Gates of Olympus 1000 - What you need to know

Playing Gates of Olympus 1000
How to Set Your Stake
Before playing for those wins, you’ll need to set your stake, which you can do in two ways - either by opening the menu button or by using the plus and minus symbols on the main gaming screen.
How to Spin the Reels
That’s it! Just hit the spin button to play! To hit a winning combination, it works in a slightly different way to standard slots. Because of its Scatter Pays mechanism, you just need to get 8 matching symbols anywhere on the reels.
Bonus Rounds in Gates of Olympus 1000
The main bonus features are as follows:
Tumble Feature
When you hit a win, you’ll trigger the Tumble Feature and once this happens, all of the symbols that contributed to the win will disappear from the reels, and new symbols will tumble down to fill up the empty spaces. This means that there’s the potential for new winning combinations and this continues for as long as there are no new winning combinations.
Multiplier Symbols
These can appear anytime, anywhere, thanks to Zeus' power. These symbols can come with all different values, ranging from 2x to a massive 1000x. When the tumble sequence comes to an end, the total multiplier value you get from these symbols will then be applied to your win.
Free Spins
If you land 4 or more scatter symbols, you’ll trigger the Free Spins feature and be awarded 15 free spins along with an instant win bonus based on how many scatters you got:
- 4 scatters = 3x your bet
- 5 scatters = 5x your bet
- 6 scatters = 100x your bet
During the free spins round, you can land extra scatters which will award you even more free spins. Three or more scatters will give you an extra 5 free spins.
In this round, the multiplier symbols are even better as every multiplier symbol that makes up part of a winning combination will be added to a persistent total multiplier. This essentially means that any wins with multipliers you get during the round will be multiplied by both the combined total multiplier and the multiplier symbols on the reels leading to the potential for massive payouts.
