Prince Of Olympus Playtech Online Slot

Added: September 21, 2016

Hercules has become synonymous with strength. In Greek mythology he was the son of Zeus and the mortal Alcmene. It is for this reason that Playtech has described Hercules as Prince of Olympus in its Age of the Gods online slots series.

Hercules is famous for his twelve labours and it is but natural some of these to appear as symbols on the reels. The top line payout of 4000 coins is awarded by the three-headed dog Cerberus. Capturing the monstrous dog was the final labour of Hercules. The eleventh labour was to procure the three golden apples of Hera that were hidden in Hesperides. The set of golden apples is another symbol. You also have Hercules’ famed club and belt.

Hercules wearing the carcass of the Nemean lion is the wild symbol and triggers the Herculean Strength feature. When Hercules appears on the centre of reel 3, it expands to cover the reel and awards two re-spins with locked expanding wilds. If the symbol appears anywhere on reels 2, 3 and 4 then all three reels become expanding wilds and you get 1 re-spin with the reels locked.

Slaying the nine-headed hydra was another of the labours of Hercules. When the hydra symbol lands on reels 1 and 5 at the same time, the Hydra Bonus feature on the second screen is triggered. You fire arrows at the hydra’s heads for cash prizes. If you can slash the hydra you win a payout multiplier. There is a randomly triggered Hercules Rage feature that destroys all the nine heads of the hydra awarding the bonuses prizes for all of them.

The Hercules logo is the scatter symbol. It awards scatter payouts multiplied by the total bet. Three or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels award 10 free spins in which all payouts are multiplied three times. The free spins can be retriggered. The Hercules Strength feature can be triggered in the free spins but not the Hydra Bonus game.

Playtech’s Age of the Gods series has been developed as a replacement for the Marvel branded superhero slots. Discerning players will have noticed that Prince of Olympus uses the same slots engine as The Hulk, who was also known for his brute strength. Prince of Olympus and the other slot games of the Age of the Gods series are networked to the progressive jackpot that functions in exactly the same way as the Marvel Mystery Jackpot. Prince of Olympus is live at all Playtech online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino.
