Ridley Scott has created some cracking films over the past couple of decades and Gladiator is arguably one of the best. Russell Crowe played Maximus, a loyal General cast aside by the new Emperor who cruelly ordered the killing of his family.
This is an officially licensed video slot which is based on the film. It features cut scenes, animations and even sound effects to thrill players and help them relive key moments of the story over five reels of gameplay.
Gladiator Slot Gameplay and Theme
Nearly all the main characters make an appearance on the reels with the noticeable absence of Maximus, Russell Crowe's character. Proximo, Lucilla, Commodus, Gracchus and Juba appear alongside an impressive image of the Colosseum.
The reels are surrounded by the great arena with various other black and gold icons also included on the reels. The most interesting ones are the characters because each one triggers a short sequence from the film, this is definitely one for the fans.
Betting Options and More Options
The betting range is on the same gargantuan proportions as the Colosseum because players can choose anything from 0.02 to £/€/$6,250. That's one of the largest ranges we've ever encountered and caters for all budgets.
Playtech provide an additional opportunity to gamble any wins up to £2,500. Pressing the gamble button presents a deck of cards and prompts you to predict whether the next card will be red or black. A correct guess doubles your win, although an incorrect guess will result in a loss of all your winnings.
Gladiator Slot Features
Didn't you think it funny that Maximus managed to pick the coolest mask before entering the arena? On this slot it doesn't only look cool but also unlocks a duo of cool features. First off it is wild on reels two, three and four for every other icon except the scatter and if three appear your win entry into the first Gladiator bonus feature.
The first feature presents a selection of Gladiator masks. Nine are randomly selected to reveal bonus wins which are credited to your overall balance. This is a great looking feature and pays well too.
Three or more Colosseum icons will award the Colosseum bonus game which presents a number of stones in columns. You choose a stone from each one to reveal bonus wins, multipliers or free spins. You are able to collect or continue right away to the free bonus spins which play immediately after collection with the awarded multiplier.
Our Take on Gladiator
The film is still an epic watch, it is full of memorable moments which have been included on this slot. We really enjoyed the bonus games too and the prizes are truly epic. Players can win up to $1,250,000 which is quite a prize, you'd be able to visit the Colosseum in Rome and still have plenty to spare!
