The Graphics
There’s a lot of rising going on at Play’n GO what with the Rise of Merlin and this Greek number, but I’m OK with that. Dough rises, after all!
Your reels are set on Mount Olympus and balance precariously on two ancient Greek pillars, but the background changes depending on which god is standing to the right of the grid. If it’s Zeus you’ll be transported high up above the clouds, with Poseidon a journey deep into the underwater kingdom, and with Hades, you’ll venture even deeper into the fiery underworld.
Meanwhile, the soundtrack to play is a booming orchestral number that adds suspense to your gameplay. Bravo! This slot is a visual masterpiece. There are a lot of games like Ring of Odin that seem to be heading up from Play’n GO. They are definitely on the rise!

Rise of Olympus Slot Game Play
The Rise of Olympus slot has five reels, five rows and a Cluster Pays win mechanic. You make winning combinations by landing three or more matching symbols in a row horizontally or vertically. This Greek Odyssey can be played with bets from 0.20 up to a maximum 100.00 per spin.
Your reel icons include the gods Hades, Poseidon and Zeus, plus harps, helmets, lightning bolts, and tridents, which represent each of these three gods. You’ll also see a Pegasus gold coin which will act as your wild icon, and replace all other symbols on the reels to make up more combinations for you.
This wild is also the most rewarding symbol on the pay table, and will give you 50x your bet for a five in a row!
The gameplay is accompanied by the three gods in all their half-naked powerful glory. Zeus, Poseidon and Hades stand to the right of your reels and each god will distribute different features in the base game.
Avalanche Drops
This game comes with Avalanche Drop reels. This means that all icons from winning combos will disappear, and new symbols will drop into the reels from the heavens above!
The Bonuses
Hand of God Feature
On any non-win spin, the Gods will give you an extra chance to win with one of these generous little extras:
Hades
The God of The Underworld will transform one set of symbols into another to help create more winning combinations.
Poseidon
The God of the Sea will add extra wild symbols to your reels.
Zeus
The God of all Gods will launch lightning fire at the reels to destroy two lots of symbols from the grid. This will create more avalanche drops, and avalanche drops make wins.
Wrath of Olympus Feature
The Wrath of Olympus bonus is set off when you fill the meter on the left of the grid.
To do this you must land three or more combos of god symbols – the Horn Helmet for Hades, the Trident for Poseidon and the Lightning Bolt for Zeus. Land five icons and you will fill three sections, four icons will fill two sections and three icons will fill one section. Each section will also give you a multiplier when it is filled going up to 5x.
Next all three of the omnipotent Gods will release their special features onto the reels in turn.
Free Spins Bonus
The Rise of Olympus free spins are set off if you manage to empty the entire grid of symbols. And this is no mean feat I can tell you…
You must choose from three options: the Hades, Poseidon or Zeus free spins, which award four, five and eight free spins respectively with the chance to recharge for four more, three more, or two more turns.
The fewer spins you have, the higher the winning potential.
The Hand of God feature will also be active which will boost your bank balance, but best of all, the win multiplier will not be reset between the spins, and can reach the heavenly heights of 20x!
All in all, this is one of the better free spins bonuses we have seen out there.

The Monkey Verdict
The gameplay in the Rise of Olympus slot is as epic as they come, which also means you could be a bit befuddled when you first fire up the reels. But spin a few rounds and it will soon make sense.
And with that 20x Multiplier in the Free Spins, what have you got to lose? A decent medium-high variance release with some good visuals and an entertaining base game.
