Fans of Greek mythology will be delighted with our online slot, Fury of Zeus. This 5-reel, 20-payline game takes you up to Mount Olympus, where the most prominent Greek gods reside.

The creators at Woohoo Games have done an excellent job taking the familiar format of 5-reel slots and stylizing it to create a novel experience for online slots players. While this means you can dive in and follow the action intuitively, we always recommend reading a guide first. Understanding the game features and bonuses will give you a better appreciation for what’s to come.
In our comprehensive slot guide on Fury of Zeus, we look at the game’s format, theme, graphics, and key features. This isn’t your average slot. Zeus is the kings of gods after all, and this game was created to honour the powerful mythical figure in Greek mythology. Enjoy the epic gameplay that it entails.
Gameplay & Design
This Greek mythology-inspired slot looks to be set in Mount Olympus. While it is a real mountain in Greece, it’s considered the home of the Olympian gods in Greek mythology. The background is Zeus’ mythical palace depicted in 3D glory. Marble columns and statues of Emperors make a stately impression through cloud mist in this remarkable slot game.
The orchestral soundtrack and sound effects combine to create a level of intensity befitting the powerful theme. But if you prefer to play in silence, you can turn off the music and sound effects in the game settings. This is also where you’ll find the toggle for Quick Spin, which gives you a much speedier game experience than the standard mode.
Bets start at $0.20 a round and go up to a maximum of $200 per round, making this game suitable for bankrolls of all sizes. You can manually spin the reels with the “Spin” button, or space bar, or set things on autopilot with the AutoPlay feature. AutoPlay Options include 10, 25, 50, 100 or infinity rounds. Cancel the feature at any time.
On the five reels, you’ll see some of Greek mythology’s biggest stars. Zeus is the highest-ranking symbol—he is unmistakable with lightning bolts shooting from his stoic eyes. His wife, Hera is the second-highest ranking symbol and followed by Zeus’ brother, Poseidon, Lord of the Sea. One of Zeus’ many sons, Ares, who is associated with war and violence, can be seen with bright red eyes and a fiery background.
For the Greek God symbols, simply landing two or more on any of the game’s 20 paylines will trigger a payout. Zeus offers the biggest pay, which is 2500X your bet when you land five in a row. As for the low symbols (9 to A), three or more are needed to trigger their more modest payouts. You can expect a cap of 125X your bet when you land five Aces on a payline.
Fury of Zeus has a generous 96% Return to Player (RTP) rate. The RTP rate is theoretical and represents the return you’d expect to receive from every dollar bet. The longer you play, the more accurate RTPs become.
Key Features
Scatters
Scatters are included to spice up gameplay in the base game. Displayed as a cloud-view of Mount Olympus, they offer instant cash prizes when you land two or more anywhere on the reels; prizes range from 1X to 100X your total bet, which isn’t huge, but they do more than just spit out a payout.
Scatters also combine with wilds to trigger the game’s free spins bonus round, as we’ll discuss shortly. You need one to land on the fifth reel and a wild to land elsewhere to trigger the game’s free spins.
Wilds
The wilds in Fury of Zeus have many benefits. First, they offer instant cash prizes that go up to 2500X your bet; that’s the same payout for landing a full five-match line of Zeus. Second, they substitute for other game symbols in order to create a winning line. For example, when landing 10-Wild-10 on a payline, the combo would turn into 10-10-10, leading to a boost in win frequency.
Lastly, when the wild does facilitate a winning line, it applies a 3X multiplier to the payout, tripling its dollar value. It’s a wild infused with the power of Zeus, making for a very valuable bonus feature.
Progressive Jackpot
It’s becoming rare for progressive jackpots to be included in slot games nowadays, but Fury of Zeus has one. For every dollar bet on this game, a portion goes to the pot, which grows and grows until someone wins it and it gets reset with a starting value.
The only way to win the jackpot in Fury of Zeus is to play. It’s a random progressive jackpot meaning it’s triggered randomly at the conclusion of any given round. There’s no minimum bet required.
To see the jackpot’s current value, check above the reels where you’ll see the dollar amount on display. As is the case with all of our progressive jackpot games, you can also see the current value on the game card on the All Slots page. This makes it easy to scan and compare progressive jackpots before picking a game to play. Always pick the game with the biggest jackpot if you’re keen to join the Jackpot Winners’ Circle.
Bonus Rounds
Free Spins
A special combination of symbols unlocks the free spins round in Fury of Zeus. A scatter must land on Reel No. 5 at the same time that one (or more) wilds land anywhere else on the reels. If you land this combo, you get 10 free rounds in a solo session with Zeus.
The reels in free spins mode are suspended in the clouds and electrified with lightning. Zeus levitates to the left of them, channelling his power into the reels in unexpected ways.
Throughout all of free spins, prizes are doubled thanks to Zeus’ 2X multiplier. The session can and often is extended from the original 10 rounds. With every wild that lands on the reels, Zeus transforms it into an extra spin icon. They can be +1, +2, +3, +4 or +5 extra spins, which are added to your running count. When we trialed the game, we managed to reach 53 free spins before they ran out.
Casino Crypto Play
At Bodog Casino, we don’t just welcome cryptocurrency as a deposit option, we encourage it. It has far fewer limitations than the more traditional transaction options, such as Interac e-Transfer and credit cards. With crypto, you can place a deposit and be guaranteed that it will appear in your Bodog account with no blocks by third parties.
It is also much faster to be paid with crypto than it is with a cheque that’s delivered by a courier company. After we authorize your withdrawal request, you could see the requested payment appear in your digital wallet in just an hour, depending on the type of crypto you want to be paid with. Then you can exchange it for Canadian dollars at your online regulated crypto exchange.
You can see why crypto is quickly becoming a popular option with savvy casino players. To encourage new players to try it, we offer a 150% match bonus to first-time crypto depositors. This can get you up to $900 to use in our casino, as well as 100 free spins on a popular slot game called Gods of Luxor—a different take on the deity theme.
This promotion is connected with six different types of cryptocurrency—all of which are supported here at Bodog. Bitcoin is the biggest one that most people are familiar with, but we also take Bitcoin SV and Bitcoin Cash. Anyone who prefers stablecoins will get what they want with USD Tether. Lastly, Litecoin and Ethereum round out the offerings with alternatives to Bitcoin. See how these coins differ from each other by checking out our What Cryptocurrency is Best for Me page. Transaction speeds, fees, and wallet and exchange compatibility are all compared on the chart, giving you good insight on these currencies.
All of the games in our casino can be played with real money by our crypto community, and that includes slots like Fury of Zeus. If you enjoy it, you will almost certainly enjoy Rise of Triton too. Another character in the Greek mythology realm, Triton is the son of Zeus’ brother Poseidon, and like Poseidon, he is also connected with the sea.
For those who prefer their history lessons to be earth-bound and mortal, try the Megaways slot, Book of Cats, or the Western prospecting slot, River of Gold. Both are worth a test-run on Practice Play mode.
