Sometimes a R0.20 price tag can trick you into thinking that a slot game is as simple as buying a pack of gums at the till. That’s where the Gates of Olympus can trick many players. The big mistake that most people make is looking only at the entry price. Although the price might be as low as R0.20, just know that this game pays in bigger amounts.
Gates of Olympus, a Pragmatic Play game, has easy-to-understand gameplay on a 6×5 grid. You get payouts when 8 or more symbols match. There are no confusing paylines to remember, only matching clusters and Zeus dropping multipliers.
Cheap spin
Here’s a tip that nobody tells you: just because you see a low minimum bet it doesn’t mean that the game is soft and forgiving. Even a R2 spin could behave like a R200 spin because this game is super volatile. If nothing happens after a few spins you might start getting impatient and try edging the bet up which can quickly get you into trouble.
Scatter truth
Second myth: The bonus round will fix everything. Well, that’s a lie. If you get four scatters, you’ll get 15 spins, which is great, but what you really need to focus on are the multipliers. If you trigger the bonus round, the multiplier symbols will keep adding to your running total and can reach as high as 500x. It’s amazing, but the bonus is only good if the paying tumble lands with the bonus. The YesPlay website has made it super easy to find under Pragmatic Play, and the page also has Free Spins and Buy Spins, which will tell you all you need to know.
Numbers first
Myth number three: if a game has a mythology theme, then it must look great, but will probably have a low RTP. However, Gates of Olympus is listed at a respectable 96.5% RTP, with a top payout of 5,000 times the bet. In other words, you probably won’t be able to get steady pocket money, but you’ll have chances at hitting a very big prize.
