How Wisdom of Athena rules and features work

Bonus features

Four or more Athena Scatters award 10 Free Spins. Unlocked top-row positions and landed multiplier values persist through the feature, and three or more Scatters add five spins. Multiplier symbols from 2× to 500× feed a running Free Spins total. Where enabled, Ante Bet raises stake by 25% and Buy Free Spins costs 100× the selected total bet. Reaching 5,000× ends the round immediately.

How to play Wisdom of Athena responsibly

Set a money limit and a time limit before spinning. Count every feature cost against that budget immediately and do not raise stakes after a quiet stretch.

  1. Budget feature costs

    Price each optional purchase or ante as a multiple of the total bet before confirming.

  2. Read one paid spin

    Cascades or respins belong to the same stake.

  3. Check the RTP panel

    Confirm the active build before treating the catalogue figure as settled.
