Cats of Olympuss Slot

Cats of Olympuss Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Cats of Olympuss slot game has a 5 x 3 layout with 243 ways to win. However, the grid transforms to up to 4 reel matrices during the bonus round. To form a winning combination, you must land 3 or more symbols on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel.

You can spin the reels with as little as 10p and a maximum of £100. To adjust the bit size, tap the coins icon on the interface and select a stake amount. There is an Autoplay function where you can play up to 100 autospins, and also a Turbo spin to increase the game speed. However, these features are not available at UK online casinos.

The Cats of Olympuss RTP is 96.31%, above the standard average at the best payout slots. Some online operators offer lower RTP variants of 94.26%, 88.67%, and 85.61%. It has a medium volatility, taking a different turn from Push Gaming’s signature high-variance slots. As such, you can expect a balance between risk and reward.

The max win is 13,195x the bet. With the chance to land stacked wild multipliers and hit x1,000 in Instant Prizes, the max payout is within reach.

Theme – Watch the Mythical Felines Take Over Olympus

Unlike Exotic Cats and other players’ favourite cat-themed online slots, Cats of Olympuss does not take place in a jungle, vibrant party, or even a desert. Instead, it is set in “Catcropolis,” a fictional realm where cats ascend and return with gifts from the gods.

The grid is laid against a pink-coloured Ancient Greek temple with cute feline creatures replacing the human-like deities on the pillars. During the bonus round, you are transported to a blue-coloured temple with similar sculptures but more immersive aesthetics.

The animations are amusing- the purple-faced Zeus Cat caught my attention with its glowing eyes and ability to hurl thunderbolts. However, the soundtrack didn’t add much to my gaming experience; I was expecting something more classic that resonates with the Ancient Greek era.

Cats of Olympuss Mobile

As with all new online slots by Push Gaming, Cats of Olympuss was developed with HTML5. As a result, it runs smoothly on desktops, tabs, and mobile. Even more, the technology ensures cross-browser compatibility and faster loading times. However, I didn’t have a seamless experience playing the slot at mobile casinos.

Cats of Olympuss Bonus Features

As with Pushing Gaming’s best online slots, Cats of Olympuss is packed with bonus features, including free spins, stacked wilds, and bonus buys, as well as Instant Prize, a unique, rewarding feature.

Scatter Symbols

The Cats of Olympuss slot has 2 types of scatter symbols: basic scatter symbol and double scatter symbol. While they can only land on reels 2, 3, and 4, the double scatter symbol counts as two scatter symbols. You can unlock the free spins feature by landing 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels in the base game.

Stacked Wild Symbols

Like basic Wilds, Stacked Wilds substitute for other symbols on the reel, except bonus symbols, to help create winning combinations. However, when they land, they cover the whole reel and count as 1 symbol.

Stacked Wilds have multiplier values attached to them, ranging from x2 to x8. Even more rewarding, if a winning combination has more than 1 Stacked Wilds, their multipliers are multiplied together.

In addition, Stacked Wilds remain sticky on the reels when they land during free spins.

Instant Prize

Instant Prize symbols are typically bet multipliers that can randomly land on the reels in the base game and bonus round. They pay when you hit a winning combination with 2 or more wild symbols on consecutive reels.

For instance, if the Instant Prize symbol lands on reel 2, the wild symbols must appear anywhere on reels 3 and 4. The awarded prizes are: x1, x2, x5, x10, x25, x50, x100, x250, x500, x1,000. The multiplier attached to a wild is multiplied by the Instant Prize wins.

Free Spins Feature

The Free Spins feature is played on up to 4 reel matrices, depending on the number of scatters that activate the round. Here is a breakdown:

• 3 scatter symbols: 1 reel matrix
• 4 scatter symbols: 2 reel matrices
• 5 scatter symbols: 3 reel matrices
• 6 scatter symbols: 4 reel matrices

The Card Pick and Feature Pick Upgrades features come on before the start of the bonus round. The Card Pick decides the number of free spins that will be awarded, while the Feature Pick awards Stacked Wilds or remove the lowest symbols.

During free spins, a special Instant Prize symbol can appear on reels 1 and 5. If you are lucky enough to collect 5 special Instant Symbols, you will unlock the next reel matrix and retrigger the Card Pick and Feature Pick. This continues until you unlock the 4 matrices.

Card Pick Feature

The number of awarded Card Picks depends on the number of scatter symbols that trigger the feature. Here is a breakdown:

• 3 scatter symbols award 2 Card Picks: 1 free spin card and 1 Pick Upgrade.
• 4 scatter symbols award 3 Card Picks: 1 free spins card and 2 Picks Upgrade.
• 5 scatter symbols award 4 Card Picks: 1 free spin card and 3 Picks Upgrade.
• 6 scatter symbols award 5 Card Picks: 1 free spin card and 4 Picks Upgrade.

The number on the selected card equals the amount of free spins you will receive: 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10.

Feature Pick Upgrades

Subsequent Card Picks after the free spins card will award one of the 2 Feature Pick Upgrades: Stacked Wilds or remove lowest symbols.

Here is how this feature works:

• Stacked Wild Symbol: It appears on reels 2, 3, or 4 and covers the entire reel. Duplicate stacked wilds will have an impact on unlocked Reel Matrices by increasing the multiplier value on the wild.
• Remove Lowest Symbols: The symbol displayed on the card is removed from the reels, and the maximum number of low-paying symbols that can be removed is 4.

Interestingly, when you retrigger the free spins, the Card Pick and Feature Pick will be offered again.

Bonus Buy (Not Available in UK Online Casinos)

Like most top slot sites, Cats of Olympuss offers a bonus buy feature, allowing you to move directly into the bonus round. Unfortunately, it is not available in the UK.
You can choose from the 3 options below:

• 3 guaranteed scatter symbols cost 61.6x the bet and 94.21% RTP
• 4 guaranteed scatter symbols cost 112.5x the bet and 94.24% RTP
• Random scatter symbols cost 111.5x the bet and 94.23% RTP

Push Bet

The Push Bet mode offers better chances of triggering free spins by raising the base bet by 20%.

Cats of Olympuss Slot

Push Gaming has done great work in presenting Ancient Greek mythology through the lens of cute feline creatures. The game boasts a solid lineup of bonus features, offering the potential for big wins.

Pros

• Stacked wilds and free spins
• Up to x1,000 instant prize
• 13,195x max win
• Great visuals

Cons

• Low symbol values

The Cats of Olympuss slot game looked basic at first glance – there was little to anticipate in the base game in terms of advanced mechanics. Despite its simplicity, the Wilds and Instant Prizes provided the potential for significant wins in the base game.

The provider adds an interesting twist to the conventional free spins, making it more exciting and rewarding. Like Pragmatic Play’s The Dog House Multihold, you can unlock up to 4 reel matrices in the bonus round. However, on occasions where I triggered the bonus round, I couldn’t make it beyond the second reel.

Another point that I noted during this review is that the bonus features are interconnected, as it is common for many free online slots to offer redundant features. The Stacked Wilds boost Instant Prizes and transform to a sticky wild during free spins. They can also be found in the Feature Pick Upgrade.

Overall, Cats of Olympuss is an exciting and rewarding slot and a testament to Push Gaming’s ability to make immersive visuals from a basic theme.
