Set in a stormy underwater environment, the title is played on a 5x6 reel set using a scatter pays mechanic. It delivers high-variance gameplay with a top prize of 5,000 times the bet.

When you launch the game, you’ll be transported deep underwater, where Poseidon presides over the gleaming reel set. On the immediate left, there is a locked multiplier reel, and directly below are your game controls.
Click the plus or minus buttons to reveal the wagering pop-up and select your desired bet size from the options presented. Then, hit spin to play.
The reels contain low-paying 10-ace royals and high-value thematic symbols, including artefacts from Poseidon’s palace, a dolphin, and the top-paying sea god himself, offering a 50x payout for matching 12 or more on a single spin.
In addition, three bonus symbols are present: the golden gate wild symbol, a scatter showing Poseidon’s underwater palace, and a trident bonus symbol. Each triggers special features to help boost your win potential.
The scatter pays mechanic means that, rather than hitting paylines, you simply need eight or more matching pay symbols to land anywhere scattered in view on a spin. The paytable below shows the payouts you can expect when playing with a £1.00 per spin wager.
Symbol | Match 8-9 | Match 10-11 | Match 12-30 |
10 | 0.25 | 0.75 | 2.00 |
Jack | 0.40 | 0.90 | 4.00 |
Queen | 0.50 | 1.00 | 5.00 |
King | 0.80 | 1.20 | 8.00 |
Ace | 1.00 | 1.50 | 10.00 |
Urn | 1.50 | 2.00 | 12.00 |
Column | 2.00 | 5.00 | 15.00 |
Dolphin | 2.50 | 10.00 | 25.00 |
Poseidon | 10.00 | 25.00 | 50.00 |
Waves of Poseidon is awash with bonus features from tumbling reels to a Super Free Spins bonus with sticky multipliers.
Golden gate wild symbols can appear on any reel in the base game and free spins bonus. Wilds can substitute for all regular pay symbols to help you create winning combos and earn payouts.
The tumbling reels engine is active on every spin of the reels. Whenever you hit a winning combo, all symbols involved in the win will explode from the screen as remaining symbols drop to the bottom of the grid.
A tumble of new symbols will then fall from above to fill the vacated spaces. If new winning combos are created, those symbols are also removed from the grid, and the process repeats.
The multiplier reel is to the immediate left of the standard reels, locked behind a bronze gate during base game spins. There are multiplier values going up in value on the reel as follows: 1x, 2x, 2x, 2x, 3x, 3x, 5x, 5x, 7x, 7x, 10x, 10x, 20x.
A bubble sits at the bottom of the multiplier reel, rising up one position with each tumble in the sequence until it reaches the top, where it remains until the end of the spin.
Trident bonus symbols can appear on all reel positions in the base game and free spins bonus, and carry multiplier values varying between 2x and 50x. When a bonus symbol lands, it unlocks the multiplier reel, and the values are multiplied by the bonus symbol multiplier.
At the end of the tumble sequence on a winning spin, the active multiplier highlighted by the bubble is applied to your total win. The reel is then reset and reclocked.
The free spins bonus is triggered by hitting four or more scatter symbols in the base game, awarding free spins as indicated below:
During the feature, any subsequent scatters landed will award extra free spins. The multiplier reel is always unlocked in the bonus game, and all bonus symbols landed are guaranteed to have a multiplier between 2x and 50x.
Six triggering scatters will award the Super Free Spins Bonus, where values on the multiplier reel do not reset between spins, awarding boosted payouts on any winning spins.
The ante bet is played at 2x the base bet value. When activated, it locks the multiplier reel in place, multiplying each winning spin payout by the value highlighted in the bubble.
