Gladiator of Rome

Are you a history buff with a passion for the ancient world? Or simply a slot lover who can’t resist 30 Free Spins?

Either way, Gladiator of Rome slot from 1 x 2 Gaming will have even the meekest of chaps oiling up, Roman-style, for slot battle!

The Romans loved their entertainment served up in the most brutal fashion – and did you know that gladiators were actually slaves put in the ring to fight to the death!?

The Basics

It seems that there’s an insatiable appetite for Roman-themed slots in Slotland, but how will this game measure up to the rest? With  a x3 multiplier in the Free Spins round, we could be looking at a new Monkey favourite.

The Graphics

Gladiator training often took place in outposts of the Roman Empire – and behind the reels you will spy the baking hot sands of a desert training camp (Egypt perhaps?).

The reels are transparent, while the control panel is set on some ancient-looking parchment which is a nice touch. A dramatic drum soundtrack adds to the serious atmosphere…

Gladiator of Rome Slot Game Play

Get ready for a cash battle over 3 rows, 5 reels and solid 20 pay-lines!

A Roman emperor wearing a laurel wreath tops the pay table, land x5 of these and get your hands on 1,000 coins. Next, a highly decorated gold and silver shield and sword, and a charioteer and horses complete the high-value icons.

The mid-value icons are the bronze shield, followed by a golden eagle (the symbol of the Roman army), a shirtless male gladiator and finally a long-haired female fighter. Who knew that those Roman ladies were such tough nuts?

The dramatic Wild is the roaring fighter, while the Bonus icon is a pair of gladiators, mid-tussle. A warning though, these battle-worn Bonus fighters only appear on the middle 3 reels.

The Bonuses

Up to 30 free spins are yours for the taking if you can land a trio of bonus icons on reels 3, 4 and 5. And because those Romans knew how to gain favour, they’ve boosted the free spins game too…

Any wins you generate in the first 10 spins will be awarded a x1 multiplier, while wins generated between 10 and 20 spins are subject to a double multiplier. Not bad at all!

Strike Roman gold and make your wins between your 20th and 30th free games and your prizes are subject to a x3 multiplier. Ingenious! Is it any wonder the Roman’s ruled 21% of the whole world in ancient times?

Monkey Verdict

Gladiator of Rome slot is a respectable addition to the genre of games themed by the Roman Empire. The base game payouts can be reasonable, which is just as well, considering Free Spins can be a bit tricky to trigger…

Score: 4 out of 5 bananas

for an epic journey into ancient Rome.
