Triple Pot Plinko – Hercules at Maxispin Casino — the complete guide
Pragmatic Play's 5x3 reel game where a Plinko bonus round lets you collect multiplied wins. Standard RTP 96.55%, low volatility.
Ancient Greece meets the Plinko bonus round
Wins flow both directions across the grid. You spin a five-reel, three-row grid set in ancient Greece, where Temple, Lion, Bull, Golden Cup, and Grapes symbols land across 243 ways to win. The game reads wins left-to-right and right-to-left on adjacent reels, so your stake can connect symbols in either direction. Low volatility means small wins arrive often, though big wins stay rare. The main draw is the Plinko Bonus Feature, where a pyramid board with buckets replaces your reels when the bonus round starts.
Low volatility rewards patience over chase. This slot suits you if you prefer steady smaller wins over long dry spells, and if you want the chance to enter a bonus round where the action shifts entirely to a ball-drop board. Starting bets at NZ$0.10 per spin work for casual play, while the NZ$0.40 example lets you see the paytable in motion. If you chase massive single wins or play only for base-game spins, you might find the Plinko Feature dominates the experience more than suits your taste.
The pyramid board replaces your reels in bonus. When you land enough Scatter symbols in the base game, the Plinko Bonus Feature activates and the reels vanish. You then watch a ball drop through an eight-row pyramid of pegs into nine buckets, each marked with a payout multiplier or blank. The bonus round awards ten balls per modifier you collect—extra balls, multiplier balls that tag your drop for 2x to 100x wins, and prize boosts that upgrade bucket values. The round ends instantly if your total reaches the 10,000x cap on your stake.

From scatter to 9 buckets. The pyramid drops balls down an 8-row peg field into 9 buckets, each holding a multiplier from 30x to blank. You start with 10 balls per active modifier, and can boost them through Extra Balls, Multiplier Balls, or Prize Boost. The round ends if your win hits the 10,000x cap.
Reels swap for the pyramid. Toggle this mode and your reels transform entirely: the 5x3 grid becomes the same 8-row pyramid board. One ball drops per spin at a 100x bet multiplier instead of the standard 10x. Ball multipliers climb higher here, reaching 100x. Buy Bonus stays unavailable while this mode runs.
From spin to spin without the bonus. Spin the 5 reels across 3 rows and match symbols on 243 ways to win. Wins pay left-to-right and right-to-left on adjacent reels, with the lowest three matching symbols needed to trigger payouts. Your stake grows from NZ$0.10 to NZ$1,000 per spin.

What can't you know before you play?
When the pyramid arrives. The bonus board appears when scatters align, but you cannot predict when that happens. No player can count on triggering it within any timeframe.
Session outcomes vary. One session's result depends on chance alone. The RTP shows what happens across millions of spins; your session may far exceed it, fall short of it, or end quickly.
The maximum is the exception. The maximum win of NZ$10,000,000 is a ceiling set by the game rules, reached in extremely rare circumstances. Most sessions end without approaching it.

Plan your budget before the reels turn
Budget before the session starts. Decide how much you can afford to lose before your first spin and stick to that amount. Your budget should only come from money you do not need for essentials.
Wins and losses: both reasons to pause. Choose when you will stop playing before you begin, whether you win or lose. A big win is not a signal to keep going; it is a signal to walk away.
Your account's safety tools. Use your Maxispin account settings to set a deposit limit and a loss limit. These tools enforce boundaries that even your own impulse cannot override.
Is it time to step back? If the game stops feeling fun or you sense that play is no longer your choice, take a cooling-off period or use self-exclusion. The Gambling Helpline New Zealand is free and confidential.
