Top Casinos with Gladiator

1/3

Overview

Gladiator has been one of the best-received big screen adaptations in a sector where new movie tie-ins are announced every week. Developed by Playtech, one of the leading game creators in the industry, the movie’s appeal has been skillfully transferred onto the reels.

The game features many of the movie’s iconic characters in Lucilla, Commodore, Gracchus and Juba, but Maximus himself won’t be making an appearance. Besides that, the slot presents a couple of lucrative bonus features that are key to its enduring success.

Gameplay and Features

At its core, Gladiator features a staple video slot configuration consisting of 5 reels and 25 paylines.

Naturally, the game’s main draws are its two bonus rounds. First we have the Gladiator Bonus, which can be activated via the Wild (Gladiator Mask) symbols, and which can only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4. The Wild also substitutes for all other symbols, bar the Scatter.

The Gladiator Bonus is a rather straightforward “click to win” bonus feature, in which you can click on nine helmets in any order you want and be given a varying cash prize.

Three or more Scatter symbols set the player on the path towards the Coliseum Bonus round. Once you’ve triggered this feature, you get to choose between various symbols in order to determine your free spins total, the multiplier and the amount of extra Wild and Scatter symbols. The potential here is quite high, and this is by far Gladiator’s most lucrative feature.

The slot also lets you gamble on any winning spin, offering a chance to double up by guessing the correct card colour between red and black. You can double up until you’ve reached the limit of $1,250, but in general we do not recommend this feature as you can forfeit all winnings with just a single incorrect guess.

Graphics and Sound

Gladiator is a fairly dated slot and the graphics are an instant giveaway. The game features real character images taken straight from the movie itself, which is a good thing, but other than that don’t expect to derive too much enjoyment from the graphics.

What we believe more than makes up for that fact are the animations, in the form of actual movie scenes, which are triggered when the character symbols form a winning combination. That, coupled with the rousing soundtrack, evens out the game’s appeal in terms of aesthetics.

Review Summary

On the whole, Gladiator is not the “wildest” slot you will come across in your online gaming ventures. Still, its standard slot formula consisting of Scatters, Wilds and “traditional” bonus rounds has always proved popular among players.

At the end of the day, nothing matters more than a slot’s winning potential, something which Gladiator excels at. The omission of the movie’s most iconic star, Maximus himself, does hurt the game’s flair a bit, but we don’t believe it’ll affect your overall experience all that much.
