Le Zeus Slot (Hacksaw Gaming)

The Le Zeus slot is played on 6 reels, 5 rows and 19 fixed paylines. Winning combinations are created when 3, 4, 5 or 6 identical symbols appear from left to right, beginning from the leftmost reel, across any of the 19 paylines. As with most slot games, only the highest win per payline will be awarded.

With a 10p minimum bet, the most you can play at per spin is £5 in the UK (or £2 if you’re under 25). To change your bet, use the up and down arrows. Players outside the UK can make use of Autoplay (up to 1,000 auto spins) and Turbo/Super Turbo modes.

Returns-wise, the Le Zeus RTP rate is 96.26%. Higher than the 96% average for an online slot game, Hacksaw has produced 94.18% and 92.37% RTP versions. To check which rate you’re playing with, open the Paytable at your chosen slots site.

Medium volatility (3/5), the hit frequency rate is 36.69%: this meaning that a winning combination (3-6 matching symbols across a payline) will land every 2.72 spins on average. In terms of win potential, the Le Zeus slot game benefits from 20,000 x bet max wins: unfortunately, there is no max probability figures.

The Le Zeus slot is the fifth game in the ‘Le’ series following Le Bandit (August 2023), Le Pharaoh (September 2024), Le Viking (January 2025) and Le King (June 2025).

With a Greek mythology theme, Smokey the Raccoon is back but disguised as Zeus: he’s armed with lightning and wearing a toga! Set up Mount Olympus where the 12 gods are gathered, you are guaranteed mischief, mayhem and magnificent moustaches await in this action-packed, high-energy game.

With the same comedic charm as its predecessors, the low-value symbols are represented by Greek letters. Then you have pipes, pillars, swords, masks, Pegasus’ wings and helmets: the helmet symbol pays the most with 100 x your total bet if you land 6 in combination across any payline.

Le Zeus also has several special symbols: there is a standard Wild that substitutes for all paying symbols above. Other symbols include a lightning Mystery which can lead to Mystery Reels: these then reveal Coin, Diamond, Clover or Pots of Gold symbols. The other symbol of importance is the FS Scatter: these trigger the free spins features. More details on the special symbols can be found below.

Le Zeus Mobile

With HTML5 technology used for all Hacksaw Gaming slots, Le Zeus can be enjoyed on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. Like playing on the go? It’s compatible with iOS and Android smartphones, even up Mount Olympus.

The Le Zeus slot focuses on Mystery symbols which leads to high-value symbols, wilds or Mystery Reels. With respins on offer, Mystery Reels reveal Coins, Diamonds, Clovers and Pots of Gold for even more wins. There are 3 free spins features which benefit from sticky Mystery symbols, a Mystery Meter than leads to reward spins and Mystery symbols on 4 reels for each free spin.

Mystery Reveal

Look out lightning Mystery symbols appearing vertically on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5: they will reveal high-value symbols, Wilds or award Mystery Reels. When you get a winning combination with the revealed symbols, you’ll activate sticky respins which continue until no new wins are formed or a Mystery Reel appears.

Mystery Reels will, in turn, reveal Coins, Diamonds, Clovers or Pots of Gold. Below is what they offer:

• Coins: will be Bronze, Silver or Gold and are worth between 0.2 and 100 x your total bet
• Diamonds: will contain 150, 250 or 500 x bet prizes
• Clovers: Green Clover symbols multiply all Coins or Pots of Gold symbols on adjacent positions with a multiplier up to 20x. Gold Clover symbols multiply all Coins or Pots of Gold symbols with a multiplier up to 20x.
• Pots of Gold: they collect the values of all Coins, Diamonds and other Pots of Gold symbols on the grid and store their total value.

When all values from Coins, Diamonds and Pots of Gold symbols have been collected, all other symbols in the Mystery Reel, except the Pot of Gold, will spin and activate again to reveal new symbols.

Bolt & Run 

Landing 3 FS Scatters during a base game spin will activate the Bolt & Run feature with 8 free spins. It works like the base game with all Mystery symbols being sticky throughout the feature. Coins are worth at least 1 x your total bet.

Myth-Taken Identity

The Myth-Taken Identity feature is triggered by landing 4 FS Scatters during a bse game spin. With 8 free spins awarded, you’ll benefit from all base game extras. Additionally, you’ll see a Mystery Meter to the side of the reels. When a Mystery symbol lands, the meter fills by 1 step.

Collecting 25 Mystery symbols will trigger reward spins with a full grid of Mystery symbols where the minimum Coin type increases with every reward spin. On the 1^st reward spin, all Coin types will be bronze at least. On the 2^nd for example, you’ll see silver Coins at a minimum.

Gods Just Wanna Have Fun

Finally, landing 5 FS Scatters during the base game will activate the Gods Just Wanna Have Fun feature with 8 free spins. It uses the same extras as the Bolt & Run feature.

However, reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 are filled with Mystery symbols: no low-value symbols will land during the feature and the minimum Coin value will be 5 x your total bet.

Le Zeus Slot

Rating: 4.2/5

Le Zeus is the 5th game in the ‘Le’ series with Hacksaw Gaming freshening things up to keep Smokey the Raccoon alive on his latest adventure. It also offers 20,000 x bet max wins.

Chris Taylor

The Le Zeus slot is the fifth game in the ‘Le’ series. Hacksaw Gaming sees Smokey the Raccoon as Zeus in this installment: it’s quirky, fun and stays true to its predecessors.

In the base game, look out for Mystery symbols as these reveal high-value symbols, wilds or Mystery Reels. If high-value symbols or wilds are part of a winning combination, you’ll get a respin with Mystery symbols which can lead to even bigger wins. The key are Mystery Reels which reveal Coins, Diamonds or Pots of Gold symbols which can lead bet multiplier prizes up to 500 x bet and Coin value collections. Then you have Clovers which multiply Coins or Pots of Gold symbols with a multiplier up to 20x.

Hacksaw Gaming has then bolted on 3 free spins features: the Bolt & Run feature works like the base game but with sticky Mystery symbols. The Myth-Taken Identity feature introduces a Mystery Meter which, when filled, gives you reward spins with Mystery Reels. With each reveal spin, the potential rewards are higher. Finally, there is a Gods Just Wanna Have Fun feature where reels 2-5 contain Mystery symbols. Also, no low-value symbols appear and Coins are worth more than in the other 2 features.

The core mechanics found in the Le Zeus slot are similar to that in the other ‘Le’ series games but Hacksaw Gaming has made some tweaks to give the game it’s own identity. With no retriggers available in any of the free spins features, I found the Myth-Taken Identity feature the most appealing. Landing 25 Mystery symbols more than once will be hard with just 8 free spins but the rewards could be substantial.

With 20,000 x bet max wins, Le Zeus is another exciting adventure for Smokey the Raccoon and could easily become the most popular of the series. Only time will tell.

If you’re a fan of Hacksaw games, I recommend playing Miami Mayhem, Donut Division and Hand of Anubis a go to experience a range of their most popular titles.
