The Forge of Olympus slot is all about scoring scatter pay wins anywhere on the screen. You do not have to worry about paylines. There are 6 reels and 5 rows in total. To score a win, at least 8 identical symbols have to appear anywhere on the screen. Payouts increase the more symbols you have in a combination.

There are 9 regular symbols in total. The 5 low-winning symbols appear as variously colored gems while the 4 high-wins are masterfully crafted items. There is also the scatter symbol which has its own payout. It is used as both a payout symbol and for triggering free spins.

In the base game, players also have the option of enabling autoplay below the spin button.

While playing the Forge of Olympus slot, you can customize your wagers to your liking. This includes the value of your coins and your bet. You can wager anywhere from €0.20 to €100 as the maximum bet. This will grant you the chance to win the maximum payout of 5000x the bet.

What we like about this slot is the RTP value which is a decent 96.25% albeit with high volatility. In terms of regular symbol payouts, the most you can get is for combinations between 12 and 30 identical symbols. In these cases, the low-win symbols will get you up to 10x the bet. The high-wins will get you up to 50x the bet. Furthermore, the scatter also has a payout with up to 6 possible symbols that can land for up to 100x the bet.

Another betting option you have is the ante bet which doubles your free spin chances for 1.25x the stake. Moreover, you can also automatically activate free spins by purchasing them for 100x up to 500x the bet with varying multiplier values.

The Forge of Olympus slot hides many extra features besides the scatter pay system. Let us cover them all one by one:

• Tumble – This Greek myth-themed slot game features cascading wins. After every win, the winning symbols will pay you and then disappear. New ones will take their place and allow you a chance for an additional win if there are winning combinations present. This continues until there are no more scatter pay combinations. In the lower left there is a useful widget that tracks your tumbles.
• Multiplier Symbol – The multiplier symbol can land randomly on all reels during spins and tumbles. Whenever it appears it multiplies your win by a random value between 2x to 100x. When tumbles end, the value of all multipliers is added for the final boost. This symbol appears in both the base game and free spins.
• Free Spins – When you land 4, 5 or 6 scatters you get 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively. The free spins mode has a progressive feature that starts at level 1 and increases with multiplier symbols that land. As you collect multiplier symbols and your level increases higher minimum multipliers are possible up to 50x to 100x. Free spins can be retriggered

Note that you can purchase free spins automatically at different levels by using the Buy Feature.
