Age of the Gods is the game that started Playtech's biggest progressive jackpot series, and it is still one of the most recognisable Greek mythology slots in British casinos. It arrived at the end of 2016, sets Zeus, Athena, Poseidon and Hercules across five reels, and wires them into a four tier jackpot network that can trigger on any spin. This page covers that original title, not the many sequels and spin offs that later borrowed the name.
How Age of the Gods plays
The layout is a straightforward five reel, three row grid with 20 fixed paylines, so only the total stake changes, and wins pay from the leftmost reel across. The four gods head the paytable, and the wild above them pays best of all, unusually from two matching symbols rather than three.
The Age of the Gods logo is the scatter. Three, four or five of them anywhere return a fixed 3x, 10x or 100x your total stake, and the same landing opens a coin pick screen. You turn coins over until three matching god icons appear, and that god decides which round you play. All four give nine free spins and each behaves differently: Athena applies a random 2x to 5x multiplier to every win, Zeus starts on 1x and adds another 1x every three spins with a wild locked on the middle reel, Poseidon turns up to five random symbols wild on each spin, and Hercules parks a full stacked wild on the middle reel throughout. When a round ends you go back to the coin screen for a shot at a second feature.
Age of the Gods RTP, volatility and jackpots
The default return to player is 95.02%, and that includes a 0.99% contribution to the progressive pools, so the money returned through the reels themselves is a shade under 95%. Playtech ships its games in more than one build, so check the information screen in the client for the figure your casino is running.
Volatility is medium. Line wins land often enough to keep a balance moving and the free spins are reachable, but the modifiers are capped and the base game rarely produces one enormous hit. The outsized prize here is not meant to come from the reels at all.
There is no meaningful fixed maximum win multiple for this game. Four pools sit above the base game: Power, Extra Power, Super Power and Ultimate Power, each seeded at a rising amount and growing until it drops. The jackpot game appears at random on any base spin, including losing ones, and shows you 20 coins; match three identical jackpot symbols and that tier pays. The pools are shared across Playtech's whole Age of the Gods network, which is why the top tier reaches the size it does, and a bigger stake improves your chance of the jackpot game appearing. Databases listing a ceiling of around 10,000x stake are describing the base game, not the jackpots.
Playing Age of the Gods
Age of the Gods is a fixture at UK licensed online casinos running Playtech content, and the operators listed on this page carry it. The free demo runs in your browser on play money with no account, deposit or registration, so you can try the coin pick and all four free games modes first. What a demo cannot do is award the progressive jackpots, because those pools are funded by real stakes. Where a casino attaches free spins to this title, they carry their own conditions, including wagering requirements and expiry dates, so read the operator's terms first.
Is Age of the Gods worth playing?
It is worth a look if you like an uncomplicated slot with a long shot attached. The four free games variants give the feature more character than the coin pick suggests, and nothing about the game needs learning. The counterweight is the return: 95.02% is below the current average, and part of what you give up funds a jackpot most players will never see. If progressive prizes hold no appeal, your money goes further elsewhere.
The particular risk with this one is the stake weighting. Knowing that bigger bets improve the jackpot odds nudges players into spending more per spin than they intended, and no amount of play brings a random jackpot closer, because every spin is judged on its own. Let what the entertainment is worth to you set the stake, not the size of the Ultimate Power pool, and if chasing that pool starts to feel like the point, the guidance and blocking tools on our responsible gambling page are the right next step.
Frequently Asked Questions
The default return to player is 95.02%, which includes a 0.99% contribution to the four progressive jackpot pools. Playtech supplies its games to operators in more than one configuration, so check the information screen inside the game at your chosen casino to confirm the figure in use.
There are four tiers: Power, Extra Power, Super Power and Ultimate Power. The jackpot game triggers at random on any base game spin, including losing spins, and shows you 20 coins. Matching three identical jackpot symbols wins that tier. The pools are shared across Playtech's Age of the Gods network, and a higher stake improves the chance of the jackpot game appearing.
Yes. The demo on this page runs on play money in your browser with no account, deposit or registration needed, and it includes the coin pick and all four free games rounds. Progressive jackpots cannot be won in demo mode, because those pools are funded by real money stakes.
Every free games round gives nine spins, and the coin pick decides which of the four you get. Athena adds a random 2x to 5x multiplier, Zeus builds a multiplier that rises every three spins alongside a locked middle reel wild, Poseidon turns up to five symbols wild per spin, and Hercules keeps a fully stacked wild on the middle reel.
No, it sits in the medium band. Line wins land regularly and the free games rounds are reachable, but the base game is not built around one huge hit. The big money is concentrated in the random progressive jackpots rather than in the reels.
No. This is the original 2016 release that launched the series. The later titles, from Furious Four onwards, are separate games with their own reels, features and RTP figures, although they feed and can pay the same four shared jackpots.
