This slot is exactly the same as the original Playtech slot based on the iconic Russell Crowe movie. Perhaps the only difference is that this version has a progressive jackpot. The movie on which this slot is based was one of the most successful films of all time, and the slot certainly shows promise of going the same way.

Gameplay begins with setting your bets. You may start by clicking on the Lines +/- tabs to set the number of lines you want to play. You may then click on the Line Bet +/- tabs to set the amount you want to wager per line. To set the reels into motion, click on the Spin tab at the rightmost end of the control panel. You may also click on the Turbo Mode tab to quicken the pace of the reels. For a chosen number of uninterrupted spins, click on the Autoplay tab to the left of the Turbo Mode tab.

Feature Symbols

The base game symbols are the same as in the non-progressive version of this slot. The game’s low-value symbols are represented by familiar playing card symbols. You will see golden 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A symbols. The high-value symbols are all theme-related, featuring five popular characters from the movie. You will see Proximo, Juba, Lucilla, Senator Gracchus, and Commodus.

The game’s Wild symbol is represented by a silver gladiator’s helmet. This symbol only appears on the second, third, and fourth reels. It can substitute for any of the other base game symbols, with the exception of the Scatter symbol. It is also key to one of the game’s main bonus rounds. The game’s Scatter symbol is represented by the Coliseum. This symbol pays out on its own and is also key to the game’s other bonus round.

Bonus Rounds

One of the game’s exciting bonus features is the Gladiator Jackpot Bonus. This is activated when you land three of the Wild symbols on the second, third, and fourth reels. A short clip from the movie will be shown, and you will be rewarded with instant wins that are anywhere between 2x and 5x your wager. If nine gold helmets are revealed during this bonus feature, you win the progressive jackpot.

The game’s other bonus round is the Coliseum Bonus. This is activated when you land at least three Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. You will be brought to a different screen, where you get to pick a stone from each row, starting from the bottom.

The bottom row determines the number of free spins you get. The second row reveals the multiplier value of all wins you get in the round. The third row will reveal the symbol that will become an Extra Scatter during the round. The top row will reveal which character symbol will become an Extra Wild during the bonus round.

This bonus feature cannot be re-triggered, but if you manage to land the Commodus symbol on the middle reel, you will get three more free spins. The good news is that the Gladiator Jackpot Bonus can be triggered from this round as well.
