Olympus: Zeus Megaways Slot Review

Olympus: Zeus Megaways Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot comes with 6 reels and up to 117,649 ways to win. Of course, it’s powered by Big Time Gaming’s Megaways engine. Randomly on every spin, you will see each reel contain between 2 and 7 symbols each. Basically, the more symbols appearing on every reel, the more Megaways or ways to win. If 7 symbols appear on all 6 reels, you’ll benefit from 117,649 Megaways (6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 117,649).

Landing 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels in succession and beginning from reel 1 will constitute a winning combination. The only exception is the Zeus symbol as you need just 2 (or more) in combination.

You can play the Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot game from 20p to £20 per spin. As with all iSoftBet slots, click on the Casino Chip icon to the right of the reels (on the desktop version). Then use the plus and minus buttons to change your bet. Non UK players can opt for Auto Spins including loss and win limits. There is a Lightning Bolt icon which enables quicker spin speeds.

The Olympus: Zeus Megaways RTP is 96% which is exactly the online slots average. At time of writing, we don’t know whether there are other RTP versions but its best to check at the UK online casino you play at by heading to the Paytable. Volatility wise, it’s very high (9/10).

Again, we don’t know the hit frequency rate. This will be updated once it’s made available. Finally, Olympus: Zeus Megaways comes with 50,000 x bet max wins per spin. Key to bigger wins will be the multiplier in the free spins (more details below).

Theme – join the Greek god of the sky and thunder

With a Greek Mythology theme, the Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot takes place at Mount Olympus which is the home of the Greek gods. As a result, you will see mountains, dramatic skies and Zeus himself (holding a lightning bolt) floating in the backdrop. The soundtrack is truly exceptional and is very moving and uplifting.

On the reels, you will see gold coloured A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 playing cards. The higher value symbols include lyres, lions, the winged-horse Pegasus and Zeus. Zeus is obviously the best paying symbol with 2, 5, 10, 25 or 50 x bet awarded for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

Then you have the Gold Coin Wild symbol that substitutes for all paying symbols. Like Zeus, they pay 2, 5, 10, 25 or 50 x bet for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 across a way to win. The other symbol to look out for is the Zeus Scatter symbol which is key to triggering free spins.

Olympus: Zeus Megaways Mobile

Olympus: Zeus Megaways has been created using HTML5 technology. This means it can be enjoyed on mobile, laptop, PC and tablet devices. Being a Megaways slot game, I recommend a larger screen to have the full visual experience. However, if you’re a mobile player, you’ll be happy to learn it’s compatible with iOS, Android and Windows operating systems.

Olympus: Zeus Megaways Bonus Features

The Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot has 5 bonus features. With cascades and a random Max Megaways extra, Zeus can fire thunderbolts are random symbols transforming them into wilds. There is also the Zeus Free Spins feature where you can benefit from unlimited free spins and an infinite win multiplier.

Cascading Wins feature

When a winning combination lands, the Cascading Wins feature is triggered. Winning symbols are removed from the reels with new symbols replacing them. This gives you the chance to get another win. Cascades continue as long as new wins are formed. This is a common bonus feature found in countless Megaways slots such as Bonanza Megaways (by Big Time Gaming).

Max Megaways feature

During any spin, the Max Megaways feature can be triggered randomly. A unique background animation occurs and every reel will display the maximum number of symbols (i.e. 7). This means you’ll get a spin with 117,649 ways to win.

Zeus Wilds feature

Randomly on any spin, Zeus can fire thunderbolts onto the reels. Known as the Zeus Wilds feature, thunderbolts change random paying symbols into wilds. This can only be activated on an initial spin before cascades play out.

Zeus Free Spins feature

The Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot focuses on the Zeus Free Spins feature. This is played when you land 4 or more Zeus Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. 4, 5 or 6 scatters will award 12, 17 or 22 free spins respectively.

Like many Megaways games, you begin with a 1x multiplier. After every win, the multiplier increases by 1, with no limits. The multiplier can only rise and won’t reset between free spins. Moreover, 3 or 4 Zeus Scatters on the top row will give you 5 or 10 additional free spins. Again, with no limits. Finally, the Zeus Wild feature can be triggered randomly.

Now, players outside the UK can take advantage of the Buy feature. Buy your way into the Zeus Free Spins feature for a cost of 75 x your total bet. It’s unclear at time of writing if the RTP rate increases with this option.

Olympus: Zeus Megaways Review Summary – excellent graphics/soundtrack + win potential

The Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot follows a long line of games based on the ancient Greek god of the sky and thunder. That said, you won’t find many better looking slots than this. Additionally, the soundtrack is captivating, uplifting, epic and immersive.

In terms of the gameplay, the bonus features are commonly found amongst Megaways slots. Olympus: Zeus Megaways isn’t original in terms of the gameplay but it does offer popular extras that many of us love and are used to. It’s evident that the bigger wins will come in the Zeus Free Spins feature.

The unlimited win multiplier can rise infinitely to deliver max wins of 50,000 x bet per free spin. This is makes the Olympus: Zeus Megaways slot one of the best paying Megaways games. In summary, it offers familiar gameplay bit with a superb production quality and big win potential.

If you want big wins as well as more variety from the bonus features, iSoftBet’s very own Royale with Cheese Megaways slot would definitely be my choice. The Build a Burger feature sees you pick from menu items to use in the free spins.

iSoftBet has released 2 further slots in this series. You have Olympus Hades Megaways which also comes with 50,000 x bet max wins. The other option is Olympus: Raging Megaways which combines gameplay from both games, uses a Dual Reels mechanic and offers 25,000 x stake top wins.

If you want an ancient Greek theme and Megaways, Apollo Pays Megaways by Big Time Gaming is recommended. The gameplay is quite simple but it offers a high 96.56% RTP rate and 116,030 x bet max wins.
