Graphics
The graphics and soundtrack are very slick on Ancient Disco, with an extensive set of speakers playing upbeat disco music across a dance floor complete with strobe lights and some classic disco balls. The Egyptian theme is evident on the reels with a pyramid behind and massive pillars with Egyptian hieroglyphics to the side.
There are no wilds in this slot. Instead, the slot centres around the pyramid symbols and these are key to the decent wins.
Gameplay
The Ancient Disco slot has a minimum bet of 0.20 and a maximum of 4.00. It has five reels, three rows, and 20 fixed pay lines. You should aim to collect as many Ancient Disco scatters as possible to climb the ladder to bigger prizes.
The symbols on Ancient Disco include the lower value playing card symbols A, K, Q and J, which pay between x0.8 and x2 for five of a kind. Higher-paying symbols include an umbrella cocktail, a golden scarab, a clay pot, a cat with party sunglasses and a pharaoh. These symbols pay out between x5 and x25 your bet.
Bonuses
There are a few bonus round features on Ancient Disco. Let us take a look:
You can win a stake multiplier prize by landing six or more Ancient Disco scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. The wins get paid out as follows:
Prize Ladder
– 6 Ancient Disco scatters – x5 win
– 7 scatters – x15 win
– 8 scatters– x25 win
– 9 scatters – x50 win
– 10 scatters – x100 win
– 11 scatters – x250 win
– 12 Disco scatters – x500 win
– 13 scatters – x750 win
– 14 scatters – x1,250 win
– 15 scatters – x2,500 win
If the Ancient Disco scatters fill an entire reel or row, any award achieved on the prize ladder will get increased by the corresponding initial prize amount.
Each filled reel or row increases the prize ladder by this amount. A full screen of Ancient Disco scatters will multiply the prizes by 8x the initial value, resulting in the maximum possible pay out on this slot of 22,500x the bet for all fifteen Ancient Disco symbols.
Pyramid Spins
Pyramid Spins is a feature triggered by three or more scatter symbols taking up two rows. These symbols become sticky, and you need a minimum of six symbols.
You start with 3-5 spins, depending on how many symbols triggered the feature. Each spin can result in a blank or Ancient Disco Symbol. An Ancient Disco Symbol resets the spins, and the feature continues until there are no more spins or the grid is filled.
Bonus Buy
There is a bonus buy button that you can activate at any time and buy one of the two features. First up, for x15, your bet you can buy the Ancient Disco feature, where you will get more scatters on the reels with only one spin available.
Next up for x90, your bet you can buy the Pyramid Spins, which then works the same as if it landed naturally.
Summary
Ancient Disco is a sparkly, exciting slot that gives you many opportunities to win big prizes, especially with that x22,500 multiplier up for grabs. It’s bright, engaging and a fun game.
If you want to test the slot without using real money, you can do so in demo mode. It is a great way to try it out and buy the Ancient Disco slot features.
