Rise of Olympus slot review: Hand of God, Wrath of God and free spins
Play'n GO's 2018 Greek-myth grid slot with a round multiplier, god-powered features and a 100x award for clearing the grid.
The Rise of Olympus slot is a Play'n GO grid game released on 22 August 2018. It uses a 5x5 cascading grid, a round multiplier that builds during each spin, two god-driven features called Hand of God and Wrath of God, and free spins in which you choose a god; clearing the grid in free spins awards 100x the bet. The listed RTP is 96.50%.

The grid, cascades and round multiplier
Wins form from matching symbols on the grid, and each win clears those symbols so new ones can drop in. As the spin goes on, a round multiplier builds, so later cascades in a chain are worth more than the first. The multiplier belongs to the spin; it does not carry into the next one.
Hand of God and Wrath of God
The god on the grid can step in with the Hand of God feature during a spin. Separately, a charge meter fills as you win, and when it is full it triggers Wrath of God. Neither feature can be bought or forced; both arrive through normal play.
Free spins and the clear-the-grid award
In free spins you choose one of the gods, and the round plays with that god's influence. According to Play'n GO, clearing the grid during free spins awards 100x your bet. Cascading play makes long chains possible, but a round can also end without a large result.
Volatility and max win: why figures are missing
The spec card leaves volatility and maximum win blank because sources disagree: one database calls the game high volatility and another medium, and the published maximums do not match. Rather than pick one, check the game's own information screen, which states the RTP of the build you are playing. The slot volatility guide explains how to read these labels. In Great Britain online slots are capped at £5 per spin, or £2 for players aged 18 to 24.
Rise of Olympus 100, Extreme and Origins
Play'n GO has extended the name into Rise of Olympus 100, Rise of Olympus Extreme and Rise of Olympus Origins. They share the theme but not the maths, so the figures here apply only to the 2018 original. Pragmatic Play's Gates of Olympus uses a similar setting but is an unrelated game, and Play'n GO's Tome of Madness is another cascading grid from the same studio. Several licensed casinos list Play'n GO among their providers and appear beside this review. No demo is hosted here; licensed casinos may offer one after age verification.
