Masters Of Olympus Review

Snowborn Games has seen solid success with Masters of Valhalla, so it’s not surprising that they start the new year of 2023 with a follow-up release. Which pantheon of deities you prefer may bias you towards one or the other of these two releases, and Masters of Olympus follows closely in the footsteps of the predecessor. It’s not a reskin job, however, as you get a brand new base game feature, as well as some other changes.

The extra wilds respins round has been replaced by a walking expanded wild respins feature, and it can wreak havoc once in a while when it triggers. You get to meet plenty of Greek gods in the hold and win Bonus Round, and a few new special symbols have been added to the mix. You get 7 modifier symbols this time, and the tally resets to 3 or 4 spins depending on the tier you trigger. The 20,000x potential is unchanged, and it will be interesting to see how this follow-up release fares compared to the original.

Masters Of Olympus Slot Features

The premium character symbols pay between 2 and 3 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and Lightning Bolt Wilds step in for pay symbols to help complete wins. Wilds are collected when they land, and this can sometimes trigger the Zeus Respins feature.

When the Zeus Respin feature triggers, which happens at random times when at least one wild is present, all present wild symbols expand downwards to fill the reel.

The wild moves one position per respin, and all wilds that appear during the feature will also expand and become moving wilds. The feature only ends when there are no more expanded wilds in view.

You can land Coin symbols during the feature as well, and these are collected. You need to collect a total of 3 coin symbols to trigger the Olympus Bonus. However, bonus symbols appearing on reels 1 and 3 are collected by the Spartan Booster Meter. If this meter is full, you get the Spartan Bonus instead of the Olympus Bonus.

Both bonus round tiers can also trigger from 3 bonus symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5.

The only difference between the Olympus Bonus and the Spartan Bonus is the number of respins in your tally. You get 3 respins that reset for each non-blank symbol that appears in the Olympus version, and the tally resets to 4 respins in the Spartan version. Both features play out like a hold & win round, and it comes with the following symbols:

• Silver shield - comes with prizes between 1x and 9x your stake.
• Gold shield - comes with prizes between 10x and 50x your stake.
• Poseidon - unlocks 1 of the 2 blocked rows at the bottom, and awards a cash prize as well.
• Aphrodite - comes with a multiplier that boosts all present symbols, as well as all future symbols that land.
• Ares - accumulates the value of all present symbols on the current spin.
• Athena - accumulates the value of all present symbols persistently on all spins.
• Zeus - adds its own value to all present symbols persistently on all spins.
• Apollo - adds its own value to all present symbols on the current spin.
• Hades - revives all Ares and Apollo symbols that have previously landed.
• Hot Spots - highlighted positions indicate a higher chance of landing gold shields or special symbols.

Finally, non-UK players, and anyone eligible, can take advantage of the Bonus Buy feature. You can pay 50x your stake for the Olympus Bonus, 100x the stake for the Spartan Bonus, or 250x your stake for the Spartan Bonus with a guaranteed Athena symbol from the get-go.

You get to see all 3 tiers of the bonus round in other words, so simply hit the play button below to get started immediately.

Review Summary

We have to admit that we enjoyed the visuals in Masters of Valhalla more than what you get in Masters of Olympus. That being said, this is still a strong follow-up release that’s well worth checking out, and not least if you enjoyed the previous game. The wild respins feature comes with walking wilds this time, instead of up to 19 extra wilds, and both features have their merit.

Once again, we lean towards the original game though, but that can be chalked up as personal preference.

Both installments revolve around the Money Train-inspired hold and win respins round, but you get more special symbols in this follow-up. The guaranteed Athena bonus buy option is also new, although non-UK players can purchase 2 tiers of the bonus round also in the original game. The feature can be good fun when you get plenty of special symbols action, but it can also fizzle out with a whimper many times. Overall, Masters Of Olympus is well worth checking out, not least if you enjoy a streak respins round with plenty of extras.

Pros

• Random Zeus Respins w/ walking expanded wilds
• Olympus Bonus w/ 7 special symbols and hot spots
• Spartan Bonus w/ 4 respins tally instead of 3
• Win up to 20,000x your stake

Cons

• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
