Gladiator Jackpot slot comes in two forms (a standard non-progressive game, and a progressive jackpot version). We’ll be looking at the latter.
It is based on Ridley Scott’s 2000 movie of the same name, which starred Russell Crowe. Speaking of him, all of the characters from the movie are represented in this game save for Maximus, which is a shame.
Players can choose coin sizes of 1p up to £5 in this slot, and stake between 1 and 10 of those per line. Ultimately, you are going to find yourself wagering between 1p per line per spin, and a whopping £1,250 per spin in this slot. The good news is, you could win millions with the progressive jackpot.
Special features
Instead of Maximus, what we get is Maximus’ helmet. This symbols appears as the wild icon on the game, capable of replacing all others save for the Coliseum. This icon can only appear on the second, third and fourth reels.
The scatter icon in Gladiator is the Coliseum. When it appears 2, 3, 4 or 5 times, it will award the player with scattered wins of 1x, 4x, 20x or 100x their total bet. Three or more strikes of this symbol in any position on the reels will also offer the player a free spins bonus. Clicking on rows of symbols will see the player land a number of spins, multipliers and potentially extra wilds before the free spins bonus begins.
Gladiator’s progressive jackpot
If the player lands 3 of the helmet icons (wilds) on the reels, then they will also trigger a Gladiator Bonus game. In this bonus, players can potentially win the progressive jackpot, by lining up 9 golden helmets. Any other amount will result in a decent, secondary cash prize. In the non-progressive game, this bonus will result in a cash prize based on how many bronze, silver or golden helmets you acquire.
Overview
Gladiator is a huge popular slot game from Playtech. The free spins bonus is one of the most profitable in the mobile casino world, and the slot is capable of delivering one of the biggest progressive jackpots on the net, everybody should attempt to play Gladiator at least once.
