About Gates of Olympus
Gates of Olympus went live on 13 February 2021 and became the template Pragmatic Play has been rebuilding ever since. The grid is 6 reels by 5 rows with no paylines at all: it is a pay-anywhere game, so you win by landing 8 or more matching symbols anywhere on the 30 positions. Winning symbols vanish, the rest drop down and new ones fall in — the tumble continues until a drop produces nothing.
The headline numbers are an RTP of 96.50%, very high volatility and a maximum win of 5,000x your stake. Bets run from €0.20 to €100, rising to €125 with the Ante Bet on. As with every Pragmatic title, several certified builds exist and the operator picks one: alongside 96.50% there are versions at 95.51% and 94.50% in circulation. The active figure is written in the game's information panel, and it is worth thirty seconds of your time before the first spin.
The paytable is steep. The crown pays 10x, 25x or 50x your total stake for 8-9, 10-11 or 12+ symbols, the hourglass 2.5x to 25x, the ring 2x to 15x and the chalice 1.5x to 12x. The four coloured gems sit far lower, from 0.25x up to 10x for a full twelve-symbol cluster. That is why the base game feels thin on its own: without a multiplier attached, even a decent tumble chain rarely clears the cost of the spins that produced it.
The whole game is really about the multiplier orbs. Zeus drops them at random in the base game and in free spins, carrying a value between x2 and x500. When a tumble sequence ends in a win, every orb that landed during it has its value added up and applied to the total. The free spins change one rule and that rule is everything: there, the accumulated multiplier persists across the entire round instead of resetting each spin, so a big orb in spin two is still working on spin fourteen. Four or more Zeus scatters trigger 15 free spins, and the trigger itself pays 3x, 5x or 100x your stake for four, five or six scatters. Three more scatters during the round add 5 spins.
Two shortcuts exist. The Ante Bet raises your stake by 25% and roughly doubles the rate at which scatters appear; the bonus buy costs 100x and drops you straight into the free spins. Neither changes the RTP — they change how your money is distributed between base game and bonus. The bonus buy is unavailable in several regulated markets, the UK included.
