Push Gaming expands the reelset and win potential in 10 Pharaohs

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming’s latest slot takes player favourite mechanics and blends them with a slot staple theme in its latest release, 10 Pharaohs.
Inspired by the previous hit 10 Swords, this new adventure through the tombs of Ancient Egypt delivers a crypt full of established mechanics with a fresh twist to blow the cobwebs off the treasures hiding beneath the sands.
Players must brave the Pharaoh’s resting place and uncover untold riches via the beloved scatter pays mechanic. The excitement is elevated with the introduction of jackpot symbols that behave like regular versions but also award an instant prize, giving players more to aim for while ramping up the engagement.
10 Pharaohs’ main differentiator is its captivating bonus game. Players embark on a progressive journey through different levels, with each advancement expanding the reel set. As the reels grow, so do the chances of landing more pharaoh symbols, amplifying the anticipation and the potential rewards.
Push Gaming’s proprietary Push-Up feature puts the golden seal on proceedings, too. Players can strategically expand the reel set during the base game for an additional cost, significantly increasing their odds of landing both pharaoh and scarab symbols. The feature also guarantees that the free spins commence with unlocked reels, injecting an extra layer of gameplay thrill.
Monika Łukowska, Game Producer at Push Gaming, said: “Players spoke, and we listened – the much-loved scatter pays is back in 10 Pharaohs, but we’ve raised the game with instant rewards.
“We’ve also taken free spins a step further and added Push Up™ and expanding reels into the mix to get the most out of the action in an Egyptian expedition of a lifetime!”
