Greek mythology is a theme that online slot developers love to use, and at this point, I’m not even sure I could guesstimate how many titles there are out there for players to choose from in this genre. So, one more won’t hurt, will it? That was the thinking of Pragmatic Play anyway, as they introduce us to their title Zeus Vs Hades: Gods of War. This 5-reel video slot comes with the vital stats of 15 paylines, an RTP of 96.07% and a maximum win of 15,000x bet.
We’ve got an interesting feature set to get stuck into, starting with the choice of volatility as the game begins. Selecting Olympus mode will offer a less volatile experience, whilst choosing Hades will ramp the variance up to the max. Next, we’ve got expanding multiplying wilds that can land on any reels, with Zeus and Hades having a mini battle before the reel reveals a multiplier of up to 100x. Finally, we’ve got the free spins mode triggered when three scatters land in view. During this mode, any expanding wilds that land will become sticky and remain in place for the entire bonus.
So who are you picking? Team red or blue? Why not try both and see which you think is best in the free demo slot of Zeus Vs Hades: Gods of War? It’s available to play below.

Zeus Vs Hades Gods Of War Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
It’s been said many a time here at Demoslot that Pragmatic Play is a machine when it comes to churning out slot content, and it would seem that they have a few goto genres when looking to produce their next potential masterpiece. Greek Mythology is undoubtedly one of the topics discussed in their ready room at each meeting, with countless titles already in their portfolio under this theme if you want to check them out, such as Gates of Olympus, and Gates of Hades, both of which are great slots in their own right. So, how will Zeus Vs Hades shape up? A hit or a miss? Let’s find out more.
Starting with the paytable, we see three symbols vying for dominance at the top spot. We’ve got Zeus, Hades, and the Wild, all sharing that space and paying 20x bet for a five of a kind win. Next, we’ve got pegasus/wolves, at 10x bet, followed by the eagles, valued at 10x for a complete line of five. Finishing off the premium symbols, we have the helmet and challis, both of which award 5x for a full payline of five. That leaves the low pays represented by the ever-present royal symbols 10, J, Q, K, and Ace. Hit any five of a kind of these symbols, and you’ll be awarded 1x bet.
Pragmatic always likes to keep their wager selection simple, so utilise the plus and minus symbols to select your stake from a minimum of €0.10 to a maximum of €100. As always with the provider, there are plenty of intermediate options between these values to suit any player’s budget.
Base Game & Modifiers
Before you even lay eyes on the format of the game, you’ll be asked to choose your variance level once the slot has loaded up. You can opt for Olympus mode, which will trigger the free spins more often, but likely pay less, to the more volatile Hades Mode, which triggers less frequently but has the potential to pay more. What will you choose? Think big, win big? Or play it safer?
As for the game itself, players are treated to a 5×5 reel set comprising 15 paylines in total, which is perhaps a little disappointing, as you can often think you’ve got a win when actually, you haven’t managed to land the symbols on an active payline at all. Speaking of which, to give your balance a boost from the gods and hit a winning combo, you’ll need to match a minimum of three symbols from left to right.
Expanding Wild Symbols
The wild symbols coloured blue in Olympus mode and red in Hades mode can land in view on any of the five reels. Once they hit, they will expand the full length of the reel, and a mini battle will occur between Zeus and Hades, with the winner revealing a multiplier of up to 100x.
Zeus Vs Hades Gods Of War Slot Bonus Features
There is just one main free spins feature that can be triggered in either of the playing modes, and for this to be activated, you’ll need to land a scatter symbol on each of the reels 1, 3, and 5, with 10 free spins being awarded if this is achieved.
Free Spins
During the free spins feature, any wild that lands on the reel and expands will become sticky and lock in place for the entirety of the bonus. This gives you the potential for a dream set up of a full screen of multiplying wilds. Unfortunately, it is not possible to re-trigger this feature.
Bonus Buy
Players who have access to the bonus buy menu can choose from the following options if they wish.
Zeus Mode:
- Standard free spins: Costs 75x bet.
- Enhanced free spins with one guaranteed stick wild: Costs 300x bet.
Hades Mode:
- Standard free spins: Costs 150x bet.
- Enhanced free spins with one guaranteed stick wild: Costs 300x bet.
Pros
- Another aesthetically pleasing game from Pragmatic.
- Higher than average max win of 15,000x bet.
- Two game modes to choose from.
Cons
- 15 Paylines can be frustrating at times when you think you've won but haven't.
- A theme that has been milked to death across the industry.
Final Thoughts
You can never knock Pragmatic for the standard of their game production, and Zeus Vs Hades: Gods of War once again proves what a talented bunch they are over at PP headquarters. The game itself is pretty decent, too, with the sticky wilds in the bonus being the highlight and offering some decent big win potential, in my opinion. I could have perhaps scored this one slightly higher, but with such a repetitive theme that has been massively overused in the industry, it's hard to get up for a game where you know you'll have likely seen it all before a million times over.
