Rise of Olympus Slot Review
Rise Of Olympus is a 5×5 grid online slots with cascading symbols. Stake sizes start at a modest 0.20 credits and peak at 100 credits. The game falls clearly into the high volatility category, although the generous RTP of 96.50% will help to avoid quick busts. Play the slot on your desktop, mobile and tablet devices across all OS platforms.
The Game Design of Rise of Olympus
Set on Mount Olympus at dusk with the sky coloured by the setting sun, the translucent game grid impresses with crisp graphics and stunning animations. The scene changes to daylight during the bonus game. The three gods appear on the right of the grid, alternating successively after they have applied their modifier on a spin. On the left is a meter that will trigger the Wrath of Olympus bonus game once it fills up as well as a display showing the winning amounts and multipliers on the current spin. A rather serene soundtrack changes into a dramatic crescendo on winning cascades, while a deep, godly voice announces the triggering of the reel modifiers.
Gameplay in Rise of Olympus
Pays are awarded for three, four or five matching symbols, appearing adjacent either horizontally or vertically on the 5×5 grid. Wins are also awarded for any combination of the three gods. After the win is paid, the winning symbols are removed, and the remaining symbols fall down to fill the empty place, potentially creating new winning clusters. When you get a win with three symbols, the wild symbol appears in the middle location after the other two are removed. It will be removed again if it forms part of a winning combo with four or five symbols. After each winning cluster the win multiplier is increased by x1. Clearing the grid completely or down to only wild symbols will trigger the free spins.
Rise of Olympus Features
Entering the free spins feature will keep the multiplier that was accumulated and allow players to choose from three options. Four free spins with the Hades reel modifier, five free spins with the Poseidon reel modifier or eight free spins with the Zeus reel modifier. The modifiers are triggered on each non-winning free spins.
Our Verdict
Rise Of Olympus is one of those high variance games that brings suspense and exhilaration into a gaming session. The win potential, even on smaller bets, is huge. Whether the Gods are on our side to unleash those wins is then a different question, we sure hope so as the slot is engaging and fun to play.
