The game has a high level of volatility and a default RTP of 96.23%. Still, you can find that some operators offer it with lower RTPs of 94.19% and 91.19%. The game has scatters, wilds, free spins, Pyramid Spins, which you can re-trigger. The top reward is 5,000 times your stake which is £500,000.
The game load ushering you inside a pyramid. The reels are guarded by 2 large Horus statues. They are positioned on a pedestal each, which is carved with hieroglyphs. The two falcon statues observe the action on the reels.
You will land of the cat goddess Bastet and the eagle god Horus dominating the reels. Here are also the nicely styled card royals, Ankh crosses, scorpions snakes and pyramids. As usual, the free spins take place in a different set and you see a pyramid behind.
The low-paying symbols are the beautifully styled cards from J through to A that return 5 times your bet for 5 of a kind. The high-value symbols are the flower icon, Ankh cross, snake and scorpion. Here are Bastet and Horus too. Land 5 of any of these to win from 10 to 100 times your stake.
The wild is the fabled scarab replacing missing symbols. A turquoise pyramid with the Eye of Horus is the scatter. It transforms into a wild during free spins becoming red. Land a full line of the wild to win 100x bet. Five scatters give you 1,000 times your stake.
The focus of the game is the Wheel of Gods feature. You activate it by hitting 3 or more pyramids anywhere on the reels in one spin. You also win a coin reward of 5x, 20x or 1,000x stake for 3, 4 or 5 scatters, respectively. You will see the wheel spinning and giving you 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15 or 20 free spins.
For each free spin, you will have one premium symbol chosen and all others upgraded. This seems inspired by the Eye of Horus slot. The other twist is the turning of the pyramid scatter into Wild Scatter, which attains a red hue.
Getting 2 wild scatters in one free spin activates the Pyramid Spins. You will be rewarded with 4 spins for each triggering scatter and can win up to 20 spins from 5 wild scatters. Landing 2 or more wild scatters in a free spin re-triggers the Pyramid Spins without limits.
