Welcome to the very Gates of Olympus, where the strongest of the gods from Ancient Greece will greet you. Zeus is your host on this ultra-volatile journey, and 5,000x bet is your goal in the 2021 release. Playable from $0.20 per spin, the Pragmatic Play title offers several additional features. Thanks to the All Ways engine, you can land winning combinations anywhere on the reels. Tumbling reels will get you more chances for winning payouts in a single spin. Random win multipliers are added, up to 500x. Also, there is the Free Spins feature with rising multipliers.
Gates of Olympus is a six-reel, five-row video slot that benefits from the All Ways engine. Symbols can pay anywhere on the reels. In order to win a payout, players need to land at least 8 matching symbols anywhere on the reels. So, no paylines that pay left to right or vice versa, no clusters, and no ways to win, where you need to follow certain rules. Here, just make sure that there are enough winning symbols on the screen. Gamers can bet between $0.20 and $125 per spin, if you activate the Ante Bet option.
In terms of visuals, the Pragmatic Play product looks and sounds very good. The reels are set at the very entrance of Mount Olympus, and Zeus will be there to greet you and keep you company while you play the game. Do not get scared of his appearance, the mighty god is there to help you land wins. Apart from being your host, Zeus is also the Scatter that triggers free spins. A Crown, Hourglass, Golden Ring, a Goblet, and five different Gemstones are used as regular symbols. Unfortunately, there are no Wilds on offer.
Every win will trigger the Tumble feature. All winning symbols will be removed from the grid, and new ones will fill the blank positions, hopefully, to create new winning combinations. Tumbles continue until there are no new winning combos. The Multiplier feature is triggered randomly, and you will know that it begins once you see the lightning around Zeus. Winger Orbs will be sent on the reels, carrying multipliers, which can go between 2x and 500x. If more Orbs appear on the reels at the same time, their values are combined to deliver bigger wins.
The Free Spins feature triggers when four or more Zeus Scatters land on the reels. Players will receive 15 free spins to being with. Land multiplier orbs and the multiplier remains until the end of the feature. Every multiplier landed is added to the total multiplier during the feature. Free spins come with unlimited retriggers. Finally, there is the Ante Bet option that you can activate to double your chances to trigger free spins. It will cost you 25 extra coins.
We are positive that every player looking for action and excitement will have loads of fun on the Mount Olympus. The 2021 release offers a fair amount of extras, but our personal favourite is the Free Spins feature, with the increasing win multiplier that does not reset after a non-winning tumble. The top payout of 5,000x bet is nice, but be aware of the fact that the game is ultra-volatile, and that it will take time for you to land massive wins.
