Gates of Olympus put Zeus on a 6×5 scatter-pays grid in February 2021, with tumbling wins and multiplier orbs worth 2x to 500x that can land in both the base game and free spins. Pragmatic Play’s page lists an RTP of 96.50%, OLBG rates it very high volatility, and the maximum win is 5,000x the bet. The official Gates of Olympus demo is on Pragmatic Play’s website.
Pragmatic Play later released the 1000 and Super Scatter versions. Of the three, this original has the lowest ceiling.

How the orbs and running multiplier work
- Tumble. Winning symbols disappear and new ones drop in, until no new win forms.
- Multiplier orbs. Orbs worth 2x to 500x can land on any spin, in the base game too, and multiply the win of that tumble sequence.
- Free spins. Four or more scatters award 15 free spins. In the round, each orb that lands on a winning sequence is added to a running total multiplier that applies to later wins in the round.
- Ante Bet. A higher stake that makes free spins more likely.
- Buy feature. Paid entry to free spins, not available in every market.
The running total is the key to the bonus: a free spins round that collects several orbs early can pay well on every later win. A round that collects none usually pays little.
The Gates of Olympus free slot on the studio site
Pragmatic Play’s official page for the game is titled as a demo and carries a full-screen game frame. We could not confirm from page text alone that it loads in Canada. The Gates of Olympus free slot on the studio page uses play credits, so no win there can be withdrawn. That makes it a good place to see how often the free spins land on a very high volatility game. Other free play options are covered in our free slots guide.
Which RTP version is your casino running?
Three settings exist: 96.50%, 95.51% and 94.5%. A two-point gap on $800 of stakes is about $16 of expected return. The figure in use appears in the game’s info screen. Compare with our high RTP slots list if you want games with stronger published returns.
