Coming down the pike, once again, is another Egyptian-themed game in the fertile lands of online slots with neither a Cleopatra nor a King Tut theme solely, but with a mix of Egyptian culture and symbology combined.
Enter into the tombs of Egypt and begin your own excavation by spinning symbols from the Eye of Ra to the goddess Isis. King Tut is the wild character in this collection of Egyptian big wigs and the snake on his headdress will strike out on the reels and breathe gold fire. Better yet, King Tut will expand during the free spins feature for added wins, all of which are doubled virtually making almost every spin a win. Then a scarab beetle crawls into the scene, an Egyptian symbol that what was comparable in religious importance as the cross is to the Christian. The scarab, a dung beetle, rolls its dung ball like the god Khepera was believed to have pushed the sun across the sky, significant for the birth and rebirth of the sun.
Come on, wasn’t there a more tasteful and less repulsive alternative symbol to choose from? Unfortunately not, so put on your robe of Egyptian spiritualism and roll out something better than a ball of dung. Pharaoh’s Secret slot is a 5 reeler 20 payliner new by Playtech that portrays the Egyptians with accurate and interesting details and offers many chances to win.
The graphics and animation are spectacular with a door leading into tombs that open up farther chamber rooms. Isis kneels with her emerald green wings spread out to her sides and the Eye of Ra opens and the eyeball moves and then dilates, a common belief that the spirit of the dead was moving into the outer world.
There is an optional Xtra wins feature that will increase the player’s total bet 50% but will ultimately increase, over time, the overall payout. In the Pharaoh’s secret bonus round, 3 pyramids trigger the feature where players get to chose from 3 different Egyptian gold coin symbols: the scarab beetle, the Eye of Ra and Isis. A random number will appear and that number will put that symbol that many times on the reels and determine the free games players will receive. The bonus can be hit again within the round and free spins can go on indefinitely.
Double or double half any win by using the hi/low gamble feature for up to $5,000, stop at any time and collect. Live the Egyptian lore once again and discover that not everything Egyptian has been laid to rest. Resurrect the riches of this slots game with the sacred dung beetle to creep alongside you during a plausible passage from the land of the poor to the land of the rich. Good luck!
