The base game features modifiers that mix up the immersive experience, including a brand-new mystery scatter symbol that is selected on each spin. The symbols, based on Egyptian artefacts, range from low-paying classic icons to more premium symbols, represented by birds, cats, pyramids, and the special Eye of Horus. The highest paying symbol in Mysterious Egypt is the Eye of Horus, which pays 500x for landing five across a payline. On every spin a special mystery symbol is randomly selected which can expand vertically to cover a reel. Three or more Scatter Symbols trigger the Free Spins mode. The Scatter also acts as a wild throughout all gameplay modes.
Blueprint Gaming has enhanced its hugely popular Jackpot King series for the new year with the inclusion of the classic gaming title, 7’s Deluxe. Following the successful additions of Reel Time Gaming (RTG) transitioned games to the Jackpot King progressive system, such as Eye of Horus and Fishin’ Frenzy, the company has moved to broaden the appeal of the industry’s leading jackpot offering with this latest entry. Only three Jackpot King symbols are required to gain entry to the Wheel King in this scorching-hot slot, where anticipation goes into overdrive with the potential to win big from one of three progressive pots. The original RTG game holds extensive market appeal across Europe, particularly within newly-regulated territories. The fruit machine inspired title is based on the classic sevens game and includes Wild Seven Substitutes, where the flaming 7 wild symbol substitutes the classic 7 symbol for extra wins.
Playson has unveiled an enthralling new slot title, Super Sunny Fruits: Hold and Win. Following on from the beloved Playson hit Sunny Fruits: Hold and Win, the developer’s latest game enhances that popular classic with the collecting symbol being added to Hold and Win mechanics, which remain a firm favourite among fans throughout the globe.
