Frequently asked questions
What is Gates of Olympus?
It is an online slot by the studio Pragmatic Play, released in 2021. It has no paylines: a win is awarded for eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6×5 grid, and random multipliers can increase it several times over.
How do you win at Gates of Olympus?
There is no way to win for certain. The result of every spin is random, and over time the slot's maths works in the casino's favour. A player can only choose the size of the bet, the pace and the amount they are prepared to spend.
What is the highest multiplier in the game?
In the original Gates of Olympus a single orb can reach 500×. Orb values are added together, and in the bonus round they also build up in a running total. In the 1000 and Xmas 1000 versions orbs go up to 1,000×.
How do you trigger the bonus round?
Four or more Scatter symbols have to land on one spin. The round consists of 15 free spins. The Ante Bet option makes it appear sooner, and the bonus buy starts it at once for 100 bets.
Can I play Gates of Olympus on a phone?
Yes. The slot runs in the browser on Android and iPhone and needs no installation. The game adapts to portrait and landscape orientation.
Is there a Gates of Olympus app?
The slot has no separate app. The game opens inside operators' sites and apps. APK files bearing the game's name that circulate through messengers and third-party sites are unsafe to install.
Is there a Gates of Olympus Megaways?
No. The series uses a pays-by-count mechanic on a fixed 6×5 grid. The provider has not released a version with a changing number of symbols per reel.
How is Gates of Olympus 1000 different?
In its top multiplier: up to 1,000× instead of 500×. The stated RTP is the same 96.50%, so the game behaves more sharply, with longer empty runs and bigger rare wins.
What is a Super Scatter?
A special symbol from the game Gates of Olympus Super Scatter. If the bonus is triggered with such symbols taking part, the player gets an instant prize: 100, 500, 5,000 or 50,000 bets for one, two, three or four Super Scatters.
Do the demo and the real game work the same way?
The rules and mechanics are identical. The currency, bet limits, RTP setting and bonus buy availability may differ, because the operator sets those.
Does the size of the bet affect the chance of winning?
No. The bet changes only the size of payouts. The probability of forming a combination, getting a multiplier or triggering the bonus is the same at any bet.
What is Ante Bet?
It is an optional 25% surcharge on the cost of a spin. In return there are more Scatter symbols on the reels and the bonus round lands about twice as often. Payouts are calculated from the base bet.
Why is a win sometimes smaller than the bet?
Low symbols pay less than one bet: eight blue gems, for instance, return only a quarter. The game shows this as a win even though the balance has gone down over the spin.
From what age can you play?
Gambling is for adults only. In Uzbekistan you may take part from the age of 18. The demo on this site is likewise intended for adult visitors.
