The ways system

The slot pays through 43,923 ways across 5 reels. The in-game paytable shows the symbols and their values. A ways game pays for matching symbols on neighboring reels instead of along set lines, so one spin can pay in several combinations at once.

The setting is ancient Greece, with its myths and gods.

A lower RTP

An RTP of 94.21% gives a house edge of 5.79%. Over a huge number of spins you would expect to lose more per stake than on a 96% game. That is an average and not a guide to one session.

Providers often supply several RTP versions to operators. The figure above is the listed one, and your casino may use another, so read the game rules. High volatility adds to the unevenness. The guides on RTP and volatility show why this matters.

Free spins and the buy option

Free spins and bonus buy are listed. There is no wild feature. The free-spin rules are not published.

The buy option charges a premium for entering a feature. With a lower RTP and high swings, paying for bonuses can accelerate losses.

Readers who want a higher RTP or a calmer profile should compare other titles. If you play, keep to a fixed budget, and only as an adult. more Thunderkick slots.
