Gates of Olympus vs Gates of Olympus 1000
Same tumble DNA. Louder ceiling talk on 1000. The useful comparison is pace and stake sizing — not which trailer shouted a bigger max win.
Shared loop
Pay-anywhere clusters, tumbles, scatters into free spins, multiplier orbs. If you only learn one title, learn classic first (13 February 2021).
What 1000 changes
Printed multiplier caps and max-win marketing step up. Dry stretches do not become kinder just because the trailer shows four-digit orbs. Shrink the stake unit when you move up the ceiling ladder.
RTP notes
Public materials for classic builds often cite around 96.50% RTP with a 5,000x-style max — confirm on the help file of the build you loaded. Some operator configurations ship alternate RTP profiles. Demo on this hub is for rules feel; it is not a certificate of the cashier version you will meet later.
Ignore pages that invent a single “95.5 demo RTP” as if every iframe were identical.

FAQ
Is 1000 “better”?
Louder ceiling. Not automatically better for your bankroll.
Same ante idea?
Where offered, ante still raises spin cost for feature-path changes — read that title’s help.
