Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has officially expanded its popular Mythology Series with the launch of Gladiator Rising, a high-octane slot that invites players to step into the coliseum for a fight to the death.
Set against the imposing walls of a Roman amphitheatre, the game plays out on a 5×4 reel frame, thrusting players into a furious atmosphere backed by a cinematic soundtrack. The title challenges players to survive a series of brutal contests to find their fortune, with gameplay centered around progressing through four distinct “battles” represented by unique in-game features.
Battle Through Four Stages for Ultimate Glory
To conquer the empire, players must navigate four unique modes: The Warrior, The Giant, The Beast, and The Emperor. Progress is achieved by landing three or more Free Spins symbols, which moves the player to the next stage of the fight.
- The Warrior (Winning Symbols Respin): In the opening bout, winning combinations trigger a respin where winning symbols lock in place while non-winning ones are replaced, continuing until no new wins are formed.
- The Giant (Extra Wilds): This stage ramps up the volatility by adding 3 to 5 Extra Wilds to the reels while they spin. Landing five Wilds on a winning line rewards a massive x300 payout.
- The Beast (Shifting Reels & Respin): In the penultimate battle, a win triggers a free respin where all reels shift down one row, revealing a fresh row of symbols at the top for new potential wins.
- The Emperor (Stacked Wilds): The final showdown features Stacked Wilds. When a Stacked Wild appears fully on a reel, it triggers a respin, offering the game’s highest potential for glory.
Immersive Gameplay and Leadership Commentary
The game is designed to be more than just a slot; it is a narrative journey through the ranks of the arena.
Spinomenal CO-CEO Omer Henya highlighted the immersive nature of the title, stating that “Gladiator Rising instantly transports players to the heart of the Roman Empire for an epic clash that will keep them on the edge of their seats.”
Henya added that the progression mechanic is central to the excitement: “Each feature presents a distinct challenge, all building toward the final showdown with the ruthless Emperor – and a chance to rule it all.”
Since its founding in 2014, Spinomenal has curated a portfolio of over 300 HTML5 games known for their “Universe Concept,” which interconnects narratives across different titles to boost player retention.
