Summary:
- Pragmatic Play releases Eye of Spartacus slot
- Betting range from $/€0.20 – $/€240
- Max win of 10,000x
Pragmatic Play’s new “Eye of Spartacus” slot brings the legendary tale of the Thracian rebel leader to life in a fiery, battle-scarred Roman setting. Far from a history lesson, this slot is all about action, complete with multipliers, wilds, and an evolving free spins feature that keeps the energy high and the gameplay intense.
Set against a vivid, blood-red sky over what looks like a gladiator training yard, the game unfolds on a 5×5 grid with 15 paylines.
The high-volatility slot experience is appealing to players seeking for fats thrills and the chance of landing unexpected huge payouts.
Bets start as low as 20 cents and can be valued at as much as €240 per spin, with a maximum RTP of 96.42%.
Symbols are divided into two tiers, including low value cards (royals from 10 through A), and high value cards including swords, chariots, fierce tigers, and warriors. Hitting five of the premium symbols can pay out up to 25 times your bet.
The regular wild matches the value of the top-paying symbol and substitutes for all other regular pay icons.
Special Features
However, the real drama kicks off with the Expanding Wild Multiplier. This feature stars a golden-helmeted gladiator who appears only on reels two, three, and four.
When he shows up, he expands to fill the entire reel and engages in a “battle” to randomly assign a multiplier between x2 and x100.
This multiplier applies to any wins involving the wild. Only one expanding wild can appear at a time, but that’s often enough to create massive payout potential.
Free Spins turn up the intensity. Land three, four, or five scatter symbols to receive 10, 15, or 20 spins. During this round, any expanding wild not only applies its multiplier but also upgrades the lowest high-value symbol on the reels to the next tier, making future spins even more rewarding.
Each expansion also grants an extra spin. Once all high symbols are upgraded to the top-tier icon, the transformation ends.
Lastly, players who don’t want to wait can activate Feature Buy. For 100x your bet, you can trigger the standard free spins round.
Or, for 500x, you can opt into Super Free Spins, where all expanding wilds start with a guaranteed minimum x10 multiplier.
While Eye of Spartacus may not reinvent the wheel, it fuses tried-and-true mechanics into a well-polished slot experience packed with tension, upgrades, and explosive win potential.
