A beautiful goddess of war and wisdom, you’ll need a little bit of both to conquer this Rise of Athena slot machine.
Enter this temple in the sky as you spin 5 reels and 3 rows with just 10 paylines full of ancient Greek artefacts and Ace to 10 symbols.
There’s true beauty here, not unlike the Shield of Athena slot review, but instead of a dark and gloomy setting, this Rise of Athena mobile slot game is light and breezy, much like the riches within.
Don’t worry, the only real war you’ll have with this casino game is when you might catch the free spins, and the only wisdom you’ll need is to know when you’ve gotten a big enough win to walk away.
Every spin gives you multipliers because every wild coin will come with a multiplier ranging from 1x to 2x to 3x. These do multiply each other, meaning the maximum multiplier you can find on one of the 10 paylines is x27.
And that’s in the base game or in the free spins, which adds an element of excitement to every spin and gives this medium variance machine plenty of wins in the base game so you don’t feel like you are throwing money into a void.
If you do trigger the Rise of Athena free spins by finding 3 scatter owls on the reels, things get a little more interesting however. Mostly because those multiplying wilds stay sticky on screen.
Not for very long – a 3x wild will stay sticky on screen for 3 spins, with the multiplier decreasing on each spin, whilst a 1x wild will only stay sticky on 1 spin.
You get the top win of this Rise of Athena slot game by catching as many sticky wilds as you can in the bonus games of course.
However, with a medium variance, you’ll see lots of wilds with the 1x on your screen. Still, the decent paytable will give you a nice payout after the bonus – we rarely walked away with less than 50x our bet.
Does it have the same high energy as the Divine Showdown slot? No. But it has the same top win and is less dangerous on your wallet.
This temperate goddess allows you to play on a temperate game, and there are days when you don’t want to risk it all to win all, you just want to play cautiously and still hope for big wins. On those days, open up the Rise of Athena online slot.

Wild: This symbol substitutes for all symbols except Scatter, and appears only on reels 2, 3, and 4. Each Wild will have either a x1, x2 or x3 multiplier. These multiply each other giving you a maximum multiplier of x27 in this Rise of Athena slot.
Scatters and Free Spins: 3 or more Owl Scatter symbols trigger 12 Free Spins. Wild symbols remain sticky for the number of multipliers shown. So a 3x multiplier will stay sticky for 3 spins, and on each spin, the multiplier will go down by 1. Once no multiplier remains, the wild symbol is removed.
The Temple of Athena is a moderate and peaceful place, which is both a good and a bad thing.
Rise of Athena is a medium variance slot, meaning there's a nice flow to the game thanks to multipliers in the free spins and the base game.
Do we wish we could have triggered the free spins a little more often? Maybe made the sticky wilds sticky for the whole bonus game? Probably.
But then we wouldn't get those great multipliers in the base game. Just don't expect to hit that 5,000x your bet max win, and be satisfied if you hit anywhere close to the 1,000x your bet mark.
Seems like this software is on a streak as even just quick released end up as good Play'n Go slot reviews that are well worth playing.
