Greek Mythology Feel and Theme

This is clearly a slot based on Greek Mythology and their pantheon of gods. The reels are set in pink swirly clouds, which are presumably at the top of Mount Olympus which is where the Gods were said to have lived. The overall feel of this slot is kind of pink and fluffy.

This is quite a simple slot, and is a great step for beginners wanting to try a real money slot. Please note that this slot is not available to be played for free money.

Greek Mythology Symbols and Specials

Of course all the symbols in Battle For Olympus are taken right from Greek mythology too, and you can find a large number of Gods and Goddesses happily populating your reels as well as various godly regalia. The top god is of course Zeus, who was the king of the Greek Gods. His brother Hades is also there, as well as Athena, Cerberus the three headed dog, a cart, a trident and a helmet. The base symbols are taken from the deck of cards, and have not had much done to them except to add rounded edges, which adds to the pink fluffy feel.

There are also several special symbols. Cerberus the three headed dog who guarded the river Styx in the underworld is our wild symbol. He does not create any payouts on his own, but does substitute for any other symbol on the reels except the bonus, the scatter and the mixed gods.  Athena is our scatter. When she appears three, four or five times anywhere on the reels she creates a multiplier which is based on how many of her you find.
