Theme

There are certain themes that inspire software developers time and time again. One of them is Ancient Greece and their Gods.

Various legends, stories, and myths …

… about powerful Greek pantheon, heroes and monsters have been igniting the human imagination for centuries now. The ruler of all gods and humans – Zeus, has more than a few slots with his name in the title.

Williams Interactive, better known as WMS…

…has been active on the gambling scene and producing some quality gaming equipment for many years now. This time, they decided to bring us another history-themed release inspired by the mighty Zeus.

In the background…

…we can see the top of Mount Olympus, the dwelling place of Gods, surrounded by big white clouds. Graphics and design are stunning. The music following the spinning reels creates a relaxing atmosphere and has an ethereal vibe.

Betting Options and Symbols

One thing players will notice immediately is that they have not 1 but 2 grids to look at. The first one, where the main game takes place, is a standard 5 x 4 grid while the other one is colossal 5 x 12. There are 100 paylines in total, 25 on the left screen and 75 on the right screen.

When it comes to betting options, …

… the range of the bet goes from 0.01 up to 5 $ per 2 lines. Max bet possible is 250 $ per spin which will appeal to high – rollers. Paylines are not fixed and player’s options in that regard are 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100.

AND…

…what about the symbols?!

Well, the low – value icons are standard J, Q, K, A, then vase, warrior helmet, and chariot. They will get you between x15 and x40 line bet.

The higher end of the paytable is reserved for Pegasus, Zeus’ throne and the Zeus himself. the first 2 will reward you with 50 x line bet for landing 5 while the Zeus will get you 100 x line bet.

Special Features

The wild symbol is represented by the Greek temple and it can substitute all symbols except Scatter. It doesn’t appear on the colossal reel set but 4 stacked Wilds on the main grid will transfer to the corresponding reel on the colossal grid making it into a Wild reel.

NOW:

As sky God, Zeus controls thunder and lightning which he often uses as a weapon.

Hand holding lightning aka Scatter appears only on 1^st, 3^rd and 5^th column of both grids. Three and more will trigger the bonus spins and multipliers. Depending on the number of Scatters landed, the reward can be 10, 15, 20 and 30 spins in combination with 2x, 10x, 20x and 20x multipliers.

Conclusion

The two sets of reels represent an innovative approach to gameplay. It’s quite engaging but it might take a bit getting used to. Also, bonus spins in combination with multipliers and stacked Wild are great additions, increasing the overall appeal of the release.
