My review of Rise of Olympus 100
My experience
I came to Rise of Olympus 100 having streamed a lot of the 2018 original, and the difference is immediate. The base layout is familiar — a 5x5 grid, cluster wins where three or more matching symbols connect horizontally or vertically, then cascades as winners vanish and new symbols drop — but the whole game feels meaner and more purposeful.
The heart of it is the multiplier. In the base game it starts at x1 and ticks up +1 with each cascade in a sequence, then resets when the cascades stop. That is normal cascade-slot stuff. What changes everything is the free spins: there, the multiplier does not reset between spins. It carries over and keeps building, so a good bonus is really a single long project of nursing that meter upward toward the x100 cap without too many dry spins killing your momentum.
Getting into the bonus is the puzzle, and it is a tough one. You trigger free spins by clearing the entire grid of symbols in a cascading sequence — emptying the board. That is harder than landing three scatters in most slots, and on plenty of my sessions it simply does not happen for a long, long time. When you do clear it, you choose your god: Hades for 4 spins, Poseidon for 5, or Zeus for 8. I lean toward Zeus for the volume, but with the multiplier persisting, even a short Hades run can snowball if the cascades cooperate.
The gods do real work in the base game too. The Hand of God can fire on a non-winning spin — Hades transmutes one symbol type into another, Poseidon scatters a wild or two, and Zeus blasts away two symbol sets to manufacture cascades out of nothing. And the Wrath of Olympus meter, fed by god symbols landing, can erupt with all three modifiers in a single round when you fill all three sections in one sequence. Those moments are the spikes that keep the base game from feeling like dead air.
My honest read after the hours: this is high variance done well, but it is high variance. The 15,000x headline needs a near-perfect free-spins run with the multiplier deep into the high double digits — I have never come close to it myself, and you should treat it as the ceiling, not the target. The grid-clear trigger means long stretches with no bonus at all, and that is the price of admission. I respect the design more than the original, but I size my bankroll for patience and I tell viewers to do the same.
Strengths
- Cascade multiplier never resets in free spins and climbs to x100 — genuine snowball potential
- Big 15,000x max win, a major step up from the 2018 original
- Solid 96.20% default RTP for a high-volatility cluster slot
- Three distinct gods (Hades, Poseidon, Zeus) give the features real variety
- Hand of God and Wrath of Olympus keep the base game from going flat
- Up to 100 free spins possible, and a x50 prize for clearing the grid in the bonus
- Clean HTML5 build that runs well on mobile
Weaknesses
- Free spins are triggered by fully clearing the grid — much harder than a standard scatter trigger
- High volatility with long bonus droughts; budget for patience
- Reaching the x100 cap (and the 15,000x ceiling) is rare and demands a long unbroken cascade run
- Several reduced-RTP builds exist (94.20% down to 84.20%) — you must check the info panel
- No bonus-buy option, so there is no shortcut into the feature
- The '100' branding misleads newcomers into expecting 100 free spins by default
Who is Rise of Olympus 100 for?
Rise of Olympus 100 is for players who enjoy cluster-pays cascades with a building-multiplier hook and do not mind grinding for a hard-to-reach bonus. If you liked the 2018 original but wanted more bite — a higher ceiling, a persistent free-spins multiplier, a meaner trigger — this is the upgrade. At a $0.20 minimum it is accessible on a modest bankroll, provided you treat the grid-clear trigger as a rare event and size your sessions for it. It will suit you if you like the idea of a free-spins round you have to actively build rather than just sit through. I would steer you away if you want frequent, friendly feature hits: the empty-the-board trigger makes this streakier than most cascade slots, and a Pragmatic title like Sweet Bonanza or Gates of Olympus will pay you small wins far more often. New players should internalise one thing before spinning: high volatility means the 96.20% RTP is realised over millions of spins, not your session, and most individual sessions on a game this swingy will lose. Play it for the ride and the rare big run, try the demo with virtual credits first, and set your limits before you deposit. 18+ only.
How Rise of Olympus 100 works
Rise of Olympus 100 runs on a 5x5 grid with cluster pays: you win when three or more matching symbols connect horizontally or vertically, those symbols are removed, and new ones cascade down to fill the gaps. Each cascade in a sequence raises a win multiplier by +1, the three gods supply their own modifiers, and the whole game funnels toward free spins that you unlock by completely emptying the grid. Stakes run from $0.20 to $100. Here is every mechanic in detail.
Cluster Pays on a 5x5 Grid
Instead of paylines, Rise of Olympus 100 pays for clusters: land three or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically and you win, regardless of where on the grid they sit. Winning symbols are then removed and the remaining ones drop down to fill the gaps, creating the cascades that drive everything else in the game. The more symbols in a cluster, the bigger the base pay.
The Cascade Multiplier (up to x100)
Every cascade within a single winning sequence increases the win multiplier by +1. In the base game it resets once the cascades stop, but the ceiling is x100 — and that is exactly what the '100' in the title refers to. It is a multiplier cap, not a free-spins count. Stringing together a long chain of cascades to push the multiplier up is the core skill-free thrill of the game.
Free Spins: Clear the Grid to Trigger
There are no scatter symbols here. You unlock free spins by clearing the entire grid of symbols in a cascading sequence — emptying the board. This is a deliberately tough trigger, which is a big reason the game runs hot and cold. When it happens you choose your god to set the spin count: Hades for 4, Poseidon for 5, or Zeus for 8 free spins.
Persistent Multiplier in Free Spins
This is the headline. During free spins the win multiplier does NOT reset between spins. It carries over from one free spin to the next and keeps climbing toward the x100 cap, so a strong bonus is really one continuous project of building the meter. Clearing the grid again during free spins also awards a x50 multiplier prize, and you can earn up to 100 free spins in total through extensions.
Hand of God Modifiers
On a non-winning base-game spin, the active god can step in. Hades converts every instance of one symbol type into another, Poseidon adds one or two wilds to random positions, and Zeus removes two symbol sets to force fresh cascades. These modifiers turn dead spins into potential wins and are a key part of how the base game stays alive between bonuses.
Wrath of Olympus Meter
God symbols landing in wins fill a three-section meter — a win with god symbols can fill one, two or three sections at once. Fill all three sections within the same cascading sequence and the Wrath of Olympus erupts: all three gods take turns applying their modifiers in a single round, which can completely reshape the grid and chain into a big cascade run.
Paytable and the 15,000x Ceiling
The maximum win is 15,000x your stake, a large step up from the 2018 original. There is no single combination that pays it; it is built from clusters multiplied by a deep cascade multiplier during free spins. Reaching anywhere near it requires the persistent multiplier to climb into the high double digits across a long, lucky bonus — it is the theoretical ceiling, and an extremely rare one.
Rise of Olympus 100 FAQ
Where to play Rise of Olympus 100
Rise of Olympus 100 is the sequel the 2018 game deserved: a sharper, higher-ceiling take on Play'n GO's Greek-gods cluster slot that gets nearly everything right on paper. The persistent free-spins multiplier climbing to x100, the 15,000x maximum, the Hand of God and Wrath of Olympus modifiers, and a respectable 96.20% default RTP add up to a genuinely well-built high-volatility game. The catch is the trigger: clearing the entire grid to reach the bonus is brutally demanding, and that makes this one of the streakier cascade slots around — you will sit through long dry spells, and the 15,000x ceiling needs a near-perfect run to approach. I respect it more than the original and rate it 8.3/10: an excellent game for patient, variance-tolerant players, and a frustrating one for anyone who needs regular feature hits. Try the free demo first, insist on the 96.20% version at your casino, set a budget you can afford to lose, and treat the big multiplier runs as the rare gift they are. 18+ — play responsibly.
