The latest slot game release from Malta based Pragmatic Play returns to an Ancient Greek theme that has been utilised so successfully in the past by casino game studios, with the Zeus series of slots from WMS / Scientific Games being arguably the most popular. Well Pragmatic Play have jumped on the bandwagon, with their Gates of Olympus online slot.
Available to play now at all online casinos which carry game content from Pragmatic Play, to include the Casinomeister Casino of the Year for 2020 All British Casino, Gates of Olympus takes players to the mythical home of the Greek Gods, in what is a slot game that is highly volatile!
Featuring an RTP of 96.5%, Gates of Olympus is a 5×6 slot providing fans of high variance slot machines a highly volatile experience. Gates of Olympus features 20 paylines for winning combinations to land on and a ‘Pay Anywhere’ system that pays out on clusters of eight or more. With tumbling wins and multipliers into the mix means all sorts of chaos can follow, increasing the potential for huge wins.
Naturally Gates of Olympus features the most famous Greek god of all in the form of Zeus, where he hovers on the right side of the screen and can trigger the multiplier feature at random with his godly powers. Players will see winged gemstones land on the reels when this happens, featuring multiplier values from 2x all the way up to 500x.
The bonus round is triggered by landing 4 or more Zeus Scatter symbols, with the multiplier increasing respectively with the appearance of more Scatters. Players will then be granted 15 Free Spins, with all multiplier symbols they land landed being added to the progressive global multiplier.
Commenting on the release of Gates of Olympus, Pragmatic Play’s Chief Business Development Officer Yossi Barzely, said: “Gates of Olympus is the latest Pragmatic Play title to draw influence from Greek mythology, and it looks likely to be our strongest yet.”
“With alluring gameplay and unique systems at play, the ‘Pays Anywhere’ function adds a whole new dynamic to the game. We expect our players across the globe to really enjoy this addition.”
The release of Gates of Olympus follows hot on the heels of Hands of Midas and Joker King, two other new slot games which have been released by Pragmatic Play during the month of February 2021.
