Game Overview
We’re treated to some of the greatest spectacles on Earth when the biggest sporting events take place, and other than the Football World Cup, the most popular of these is the Olympics, so it would make perfect sense for a game operator to get stuck into this niche and create an online slot with the theme. Perhaps more by luck than judgement, developer Pragmatic Play has a very successful Gates of Olympus game franchise, so with a little play on words, the creation of Games in Olympus allows them to produce yet another clone of their original whilst also digging into the origins of the Olympics themselves.
I’m sure you’ll all have played enough variations of this game to know what the crack is by now, but just in case you’re new to this slot style, let’s have a quick run-through of the features. Games in Olympus is a tumbling reels slot, so all winning combos result in the symbols from the win being removed from the playfield, potentially giving you more chances to hit further paying connections. The biggest part of the game comes via Zeus at the side of the reels and the free spins bonus round. During this round, any multiplier symbols that appear on the reels are stored in a global multiplier, and each time a new multiplier hits at the same time as a win, the total value will be applied to your win.
Yes, it’s another clone of a popular slot, but they must keep getting played, or why else would Pragmatic Play continue to make them? To get stuck into the latest release off the Pragmatic production line, head down to our Games in Olympus slot demo; it’s free to play below.
Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
The number of games now featuring these same mechanics just wrapped in a different theme from Pragmatic is getting to the stage where there are too many to count, but hey, players seem to love these styles of slots, so you can’t fault PP for milking their cash cow for as long as possible. If you’d like to try out some of the higher-paying games in this niche, I’d suggest firing up our Gates of Olympus 1000 demo, the Gates of Gatot Kaca 1000 demo, and the Starlight Princess 1000 demo.
Will there be some Olympic sized prizes on offer in Games in Olympus? Well, things start well with the Scatter symbol being the highest value symbol in the game, returning 100x the bet when six appear in view. The Olympic Torch follows worth 50x, with the Wreath next at 25x, a Harp at 15x, and the Pot valued at 12x the bet when 12 or more appear in view. As for the lower-value symbols, these depict events from the games, with the Chariot Racing paying 10x, Wrestling at 8x, the Discus at 5x, whilst the Javelin and Running symbols award 4x and 2x, respectively.
Those of you wishing to try out Games in Olympus for real money have several options to choose from, with the minimum stake required to spin the reels starting at €0.20 and the standard maximum price per play reaching €100.
Base Game & Modifiers
Played over a 6×5 reel configuration, Games in Olympus is a scatter-pays slot where wins are awarded if 8 or more matching symbols appear anywhere within the playfield. All wins trigger the tumbling reels feature, which removes winning symbols and replaces them with new ones for extra chances to win.
Multiplier Symbols
Special symbols containing multiplier values ranging from 2x to 500x can appear in the base game and free spins round. At the end of a spin, any multipliers in view will be added together and applied to any wins achieved.
Ante Bet
The ante-bet option allows you to increase the cost of your wager by 25%, giving you double the chance of triggering the free spins round.
Games In Olympus Slot Bonus Features
The free spins bonus round on Games in Olympus is triggered when four or more bonus scatter symbols land in view. Once the feature is activated, players are awarded 15 free spins.
Free Spins Feature
Whilst the free spins are active, any multipliers that appear on the reels as part of a win are collected in a global multiplier. If a new multiplier lands simultaneously as a win, the total value of the global multiplier will be applied to the win.
Bonus Buy
Instant access to the free spins feature can be gained via the feature buy button for 100x the current bet.
Pros
- The respin feature can actually pay quite well, helping to keep your bankroll going.
- High standard of development and the usual excellent intro from Play'n Go.
Cons
- Low max win of 5,000x.
Games In Olympus Slot Review Final Thoughts
Ankh of Anubis isn't going to be pulling up any trees, that's for sure, but at least it is a Play'n Go entry into the Egyptian slot niche, which doesn't include the expanding symbol bonus round.
