Myth

Myth | Slot Game Review

Myth is a five-reel, three-row Ancient Greece-themed video slot from Play’n GO — the one Play’n GO title in this batch, distinct from the Real Time Gaming (RTG) games that make up the rest of the site’s current review queue. It plays across 20 paylines with a top-tier RTP of 96.88% and medium volatility, and its core symbol is a Spartan Warrior wild that pays 5,000 coins for five on a payline while also doubling the value of any other winning combination it completes. A Golden Urn scatter handles both a standalone payout — up to 200x the total stake for five — and the trigger for the game’s free-spins round.

Play’n GO built Myth in 2015 as part of its early wave of Ancient Greece-themed releases, using a simpler symbol set and flatter visual style than the studio’s later, more detailed mythology titles. Like most Play’n GO slots, the game is distributed with several RTP configurations — 96.88% is the highest-return version tracked by independent slot databases, with lower-return configurations also in circulation at some casinos, so the exact rate can vary by operator. The doubling wild paired with a tripling free-spins multiplier is a combination Play’n GO reused across several of its mid-2010s titles, rather than a mechanic unique to Myth.

The Spartan Warrior wild substitutes for every regular symbol and pays the game’s top fixed prize — 5,000 coins for five on an active payline — while also doubling the value of any other winning combination it’s part of, making it valuable both as a direct hit and as a booster. The Golden Urn scatter pays out on its own, up to 200x the total stake for five appearing anywhere, and landing three or more triggers the free-spins round: 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier applied to every win. If the Warrior wild lands during those free spins, its doubling effect stacks with the round’s multiplier for an effective 6x on that combination. Landing three or more Golden Urns again during the bonus retriggers an additional 15 free spins, so a strong scatter run can extend the round well beyond its base length. Play’n GO lists the official max win at 5,000x the total stake.

Pros

  • Warrior wild doubles wins on top of paying the game’s own top fixed prize
  • Free-spins multiplier (3x, or an effective 6x when the wild lands) rewards the wild appearing during the bonus
  • Retriggerable free spins let a strong scatter run extend well past the base 15 spins
  • 96.88% top-tier RTP is generous for a 2015-era slot
  • Simple 20-payline, 5×3 structure is easy to read for players new to Play’n GO

Cons

  • RTP varies by casino since Play’n GO distributes multiple return configurations of this title
  • Medium volatility means it won’t suit players chasing very high-variance swings
  • Flatter, simpler visuals compared to Play’n GO’s later Ancient Greece-themed releases
  • 5,000x max win, while solid, is below the ceiling of Play’n GO’s biggest modern titles
