Mega Pyramid

The gods of ancient Egypt have descended upon the reels in order to oversee your fortuitous destiny. Mega Pyramid slot is a brand new game from Red Tiger, a slots software studio on a roll in delivering well crafted and generous titles. Free spins, substitution symbols and a respectable jackpot all combine to deliver a regal experience on the reels. While the ancient Egyptian theme is fairly prosaic in the online slots world there is always room to deliver something unique, so lets see what Red Tiger have come up with for iGamers the world over.

Red Tiger gaming studios has only been around since 2014 but has managed to accrue a healthy stable of games in a short period. The reason for this is simple – unique themes, great graphics and titles that pay above average amounts. While Mega Pyramid might not have the unique theme it certainly has the superb graphics and generous payout potential. The background to the reels is a mysterious pyramid that transitions from night to day and back again. There isn’t too much going on in terms on video effects besides the spinning reels, but the illustrations are of high quality for added effect.

We’ve mentioned that the payout potential is generous, which it most certainly is. The maximum amount players can win on Mega Pyramid is £100,000.00 playing a maximum bet of £20.00. While there are higher jackpots in rival games they’ll all require that you play maximum bets in excess of £50.00 and higher. Therefore the amount you spend compared to the amount you can win is as attractive as Cleopatra’s nose. The game and its wins are exactly the same on mobile as on desktop, which wasn’t always the case in the past, while there is a RTP of 96.18% to help keep losses to a minimum.

Feature Symbols

When adopting an ancient Egyptian theme it leaves little to the imagination as to what symbols players can expect. Almost all studios use symbols similar to their rivals, most probably because hieroglyphics are the icons most associated with this era. The lower paying symbols begin with a circle icon, which is joined by suit card symbols Heart, Ace, Diamond and Club. Then comes the standard Egyptian themed icons that act as the higher paying symbols. You’ll find Horus as the Eagle, a scroll, a scarab and Anubis the scary jackal. Anubis is the highest paying of the lot paying 4500x your bet for landing 5 of a kind.

There is a scatter symbol to keep your eyes out for, and this is simply identified as being labelled ‘Free Spins’.

Bonuses and Jackpots

Red Tiger have not given us a bonus feature that would give you the wealth of Tutankhamun, but it is effective nonetheless. You’ll be able to land yourself 10 free spins, which means there is the chance to win cash without actually having to wager. To trigger these spins you’ll need to land a scatter symbol on reels 1, 3 and 5 on the same spin. If you happen to land another 3 scatters during the free spins you’ll be awarded more spins. There is the potential to get wrapped up like a mummy in the free spins as there is no limit to how many you can trigger.
There is also The Pyramid Eye feature. This is completely random, and what is does is replace various symbols on the reels with matching symbols to grant you a fabulous pay day. There is the possibility of landing all the same symbols on the reels courtesy of this feature.

Play Mega Pyramid Slot at PartyCasino

While we’ve reviewed enough ancient Egyptian themed online slots to fill the sands of time this title proved quite enjoyable. There isn’t anything that will get seasoned slots players overly excited but there is a competent free spins feature, while the Pyramid Eye presents you with easy pickings and potential high wins without you really needing to try. It would have been a welcomed addition to have a dedicated wild symbol as opposed to relying on the Eye to create wild functionality, but for novice players the win potential and ease of play will make for real fun. The treasure is there for the taking, you just need to climb that pyramid and claim it.
