How To Play Age of the Gods Mobile Slot
Part of a larger pool of Playtech progressive jackpot games, the Age of the Gods slot gives you the power of the main pantheon of Greek gods in the palm of your hand.
Though it is part of a larger series, this is the first to stand alone by its name. It’s not the ‘Age of the Gods: Furious Four slot‘; it’s just ‘Age of the Gods’.
Because the powerhouses hiding in these five reels stand by themselves, not needing any extra descriptions to draw you in.
Athena, Zeus, Poseidon, & Hercules fight the good fight against Hades and Persephone – the question is, will this video slot bring you to hell or see you sipping sweet ambrosia on Mount Olympus?
20 paylines and one big progressive jackpots slot
The first draw is the progressive jackpot, which goes into the thousands and is shared amongst all the other ‘Age of the Gods slots, much like how the superhero jackpots in the Playtech Marvel slots used to.
On any spin, you can trigger the jackpot, though if you bet higher, you have a higher chance of hitting the progressive.
But this isn’t the main reason to play this mobile Age of The Gods slot game. It’s like a bonus you don’t think about too often as you spin five beautiful reels full of gorgeous Ancient Greek symbols.
Add that every once in a while, all 5 gods will line up on a payline and pay out 10x your bet, and it’s easy to keep spinning till the bonus games.
The frequent Age of the Gods slot free spins
The powerhouse hiding in this brilliant mobile casino game is the free spins, which are a pure thrill.
At first, we were still determining if there would be anything special. After all, you get 9 free spins, and you need to match 3 symbols to find out which of the four free spin bonuses you get – too random to be any good, surely?
Boy, were we wrong. All four gods can bring you luck, though we’re a fan of Hercules with a stacked wild on reel three, and all Hercules symbols are now wild.
Athena is also quite good fun, with multipliers increasing and decreasing on every spin.
But whichever god you get, the good news is that you can easily re-trigger another 9 free spins once the first lot is done. Only by uncovering Hades does your fun end.
We’ve rarely walked away with less than 50x our bet, many times a whole load more.
These gods are everything you’d hope
When Playtech announced they would create this series of ‘Age of the Gods slot machines’, we were dubious.
How many times can you use a Greek theme to create multiple jackpot mobile casino games?
Thankfully they seem to have created unique games, with special bonuses which light up the screen each time they show up, and nowhere is this more evident than in this Age of the Gods mobile slot.

Age of the Gods Bonus Features
Wild: The 'wild' symbol is wild and replaces all other symbols except scatter.
Special Pantheon of Power: Land all five god symbols in any order on an active payline to win 200x your line bet or 10x your overall bet.
Age of the Gods Free Spin Bonus: Get three Age of the Gods slot logos anywhere on the screen, and you trigger the free spins.
First, you get to pick from a table of 20 coins, underneath which hides 5 gods. You want to avoid Hades, which means the free spin bonus ends, but 3 of the following gods trigger:
- Athena: 9 free spins where this goddess gives you a multiplier from 2x to 5x on every win.
- Zeus: 9 free spins, which start with a 1x multiplier, and every 3 spins, Zeus increases the multiplier by one. You also get a wild in the centre of reel 3.
- Poseidon: 9 free spins where Poseidon may turn anything from 1 to 5 symbols on the screen wild.
- Hercules: 9 free spins where you get a stack of wilds on reel 3, and every Hercules symbol is now also wild.
The good news is that once you've played your 9 free spins, you get to pick from 20 coins again, to have another chance at more free spins.
We usually get to play 2 of the 4 free spins, sometimes 3, before we encounter Hades.
Age of the Gods Jackpot: On any spin, you might suddenly trigger the progressive jackpot slot. You win the jackpot via a mini-game where, much like the free spins, you get to pick from 20 coins till you reveal 3 of the same coins.
These coins can trigger any of four jackpots:
- Power: A few tens in cash.
- Extra Power: A few hundred in cash.
- Super Power: A few thousand in cash.
- Ultimate Power: A few tens of thousands in cash.
Sometimes you need to let them grow, but that's how high you expect them to build.
