Rise of Olympus review

Theme and Style

This game is themed around Greek mythology.

Players will arrive upon an epic landscape where broken pillars of a temple suggest that a war is underway. As players meet iconic gods, they’ll help determine the fate of their realm.

This slot is a good fit for mythology lovers and fans of fantasy slots.

Visuals and Soundtrack

A mysterious string tune plays in the background, suggesting a sitar player in a candlelit hall. This music sets an exotic tone and feels right on theme for the game. The tune is unobtrusive and most players will probably opt to leave it playing.

Depending on the god in power, players will either see Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades standing majestically beside the reels. Each wears his own style of crown and iconic beard.

The god in power also sets the backdrop behind the reels, with Zeus bringing fluffy white clouds, Poseidon an undersea scene, and Hades a desolate landscape filled with sparks and lava.

The animation is high quality and suggests a superhero-style world of fantasy and drama.

The reels are packed with ancient icons such as golden harps, tridents, horned helmets, thunderbolts, and golden pegasi. These all fit in with the different gods’ kingdoms in different ways and feel right on-brand for the mythological theme.

Overall, the music and animation create an exotic and epic atmosphere.

Gameplay and Key Statistics

This game has five reels and five rows.

Players are awarded wins for landing 3 or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically. A symbol may be simultaneously part of different winning combinations.

When symbols are part of a winning combination, they are removed from the reels, and the symbols that remain drop down. Players will be awarded a win multiplier for each of these drops.

This game offers a return to player of 96%, roughly average for the industry.

The range of bets provided by this game ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.20 up to a maximum of $/£/€100 per spin.

With high volatility, this game will award payouts less often, but with larger wins.

Bonus Gameplay and Special Features

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols.

The Hand of God feature is triggered at random upon non-winning spins, prompting a special bonus feature from one of the three gods as follows:

• Hades: A set of symbols is transformed into another symbol.
• Poseidon: Up to two Wild symbols may appear.
• Zeus: Two sets of any symbol are destroyed.

A meter beside the reels charges with winning god symbols. There is an associated multiplier for filling up each of the meter’s three sections. When the meter is fully charged, players are awarded the Wrath of Olympus Free Round.

When players clear the reels, they trigger the Free Spins feature. They will have a choice of three options with varying degrees of risk. Should players recharge the meter during the feature, they will receive additional free spins:

• Hades: 4 free spins with 4 additional free spins for recharging.
• Poseidon: 5 free spins with 3 additional free spins for recharging.
• Zeus: 8 free spins with 2 additional free spins for recharging.

Players can be awarded up to 20 additional free spins.

Conclusion

We recommend this average RTP, high volatility Greek mythology-themed slot.

With decent RTP and gorgeous animation, this game is a solid choice.

Theming this slot around three iconic gods keeps it fun and engaging, so it is no surprise that this game is already popular.
