Gladiators and Online Slots
$5,000 Welcome Bonus
Gladiator was a film made by Ridley Scott 20 years ago. It launched the career of Russell Crowe and rekindled the public's fascination with Ancient Rome's spectator sport. Gladiator spawned scores of gladiator-themed online slots, including two of the biggest jackpot progressive games currently in play at Casino.com: Gladiator Jackpot and Gladiator: Road to Rome.
Charlton Heston won 11 Oscars for his role in Ben Hur. Spartacus was released a year later. The swords and sandals genre was popular in the 1960s but faded away in 1970s.
Ben Hur is one of the oldest mechanical slot machines in the world. It was produced by the Caille Bros. in 1908.
There are at least ten different online slots at Casino.com taking their inspiration from the age of the Gladiators. The Age of Gods franchise and HBO's Rome have helped to revive the Roman gladiatorial culture.
Gladiator Jackpot and Gladiator: Road to Rome are two games from Playtech. They are both fun but basic games. There are 25 winlines to play for and five reels to spin.
Road to Rome is a progressive jackpot online slot with 25 winlines and a scabbard full of extra goodies. The slot features stills from the movie, including Joaquin Phoenix as the evil emperor Commodus and Oliver Reed as Antonius Proximo. Land the scatter symbol three times anywhere and you trigger the Coliseum Free Games. Three helmets activate the Gladiator Bonus where you have a chance to win the progressive Jackpot.
