Time to head to the Colosseum and fight for glory in this Wild Gladiators slot by Pragmatic Play studios.
There is something about ancient Roman times that brings out our fighting spirit. From Spartacus to Gladiator, you know what you’ll find here. A glorious fighter, the tiger ready to pounce, and the Ceasar who doesn’t realise his lovely bride is holding a knife.
It’s not an imaginative theme, nor is it a particularly well crafted one. The Champions of Rome slot by Yggdrasil looked more authentic. But it’s ok and decent enough for a slot theme.
The real star is the 6th reel sitting by the side of the game with multipliers ranging from 1x to 10x – sounds familiar? That’s because this is the exact same game as the Hot Safari slot also by Pragmatic.
Any win can have anything from 1x to 10x on your win. To be honest, you’ll need at least a 4x multiplier or more to get anything decent, but the chance is there on every win, and it certainly brings a little thrill that has nothing to do with fighting tigers.
That said, this can still feel like you are fighting wild animals in an arena as it’s a medium to high variance game, so don’t expect the wins to come fast and easy.
That said, the wild symbol helps. He is the gladiator and expands to cover the whole of the centre reels, or if you hit the super wild feature, you get wilds on every single of the 5 reels.
We mentioned the wilds are the lynchpin to this Wild Gladiators slot review, and it’s even truer during the bonus games.
At this point the wild will expand on every reel and hitting 5 reels full of wilds will win you 4,000 times your bet. Not a bad amount right?
And while the chances of getting that isn’t huge, there is a chance. Mostly thanks to the super wild feature, which can trigger in the free spins and give you wilds on every reel, remember?
All in all, we had a good time playing on this Wild Gladiators slot online and would happily recommend it.
If you like Ancient Roman games, you’ll also love the Rome Rise of an Empire slot review.

Wilds: The gladiator is the wild symbol and replaces all other symbols on the reels. If it lands on reel 3 it will expand to cover the whole reel.
6th Multiplier Reel: There is a 6th reel that spins for every single spin of the game and multiplier ranging from 1x to 10x.
If you do get a win, that multiplier multiplies the win by that amount.
Super Wild Bonus: In the 6th multiplier reel, you can also land a symbol that says "super wild bonus". At this point, a wild symbol will land on every single reel, and the multiplier reel spins again to maybe give you a multiplier.
Scatters and Free Spins: 3 colosseum scatters anywhere on screen triggers 10 free spins. You can re-trigger this Wild Gladiators bonus games indefinitely. During the free spins the wild expands on all reels.
There is something special about playing on this Wild Gladiators slot on mobile. That special thing is the 6th reel which gives you a huge multiplier on every spin, including the free spins.
But it's the wild that is the star of the show, expanding on the centre reel, or on all reels during the bonus games.
The theme is nothing to shout about, and honestly, we say that a lot about Pragmatic Play games. Which is a shame as we really like the game mechanics.
Still, if you come across this fighter it may be worth getting in the ring for a couple of spins.
The Wild Gladiators is a 5x3 reel slot machine with 25 paylines, scatters, free spins, expanding wilds and an extra 6th reels with multipliers on every spin.
