Spinomenal releases Times of Egypt – Pharaoh’s Reign slot
Spinomenal, the leading iGaming content provider, has released its exceptional new title, Times of Egypt – Pharaoh’s Reign.
Spinomenal’s Egyptian inspired slot is set in ancient Africa alongside the Nile where golden riches lie for those successful players. An absorbing soundtrack builds atmosphere on the reels which is a classic 5×3 design and is packed with an array of shimmering symbols.
The Wild symbol is the powerful Pharaoh character and counts for any symbol aside from Free Spins. Five Wild symbols on a designated winning payline will pay an impressive x2000 the stake. Three or more magical Pyramid symbols will trigger the Free Spins feature.
Before beginning the Free Spins feature players are given the option to choose between playing the round with 20 Free Spins with 1×2 Stacked medium symbols or 10 Free Spins with 1×3 Stacked medium symbols. Another five spins will be granted should players uncover three or more Scatters during the Free Spins feature.
Spinomenal’s CTO, Omer Henya, commented: “Times of Egypt – Pharaoh’s Reign is a terrific addition to our ever-growing games catalogue. Players will love the slick game-play, stylish designs and immersive soundtrack that helps bring it all together.”
