Gates of Olympus at Pandido Casino
Pragmatic Play's ancient-themed slot uses scatter pays and tumbling reels with multipliers. RTP is 96.50%, with high volatility: wins arrive less often and can be much larger.
What makes Gates of Olympus different
Symbols cascade and multiply. Gates of Olympus takes you to ancient Greece across a 6-reel, 5-row grid where symbols pay when 8 or more match anywhere on screen. Released in 2021, the slot combines mythology themes with a tumble mechanic: winning symbols vanish and new ones drop down, often creating chains of payouts in a single round. High volatility means wins come less often and can be much bigger. Each tumble step can be boosted by multiplier orbs that land during that step, adding their values together to increase your payout.
Know your comfort with big swings. You'll enjoy Gates of Olympus if you're comfortable with swings between wins and dry spells, and if you have a session budget that lets you play longer rounds without pressure. The slot suits players who like watching cascades build momentum. It's less suited if you prefer steady small wins or only play with tight session limits. Bets range from NZ$0.20 to NZ$125, and you can buy free spins at NZ$1,000 for a standard spin of NZ$10, so you choose how much chase and control you want.
How free spins multiply your wins. Free spins are where Gates of Olympus truly builds tension. Trigger 15 free spins by landing 4 or more scatters anywhere, and a multiplier counter starts ticking up every time an orb lands on a winning tumble step. Unlike base game tumbles where orbs boost only that step, free spin wins are all multiplied by your running total. You can retrigger 5 more spins without resetting the counter, so a lucky run of orbs can turn modest payouts into substantial ones before the feature ends.

How a round of Gates of Olympus unfolds
Learn what happens each time you press spin, from bet to result
Trigger free spins and watch multipliers build
Multiplier counter grows with every orb. Fifteen spins begin when four or more Scatter symbols land anywhere. A multiplier counter builds throughout: each Orb adds its value to the counter, which then multiplies every win. Scatters landing during the round give five more spins without resetting your counter.
How many symbols make a win? Six reels drop symbols that match and tumble down. Eight or more of the same symbol anywhere trigger a win. After each tumble, new symbols fall from above until no more wins form. Orbs landing on a winning tumble step sum their values and multiply that step's total.
Gates of Olympus outcomes you cannot control
