Slot Summary

A griffin guarding a floating throne gives Griffin's Throne its Fantasy and Mythology subject, but IGT makes the creature mechanically relevant by locking Griffin and Wild Symbols when a Sun activates the Multiplier feature. One reel then becomes a tall Golden Pillar for a respin, carrying Wild Symbols and Random Multipliers. Free Spins enlarge the same idea across the entire reel set, so the bonus changes the playing area rather than merely adding spins.
MechanicsSun Symbols trigger tall multiplier reels and respins

How It Plays

The base game runs on a 5x4 layout with 30 paylines. A Sun Symbol interrupts the ordinary line evaluation by transforming its reel and initiating a respin.

Griffin and Wild Symbols remain fixed while the Golden Pillar and unlocked positions spin again. Line wins are checked before and after that respin, creating two evaluation points.

Theme & Atmosphere

Fantasy architecture and a throne guarded by a griffin establish the Medieval and Mythology direction. The creature functions as both the central figure and a locked premium symbol.

Greece supplies part of the visual vocabulary, while the elevated palace treatment pushes the setting toward legend rather than a literal reconstruction of a historical place.

Features & Win Potential

The Reelset Changing feature turns each Sun-bearing reel into a tall pillar containing Wild Symbols and Random Multiplier symbols. Multiple multiplier values in one line are added together.

Sticky Wilds and Griffin symbols hold their positions for the respin, after which Random Wilds may fill eligible spaces. This concentrates the feature around a single altered result.

Bonus & Free Spins

Three or more Scatter Symbols award 10 Free Spins. The round uses a changed reel set with 90 paylines and reels extending to 12 symbol positions.

The Multiplier feature remains available during Free Spins, and 2 or more Scatter Symbols can award Additional Free Spins while the expanded reel set remains active.

Bankroll survival simulator

How long could a bankroll last on Griffin's Throne? We simulate thousands of sessions from this game's published RTP and volatility — the long-run math, not a prediction of your next spin.

Volatility tier: Medium

Running simulation…
How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.05%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (11,111×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
