Gates of Hades
Gates of Hades Slot Overview – Spinmills Casino
Some slots offer you adventure. Gates of Hades drags you straight into the underworld, and it doesn’t ask politely. Developed by Pragmatic Play, this mythological powerhouse drops you into the domain of Hades himself — not just as a visitor, but as a challenger to his fiery throne. The visuals are bold, the gameplay is brutal in the best way, and there’s an ever-looming sense that any spin could erupt into chaos.
With a reel layout that trades paylines for cluster wins, the game thrives on explosions of symbols, chain reactions, and one key mechanic: Wild Multipliers — up to a staggering 500X. This isn’t a casual day trip to Mount Olympus; this is full-on infernal warfare.

Visuals & Atmosphere
The underworld isn’t exactly known for hospitality, but in this case, it’s stunning. Behind the reels, towering obsidian spires burn with ever-raging flame, and volcanic clouds swirl in the distance. Hades himself looms silently, watching your every move.
Sound design ties everything together — ambient growls, flickering fire, and the occasional orchestral stab when big wins hit. The mood? Intense, focused, unforgettable.
Symbols & Payouts
Here’s what to expect when you land clusters of 15 or more symbols:
Symbol Type | 15+ Symbol Payout |
Turquoise Gem | 5x |
Green Gem | 10x |
Gold Gem | 15x |
Purple Gem | 25x |
Red Gem | 45x |
Cup | 60x |
Ring | 100x |
Crown | 150x |
Wild Symbol | Substitutes + Multiplier up to 500x |
Scatter (Hades) | Triggers Free Spins |
The Wild Symbol not only replaces other symbols but can carry a multiplier between 1X and 500X, depending on the mode. Meanwhile, Scatters are your key to unlocking the true power of the game via Free Spins.
Gates of Hades Slot Features
Tumble Mechanic
Every cluster win triggers a tumble. Winning symbols vanish, new ones fall from above, and if new clusters are formed, the process repeats — potentially several times per spin.
Wild Symbol & Multiplier Collection
When a Wild lands, it’s not just for show. It comes with a random multiplier from a pre-defined set:
1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, 9X, 10X, 15X, 20X, 25X, 30X, 50X, 100X (base game), and up to 500X in Free Spins.
These multipliers are collected above the reels where they land and apply to any win that touches that reel. Once a spin ends, the multipliers reset — unless you’re in the bonus round.
Free Spins
Hit 3 or more Scatters, and you’re in. Here’s what you get:
- 3 Scatters = 10 Free Spins
- 4 Scatters = 12 Free Spins
- 5 Scatters = 15 Free Spins
- 6+ Scatters = 20 Super Free Spins
During Super Free Spins, the minimum multiplier on Wilds is 10X. Oh, and the Wild Multipliers? They don’t disappear between spins. They persist until the feature ends. That means reels can build up and hit explosively in the later rounds.
You can retrigger the bonus round by landing 3 or more additional Scatters:
- 3 Scatters = +5 Spins
- 4 Scatters = +7 Spins
- 5 Scatters = +10 Spins
- 6+ Scatters = +12 Spins
Feature Buy Options
Don’t want to wait for Scatters? Skip the queue with the Feature Buy:
- 100X Bet = Regular Free Spins (10 spins)
- 500X Bet = Super Free Spins (10 spins, multipliers start at 10X)
Both come with near-default RTPs, so it’s a fair shortcut if you’re ready for risk.
Final Thoughts – Gates of Hades at Spinmills Casino
There’s no denying it — Gates of Hades hits hard. It feels like a spiritual cousin to Gates of Olympus, but with a darker tone and a different flow. The cluster pays system is a smart departure from scatter pays, and the gameplay rewards both patience and bold play.
What sets this one apart is the persistent multiplier system in Free Spins. It adds strategy and suspense — should you go all in for a Super Free Spin buy or grind it out for natural buildup? Either way, the potential is real.
The visual polish, the sound, and the flow of wins all combine into a game that feels alive — intense but rewarding. If you’re after a mythological slot that isn’t afraid to turn up the heat, Gates of Hades is waiting behind the flames — exclusively at Spinmills Casino.
