Reels, Paylines, Bets
The video slot’s grid is beautifully designed with symbols of an ancient culture, while the user interface brings to life some ancient myths in a remarkable way. There are 5 reels and 9 paylines featuring 12 symbols. Bets per line are set to $ 0.15 and $ 0.25, and there is an impressive progressive jackpot for each of the two options.
The wild symbol of the game is the Queen. The progressive jackpot is won by collecting 5 wild symbols on the same payline, while betting maximum. The maximum bet is $ 1.35 or $ 2.25 depending on the payline value you choose at the beginning. At two symbols collected, you receive 25 credits, at 3 you get 150, four symbols are worth 500 credits, while 5 Queens will get you the progressive jackpot, provided you bet on all paylines. If you do not bet on all the paylines but still get 5 such symbols, you are awarded 40,000 credits!
The amount of credits is always multiplied by the bet per line to calculate your winnings.
The scatter symbol in Queen of the Pyramids is the Scorpion. It offers you up to 100 free spins if you collect it more than 3 times. Collected 3 times, it is worth 5 free spins, 4 items will give you 25 spins while 5 scorpions offer an amazing 100 free spins! If during the free spins you manage to find 3 or more Scorpions again, you are awarded other free spins!
There is also a bonus symbol in the game, the Blue Unicorn. Three such symbols on one payline will get you into the bonus round, where you get to spin a wheel and win anything from 500 to 2,500 credits! The other symbols pay out well, too. Except for the Green Bird and the Sphinx, every other symbol will increase your earnings even if collected twice.
