Sword of Ares Bitcoin Slot Review
As the son of the Greek gods Zeus and Hera and one of 12 Olympians, Ares was known as the God of War. Sword of Ares is the inspiration behind Pragmatic Play‘s 6×5 (reels x rows) and 8+ pay anywhere bitcoin slot, with high volatility rewarding up to 10,000x bet.
With the animated God of War (sword in hand) standing to the right of the reels and the sombre soundtrack, Sword of Ares is a serious bitcoin slot. Four (4) weapons are the upper-paying, including a helmet (max 20x payout), chariot, shield and sword. Then, five (5) geometrically cut gems are the lower-paying symbols with payouts ranging from 0.25x-3.0x bet.
The RTP of Sword of Ares is a middling 96.40%, and possible bets range from 0.20-100. Bitcoin slots based on Greek mythology are a popular category. So, for two others, check out Valkyries from Yggdrasil or Power of Gods: Hades from Wazdan.
This bitcoin slot uses an interesting pay anywhere mechanic where 8+ identical symbols in the playing area connect to create a winning combination. Collecting a win will take 8-9, 10-11, or 12-30 identical symbols.
The ‘tumble feature’ is a conventional mechanic where winning symbols explode, causing a tumble of new ones. This action can repeat, at no cost, provided that the last tumble created a new winning combination.
The bitcoin slot also has 4 ‘bomb’ symbols, hitting the reels during free spins or the main game. It remains in the playing area until the end of the tumbles. At this point, they explode, removing symbols horizontally, vertically or in an ‘x’ pattern, potentially leading to another win and tumble.
Above the playing area sits the multiplier collection metre containing three blocked multiplier values during the main game and six blocked multiplier values during free spins. Winning symbols during spins and tumbles are collected by hitting thresholds, unlocking multipliers applied to a total win:
- 20 symbols collected unlock the 1st multiplier of 2x-4x
- 50 symbols collected unlock the 2nd multiplier of 5x-8x
- 100 symbols collected unlock the 3rd multiplier of 9x-15x
The God of War is the scatter symbol that can land on any reel and award a scatter win of 3x, 15x, or 100x bet in sets of 4, 5 or 6. Scatters don’t explode like other symbols when participating in a win, giving players a chance to win again and activating the free spins bonus. When 4+ scatters land, they unlock 15 free spins with a multiplier metre:
- 15 symbols collected unlock the 1st multiplier of 2x-4x
- 30 symbols collected unlock the 2nd multiplier of 5x-8x
- 45 symbols collected unlock the 3rd multiplier of 9x-15x
- 60 symbols collected unlock the 4th multiplier of 16x, 18x, 20x, 22x, 25x, 30x or 32x
- 100 symbols collected unlock the 5th multiplier of 35x, 38x, 40x, 45x, 50x, 60x, or 100x
- 225 symbols collected unlock the 6th multiplier of 150x, 200x, 300x, or 500x
If you’re impatient to get into the free spins game, it may be possible to use a buy free spins option at the price of 100x for immediate entry.
Take the Sword of Ares bitcoin slot in your pocket on any Android or iOS device, or enjoy it from a desktop. The choice is yours!
