Gates of Olympus

Pick your bet and watch the symbols fall

Pick a bet and you enter a 6x5 grid themed on Ancient Greece and mythology. Wins form from matching symbols anywhere on the grid, and you need at least eight of them. When a win lands, those symbols vanish, the rest fall down and new symbols drop in from above. That tumble repeats until no win is left, so one spin can pay out several times.

Watch for Multiplier Orbs, which set this slot apart from other Pragmatic Play titles. On a winning tumble step, all orb values are summed and multiply that step's win. In Free Spins, each orb adds to a TOTAL MULTIPLIER that carries over all 15 spins and multiplies every win. Four or more Scatter start the round, and three or more add 5 spins without resetting the multiplier.

Gates of Olympus flow

Gates of Olympus, one round from bet to payout

After this you will know how a round runs, from stake to payout.

  1. Stakes from A$0.20 to A$125

    Choose a bet from A$0.20 up to A$125 before the first spin. Every payout on the grid scales with the stake you pick.

  2. Vanish first, then drop

    Land 8 or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid and they pay. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall down, and new symbols drop from above.

  3. Watch the orbs on tumbles

    Watch for Multiplier Orbs landing on a winning tumble step. Their values are summed, and that sum multiplies the step's total win.

  4. From base game to bonus

    Hit 4 or more Scatter symbols anywhere to start 15 Free Spins. The TOTAL MULTIPLIER carries across every spin, and 3 or more Scatter add 5 more spins without resetting it.

  5. Gates of Olympus session limit

    Set your session limit before the first spin, because no one can predict how a session ends. Stop once you reach it, even in the middle of a run.

Feature rules

Keep the multiplier climbing through the bonus

Worried you will miss the free spins trigger or lose the multiplier? Here is how both work.

Fifteen spins where wins keep climbing

Land 4+ Scatter anywhere for 15 spins. The TOTAL MULTIPLIER counter persists. Multiplier Orbs landing on a winning tumble step add random values to it. Each win, tumble steps included, gets multiplied by the current TOTAL MULTIPLIER. Special reels add Scatter. 3+ Scatter retrigger +5 spins without resetting it.

Base GameBoosted wins

Land 8/10/12+ matching symbols

Set your bet and spin the 6x5 grid. 8/10/12+ matching symbols anywhere pay. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall, and new ones drop in. Tumbles repeat until no win is left. Orbs landing on a winning step are summed, and that sum multiplies the step's win.

Bet placedTumble wins

Plan your session knowing what stays random

Pick your bet size knowing the bonus round cannot be scheduled. How often it comes is not known in advance, and the result of one session is random whatever the RTP. The RTP of 96.50 describes the return over a very large number of spins, not over your next visit. Short sessions can finish well below the stake, and long ones can finish above it.

Read the game rules before your first stake, because they are the only place the RTP version here is shown. The version listed there is the one you play, whatever the lobby tile or a summary suggests.

Treat the maximum win as a ceiling, not a target. The game pays at most x5,000 of your stake, and that ceiling is reached very rarely. Set your budget and session limit before you spin, since a session can end anywhere below it.

Gates of Olympus Questions

Know What You Get on the First Spin

Quick answers on free spins, bonus buy, volatility, max win, demo and series versions before you play.

How are the free spins triggered in Gates of Olympus?

Four or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid trigger 15 free spins. During the free spins, special reels show more Scatter symbols, and three or more Scatter symbols add 5 more spins without resetting the TOTAL MULTIPLIER.

Can you buy the bonus in Gates of Olympus, and what does it cost?

Yes. Buy Free Spins costs 100 times the bet, which is A$500 at a A$5 bet. The Ante Bet adds 25 percent to the stake, or A$6.25 at a A$5 bet.

Is Gates of Olympus a high volatility slot?

Volatility is high in this slot. High volatility means bigger wins arrive less often, so a session can go long without a big win. No one can know in advance how a given session will go.

What is the max win on Gates of Olympus in A$?

The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet. At a A$5 bet, that is A$25,000, and at the highest bet of A$125 it is A$625,000. The multiple stays the same at every bet, so the money amount grows with the stake.

Can I try Gates of Olympus in demo mode before real money?

The lowest bet is A$0.20 a spin, so a small stake lets you try the rules first. The paytable is built on a A$0.50 bet, and the highest bet is A$125.

How is Gates of Olympus different from the other series versions?

The original Gates of Olympus runs at an RTP of 96.50 with a 5,000 times maximum win. Gates of Olympus POP leads the series with an RTP of 97.05, while Super Scatter has the highest maximum win at 50,000 times the bet.
