Game Overview

I’m back with another new Pragmatic Play demo and review (yes, there are a lot of them consistently), and this time, I’m taking a look at Gates of Olympus Dice, a title that has me mightily confused, as on paper, it is exactly the same as the original. The symbol payouts, bonus features, multipliers, RTP, and staking options are identical. Even the Ancient Greek God theme is the same, although we now have dice as the symbols. I’m past the point of trying to understand the reasoning behind Pragmatic Play creating so many clones – so let’s just get into the review, starting with the core stats. Gates of Olympus Dice is a 6-reel and 5-row scatter pays slot with a 96.50% RTP and a 5,000x max win.

I suppose if you’re going to go down the cloning route, you’re better off picking a slot that’s already proved a big success – and let’s be honest, Gates of Olympus is a great game. So, by simple logic, Gates of Olympus Dice is also a great slot. You can now play the game with two different sets of symbols – that’s variety for you. That’s where the variety ends, however, as you still get the same admittedly good 2x to 500x random multipliers in the base game and free spins bonus – which in the latter add to a progressive multiplier that never resets.

Whether you’re curious to check out some dice, are convinced there must be other differences between the two slots, or never had luck on the original, so want to see if this latest release serves you better – check out the Gates of Olympus Dice demo slot below. It’s free and just a click away.

Gates Of Olympus Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Gates of Olympus Dice slot paytable

Gates of Olympus Dice isn’t the only successor to the original title that went on to win awards and countless fans around the iGaming world – in fact, it’s the third in the Gates of Olympus slots series to date, following Gates of Olympus 1000. At least the sequel proved different, if only due to the random multipliers now holding values of up to 1,000x the stake and thus an increased max win of 15,000x. So, how will this latest version shape up in the grand scheme of things? Let’s dig in and find out.

It’s the paytable next, and the jewellery and gems of the original have been replaced with dice symbols, although they still have the same payout values. The Scatter remains the top paying symbol, with 100x the stake up for grabs when 6 or more land on the reels. As for the regular symbols, the Blue Five returns 50x the stake, but as with all the remaining symbols, you need at least 12 matching instances on the reels. The Green Four, Purple Three, Red Two, and Yellow One deliver rewards worth up to 25x, 15x, 12x, and 10x, respectively. The lower pays are also represented by Dice symbols, although they’re all the same traditional dice colour. The Five rewards you with 8x the stake when 12 or more land, the Four delivers 5x, and the Three and Two pay 4x and 2x for winning combos of 12 or more.

There’s nothing to complain about regarding the betting range Gates of Olympus Dice offers. There are minimum/maximum permitted bets of €0.20 and €125.00 per spin, respectively.

Gates Of Olympus Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Gates of Olympus Dice slot base game

Honestly, if you’ve played Gates of Olympus, you already know what you’ll get during the base and bonus games – but I’ll repeat it to all who haven’t so they can understand what to expect on Gates of Olympus Dice. The slot uses a pay anywhere (scatter pays) mechanic over a 6×5 reel formation, which essentially means 8 or more matching regular symbols in any position bring you a payout.

Reel Tumbles

Any symbols involved in a winning combination vanish from the reels via the tumbling reel mechanic, creating space for more symbols to drop into the action. That can lead to more wins, cascades, and payouts, with the process only stopping once no new wins occur.

Multiplier Symbols

Multiplier symbols can also help beef up the payouts from the symbol combos – sometimes quite significantly. They can hold values of between 2x and 500x the stake and will apply to the overall win from the spin. Better yet, land multiple instances of these symbols and their values are combined before they’re applied to the win.

Ante Bet

An Ante Bet option can be activated at the cost of 25% on top of your normal stake, which will increase your chances of triggering the bonus round.

Gates Of Olympus Slot Bonus Features

Gates of Olympus Dice slot free spins feature

I already mentioned the scatter symbol is the top-paying symbol on the reels of the Gates of Olympus Dice slot – offering 100x the stake for a 6-symbol combination. Well, it’s more than that, as 4 or more anywhere in view will trigger the bonus game and award you 15 free spins.

Free Spins Feature

One of the main reasons, okay, the main reason Gates of Olympus is one of the most-played slots in recent times, is the free spins bonus with a persistent progressive multiplier. It increases when new multiplier symbols land and add their values between 2x and 500x – and does not reset between spins. You can imagine possible potential multipliers by the time you reach the latter spins. Well, it’s precisely the same bonus here on Gates of Olympus Dice, right down to the ability to trigger an additional 5 spins by landing 3 or more scatters from within the bonus.

Bonus Buy

To guarantee 4 or more scatters on your next spin and triggering the free spins bonus instantly, you can use the bonus buy at a cost of 100x the stake.

Pros

Offers a variation on the original symbols.

Cons

Just a clone of the original.

Gates Of Olympus Slot Review Final Thoughts

If you're bored of the symbols on the original, or this one comes up first when searching in a casino lobby, it's more than worth playing. The multipliers in the base game, and even more so in the free spins bonus, can lead to some cracking cascade wins.
