Ancient Egypt

Inside the game

Captured in the studio's own free demo on 8 September 2026. Nothing below is taken from a press release or another site — it is what the game shows when you open it.

The base gameFive reels and three rows on a purple ground, between two hieroglyphic columns and two lit braziers. The queen takes the centre of the third reel, two Anubis face each other on reels 4 and 5, and the A, K, Q, J letters and the 10 fill the rest. The bet shown at the bottom is $2; no feature purchase button appears on screen.
Game rulesPage 1 of 7: the pay table at a $2 bet, with the reading rule at the top — everything pays from left to right on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel. The queen leads at $1,000 for five of a kind and pays from two; then come Anubis at $400, the ankh and the Eye of Horus at $100, then the letters, A and K at $30, Q, J and 10 at $20.
Game rulesPage 2 of 7, the golden scarab's page: it is both SCATTER and WILD, substitutes for every symbol and pays as a multiple of the total bet — 1× at three, 10× at four, 50× at five. Three or more anywhere on the reels open the BONUS GAME, where one casket out of three is picked. The three possible prizes are listed: the free spins with a randomly drawn expanding symbol, the HIGH AWARD — a direct win of 10× to 500× the total bet — and the LOW AWARD, which returns 1× the total bet.
Game rulesPage 3 of 7 details the free spins prize of the BONUS GAME, illustrated by an example grid where the queen and the scarab sit side by side. The round runs to 10 spins, and a special symbol is drawn at random before it starts: it pays according to its table wherever it lands, on all reels and even on non-adjacent positions, then expands vertically over the three cells of its reel. Three or more scatters during the round add 10 spins, with the same special symbol.
Game rulesPage 4 of 7, the figures page, headed by the "LOW VOLATILITY" banner. The ten fixed lines are drawn one by one, numbered 1 to 10. The game notes that all wins are multiplied by the bet per line, that values are expressed in coins, that the free spins win is added to the payline win, and it states its theoretical RTP of 96.13%.
How to playPage 5 of 7, "HOW TO PLAY" then "MAIN GAME INTERFACE": the plus and minus buttons change the bet value and open the bet menu, the round button starts the spin. Then comes the list of icons — settings, three chevrons for normal, quick and turbo speed, speaker, information page — and the note that the CREDIT and BET counters switch between coins view and cash view with a click on their label.
Settings menuPage 6 of 7: the settings menu, where the intro screen, the ambient sound and the sound effects each toggle separately and where the game history opens. Below, the panel's navigation — green arrows to turn pages, cross to close — and the bet menu, which shows the number of lines and the total bet in both coins and cash, adjusted through the COINS PER LINE and COIN VALUE fields.
AutoplayPage 7 of 7, the last one: autoplay starts by clicking one of the spin counts on offer, and the SKIP SCREENS option jumps past the feature's intro and end screens after a moment. Behind the text, the five reels stay visible, heavily dimmed.
Buying the featureThe same five-reel grid at rest, the title at the top having given way to the banner "IS WILD AND SUBSTITUTES FOR ALL SYMBOLS", preceded by the golden scarab. No spin is under way and the bet stays at $2.
