Egypt’s Treasures Slot Machine
As a lover of Egypt (why else would you be here?), you’ve probably played with the likes of 777igt before. Their Egypt Style was, and still is, a popular game with players. Even though it’s a tough game to beat, Egypt’s Treasures, best described as an older relative of Egypt Style. As a result, it’s an ideal online game for old school enthusiasts.
This time you’ll be playing with slightly less impressive graphics and animations, but the core of the title, its essence, is the same. What is more, it doesn’t have any delays or lag issues because it isn’t crammed full of high quality software. If you’re a gamer on an older device, it can hard to enjoy large contemporary games, mainly because they eat up your memory, but you don't have that problem here.
Gone are the fancy carvings and ancient settings, and instead we have orange and brown backgrounds, with only the 3x5 grid being of any interest. It’s plain, yet there’s something so very appealing about it. Furthermore, by having less going on in the background, it makes the images upon the reels all the more enticing.
On the Road to Discovery
There are three main rewards to get in Egypt’s Treasures: the Minor, Mini and Mega Jackpot. Instead of being unlocked at the end of your game, these payouts can randomly appear at anytime, though you’ll always need five of the icons for the win to be made. Although they boast massive piles of cash, all of which seem obscene in their generosity, they’re not easy to come by.
Three of a kind is tough enough to get, but five? Well that’s something else entirely. You’ll have to be determined to make it to the end.
Luckily for everyone involved, even 777igt itself, there are plenty of other extras to soothe the wounds of those who have fought for the top spot and failed.
Beneath Sand and Ruin
Underneath all that sand, washed away by time and modernity, lies scatter, free spins, and bonus symbols, all of them eager to feel the touch of the sun upon them once more. They’ve been hidden away for so long, often being forgotten in favour of the enormous jackpots Egypt’s Treasures promotes.
Cleopatra may have the word bonus branded below her radiate face, but she isn’t the bonus tile but is instead the free spins one.
Why the misdirection, it’s hard to say, but it definitely means you’ll experience a lot of anticlimaxes when you think you’ve got the feature game and then actually haven’t. A poor design choice from the brand.
The unassuming scarab beetle is really the bonus level symbol, but as for what it does we just can’t say. The volatility of the title was so strong that we never managed to get pass the base level of the game. Given the simplicity of the rest of the activity, we doubt the mini level will be awe inspiring.
Finally, but not least of all, we come to the scatter icon, a tile adorned by a young and colourful pharaoh; he has the power to grant a x100 multiplier. However, he can also gift you a mere x5, making him a fickle and difficult ruler to understand.
Additional Information
What else is there left to say about this game? There’s a minimum bet of 0.50, when using all 50 of the winlines, with the maximum stake being 60 credits, easily inputted via the Max Bet widget. Moreover, you have the ability to change the number of paylines to suit both your ability and budget, which will make all the difference when it comes to deciding whether to play for real or not.
This title from 777igt isn’t all bad, but it’s not going to be one that wins over a lot of gamers. It just doesn’t hold enough variation for that to happen. Also, when you can get all the same features elsewhere, in a more appealing activity, why would you settle for anything less?
If this is your first experience of the brand, don’t pay it too much attention for 777igt has many exceptional games out there for you to try, you simply haven’t see the brand at its best. Give them another go with a slot like Dragons and you’ll see an immediate difference.
