document retroactive, so it cannot be applied to the Priam's Treasure case.
