Legacy Of Egypt

Legacy Of Egypt

The wombat says: Well, we’ll be jiggered wombat fans – if Play’n Go hasn’t cashed in on the runaway success of mega slot Book of Dead and released a very similar game. This is not bad, as both slots are great additions to the developer’s portfolios. Legacy of Egypt ventures into the depths of Ancient Egyptian land and lets you see some potential riches hidden away in those times.

Well, these slots designers are a dab hand at classically-themed. Every slot they release is based on a certain theme and always meets the criteria perfectly. This slot is no different, and you can look at other examples, such as Rise of Olympus, if you don’t believe me, as that is yet another classic in their growing catalogue.

The Legacy of Egypt slot is another highly volatile release in the Play’n GO collection. This slot game comes with a 10x multiplier during the free spins bonus feature. So, hold on to your golden headgear – it’s time to hit the Pyramids.

If you are unfamiliar with Egyptian-themed slots, there are plenty of other options here at Wombat Casino that the friendly local Wombat Tourguide would be happy to show you around. You may have already been to the Pyramids in the Jungle Jim and Lost Sphinx slot game, but that just means you are even better prepared to visit them again in this slot.

Look and Feel

During the Legacy of Egypt slot, gameplay takes place in a temple courtyard, delicately placed in front of rolling blue skies. The Reel machine is bejewelled and glistens in the beaming sun.

The reels are also set between some fancy pillars, plastered with Egyptian hieroglyphics and drawings. All these design factors and the beautiful soundtrack of harps and lyres set the tone and make you feel as though you are fully immersed in this Egyptian world of wonder.

The design is simple enough to be easy on the eye while still doing its job.

Legacy of Egypt Slot Game Play

This Play’n Go title has five reels spread over three rows with 30 paylines to play through. This number of paylines is double what you find in your average slot game like Ocean’s Treasure. The slight increase in paylines means you may see a few more wins compared to the slot mentioned above.

The minimum bet in this game is 0.30, and the maximum bet is 90.00 per spin. With the market for themed slot games expanding daily, we expect Egyptian slots to have similar symbols despite who produces the games. In Legacy of Egypt, the main symbols are made up of Ancient Gods.

The Egyptian Gods in question are as follows:

– Bastet, the cat goddess of…well, cats. Also, the daughter of Ra, the sun god.
– Sobek, the crocodile god of the Nile (and Lord of the Crocodiles, of course)
– Anubis, the jackal god of the dead and buried, Wombat’s favourite god
– Horus, the eagle god of war. He seems like a bit of a drag, to be honest!

You will also see two Pharaohs, a male and a female, who act as other symbols within the game. Both of these individuals are sporting some pretty serious and eye-catching headgear. The two Pharaohs are the most valuable symbols on your reels during this game and can pay out 10x your stake for five along any payline.

The lower-valued symbols in this game are where the common culprits make a return. These, of course, are the playing card symbols of J, Q, K and A. Although these symbols are very common among slot games, they are still designed to make them adhere to the theme better.

The game’s Wild symbol comes in the form of a Scarab beetle. It will replace all other symbols on the reels to make more winning combos for you, except the Pyramid Scatter. All in all, it’s a very nice-looking game with a plethora of symbols to keep your eye out for.

Free Spins and Bonuses

Here is where the game gets even more exciting!

Landing three or more of the Scatter symbol across your reels will trigger the Wheel of the Gods bonus round, in which you are given a random number of free spins between 3 and 30. In addition, a random multiplier is added to each free spin, which can range from 2x to 10x your stake per spin!

You can trigger a further bonus round known as the Pyramid Spins round during these free spins. This is done by landing two more of the Scatter symbols during your Wheel of the Gods free spins. After doing this, you will enter the next free spins round – exciting, right?

You can get between three and eight more free spins here, and the multiplier will stay the same as it was during the previous free spin. You could get your hands on a 10x multiplier for eight spins which means some serious wonga!

Conclusion:

Wombat fans, it’s tempting to see the Legacy of Egypt slot as ‘just another’ Ancient Egyptian game but we reckon it sets itself apart because of the possible big payouts.

If you’re lucky enough to land one of those high multipliers during the Pyramid Spins you’ll be chuckling all the way to the bank. For real.

It’s as good as Book Of Dead, which is no mean feat. Give it a go!

Wombat score: 4.5 out 5
