Gates of Olympus Xmas 1000

The Gates of Olympus Xmas 1000 online pokie builds its gameplay around a set of familiar mechanics from the original release, with festive visuals layered over the core features. Several elements can shape the grid as symbols tumble and multipliers rise, and below are three of the central features that define much of the action.

The free spins feature begins when four or more Scatters land anywhere on the grid, awarding an immediate prize and triggering a round of 15 spins. During this feature, each multiplier symbol that contributes to a win is added to a global multiplier that carries over throughout the entire round. This value never resets and grows each time another multiplier appears and takes part in a winning cascade.



An additional five spins are awarded whenever three or more Scatters land during the feature, extending the round and allowing the global multiplier to build even further.

These special symbols can drop onto the grid at any moment, carrying values from 2x all the way up to 1,000x. When a winning tumble includes one, its value is added to the multiplier applied to that sequence. They appear in both the base game and the bonus round, giving any cascade the chance to climb when a multiplier lands in view.

A winning combination triggers the tumble mechanic, clearing the symbols involved and opening space for the next drop. New and existing symbols fall into the gaps, and the sequence continues for as long as fresh wins form on the grid.

The Gates of Olympus Xmas 1000 online slot uses a Scatter Pays system on a 6x5 grid. A win forms when eight or more matching symbols land anywhere on the screen. Returns scale across three tiers: 8-9, 10-11, and 12-30 matching symbols. The tumble mechanic clears winning symbols and continues the sequence until no additional wins form.

Released in December 2024, Gates of Olympus Xmas 1000 is a festive reimagining of Pragmatic Play’s well-known mythological slot, released as a seasonal edition built around a snowy Olympus. The reels sit inside a gold-framed 6x5 layout, with the backdrop showing snow-covered mountains and decorated pillars against a clear winter sky.
