Core mechanics at a glance
Gates uses a 6×5 grid with scatter pays: land eight or more matching symbols anywhere to win. Winning symbols tumble away; new ones drop until the chain ends. Zeus can randomly throw multiplier orbs (2×–500×) onto the grid during any spin — base or bonus. When a tumble wins, active orb values add together and multiply that step's win.
Four or more scatter temple symbols trigger 15 free spins. During free spins, multiplier orbs that land stick — their values accumulate in a global total applied to every subsequent winning tumble. Retriggers add five spins when three or more scatters hit. This persistent accumulator defines Gates identity versus one-shot bomb multipliers on Sweet Bonanza.
