Gates of Olympus 1000: full review for Filipino players
Gates of Olympus 1000 is Pragmatic Play's 2024 follow-up to the 2021 hit, and it is one of the three titles in the series that players in the Philippines search for most, alongside the original demo and Super Scatter. The concept did not need fixing, so Pragmatic Play kept it: Zeus, a 6×5 grid, Scatter Pays and tumbles. The upgrade is in the orbs, which now reach x1000, and in the maximum win, which rises to 15,000x the bet.
Below you will find the full specs, a clear breakdown of what changed, and some thoughts on who this version suits best. The free demo in pesos is loaded right on this page.

Original versus 1000: the real differences
Visually, the two are almost twins. The temple, the gems and the crown are unchanged; you get a new 1000 logo and smoother animations. The meaningful changes are all in the maths.
- Orbs up to x1000. Twice the top value of the original's x500. Big orbs are rare, but they are what makes wins of thousands of bets possible.
- Max win of 15,000x. Three times the original cap. The round stops automatically if it is reached.
- Same RTP. 96.50% normally, 96.49% when you buy the bonus.
- Same core features. Paytable, free spins, total multiplier and retrigger rules have not changed.
In practice, the 1000 edition is more extreme in both directions. A bonus without big orbs can feel small, but a bonus with one or two can outperform anything the original can offer.
How the bigger orbs play out
Orbs still land randomly on any spin or tumble, now with values from x2 to x1000. They are summed at the end of a winning sequence and multiply the total win; if the sequence has no win, they disappear. In free spins, each orb that lands on a winning spin joins the total multiplier until the round ends.
Because one orb can be worth several hundred, the total multiplier in the bonus often jumps rather than climbs. That makes the 1000 edition feel more sudden than the original: long quiet stretches, then a single moment that changes the whole round.
Free spins and buying the bonus
Scatter payouts are the same as before: 3x for four, 5x for five, 100x for six, plus 15 free spins. Three scatters during the bonus add 5 spins. The bonus can be bought for 100x the bet, and the Ante Bet costs 25% extra per spin while adding more scatters to the reels.
At ₱50 per spin a bonus buy costs ₱5,000. Try a run of buys in the free demo to see how widely results vary before deciding whether buying suits your budget.
