Sword of Ares: break symbols, unlock the meter

Sword of Ares counts what you break. Every winning symbol and every symbol blown away by a BOMB goes into a meter above the reels, and enough of them unlock a multiplier for the whole tumble chain. A warrior in gold armour with a red cloak, shield and sword stands guard beside the board. At BolehSpin it opens from the Pragmatic Play lobby in your phone browser, on your one BolehSpin account, with no app and no separate game ID.

Pay anywhere and tumble

Symbols pay anywhere on the screen: the total count of one symbol at the end of a spin sets the win, in groups of 8-9, 10-11 and 12-30. Winning symbols vanish, the rest fall and new ones drop in from above. The page says there is no limit to the number of tumbles, and all wins from one base spin are added once the chain ends. The rules pages do not print the number of reels and rows.

The multiplier meter

Above the reels sits a meter with locked multipliers: 3 in the base game, 6 in free spins. Across a spin and all its tumbles, the game counts winning symbols and exploded symbols. When the count passes a threshold, the next multiplier unlocks with a random value. At the end of all tumbles, the total win of the chain is multiplied by the highest unlocked multiplier.

In the base game the first unlocks after 20 symbols (2x to 4x), the second after 50 (5x to 8x) and the third after 100 (9x to 15x). The full free spins ladder is in the table below.

BOMB symbols

Four round golden emblems are the BOMB symbols. They can land in both the base game and free spins and stay on the screen, tumbling down with the rest, until no more wins are possible. Then they explode and clear symbols in a horizontal, vertical, cross or X pattern. Cleared symbols feed the meter, new ones fall, and if they form a win the chain goes on. In the base game a BOMB explodes only if at least one tumble has already happened in that spin. The Scatter is never removed by a BOMB or a tumble.

Free spins

The Scatter is a portrait of the long-haired, bearded warrior. It lands on all reels and pays in any position: 4 for RM6.00, 5 for RM30.00 and 6 for RM200.00 at a RM2.00 bet. Four or more start 15 free spins with special reels and the six-step meter, which goes up to a 6th multiplier of 150x, 200x, 300x or 500x after 225 symbols. The round cannot be retriggered.

The buy option and sensible play

The page lists BUY FREE SPINS at 100x current total bet, with 4, 5 or 6 Scatters landing at random on the triggering spin. We describe it; we do not suggest it. A round that reaches 10,000x bet ends there. Amounts in the table are for RM2.00 total bet and move with your stake, so pick a budget, keep bets small and walk away when it is spent.

Sword of Ares paytable

RM amounts the rules page shows at a total bet of RM2.00 for 12-30, 10-11 or 8-9 of a symbol anywhere on the screen; they change with your bet.
