Pragmatic Play · 2023
Gates of Olympus 1000 is a high volatility 6x5 slot from Pragmatic Play, set in ancient Greece. The figures, round flow and bonus modes follow below.
The demo is free. The real game needs an account and players aged 18+.
On the 6x5 grid, symbols pay anywhere, so no paylines decide a win. Eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the reels make a win. After each win, the winning symbols disappear and new ones fall from above, which is the tumble. The theme is Ancient Greece and mythology, and the symbols are crowns, rings, chalices, an hourglass and coloured gems, plus the Zeus Scatter.
Multiplier orbs land at random during tumbles, and their combined value multiplies the whole sequence total. In Free Spins, each multiplier landing on a winning spin adds to a total that never resets. Four or more Scatters start the Free Spins, and three during them add five spins. Double Chance mode adds extra Scatters on special reels, which doubles the natural Free Spins rate.

Clear rules, fewer surprises
Read this before your first spin, when you choose a bet and set your limit.
Choose a bet from A$0.20 up to A$125 before the first spin. Every win is a multiple of that bet, so a larger stake pays larger sums.
Eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid pay, with no paylines. Winning symbols vanish, new ones fall in, and the tumble repeats without a limit.
Orbs land at random with values from 2x to 1000x, and their sum multiplies the whole tumble total.
Land four or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the grid to start 15 Free Spins. Three or more Scatter symbols during Free Spins add 5 more spins.
Decide your limit before the first spin, because no session result can be known in advance. Stop once you reach the amount you set.

Three modes to know
After this, you will know how each mode starts and what each one gives you.
4+ Zeus Scatter symbols anywhere start 15 free spins. A total multiplier builds across the round and never resets: each multiplier orb on a winning spin adds its value permanently. 3+ scatters retrigger +5 spins, special reels stay active, and a 15000x cap is enforced.
Base game spins15 free spins
Spins run on a 6x5 pay-anywhere grid at a 20x bet multiplier. Winning symbols vanish and new ones drop in from above, with no tumble limit per spin. Multiplier orbs land randomly with values from 2x to 1000x. Their values are added and applied to the full tumble total.
Bet placedTumble wins
Double Chance runs at a 25x bet multiplier, which is 1.25x the standard bet. Extra Zeus Scatter symbols on special reels double the natural frequency of Free Spins.

The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs a Johnnykash Casino account and players aged 18 or over.
Play for moneyEvery spin lands a fresh set of symbols at random, and winning symbols tumble away to make room for new ones. Free Spins start once enough Scatter symbols land, but how often that happens is not known in advance. The result of one session is random too, whatever the RTP version.
Nothing on the reels tells you which RTP version is running, because that detail appears only in the game rules. Open the rules before your first spin and read the RTP shown there. The table shows what each version means in money.
Multiplier orbs land on the reels at random and add up, then multiply the total of a whole tumble sequence. The maximum win is a ceiling reached very rarely, so treat it as the top of the scale rather than an expectation.
Gates of Olympus 1000
We set out every rule and figure plainly, so you can judge the game before your first stake.
Double Chance adds extra Scatter symbols to special reels and costs 1.25 times the standard bet. Its maximum win is 15,000 times the bet, against 5,000 for the original Gates of Olympus. Gates of Olympus Super Scatter reaches 50,000 times the bet.
Four or more Zeus Scatter symbols anywhere on the grid start 15 free spins. Landing three or more Scatter during the free spins adds 5 more spins. Special reels are active throughout, and the total multiplier from earlier wins keeps building until the round ends.
The slot comes in two RTP versions, 96.49% and 96.50%. RTP is the average return across a very large number of rounds, so it says nothing about what one session will pay. The two versions sit very close together.
The maximum win is 15,000 times the bet. At the A$2 example bet, that is A$30,000, and at the highest bet of A$125 it reaches A$1,875,000. How often such a win lands cannot be known in advance.
Yes, the Buy Free Spins option costs 100 times the bet, which is A$200 at the A$2 example bet. It is offered in the Base Game and is disabled while Double Chance is active.
You can start at the lowest stake of A$0.20 a spin and watch how a round runs before raising the bet. Bets run from A$0.20 up to A$125, so the first session can stay small.
