How Gates of Olympus plays
Symbols pay when 8 or more of the same kind land anywhere on the 6x5 grid; winning symbols are removed and new ones tumble in. Multiplier orbs worth 2x to 500x can land on any spin and are applied to that tumble sequence's win. Four or more scatters give 15 free spins, during which every multiplier that lands on a winning tumble is added to a running total that boosts later wins.
Theme: Greek mythology, Zeus. Filed under Greek mythology.
Features in this game
- Pay anywhere: A pay system where enough of the same symbol anywhere on the screen wins, with no need to be adjacent or on a line.
- Cascading reels: After a win, the winning symbols are removed and new ones fall into the gaps, giving another chance to win from the same stake.
- Multipliers: A value such as ×2 or ×10 applied to a win, a spin or a whole feature, multiplying the amount paid.
- Free spins: A bonus round of spins played at no extra cost, usually triggered by scatter symbols and often with extra features.
What the figures mean
An RTP of 96.50% is a long-run average across millions of spins. It works out at a house edge of 3.50%, so every £100 staked costs £3.50 on average. A session of 200 spins at £1 stakes £200, and the expected cost of that session is £7.00, although the real result will usually land a long way either side. Work out your own figures.
The provider rates volatility as High. That describes how winnings are spread: higher volatility means longer runs with little back and rarer, larger wins. It does not change the average. More on volatility, or see it in a simulation.
