Hercules Son of Zeus is the online slot from Pragmatic Play. Hercules was sired by Zeus, the king of gods, from a mortal woman. You can play this slot machine at popular online casinos like InterCasino. Hercules wearing the hide of a lion is the main symbol. Slaying the Nemean Lion was the first labour of Hercules, after which he donned the hide on a regular basis. This symbol not only awards the highest line payouts but it appears stacked on the reels. The other high paying symbols represent the other labours of Hercules in the form of colourful statues. These include slaying the three-headed dog Cerberus, Cretan Bull, Erymanthian Boar, Golden Hind of Artemis and Stymphalian Bird. The Greek temple is the wild symbol. Zeus is the scatter symbol. When you land the Zeus coins on reels 2, 3 and 4 in the same spin you will be awarded 6 free spins and a payout of 2x the total bet. Sticky wilds are added to the reels in each free spin. Each scatter symbol landing on the reels awards one more free spin.

Prince of Olympus is from the Playtech Age of the Gods series and can be played at online casinos like Omni Casino and Casino Tropez. Because Hercules was Zeus’ son he gets a permanent place on Olympus as the prince. Hercules wearing the hide of the Nemean Lion is the wild symbol. The other high paying symbols are Cerberus and the three golden apples that are also associated with one of his labours. The broad belt and huge club, trademark accessories of Hercules, are also symbols. The Herculean Strength feature is triggered when the wild symbol appears on the centre of reel 3. The symbol first expands and then awards two re-spins with the central reel locked. The Hydra Bonus feature is triggered by the hydra symbol. Slaying the nine-headed hydra was another one of his labours. Hercules fights the hydra on the second screen and you are awarded bonus credits and multipliers. The Hercules logo awards scatter payouts and triggers 10 free spins in which all payouts are multiplied three times. Prince of Olympus is linked to the Age of the Gods progressive jackpot.
