Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus Slot Review

Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus Slot Review

Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus comes from Ash Gaming on the Playtech jackpot network, and it sticks with the familiar ancient Greece setting. The 5x4 layout with 30 paylines looks a bit dated, with a static heavenly backdrop and the three wheels sitting above the grid, but the maths feel solid enough. RTP is quoted at 96.08 percent in one version, while another lists 95.14 percent without jackpots, with average volatility and about x1491 overall win potential.

Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus Symbols and Paytable

In Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus the wild symbol does the heavy lifting, both as a substitute and as the joint top payer. Landing five wilds on a payline returns 15x your stake, the same as the Fortuna style premium. Other character symbols slide down the ladder, with the next ones paying 10x, then 7.5x and 5x for five of a kind, which keeps the premium set fairly compact and easy to follow.

Below that you get the card style icons, where five of a kind wins drop into the 4x down to 2.5x range, with the lower hits for three and four matching symbols sitting between 0.2x and 1.7x. Single spin potential outside the features caps at about 450x your stake, so the base game on its own is not where the big money hides. From my sessions most of the interesting returns came once the special features kicked in.

Age of the Gods: Wheels of Olympus Features

The whole engine in Age of the Gods: Wheels of Olympus revolves around the Olympian wheels sitting above the reels. On any spin, random symbols can be picked as golden symbols. Hitting three to five golden symbols on the same row triggers one of the Wheels of Olympus. You can also press the Feature Bet button, which doubles your stake on each spin but also doubles the chance that those wheels will come into play.

There are three wheel tiers based on how many golden symbols you land. With three golden symbols, the smallest wheel can give you 20x or 40x cash awards, 5 to 8 free spins, a respin with 4 or 5 wilds landing, or an upgrade to the next wheel. Four golden symbols move you to the mid wheel, where prizes rise to 40x or 80x, free spins go to 8 to 12, and respins arrive with 5 or 6 wilds and another possible upgrade.

Five golden symbols are the sweet spot, firing the top wheel that can pay 100x or a hefty 500x in straight cash, or hand out between 12 and 50 free spins, or a respin with 8 to 12 wilds raining in. The free spins bonus round mirrors the base game but the wheel triggers appear far more often, and in theory you can reach up to 500 free spins in total. On top of that sits the Age of the Gods jackpot feature, which can land at random and guarantees one of four progressives, from Power at £50 and Extra Power at £500, up through Super Power at £5,000 to the Ultimate Power jackpot that seeds at £100,000 and averages around £475,364 when it finally drops.

The 200 Spins Age of the Gods: Wheels of Olympus Experience

When I ran my own 200 spins test on Age of the Gods: Wheels of Olympus, the pattern matched what the maths suggest. The first Olympus wheel showed up reasonably early and only gave a modest cash prize, then the second trigger landed not long after and handed me 8 free spins. From there the bonus round played out much like the base game, just with more regular wheel hits, frequent smaller cash awards and the odd teasing upgrade, but without anything outrageous dropping.

Review Summary for Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus

Visually Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus feels a bit behind newer releases, and the base game by itself can grind, especially when you play without the Feature Bet active. The Olympus wheels do trigger quite regularly at the lower tier though, and that breaks up the dead spins with chunks of cash, wild respins or small batches of free spins. The straight single spin cap of around 450x keeps expectations in check if you are chasing massive base game hits.

For me the main attraction lies in the mix of progressive jackpots and steady wheel action. RTP sitting around the mid ninety range, average volatility and frequent low to mid tier prizes make it more of a slow burner where you wait for either a long free spins run with several upgrades or the random jackpot feature to bail you out. I would pick Age of the Gods Wheels of Olympus when I fancy relaxed jackpot hunting rather than hardcore high variance grinding.
