Reign of Zeus Game Characteristics

Set in a cloudy sky, the Reign of Zeus’ unpartitioned irregular grid—freestanding symbols forming 3(4X4X4) reels—is embedded on a light purple classical Greek temple.

There are $0.20 (minimum bet), $0.40, $1.00, $2.00, $5.00, $10.00, and $20.00 (maximum bet) in Reign of Zeus whose eleven symbols include two special and nine ordinary symbols. Special symbols: a substituting red-plumed “wild” gladiator’s helmet; and a free games-prompting lightning-holding Zeus’ “scatter” fist.

Ordinary symbols: elderly wild-haired Mount Olympus god Zeus; head-winged blonde sleep god Hypnos; wheat stalk-wearing agriculture goddess Ceres; and Doric columns-embedded red heart, purple spade, blue club, golden diamond, green diamond, and pink club suits.

The “wild” helmets are sticky during a post-win’s free re-spins. During the: regular game, each subsequent free re-spin increases from X1, X2, X3, X4, to X5; free games, each successive free re-spin increases from X2, X4, X6, X8, to X10 progressively.
