How Olympus Trueways works
The rest of the sheet: high volatility and a cap of 5.000 times the stake. The feature list is the longest this round with nineteen entries, the main ones being Multiway (+1024), Splitting Symbols, Avalanche and a free spins round with a multiplier. The Trueways name refers to a grid where the number of ways to win changes along the way.
01Trueways, Multiway and the 1024 ways
Multiway (+1024) means that the game does not use fixed paylines, but instead pays for matching symbols on adjacent reels regardless of vertical position. With a standard grid that gives 1024 ways, and the plus sign in the designation indicates that the number can rise above that when the grid expands.
This is exactly where the Trueways mechanic comes in. Symbols can split — Splitting Symbols is explicitly on the list — so one tile becomes two or three in the same position. Each time this happens, the number of win ways is multiplied, and a grid that starts with 1024 ways can end up with many times as many in the same spin.
It is an elegant construction because it ties the symbol work and the mathematics together. You can see why a win became large: there were more ways, not just a randomly assigned multiplier.
02Cascades, stacks and Gonzo mechanic
The feature list mentions Gonzo mechanic, which is the industry's informal name for avalanche mechanics with a rising multiplier: winning symbols vanish, new ones fall down, and for each step in the chain the multiplier increases. Avalanche and Cascading are also listed and describe the same principle.
Stack means that symbols can land in vertical blocks, which in a Multiway grid matters: a full column of the same symbol maximizes the number of ways it contributes. Combined with splitting tiles, it’s the most interesting part of the setup.
Wilds with multipliers, Random multiplier, Free Spins Multiplier and Multiplier are all on the sheet. Four multiplier entries are included, and as always a long spec sheet often means multiple names for related mechanics rather than four distinct systems.
03Why the cap is only 5.000 x
With such a high payout percentage and so many multiplier layers one would expect a higher cap than 5.000 x. The explanation likely lies in the budget being allocated differently: when the percentage is 96,84 % and the ceiling is kept low, a larger share of payouts must be delivered in the mid-range.
It actually makes the title more interesting for the ordinary player than for the jackpot hunter. You get a better price per spin, but without the prospect of a six-figure outcome. Fixed Jackpots on the list support that reading — fixed prize tiers deliberately cap the top.
It still says high volatility, so it's not a calm game. But it's a high-volatility game with an unusually good payout, and that's a combination I rarely see.
04Buy button, symbol splendor, and the complete package
Buy Feature is present, and the price is not disclosed. The usual caveat applies: purchased rounds often run with a different payout percentage than the base game, and when the base value here is unusually good, it's worth checking whether the purchase is equally good.
The theme list is the longest in the field — axe, coins, crown, gems, gold, helmet, lightning, shield, weapons, treasures — which points to a rich symbol set rather than the usual playing-card values in the low positions. It's not decisive for the math, but it makes the grid more readable when many paths are in play at once.
Play with operators licensed by the Gambling Authority, where the percentage must appear on the game's information screen. Set stake limits before you open the purchase menu, and use ROFUS or stopspillet.dk if you need to stop.
Screenshots from Olympus Trueways
Olympus Trueways is shown in the demo with a total stake of 1,00 FUN per spin and a balance around 1.000 FUN. The jackpot panel sits fixed at the top of the temple: MINI 20,00, MAJOR 100,00 and MEGA JACKPOT 1.000,00.
The coin symbols appeared in the base game with read values of 1,00, 3,00, 10,00, 12,00 and 15,00 FUN. The largest single payout on screen was 6,28 FUN on a 1,00 FUN stake, and the cascade ended at 6,80 FUN in total winnings.
The Buy Bonus menu priced both purchases the same at a 1,00 FUN stake: FREE SPINS 100,00 FUN and COIN RESPIN 100,00 FUN. The payout table listed the Scatter as 2,00 FUN for three, 5,00 for four, 10,00 for five and 20,00 FUN for six; the axe pays 0,30 to 2,00 FUN and the Medusa coin 0,20 to 1,00 FUN. Wild carries a multiplier of x2, x3 or x5 during free spins.

Game rules
Base game
The game is played on the provider's default setup with 262144 ways to win. The published return is 96,84 %, and volatility is listed as high.
Round extension
If more scatters land during the free spins round, it is extended with extra spins. That's the mechanic that makes long rounds possible.
Avalanche mechanic
The reels clear winning symbols and let new ones fall down from above. One paid combination can thus turn into a longer sequence.
Bonus games
In addition to the main round there is a separate bonus game with its own rules. Access is triggered via bonus symbols in the base game.
Bonus symbols
Special bonus symbols count toward triggering the game's extra rounds and do not necessarily pay out themselves.
Bonus buy
The bonus round can be bought directly for a fixed amount of the stake instead of waiting for scatters. The price is shown in the game's buy window — and some operators turn the feature off.
Cascades
Symbols in a win are removed, and new ones fall down instead. The chain continues as long as new wins are formed by the fallen symbols.
