Gladiator Jackpot

When I was just a little boy, my father would take me to see movies, lots of movies. Of Cowboys, Red Indians, Romans, and including modern war movies too, like The Longest Day. Aah, not really, I was already grown up by that time, so I saw that one on my own, or was that with a girlfriend? Gees, I can't remember, but never mind. Roman action movies have always been my favourite in those days, movies like The Trojan Horse, Cleopatra, Hercules and Ben Hur. Nowadays, I like to watch 'Bend Her' movies at times, but that's a totally different category! Hahaha.

So it isn't surprising at all that this Gladiator soon became one of my favourite slot games too. Movie video clips keep the play exciting, the free spins games were thrilling, and the Jackpot Bonus games were exhilarating and killing! At times, I could feel my heart beating like hell, trying to get out of my body, but I kept everything steady, hehehe. That was that time when I got a Jackpot Bonus game, and the Golden Helmets starting appearing one by one by one! In my head, I was going all crazy like "oooh my god!...2 million jackpot!...come on!...come on!...all Golden Helmets...PUH-leeease!...five up already..." Ooh boy, my butts couldn't sit still when the 7th Golden Helmet appeared! Just two more to go...to 2 million jackpot! Then the 8th appeared...SILVER! Damn! WTF must a silver helmet spoil all my happiness? Why oh why?! God didn't answer. There was only silence, hahaha. Then the last 9th helmet came, another gold one. Blardy hell, I was saying to myself, missed by one blardy silver helmet, a blardy 2-million-dollar silver helmet!

That day could have been my best day ever, but it turned out to be my worst day! My best day if I had won that huge jackpot that could have changed my whole life forever. My worst day because I missed getting it for another two more times within that same blardy day!!! One missed by yet another silver helmet. The other one missed by three silver helmets. Damn! Why oh why?! How can anyone be so unlucky, not once but three times in a single day?! No answer of course, just silence! Hehehe.

Well, that Jackpot Bonus game is the one thing to keep looking out for, but the free spins games were no less exciting. I managed to pick out one item each from the pyramid of choices, getting free spins, a win multiplier, a special scatter and an extra Wild at the very top of the pyramid. The final payout was good, but not huge, because the scatter symbol wasn't the Queen or the Emperor. That would give a real whopper of a win if you can get 4 or 5 of them! So far, I have reached this level of free spins game not more than 10 times. I have won all 10s and all Js, whilst the others were never full. I had the Emperor and the Queen too, but none of them came in threes to activate the symbol scattering game. That was also a big disappointment for me, because both these two symbols could pay really big in the scattering game. Imagine getting 5 scatters of the Emperor, then see how it would expand and cover all the 5 reels! Oooh-boy! I hope one day I can get to see this too, but never forgetting all the Golden Helmets of course! Hahaha.

Why do we gamble? For a chance to win big, to solve all our financial problems and to be a bit famous for winning a progressive Jackpot. Whenever I sit down to play this game I take a look at the jackpot amount and the last time I played it there were about 2 million euros. Hitting a sum like that seems impossible but in a gamblers mind there is always hope that one day that amount will be transferred to my balance.

This version of the game is totally identical like the original Gladiator slot. Standard 25 paylines, 5 reels and with the same bonus features. The only difference is that in the Gladiator bonus you have a chance to win millions. The gladiator bonus is triggered when you get 3 helmets on reels 2, 3 and 4. The helmets are wild symbols so even by getting them you have a chance for some nice 5 of a kind combination wins. In the bonus 9 helmets are revealed and they can be in gold, silver or in bronze. Some day one lucky player will see all 9 gold helmets on the screen and all of his financial problems will be solved. Off course every time I get this bonus I hope it’s gonna be me but the most I have gotten so far is only 7. The second feature of the game is the coliseum bonus. Here if you get 3 scattered coliseums anywhere on the reels you are taken to the coliseum bonus where you have a chance to win extra features like free games with multipliers, extra scatters and extra wilds. I have never managed to unlock all of the features in this bonus so I can’t say I had some big wins.

The fact remains that all of us including me play this game only for the ultimate payout from the progressive jackpot. If you want to play this game just for some big wins you better play the regular version because the jackpot version is a bit tighter when it comes to regular payouts.

Gladiator jackpot game it is remake of original gladiator game made by playtech. This is great online slot, one of the best i ever played, and definetely it is one of the best slots by playtech ever.

Gladiator jackpot has 25 paylines ,and there is not big difference between jackpot version and this one. Generally there is only one difference - at jackpot version you can win jackpot, very nice money, and of course glory because i think a lot of websites will write news about this win.

To win jackpot you need to enter bonus game, the way to enter it is left unchanged from original game - you need 3 helmets each at reel 2,3 and 4, and then bonus game is start. Then just get 9 golden helmets, and that's it, you win jackpot. Very easy...In theory.

I have played this slot a lot, and have many jackpot bonus games, had 8 golden helmets in a row probably 10 times, and last one was never golden. Imagine this feeling when you one step away from huge money, and then just bronze. And then again, and again. Painful it is.

Freespins feature is the same, 3 or more scatters and picking prefreespins game is starting. You can choose amounts of freespins, multiplier, and if picks was in correct way extra scatters, and very rare extra wild.

Generally there is no any difference with gladiator original slots, if only now it is a bit harded to get bonus game. Everything esle is same, and this is still great online slot.

My best result at jackpot version of game is much more lower than at original game, but to compare honest i must say that i played jackpot version much less than original. Best feature i had was about 100 x total bet, a bit less i think. Nothing special, but feature triggered often, and it is a lot of fun to play this game.
