Azteca is an explorer slot with a clean parchment look: white reels, card letters carved in stone and painted with green and blue Aztec patterns, and line tabs 1 to 20 down each side. In the Playtech original of the same name there are two features rather than one, and this Joker123 build shows the same pair on its help screen. Here is how each one starts and what to expect.
The symbols that matter
The wild is a stepped pyramid under blue sky. It substitutes for everything except the scatter and the bonus symbol, and it has the biggest line pay on the sheet: 10,000 for five, 2000 for four, 200 for three and 10 for two.
Regular picture symbols are a purple monkey on a branch (500 for five), a red-and-white seaplane (400), and a canvas backpack (200). Below them the carved A, K, Q, J and 10 pay from 150 down to 50 for five.
Feature 1: explorer free games
The scatter is the explorer, a young woman in a red scarf. Landing enough of her gives "12 FREE GAMES x3 MULTIPLIER", as the help screen puts it. The small preview shows the free-games reels framed with a FREE GAMES banner. She also pays as a scatter in her own right, with a small pay even for two.
Feature 2: the golden idol bonus
The bonus symbol is a gold mask with red eyes. Enough of them "TRIGGER THE BONUS GAME", and the preview shows a stone shelf lined with small golden idols, the pick-an-idol style of round. The help screen also lists bonus values of x27 and x5 next to the idol counts, which reads as a multiplier on the bonus result.
One screenshot shows three idol masks, on reels 3, 4 and 5, with no bonus round starting, next to a pyramid wild that completes a K line for 0.10.
Bet panel and sizing
Twenty fixed lines: at 0.01 per line each spin is 0.20. The monkey line in one capture paid 0.56, nearly three spins' worth.
With two features to wait for, the lowest stake is the sensible starting point on a small budget.
Pacing
Both features need specific symbols on the same spin, so long runs without either are normal. Set the spin count first.

Troubleshooting and questions
Are the Azteca free games and the bonus game the same thing?
No. The explorer scatter gives free games with a x3 multiplier; the golden idol symbol triggers a separate bonus game shown as a shelf of idols.
What does the pyramid wild not replace?
It substitutes for all symbols except the scatter and the bonus idol.
