Theme and Design
The Sun of Egypt 4 is a popular video slot machine developed by Pragmatic Play. The game takes players on an adventure through ancient Egypt, where they are transported to a world filled with pyramids, pharaohs, and treasures. As expected from the name, the primary Sun of Egypt 4 pokie theme revolves around the sun god, Ra, which is prominent in Egyptian mythology. The design of the slot machine reflects this by incorporating golden and blue color schemes that give off an air of luxury and mystery.
Symbols and Payouts
The game features 5 reels with a total number of 10 paylines. There are several symbols present on the reels, each offering varying payouts upon matching specific combinations. Some of these include:
- Low-paying symbols: A pair of playing cards (J, Q, K), as well as some Egyptian-themed symbols like an Ankh and a Scarab.
- Medium-paying symbols: These consist of higher-value ancient Egypt-inspired figures such as pharaohs wearing golden jewelry or sitting on thrones.
- High-paying symbols: Some high-roller players will be thrilled to see the 5x-high jackpots won using these, namely:
- Pharaoh (a richly-dressed figure wearing an ornate headpiece)
- Anubis
- The Jackpot Pyramid Symbol
The winning combinations can vary from three matching symbols on a reel up to five. With medium-paying and high-paying symbols providing higher payouts for the corresponding win lines.
Wilds
In this version of Sun of Egypt, there is one Wild symbol (an Egyptian Sphinx). It replaces any other symbol in a combination except scatters but doesn’t multiply or double when it triggers.
Scatters
The game features three Scatter Symbols:
- Pharaoh
- Scarab
Three to five Scattered symbols anywhere on the reels trigger 8, 12 or 16 free spins respectively.
During Free Spins you can get:
- 5x Multiplier Bonus applied during bonus round (which affects all wins).
- Sticky Expanding Wilds are enabled after a minimum of two expanding Wilds appear in three consecutive plays
Bonus Features
These include an option for players to increase the prize pool as well as re-spun reels. These also open up new slots when a scatter lands on them.
To maximize potential winnings and your RTP, always choose all available bonus options at each spin. Maximizing wins from each game play can contribute positively toward the overall house edge in this particular version of "Sun Of Egypt".
Free Spins
In this iteration, Free Spin rounds are awarded without a guaranteed payout multiplier or progressive jackpot. No re-spins appear to be available.
You cannot increase your RTP using any free spins as these have their own built-in payouts. The slot machine still holds the same house edge with every spin.
However, players can look forward to an added perk: A randomly triggered Wild Nudge after at least one non-winning game. The new wild expands upwards covering up other symbols until they disappear offscreen or more wins are formed; if no win occurs on any given turn (e.g., there were only blanks present), you have lost money without acquiring anything.
RTP and Volatility
The theoretical Return to Player rate has been set at 95.50%. Although higher compared with some classic games, this is still a below-average RTP when compared with top-rated slots available online today. As for the volatility level: High-Variance Games Are Expected For Every Spin Resulting From Each Game.
Players can pick one betting option from four different denominations and place up to 1 coin per payline on maximum.
Bets in Sun of Egypt vary between a low $0.10 minimum stake and $25. That is roughly two times more than many others at a similar RTP rate but might not be enough for heavy high rollers looking to bet the full bankroll risked during each hand when gaming with max coins selected.
Max Win
In this particular version of Sun of Egypt slot machine, there isn’t a guaranteed Progressive Jackpot.
