Some genres of online slots will never get old. One of these timeless genres is games about Ancient Egypt. And if you are a fan of this kind of slot, then look at the Curse of the Mummies from Blue Guru Games. This slot has some classic attributes, like a 5x3 grid, but it can also surprise you in some aspects.
It’s a 243-way online slot with an RTP of 95.73%, and whilst the developer does not state a theoretical maximum win, they do something better – a one billion game round simulation reveals a maximum recorded win of 12,532x. There’s a very wide spread of betting ranges, starting at 0.25 per spin at the bottom end – an acceptable figure for a 243-way slot machine. There are plenty of small steps towards the bottom of the range, but they become very big towards the top end and maximum bet of 100.00.
The low-value symbols are the lotus flowers, scorpions, cobras, and ankhs. The high-value symbols on the other hand are those dreaded mummies.
Wild symbols lend a helping hand on your way to landing a winning combination. The Golden Scarab wild symbol steps in to replace any missing pay symbols that could form part of a win. Although the symbols carry no value of their own, they are still incredibly useful and form part of the Rise from the Crypt feature.
Rise from the Crypt is triggered randomly on any given spin in the base game, the Rise from the Crypt mechanic is the beating heart of Curse of the Mummies. Whenever this feature hits, a random pay symbol is turned into a wild or scatter symbol. This can either help form a winning combination or lead you closer to free spins.
