Zeus King of Gods Introduction
Gameplay-Interactive have chosen an epic theme and given it an epic treatment in Zeus: King of the Gods. If you enjoy free online pokies with a mythological theme then this will be a must play game. It looks incredible and, with one minor quibble, its bonus features and rewarding base game play are incredible.
Theme
Zeus was the ancient Greek god of the sky and thunder, like his Norse equivalent Thor. But he was also the king of the Gods on Mount Olympus and Gameplay-interactive take us to the heart of his temple, where he stands watch over the reels of fortune. There are other Zeus themed games out there, but this is by far the most cinematic.
Zeus: King of the Gods will get your adrenaline pumping as you search for riches on the reels. Decked out in gleaming gold, with a heart pumping soundtrack, this 3D game is just stunning, from the graphics to the gameplay.
Format
This is a 5 reel, 20 payline pokie which is a fairly standard format. Line bets start at 0.5 credits and climb to 50 credits, and while it’s not the highest staking Gameplay-interactive pokie around, you’ll need deep pockets to go all in with a max bet of 1,000 credits over 20 paylines.
Zeus: King of Gods paytable
This pokie pays out in multipliers, so here are you full house paytable winnings based on staking 1 credit:
- Lyre: 100x
- Golden crown: 150x
- Golden goblet: 200x
- Golden staff: 250x
- Shield: 300x
- Laurel wreath: 400x
- Eagle: 500x
- Zeus: 1,000x
The rewards for base game play can be pretty enriching, and you’ll have the opportunity to face off with Zeus himself in a double or quits game. Bet on heads or tails - if you win you double your bet, but if you lose Zeus claims it all.
Zeus: King of Gods Bonus Features
The mighty Pegasus, the fabled winged horse is your wild symbol and it acts in the classic pokie way to develop a greater number of winning combinations and build a nice bank balance. If Pegasus flies across all 5 reels you’ll bag a staggering 10,000 credits. There’s some serious cash to be made here if the reels are kind!
There are more credits to be won with the Lightning Bolt scatter. Land 3 for a 5x multiplier, 4 for a 10x multiplier and all 5 to increase your total win by a 50x multiplier. The Temple of Zeus bonus symbol lands anywhere on reels 1 or 5, and you’ll enter the bonus round where you’ll be confronted by 3 magnificent statues of Zeus himself. You’ll then choose 1 out of 6 symbols for free spins and multipliers.
You can theoretically earn 20 free spins and a 10x multiplier, but this mini game isn’t that rewarding, which is the one blot on an otherwise awesome pokie.
Lightning Bolt or Damp Squib?
Setting the bonus game aside, this is a really stunning game that offers enough rewards in base game play alone to make it worth your while. Is Zeus still king of the Gods? On this showing, yes he is!
