Pragmatic Play · 2025
A top win of x10,000 the bet and high volatility define Gates of Hades, a cluster pays video slot. This page covers its figures, rounds and bonus modes.
A 6x6 grid puts this game in Ancient Greece, with fire as a second theme. It is a cluster pays slot, so wins do not come from lines. At least 5 connected symbols must touch horizontally or vertically to pay, and diagonal contact does not count. Winning symbols are removed, new ones fall into the gaps, and this tumble repeats until no cluster is left.
10 to 20 Free Spins start when three or more scatters land on the first tumble, and the wild range rises to 500x. In the base game a wild carries a random value from 1x to 100x and adds it to a WILD METER on its column. Six or more scatters also start Super Free Spins, where every wild multiplier is at least 10x.

Know each step
Read this before your first spin, and again when a bonus round starts.
Pick a bet between A$0.20 and A$240 before the first spin. The paytable uses A$0.50 as its example, so every win shown there scales with the bet you choose.
Five or more matching symbols that touch horizontally or vertically form a cluster and pay. Winning symbols vanish, new ones fall from above, and the grid is checked again.
Wilds carry a random multiplier from 1x to 100x and add it to the column wild meter. Clusters are multiplied by their columns' meter total, which resets after every spin.
Three to six or more Scatter symbols on the first tumble start 10, 12, 15 or 20 free spins. The wild meter then carries across the whole round.
Set a loss limit before any spin, and stop once it is reached, even partway through a bonus round.

Where multipliers grow
This block settles how each bonus starts, how many spins it gives and where its caps sit.
Three, four, five or six-plus Scatter symbols on the first tumble start 10, 12, 15 or 20 spins. Wild multipliers extend to 500x. The Wild Meter carries across the round. Retriggers add 5, 7, 10 or 12 spins. Maximum win is capped at 10000x the bet.
Base gameFree spins
Six or more Scatter symbols on the first tumble start 20 spins. Every Wild multiplier has a floor of 10x, so lower values count as 10x. Across the whole round, the Wild Meter compounds. The maximum win is capped at 10000x the bet.
Base gameSuper free spins
Five or more connected symbols form a win, linked horizontally or vertically. Winning symbols vanish, new ones fall in, and the tumble repeats. Wilds add a 1x to 100x multiplier to their column's Wild Meter. Cluster wins multiply by the meter on their columns, which resets after each spin.

3 SCATTER symbols on the first tumble start 10 Free Spins in Gates of Hades, but how often that happens is not known in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP version, so a long dry spell and a quick bonus are both possible.
3 RTP versions exist for Gates of Hades, and the version running here is shown only in the game rules. Read the game rules before the first spin, because the same title can return a different share of stakes depending on the version.
The x10,000 ceiling is the most a round can pay in Gates of Hades, and it is reached very rarely. Free Spins and Super Free Spins both stop at the same cap, so a bigger bet raises the money but not the multiple.
Four questions answered
At 777 Casino we put the figures first, so you can judge the game before spinning.
The bonus can be bought in two ways. Buy Free Spins costs A$100 at the A$1 bet used on this page, which is 100 times the stake. Buy Super Free Spins costs A$500 at the same bet, which is 500 times the stake.
Free spins start when Scatter symbols land on the first tumble. Three Scatters give 10 spins, four give 12, five give 15, and six or more give 20.
This slot has high volatility. Wins come less often but can be large, so a session can go a long time without a big win. No one can know in advance when a win or a bonus will come.
The game comes in three RTP versions, each a long-run average over many spins. The return is worked out on A$100 staked, so a single session can land far above or below it. The versions table below shows what each one returns in money.
