Gates of Olympus, a Greek myth tumble slot

Pick this slot if you want an Ancient Greece and Mythology setting on a 6x5 grid. Wins come from scatter pays: any eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid trigger a payout. After each win, the winning symbols vanish, the rest fall down and new symbols drop in from above. This tumble repeats until no new win forms, so one spin can pay several times.

Go for this slot when you want multipliers to build up. On a winning tumble step, Multiplier Orbs are summed, and the sum multiplies that step's win. Four or more Scatter symbols start 15 Free Spins. In Free Spins, TOTAL MULTIPLIER grows when orbs land on wins and multiplies every win. Three or more Scatter symbols add 5 spins without resetting the counter.

Scatters just landed

Gates of Olympus extras: stacking totals and retriggers

The common worry is when the bonus starts and whether the multiplier carries over.

Land four Scatters to start

Four or more Scatters anywhere start 15 free spins. The TOTAL MULTIPLIER counter persists, and each orb on a winning tumble step adds its random value. Every win, tumble steps included, is multiplied by the current counter. 3+ Scatters retrigger 5 more spins without resetting it.

Base Game reels15 free spins

What happens when symbols disappear?

Scatter pays start at 8, 10 or 12+ matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid. Winning symbols disappear, the rest fall and new ones drop in, repeating until no win. Multiplier Orbs on a winning step are summed, and that sum multiplies the step's total win.

Ready to bet

Walk through each stage before you press play

Settles what happens between your bet and the payout, so you know each step before you spin.

  1. How high can my bet go?

    Choose a bet from A$0.20 up to A$125 before each round. Examples on this page use A$0.40, A$0.50 and A$5, but the bet you pick sets the stake for the round.

  2. Count eight matching symbols

    Spin, then look for 8 or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall, and new ones drop in until the tumbles stop.

  3. Read the total on each step

    Look for Multiplier Orbs landing on a tumble step that already wins. Their values are added together, and that sum multiplies the step's total win.

  4. The moment four Scatters land

    Watch for 4 or more Scatter symbols anywhere to start 15 free spins. The TOTAL MULTIPLIER counter carries across every spin, and 3 or more Scatters add 5 more spins.

  5. Gates of Olympus bonus timing

    Set your session limit before the first spin. How often free spins arrive cannot be known in advance, so a session can pass with no bonus at all.

A bonus shortcut in dollars

Buying the free spins costs 100 times the bet, which is A$500 at the example top bet of A$5.

Which payback setting runs here

Before you bet, see RTP as an average: of every A$100 staked, it is the share paid back over many spins, not in one session. The version Luckystar Casino runs is in the game rules.

Known rules before the spin, unknown outcome during it

Deciding how long to play Gates of Olympus starts with one fact: the bonus round cannot be timed. How often it lands is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP, so a short session can pay well and a long one can stay flat.

Checking the RTP version means opening the game rules, because that is the only place the version in play is shown. Make that check before you set a session budget, not after the first spin, when the money is already moving.

Weighing whether the top prize is worth chasing starts with its size: the maximum win of Gates of Olympus is x5,000 the bet. That ceiling is reached very rarely, so treat it as a limit on the top payout, not a target for any session.
