Game of gladiators

Background

The Game of Gladiators slot game is one of the best creations from the Play N Go team. It is an exciting video slot with five reels and 20 pay-lines so it is a medium variance game. It has a couple of features which are appealing and comes with an RTP of 96.42%, which is more than attractive in the modern climate.

Theme

As you could probably guess by the name of the game, it comes with a Roman gladiator background theme. The Ancient Roman stone walls provide the backdrop to this game which has a demanding feel to it in terms of its game-play. The key is to go into the Battle Arena and come out with significant wins.

The regular A, K, Q and J symbols are in play in this game but there are also some special gladiator ones which serve a purpose. They are Rectiarus, Provocator, Scissor and Murmillio, and all come with various wild or multiplier features.

Betting and Winning

When you are pondering your wager for this game it is important to know that the coin size range from 0.20 to 100.00, which means that the minimum bet is 20p and the maximum is £100 per spin, making it a medium variance option. The jackpot is 500 times your initial bet which is fairly low by modern standards it must be said.

Wins come along when 3, 4, or 5 of the same symbol are matched with the bigger payouts, and bonuses coming via those Gladiator icons mentioned above. There is also a Tiger symbol and this can see you winning 25 times your stake if you can collect five of them.

Primus Mystery Feature

There are two features in the game and the first of them is the Primus Mystery one. This is made up of five different features which can be randomly launched. They are the Spear Attack, Net Attack, Sword Attack, Fame and Engaged.

The Spear Attack throws anything between three and six spears at the reels, turning each spot it lands into a Wild icon. Sword Attack repeats the first reel from two to four times, while the Net Attack offers a re-spin. Enraged randomly adds two Tiger Wild symbols onto the reels.

Enter the Arena Feature

This, in essence, is what the game is about. The Arena Gate is a scatter icon that can descend on reels 1, 3, and 5 and if you get three of them the Battle Free Spins feature is activated. Any Wilds that come in this feature become Mega Wilds, allowing you to spin as many times as you like until the battle is won or lost. Winning it could see you win 5,000 times your bet.

Before you go into battle you choose your Gladiator between Spartacus and Amazonia. Spartacus awards a feature re-trigger while you get a multiplier with Amazonia.

Summary

This game can be quite complicated to begin with but the stunning graphics and enjoyable game-play once you have mastered what is going on makes this an entertaining option. It has a medium risk associated with it but the features are generous and the many payout potentials on offer are appealing. This is a game well worth trying out.
