The game’s symbols are icons of Greek mythology. The lower-value symbols are card royals. 10 pays 0.5x your bet for 5 on a payline, J pays 0.6x, Q pays 0.7x, K pays 0.8x, and A pays 1x.

Wild symbols can appear on reels 1, 2, 4, and 5 and will stand in for any symbols except Bonus and Scatter symbols to help you land wins.
Zeus Hyper Frames has 5 reels and 243 paylines. You win by landing 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels, from left to right. Your winning combos must start on the leftmost reel.
Zeus Hyper Frames gets creative with highlighted reel positions that add jackpots and multipliers to Free Spins and bonus rounds.
When you land 6 Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game, each triggering Bonus symbol will create a bronze frame on the position where it lands. If a Bonus symbol lands on an existing frame, it will upgrade it. Bronze upgrades to silver, and Silver upgrades to Gold. If a bonus symbol lands on a gold frame, a random position will be upgraded instead.
You will start with 6 Free Spins. Landing 5 or more Bonus symbols in one spin during the feature will give you an extra Free Spin. Once the feature ends, each framed position will reveal a cash prize or a jackpot. Bronze frames can award you 0.5x to 2x your bet, silver frames are worth 2x to 6x, and gold frames can pay 7x to 20x. The Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega jackpots are worth 10x, 25x, 200x, and 5,000x your bet, respectively.
Land 3 Scatter symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5 during the base game to trigger the Wheel of Fortune.
This feature can also randomly activate when 1 to 5 Bonus symbols land on the reels. The wheel has 8 segments: the 4 fixed jackpots and 4 Super Bonus prizes.
There are four types of Super Bonuses that you can activate via the Wheel of Fortune. Any Bonus symbol that lands during the Super Gold Bonus creates a gold frame immediately. The Super Spinz Bonus gives you 12 starting free spins instead of 6. During the Super Stackz Bonus, Bonus symbols may appear stacked and can land in full stacks across the reels. Trigger the Super Symbol Bonus for giant 2x2 and 3x3 Bonus symbols.
Whenever a jackpot is revealed from a gold frame during a Bonus or Super Bonus, the Lightning Multiplier can randomly boost the jackpot value by 2x, 3x, or 5x. This can apply to all jackpots, except the Mega Jackpot.
Zeus Hyper Frames’ maximum win per spin is worth 6,200× your bet.
Return to Player (RTP) is the theoretical percentage of bets a game is expected to return as prizes over the long term. Zeus Hyper Frames has an RTP of 96%, on par with the industry average. Its medium volatility offers a balanced mix of win size and frequency.
Zeus Hyper Frames presents a vivid Greek mythology theme, with a heavenly palace backdrop and Zeus towering next to the reels. The soundtrack shifts from calm to fast-paced when you trigger a bonus feature.

Zeus Hyper Frames creates memorable gameplay with innovative features and exciting bonuses, but the theme feels low-effort. This slot surprised me with its inventive frames mechanic that was fun to build up and unleash during Free Spins and the Super Bonuses. It created a truly refreshing experience, delivering multipliers, jackpots, and boosted prizes. Unfortunately the theme isn’t half as inventive. Musclebound Greek gods are a dime a dozen in online slots, so developers should start thinking about being a little more creative.
