The symbols you will land during your gameplay include A to J royals as well as four gladiator symbols – Scissor, Provocator, Murmillio, and Rectiarus. They act as scatters. The tiger is the wild that replaces all symbols except for the scatters to help you create a winning combination.
Primus Mystery Features
The Primus Mystery are randomly triggered features during the base game:
Fame – a gladiator symbol is picked and your payout is determined according to the Battle Prize paytable
Spear Attack – 3-6 wilds are randomly added to the reels
Sword Attack – reel 1 is duplicated 2-4 times
Net Attack – you get 1 free spin and all gladiator symbols of the same kind remain locked in place for the duration of that free spin
Enraged – you get 2 wild reels
Enter the Arena Battle Feature
Land 3 Portcullis scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 to trigger the feature. Then, you will be prompted to select a champion (the male champion Spartacus or the female champion Amazonia). The champion you choose will act as a scatter for the duration of the Enter the Arena Battle feature. Battle will commence every time you land the scatter you have chosen. When you land at least two high-value identical symbols, they will be grouped above the playing field. Every scatter that lands will attack the group(s) of high-value symbols.
If you land one scatter, one group of identical symbols will be attacked. If you land two scatters, two groups of identical symbols will be attacked, etc. The battle prize will also be multiplied accordingly (x2, x3, etc.)
You get free spins until the outcome of the battle is clear. The battle is over when the Battle meter is full or all groups are defeated or lost.
The champion you selected determines your prize. If you have chosen Amazonia, your prize will be a multiplier between x20 and x100. If you have chosen Spartacus, the Enter the Arena Battle feature will be re-triggered.
Bottom line
Game of Gladiators is a promising title. If you are into the gladiator-themed slots, we recommend you to check out Yggdrasil’s Champions of Rome until the Game of Gladiators comes out in June 2019.
