Everything in this game, from the background to the symbols, will transport you to another time and place and will make you feel as if you’ve just embarked on the biggest adventure of your life. It's set in the Colosseum, an d you’ll see pillars to the back of the game while a ball of flames sits to the top right, waiting to set your reels alight with multiple free spins.
Heroic Symbols
Players can tailor their bet amounts in this game, even though all 50 paylines are fixed, with the option to change the bet per two lines. Minimum bets can be placed at 0.40 credits, while maximums are offered at 200 credits per spin. While the amounts available for each symbol vary dramatically, even the lower-paying icons will help you along the way in your battle for victory.
The silver and gold coins, the Roman goblet and the piece of a pillar will reward you with up to 500 credits for five consecutive symbols. You’ll also need to kit yourself out with all of the necessary armour and weapons, including swords, javelins and shields, with these paying up to 750 credits for five of a kind.
Killing other gladiators rewards you with 750 credits for five matching symbols, while your fair lady will grant you 1,000 credits when you rescue her and become a champion of the battle. When a shield appears on your reels, this will transform to reveal a random symbol and will reward you if any winning combinations are created.
Super Re-Spins
If you get these mystery symbols filling the entire first reel, you’ll be rewarded with two super re-spins to add further mystery symbols to your reels. The wild symbol is the menacing gladiator in a mask, and he’ll substitute for all other symbols except the feature one and will only appear on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5.
When you get him in a winning combination, you’ll watch him put on his mask in preparation for battle as he wreaks havoc wherever he goes. Should the fireball fall down to earth, all of the shields will remain in position whilst the reels spin, offering you the chance to take home even higher jackpots.
Get three or more feature symbols and you’ll trigger the free spins bonus, where 10 free spins are awarded and additional stacked wild symbols are added on to each of the reels.
An Epic Battle
Whatever your gaming level, you can enjoy the heroic battle on offer in Plataea. Clashing swords with some of the fiercest gladiators, you’ll build up a rewarding jackpot. With free spins and exciting wilds available, there’s nothing stopping you from achieving a legendary victory in the Coliseum.
