Design and Theme

Expect to come across all things Egypt right from the minute the game screen loads as you will find yourself amid a lavish pharaoh tomb which is waiting for you to explore every nook and cranny.

Gameplay, Facts and Figures

The slot plays out over a common 5x3 game grid that has 10 pay lines. The graphics are truly spectacular, and the soundtrack is most definitely one of the best I have heard in a long time, it complements the game play perfectly and ties everything the slot has to offer in a tidy little package! You can expect to come across several features during your journey such as wild scatters, unlimited free spins, expanding symbols and a gamble feature but we will look at this a little further down this review.
When it comes to the pay-out potential, the return to player offers 95.42% at best and it is always worth checking this before you begin to play as this can vary in accordance with the game provider. The highest win available is 5,504x your stake and as this is considered a slot with high variance your chance of landing wins is good overall.

Ready to play

Once you are ready to spin your reels the first thing you need to do is to choose the bet that you are comfortable playing with. The minimum bet is set at just 0.10 credits which equates to 0.01 credits per pay line, and this is the perfect stake for those who like to enjoy the play whilst maintaining safer risks. However, for the high rollers that are looking for their own style of high stakes play the maximum bet stands at 75 credits. This is a great bet range as the available choices accommodate all styles of play.

Pressing that spin button will allow you to take a better look at some of the symbols such as your friendly fellow adventurer, Anubis, sarcophaguses, and golden vases, all representing the higher paying symbols. Although the symbols that will reward you with the higher pay outs are very well in keeping with the theme, the lower symbols are rather drab and are made up from the usual playing card symbols 10 through to Ace.

Features

When it comes to the features there are several on offer, the first is the wild scatter which acts as the scatter and the wild symbol and as such can substitute for all other symbols to create winning combinations although you need to remember that the wild/scatter cannot substitute for the expanding symbols and if you land three of a kind you will be rewarded with free spins.
The next feature is the free spins which are unlimited meaning that they can reactivate all through the feature. To activate the free spins feature you need to land three or more of the scatter wild symbols anywhere on your reels and for this you will be rewarded with eight free spins. The best thing with this feature is that for the entire duration you can land combinations that will add to your free spins by a further eight and this can mean the free spins can rack up indefinitely.

The expanding symbols feature start when you activate the free spin feature, and you get to select a random symbol that is then the expanding symbol for the entire duration of the free spins feature. Finally, there is the gamble feature which gives you the opportunity to double or quadruple your winnings by taking part in a mini game where you need to guess either the colour or the suit of the card that is lying face down on the screen. Just remember make an incorrect guess and you will lose your current win.
