War of Gods Slot Review

War of Gods Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The base game action in the War of Gods slot is played on a 5 reel, 4 row, 30 payline machine. This can change in the bonus features which we’ll look at in detail below. To create a winner, land 3 or more matching symbols on a payline from left to right, starting from reel 1.

Stake levels here range from 10p to £20 per spin. Use the + and – buttons to adjust. The Auto option allows you to run 20, 50 or 100 autospins. You can set win, loss and stop on feature limits here too.

The War of Gods RTP of 95.66% is a little on the low side. Medium to high variance, the most you can win from a single spin here is 2,518 x your total stake.

Theme – Audio & Design Features – go into battle with Zeus and Hades

With an ancient Greek mythology theme, there’s a dark, rather oppressive feel to the design in the War of Gods slot. That’s no surprise given that its starring characters are a pair of feuding ancient deities. With the stirring soundtrack blasting away in the background, there’s a rather menacing atmosphere here.

With ominous clouds, ruined marble columns and roaring fire in the background, the reels are made up of lower value playing card suit symbols as well as paper, a hunting horn, a shield and spear and a Spartan warrior’s helmet. The most rewarding symbols are the suitably demonic looking Hades and Zeus, who sports a magnificently bushy white beard.

You can join the feuding ancients on all devices including tablets and smartphones as well as desktop and laptop devices. The apocalyptic design works perfectly well on the smaller screen devices. So too do the trio of streak respin bonus features. The War of Gods mobile slot works well.

War of Gods Bonus Features

In War of Gods, streak respins are central all 3 bonus features. They each come with a special modifier which can boost your chances of landing a bigger score if they strike. We’ll start by looking at the Wrath of Zeus feature.

Wrath of Zeus feature

The Wrath of Zeus feature is triggered by landing 1×2 Zeus symbols on reels 1 and 5 on the same spin. The Zeus symbols expand to fill the whole of reels 1 and 5.  You’ll then receive a series of respins where the reels are made up of blanks, Zeus and shield symbols.

If you land a shield, the value of the Zeus symbols increases. You can see this via a colour change to all the symbols. You can get up to 3 symbol upgrades here.  The respins continue until there’s one where no new Zeus symbol lands. A final payout calculation is made with all the Zeus symbols in position.

The upgrades can have a serious impact. Land 5 Zeus symbols on a payline at the standard paytable rates and you’ll win 14 x stake. After 3 upgrades, that same combination awards 24 x stake.

Hades Hellfire feature

The Hades Hellfire feature is similar to the Wrath of Zeus. It’s triggered by landing 1×2 Hades symbols on reels 1 and 5. They expand and the respins follow.

Land a shield during this round and you’ll expand the reels rather than a symbol upgrade. Each expansion increases the number of active paylines. At their maximum, the game grid expands to 7 reels and 7 rows which combine to offer 60 paylines. The respins continue until no new shield of Hades symbol lands. A payout calculation is then made.

Warring Gods feature

To trigger the Warring Gods feature, you’ll need to land 1 Zeus and 1 Hades symbol on reels 1 and 5 on the same spin. As you might guess, this bonus takes the modifier from both Zeus and Hades and combines them.

That means you can get up to 3 symbol upgrades plus up to 4 reel expansions. It’s possible here to land upgraded symbol payouts in 7-of-a-kind combinations on 60 paylines. Manage that and you’ll pocket an award of 100 x stake per payline.

War of Gods Review Summary – all about streak respins

This ancient epic is nicely done. We’ve seen plenty of slots with a similar theme but not many of them conjure up the atmosphere that the War of Gods slot does.

I like the streak respin as a bonus feature and you’ll find 3 classic examples of the genre here. They can all deliver some decent action too. The best extra is the Warring Gods feature where the upgrades and expansions can combine to excellent effect. The RTP isn’t the best you’ll see but that aside, I enjoyed War of Gods.

If you want more ancient Greek gods, the Age of the Gods slot by Playtech has it all: 4 free spins features, excellent graphics and 4 progressive jackpots. Another good option is Divine Fortune Megaways from NetEnt.
