About Gates Hub
Gates Hub is a small, deliberately narrow review site covering one thing properly: the Gates of Olympus slot family by Pragmatic Play. This page explains who we are, how we source what we publish, and exactly how the site makes money — in plain terms, not buried in legal boilerplate.
What Gates Hub Is
Gates Hub is an editorial slot-review publisher covering the original Gates of Olympus, Gates of Olympus 1000, and Gates of Olympus Super Scatter — three related slots by Pragmatic Play. We are not a casino, we don't hold a gambling operator's licence, and we don't process deposits, wagers or withdrawals of any kind. Every "Play Now" button on this site sends you to a separate, licensed third-party operator where the actual game is played.
Why Only Three Games
Most review sites in this space spread a paragraph of generic copy across hundreds of unrelated titles. We do the opposite deliberately: three games, reviewed with a real specs table, sourced RTP data, and an honest sibling-to-sibling comparison, rather than shallow coverage of an entire studio's catalogue. If that scope expands in future, it will follow the same depth-first standard rather than becoming a thin, padded catalogue.
How We Source Our Facts
RTP, volatility, max win, release dates and feature mechanics are sourced from Pragmatic Play's own published game information, cross-checked against independent slot-database and review listings before we publish. Where sources genuinely disagree — which does happen, since Pragmatic Play licenses multiple RTP configurations per game — we say so explicitly in the specs table rather than picking whichever figure looks best. We do not run our own statistical RTP testing; that requires certified laboratory access that independent testing houses already provide as part of a game's licensing, and duplicating it ourselves would add no real value.
Our Relationship to Pragmatic Play
None. Gates Hub is not owned by, operated by, or formally affiliated with Pragmatic Play in any way. We are an independent publisher writing about their games using publicly available information, in the same way any specialist review site covers a product line it doesn't manufacture. We do not use "official" language to describe this site, because it would be inaccurate.
Editorial Independence
Gates Hub is an independent review portal. Our game reviews, RTP calculations, and feature breakdowns are written independently of any casino operator or game studio to ensure objective, accurate information for our readers.
Our Editorial Standards
- We do not publish invented facts — RTP, max win and feature claims are sourced and cross-checked, with disagreements flagged rather than hidden.
- We do not promise guaranteed wins, fixed payout speeds, or any outcome no licensed operator could honestly promise.
- We do not use "official site" or "official casino" language, since we are an independent publisher, not an operator.
- We link to demo/free-play options before real-money options on every game review.
- We update reviews when published game data changes, and note the last update date on each page.
Who Writes These Reviews
Gates Hub's content is produced by our editorial team using the sourcing standards described above. We don't publish a fabricated "years of casino floor experience" biography for individual bylines, because we'd rather be accurate about our process — careful research and cross-checking of publicly available data — than invent a credential we don't have. If that changes as the site grows, this page will be updated to reflect it honestly.
What "Depth-First" Actually Means Day to Day
In practice, this shows up in specific editorial decisions you can check against the site itself. Every specs table includes an evidence-status badge (confirmed, likely, or unknown) rather than presenting every figure as equally certain. Every FAQ answer is written specifically for the page it appears on rather than copy-pasted across reviews with the game name swapped. Every "related games" section links only within the actual family being reviewed, rather than padding the page with unrelated cross-links purely for internal linking volume. These aren't abstract principles — they're the concrete difference between a three-review site built properly and a three-hundred-review site built for scale.
Corrections and Contact
If you spot an inaccuracy in any published RTP figure, max win, or feature description, we want to know about it — accuracy is the entire point of this site's existence. See our Terms of Use page for how published information may change over time, and note that game specifications are set by Pragmatic Play and its licensed operators, not by Gates Hub, so corrections to underlying facts are made as new verified information becomes available.
How We Chose to Scope This Site
Early on, we had to decide between two very different site shapes: a wide, shallow catalogue covering every Pragmatic Play slot with a paragraph each, or a narrow, deep one covering a single family properly. We chose the second deliberately. Search demand around "Gates of Olympus demo," "Gates of Olympus 1000 vs original," and "Gates of Olympus RTP" is enormous and underserved by existing thin listicles — three games done properly beats thirty done badly, and that's the bet this entire site is built on. If that scope changes in future, it will be because we can extend the same depth to new titles, not because we've decided breadth alone is worth more than accuracy.
What We Get Wrong and How We Fix It
We won't pretend every fact on this site is permanently correct — Pragmatic Play updates game configurations, operators change their offered RTP variants, and independent sources occasionally disagree with each other before a clear consensus emerges. When we identify an error or an update in published data, we correct the specific page and note the change via the "Updated" date at the top of that review. We don't quietly edit factual claims without updating that date, and we don't retroactively rewrite a review's verdict to make it look like we always had the current information — if our assessment of a game changes because the underlying facts changed, that's a normal and expected part of maintaining an accurate site, not something to hide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Gates Hub affiliated with Pragmatic Play?
No. Gates Hub is an independent review publisher with no ownership or operational relationship to Pragmatic Play or any casino operator.
How does Gates Hub source its facts?
RTP, max win and feature data are sourced from Pragmatic Play's own published game information and cross-checked against independent slot-database listings. Discrepancies between sources are flagged explicitly rather than resolved by guessing.
Does Gates Hub test games itself for RTP accuracy?
No — that requires certified laboratory access that independent testing houses already provide as part of licensing. We synthesise and cross-check published, certified data rather than duplicating that process.
Why doesn't Gates Hub review more games?
Depth over breadth is a deliberate editorial choice — see "Why Only Three Games" above. Any future expansion will follow the same sourcing and review standard rather than padding the catalogue quickly.
What happens if a fact on this site turns out to be wrong?
We correct the specific page and update its "Updated" date. We don't hide corrections or rewrite a review's history to imply we always had the current information.
Can I trust a site that only reviews three games?
We'd argue that's a reason to trust it more, not less — narrow scope means each review gets real research time rather than being one of hundreds produced on a template. Judge the actual depth of any individual review against a generic alternative and decide for yourself.
Does Gates Hub update its reviews after publishing?
Yes, whenever we become aware of a change to published RTP, features, or other verified facts. The "Updated" date at the top of each review reflects the most recent revision, not just the original publish date.
