Gates of Olympus: a Greek myth game explained

Pick this slot if you want Ancient Greece imagery on a 6x5 grid. A win pays when 8 or more matching symbols land anywhere on the grid. After each win, the winning symbols disappear, the remaining symbols fall down and new ones drop in from above. This tumble repeats until no further win forms. The whole sequence plays out within one spin, which can hold several wins in a row.

Pick it if you want multipliers that carry into the free spins. Four or more Scatter symbols trigger 15 free spins. A total multiplier counter adds the value of each orb that lands on a winning step. It multiplies every win, tumble steps included, and carries across all spins. Three or more Scatter symbols add 5 more spins without resetting the counter.

Round walkthrough

From a bet to a settled round

Betya Casino lays out each round in order, so you know what happens before you spin.

  1. Gates of Olympus bet range

    Pick a bet between A$0.20 and A$125 before the first spin. Each base game spin is staked at the bet you set, and every win scales with that bet.

  2. Gates of Olympus tumble chain

    Look for eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall, and new ones drop in until no win is left.

  3. Landing on a winning step

    Watch for Multiplier Orbs on each winning tumble step. The orb values on that step are summed, and the sum multiplies that step's total win.

  4. Keep the multiplier through retriggers

    Land four or more Scatter symbols anywhere to start 15 free spins. A retrigger needs three or more Scatter symbols and adds 5 spins, and the TOTAL MULTIPLIER carries on.

  5. Keep to a limit you chose

    Set a loss limit and a time limit before the first spin. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 if play gets out of hand.

Buy Free Spins and the ante bet

Choose the bet first, since Buy Free Spins costs 100 times the bet: at A$1 that is A$100, and the ante bet adds 25 percent.

Read the payout rate before you spin

Judge the return before you stake. Per A$100 staked, the return to player is 96.50 percent, or A$96.50 back on average over a long run. The version here is shown in the game rules.

Gates of Olympus rules

Retriggers, counters and special reels

The worry this part removes: when the bonus starts and how it changes a win.

When 4+ Scatter symbols land

Landing 4+ Scatter anywhere starts 15 spins. A TOTAL MULTIPLIER counter runs across them, and each orb on a winning tumble step adds its random value to it. Every win is multiplied by the current total. 3+ Scatter retriggers +5 FS without resetting it. Special reels add more Scatter.

Base game spins15 free spins

Watch each tumble settle

The grid is 6x5, and 8/10/12+ matching symbols anywhere pay out. Winning symbols disappear, the rest fall down, and new symbols drop from above. This repeats until no win is left. Multiplier Orbs on a winning step are summed, and that sum multiplies the step's total win.

Trial play versus cash stakes

Most players fear a test run will quietly drain their balance. The demo takes no money.

Choose the demo to learn the rules before you stake. It needs no money and pays nothing, while real play needs an account and age 18+.

Before the first spin, nothing is certain

Deciding how long to keep spinning cannot rest on when the bonus round arrives, because nobody knows that in advance. Every spin is random, so the number of free spins triggered in one session is random too. Whatever the RTP, the result of one session is random, and a long quiet run does not mean a win is due.

Before you stake, open the game rules and find the RTP version. That screen is the only place the lobby states which version runs for Gates of Olympus, so do not assume it from the name of a series entry. Each series entry carries its own RTP and maximum win.

Choose your stake by what you can afford to lose, not by the top prize on the paytable. The maximum win is a ceiling of 5,000 times the bet, and it is reached very rarely. Nothing on this page promises that outcome, so treat the ceiling as a limit, not a goal.

Budget, pauses and deposit caps

You must be 18 or older. In Australia, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 or self-exclude through BetStop.

Limit first, spin second

Decide how much you can lose before the first spin, and write it down. Keep that amount separate from money for bills and food.

Stop after a win?

Choose your stop point before you start, and keep it even after a win. A big win does not change the plan you set.

Deposit and loss caps

Use the deposit and loss limits in your account before you play, and check them when you change the bet. Limits only help if they are set.

Is it still fun?

Take a break when the game stops being fun, or self-exclude. Stepping away is a normal choice, not a failure.

From a small opening bet to a larger one

At Betya Casino, every answer comes with its figures, so you decide from them.

What are the Gates of Olympus bet limits in Australia?

The smallest bet is A$0.20 and the highest bet allowed is A$125. The paytable uses the same A$0.20 bet, so its figures are easy to check. Start low until you understand how a round runs.

Can I try Gates of Olympus in demo mode first?

The lowest stake is A$0.20, so a first session can start at the smallest bet. Check the paytable before you raise the bet. Set a limit before the first spin, because real money is at stake from the start.

How volatile is Gates of Olympus, and what does high mean?

High volatility means results swing widely from spin to spin. The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet, so a win of that size is possible but never promised. Set your budget around the swings, not around a hoped-for big hit.

How does Gates of Olympus differ from the other series versions?

This is the original version, with the lowest maximum win in the series at 5,000 times the bet. Gates of Olympus POP pays a higher RTP, and Super Scatter reaches a maximum win of 50,000 times the bet.
