Gameplay and Design
As someone who loved the original Gates of Olympus, I was sceptical about the sequel. Could it really improve on a game that already had near-legendary status in the pokie world? The answer is yes!
The 6×5 grid nearly covers your entire screen, and the symbols are detailed and bright as lightning. The tumbling reels mechanic is active on every spin, meaning every time you land a win, those symbols explode and make way for new ones. I’ve had multiple moments where a simple 3x multiplier snowballed into a full-blown winning frenzy with back-to-back tumbles.
And Zeus, he floats on the right-hand side like a smug god waiting to flex. Occasionally, he’ll slam down a multiplier with a bolt of lightning, which can go as high as 1,000x. I’ll never forget the moment I hit a 250x multiplier during free spins and paired it with a tumble for a total win of 1,430x my stake.
The sound design is haunting, with sweeping orchestral swells and crackling lightning sound effects as if you are spinning in the middle of a mythological war zone.
