RTP is not hit frequency
Two games can publish the same RTP while one pays smaller wins more often and the other saves more value for rare features.
Gates of Olympus RTP explained
96.50% is not tonight’s refund.
RTP is the share of all stakes a game pays back across an enormous number of random spins. Your own session can finish far above it, far below it or at zero. Use the number to compare versions—not to predict your next spin.
- Common default
- 96.50%
- Matching house edge
- 3.50%
- Session guarantee
- None
Put RTP into real numbers
See the long-run maths—without turning it into a forecast.
Change the stake and number of spins to see how much money passes through the game. The result below is statistical arithmetic across huge samples, not what your session should return.
Total wagered€40.00
Long-run return at 96.50%€38.60
Theoretical long-run gap€1.40
Your real balance can finish anywhere, including zero or above your starting amount. RTP only becomes useful as an average after a very large number of random rounds.

A casino may offer a lower RTP setting than the headline default. Open the information panel in the exact game and mode you plan to use—especially before a Bonus Buy.

Maximum is not a target
A 50,000× ceiling describes the end of the possible range. It says nothing about what a normal session should reach.
Volatility shapes the ride
High volatility means more of the game’s return can sit in less frequent outcomes, making long losing stretches possible.
