Gates of Olympus symbols and paytable guide

Start with the paytable for the exact version

The original Gates of Olympus uses Greek-mythology artwork and gem-like multiplier symbols. A current paytable should identify ordinary symbols, Zeus Scatter symbols and multipliers, along with qualifying counts and awards. Do not rely on a static symbol chart from a review site when a live game’s Help panel is available; icons, counts, translations and configurations may differ.

For paytable version, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Confirm the game name and provider first, then scroll through every paytable page. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Matching symbol counts

The provider describes 8–30 matching symbols anywhere on the tumbling reels for the original title. “Anywhere” describes the matching field, while a specific award still depends on the active paytable and symbol count. Avoid treating the phrase as meaning every set of eight icons has the same value. A low-value symbol group and a premium group can pay differently.

For qualifying thresholds, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Note the minimum count per symbol and how the displayed prize is expressed. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Read the icon hierarchy carefully

Game artwork often uses visually distinct objects to help recognition, but appearance alone does not tell the prize value. A crown, chalice, ring or gem can be decorative or a paid symbol depending on the exact game. The paytable labels settle that question. The original should not be confused with Gates of Olympus 1000, which introduces its own art and rules.

For symbol identity, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Match labels and values in the in-game paytable, not a fan-made infographic. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

• Confirm the exact game edition before relying on a review.
• Read the in-game rules for the active configuration.
• Do not treat a theoretical value or feature ceiling as a likely result.

Zeus Scatter symbols

The Zeus Scatter is the documented entry symbol for the original bonus. Four or more trigger the provider-described 15 free spins. The Help panel can explain whether scatters can pay outside the trigger, how the feature retriggers and how the bonus result is reported. A scatter animation or “almost bonus” view does not change the rules or guarantee a future feature.

For Scatter function, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Check both the trigger threshold and any separate Scatter prize or retrigger rule. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Multiplier gems

The provider says multiplier symbols can reach 500× in the original game and may appear in the base game and bonus. The multiplier’s value is a component of settlement, not a standalone cash award. Whether it contributes to a win depends on the rules, timing and accompanying winning outcome. The free-spin rules can use a running total, so read that section separately.

For multiplier values, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Find an example in the paytable that shows when the multiplier is applied. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Translate symbols into a stake-based example

To understand a displayed award, first identify the stake basis and the value shown for the symbol count. Only then can an arithmetic example be calculated. A theoretical example is not a likely payout, an expected return or a guarantee. If the game uses a separate bet setting, confirm whether the paytable figure is a multiple of stake or a cash amount.

For payout arithmetic, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Keep sample arithmetic clearly separated from real outcomes and operator limits. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Keep a version-aware symbol record

When comparing operator listings, note the exact name, provider, grid, Scatter condition, multiplier limit and date checked. This small record prevents accidentally comparing the original with 1000, POP, Super Scatter or 2500. If a displayed rule conflicts with an older screenshot, the current active-game information should guide your understanding.

For comparison notes, distinguish the provider’s summary from the rules in a particular operator build. The short product description may omit configuration details, symbol thresholds, settlement timing or account conditions. Save only non-sensitive screenshots of public rules and never expose personal account details. If the active Help panel leaves an important point unclear, pause and ask the operator before taking any paid action.

Sources, limits and responsible use

Pragmatic Play’s current product page is the primary source for the original Gates of Olympus mechanics summarized here. Its release announcement dated 24 February 2021 provides launch context. Neither source establishes every operator’s live game catalogue, account access or selected configuration.

A careful review separates game rules, operator terms and player expectations. Public mechanics can explain how a landed grid is evaluated, but they cannot predict future symbols or certify a particular real-money session. Check the exact Help panel displayed in the build you are considering.

Ghana’s Gaming Commission publishes a licensed-operator register and public guidance. A trade-name entry and operation category do not prove that the original game is listed or accessible to a particular account. Verify the legal company, current category, dates and live catalogue separately.
