Ancient Rome erupts across 243 ways to win
Landing 3, 4, or 5 gold coin scatter symbols anywhere on the reels triggers 10, 15, or 20 free spins respectively.
The erupting volcano symbol acts as a wild, substituting for other icons, but appears only on reels 2 and 4. During free spins, a winning combo with Vesuvius on reel 2 triples your prize, and landing it on both reels 2 and 4 can multiply wins up to x15.
With 5 reels and 3 rows generating 243 winning combinations, Pompeii offers frequent chances to land a payout on every spin.
Collecting all 5 shield symbols on a winning line can pay out up to x12,500, making it one of the richest regular symbols in the game.
The Auto Spin control lets you set a fixed number of turns to play automatically without manually starting each spin.
Choose a coin value between $0.02 and $1 to determine your per-line stake.
Adjust your total bet from a minimum of $0.50 up to a maximum of $125 per spin across the 243 paylines.
Hit spin and watch for the volcano wild and gold coin scatter symbols to form winning combinations.
Land 3, 4, or 5 scatters to unlock free spins, then use Auto Spin if you'd like the feature to play out automatically.
Set against the ancient Roman city before its destruction, Pompeii's free spins round kicks in when you land 3, 4, or 5 gold coin scatter symbols anywhere on the screen, awarding 10, 15, or 20 free spins respectively. What makes the round special is the Vesuvius volcano wild, which appears only on reels 2 and 4 during the base game but turns into a multiplier during free spins — a winning combination touching Vesuvius on reel 2 triples your prize, while combinations touching both reels 2 and 4 can multiply wins as high as x15, giving the bonus round real weight even though the base graphics and sound design are fairly understated.
Long before it became a cautionary tale of Mount Vesuvius burying an entire city in lava in 79 AD, Pompeii was a thriving part of the Roman Empire — and Aristocrat leaned into that history for one of its best-known slot titles. Spin the reels and you’re surrounded by carriages, warrior helmets, shields, and gold coins, with the smoking volcano looming in the background as the game’s signature wild symbol.
Structurally, Pompeii is a 5×3 video slot built on 243 ways to win, which keeps the win frequency high even if individual payouts vary. Coin values run from $0.02 to $1, letting you shape a total bet anywhere from $0.50 up to $125 per spin. The headline feature is the free spins round: land 3, 4, or 5 gold coin scatters for 10, 15, or 20 free spins, with the Vesuvius wild adding multipliers of up to x15 when it lines up across reels 2 and 4.
It won’t win awards for cutting-edge visuals, and the format can feel repetitive after extended sessions, but the mechanics are simple enough for newcomers while still offering the kind of payout ceiling — up to x12,500 for a full line of shields — that keeps bigger spenders interested. Pompeii runs instantly in any modern browser on desktop or mobile, so you can try the free-play version here before ever risking real money.
