Gladius KO Slot Review

How to play

Gladius K.O slot features six reels and each reel has four rows. This allows for more potential winning combinations than standard 5x3 slot games. Also, this game has 50 paylines that are fixed and always in play.

In terms of bet values, you can only change the overall bet value – this makes the game relatively easy to play. The minimum bet value is €0.50, and the maximum bet value is €500. This makes the game suitable for both low spenders and high rollers. All line wins are multiplied by the bet per line, which is your total stake divided by 50.

Gladius K.O also has a decent autoplay feature. You can select the number of spins from 10 to 100. Also, you can set loss limits, or set maxim win limits. There is also a handy turbo spin option that decreases the animation time for the spins. 

Symbols and payouts

Gladius K.O slot has nine basic symbols. These symbols have a theme of weapons and treasure, and items of war you would find during the era of the Roman Empire. These symbols are a 10, J, Q, K, A, crossed swords, an axe, a silver shield, and a golden Roman coin.

The letters and numbers are the lowest paying symbols – these are styled like burnished metal. The lowest paying symbol is the 10 which has a minimum multiplier of 5x for three symbols. Alternatively, the highest paying of the lower symbols is the A which has a maximum multiplier of 700x for six symbols.

Of the higher paying symbols, the golden Roman coin is the single highest paying symbol in the basic paytable. If you get six golden coins, you get a fantastic multiplier of 4,000x. 

Aside from the basic symbols, there is also a range of special symbols. Firstly, there is the Marching Wild symbol. This is a flaming eagle which was the symbol of the Roman Empire. This symbol appears on all six reels and moves from left to right. As it moves, the multiplier increases from 1x to a maximum of 6x. This can greatly boost your prize fund from winning combinations.

Best Gladius K.O bonus feature

The Gladius K.O bonus feature is a simple game of luck. There are no Gladius K.O free spins, but instead, the bonus game is triggered if you get four or more treasure chests aligned horizontally and adjacent to each other.

The chests open and reveal how many rounds of the shell game you have won. This game is based on an ancient sleight of hand game in which you must guess which shell the coin is under. You must select one of three shells to reveal if you have won a prize.

Gladius K.O also has a fun knock-out feature that is present in many Green Jade slot games. The golden discs on the right charge after every five paid spins. You can then fire the discs at the slot reels to destroy symbols. Using these discs you can try to get a better chance of getting multiple chests and thus unlocking the bonus rounds. 

RTP & Volatility

The Gladius K.O RTP is 95.16% which is OK and is between the current accepted industry average of 95-96%. Gladius K.O slot is also considered to be a medium-high volatility slot game. This means it is somewhere in-between these two variance classifications. As a result, you can expect to win semi-infrequently, but when you do, you can expect some larger jackpot prizes.
