Pharaoh’s Treasure Slots

Pharaohs-TreasureA title like Pharaoh’s Treasure doesn’t leave much to the imagination, as you know immediately that it’s a slot machine that focuses on Egyptian legacy, on the things that made Ancient Egypt a great civilization, that is still remembered and admired today. From their pyramids, to the deities and the history (Cleopatra included), Egypt has a lot of things that you can admire, and you can do that through Pharaoh’s Treasure and its symbols.

You will discover a total of 20 paylines and 5 reels in this Egyptian themed slot from IGT. The game has plenty of features and bonus games to give you, with the multipliers, free spins, scatters and wilds making appearances throughout. The $5,000 payout might not seem like a great reason to keep an eye on this game, but the wagers required inside are low enough to make it a winner.

Features of Pharaoh’s Treasure

This is what you would call a feature rich environment, giving you all the usual bonus games, free spins with multipliers, wild symbols and scatters.

The wild symbol is an important part of the slot, offering one of the bigger prizes, 3,000 coins, but also acting as your usual go to symbol when you need that one last push to get paid. It can substitute for any other regular symbol, and if it’s placed in the right position that can mean a new combo being formed, and that’s only possible with its help. The two other special symbols don’t benefit from the wild’s presence, only the regular symbols do.

The Scarab scatter is as usual quite important in this game, offering not only large prizes but also free spins. The prizes vary between 1.5x and 500x the triggering bet, depending on the number of symbols that are present. You need five Scarabs scattered on the reels to get the highest amount.

Free Spins

The presence of at least three Scarabs will also signal the start of a round of 10 free games, all of them taking advantage of 3x multipliers. The payout offered by the bonus features doesn’t triple in value, but the one from the wild does do that.

Tut’s Tomb Feature

This is another bonus symbol in Pharaoh’s Treasure, but it’s not a scatter. Instead, you need these Tutankhamen icons to appear on the same active line, with 3 to 5 of them together. The result is the bonus feature that gives you a chance to win prizes. It’s called Tut’s Tomb and it can give you a progressive jackpot, or alternative prizes that are quite generous on their own. The appearance of three masks of Tutankhamen will be enough to award the progressive jackpot, with better chances being offered to those that use larger bets.

Betting options and jackpots

The coins of Pharaoh’s Treasure will vary between $0.10 and $1, which is enough to increase your bet ten times if you’re going from one end to the other. It’s not a lot when it is compared with other slots, so it’s a game that low to mid rollers will want to try out, but high rollers will not enjoy it since the maximum limit is only $20.

The rewards are on the low side as a result, with 5,000 coins/$5,000 being offered as part of its top jackpot. During the base game, you can win up to $3,000/3,000 coins.

Design and symbols

With so many other Egyptian slot machines already on the market, you will find it quite easy to put this title into good looking or bad looking territory, simply by comparing it with what exists out there. I’d consider it one of the more enjoyable Egyptian themed slots, with vivid colors present in most symbols, with enough details to make them fun to look at, but with some playing cards as well, unfortunately.

Symbols: Logo (wild, 3,000x), Tutankhamen (bonus, 5,000x), Scarab (scatter, 500x), Cleopatra (1,000x), Sphinx (500x), Nile (350x), Ace (100x), King (80x), Queen (50x), Jack (40x) and 10 (30x).

Is It Worth Playing?

Even with the Egyptian theme that is so popular these days, this game still manages to impress and make itself a title that shouldn’t be missed. It doesn’t hurt that it has that progressive jackpot to offer you, but it doesn’t need it to be a good slot machine.

Pharaoh’s Treasure can be found at any IGT casino, where you get a chance to play it for real money or in free mode.
