Gladiator Jackpot Slot - NZ Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

The Story of a Gladiator

In the Oscar-winning movie that this slot is based on, General Maximus is thrown out of the Roman army that he once so proudly served. His whole family is murdered, and he is captured and imprisoned and made to perform as a gladiator, entertaining the crowds at the Coliseum and his arch nemesis, the Emperor Commodus. Maximus becomes increasingly popular as he performs so well, ultimately leading to Commodus challenging him to a fight… and that’s where Gladiator Jackpot comes in!

Epic Slots Play

Gladiator Jackpot from Playtech is set inside the Coliseum, with the iconic amphitheatre forming the backdrop to the reels. It's a five-reel, 25-payline game, and you’ll find an assortment of characters from the Ridley Scott-directed movie making up the game’s symbols, along with lower-value icons depicted by the traditional playing cards. An epic soundtrack accompanies every spin and adds to the sense of anticipation and excitement.

Crowd-Pleasing Bonuses

Maximus was great at pleasing the crowd, but the Gladiator Jackpot Coliseum bonus is sure to please you! Triggered by landing between three and five of the Scatter Coliseum symbols anywhere on the reels simultaneously, this bonus sees you pick stones from the Coliseum wall to reveal rewards. In row one you’ll uncover free spins, while in the second row you’ll find multipliers. Extra Scatters and Wilds are revealed in rows three and four, and these will come in to play in your free spins. If Commodus appears on reel three during the free spins, you’ll be rewarded with an additional three free spins, and all triggering Scatter symbols also award a total bet multiplier of up to a whopping 100x.

Prizes Galore

Gladiator Jackpot is full of prizes and payouts, and spinning the reels can be very rewarding. Up to 250 coins are paid out for lining up Juba the Champion Gladiator and for Proximo, who takes on the role of the Gladiator’s trainer. Senator Gracchus pays out up to 350 coins, while Commodus's sister Lucilla, who wants to help Maximus, can pay out up to 1000 coins. The Gladiator himself is the highest-paying symbol, paying out a massive 5000 coins for lining up five in a row! There’s also a Wild to help you win, and the Gladiator mask can stand in for all standard symbols to complete a winning combination. The mask is also the key to unlocking the Gladiator bonus, in which you’ll choose from nine gold helmets to reveal a prize. Add to this a Gamble Feature that sees you potentially double your win in a simple card game and it's easy to see why Gladiator Jackpot is as epic a slots game as the movie!
