Scarab Riches Slots

Scarab Riches is a low volatility online slot by Booongo. The RTP for this game lands around 95.20%, and is a delightful Egyptian themed game. The theme and soundtrack are both intriguing, and complementary. Scarab Riches also comes with an excellent bonus game. Ancient Egypt is a fairly typical online slot theme, so it takes considerable effort to stand out amongst the competition. This game is played on five reels with 25 paylines, and features three rows of symbols. All of the symbols feature tons of lore, and represent some of Egypt's most famous figures and symbols. They have Nefertiti, and Tutankhamun, along with others. The scarab logo is located at the top of the reels, and it contains a portal that randomly splits the wild scarabs onto the reels. You can trigger up to twelve scarabs on the reels when this bonus is triggered, which can lead to some massive wins.

Theme

Ancient Egypt as a theme is visible in every detail of this game board, no matter how minor. There are ancient stone carvings, and sandstone. This game takes place in a temple of sorts, and the design of all symbols including the playing cards has an Egyptian flare. The animations are moderate, but the actual style of the game is iconic. The soundtrack that accompanies the game as you spin suits its origins, and further immerses you into Egypt. The soundtrack is very traditional, and cultural, but does shift into a bit of a more contemporary sound during the bonus feature. The long term RTP for this game is 95.20%, which is roughly average. This is a low-volatility game, so you'll encounter tons of small wins while playing. However, winning bigger sums will take a bit of patience and luck.

Playing Scarab Riches is straightforward and suitable for players of all budgets, with a minimum bet of 0.25 and maximum of 50.00.

How to Play Scarab Riches

Special Features

Scarab Riches has quite a few special features. If you land five Tutankhamun symbols, you'll receive twelve times your bet. If you land five Nefertiti symbols or Horus symbols, you'll receive 8x your bet, and if you land five Anubis or Bastet symbols, you'll receive 6x your total bet.

If you land three or more Pyramid scatters on the reels, you'll trigger the bonus feature. This bonus feature consists of ten free spins, which can be retriggered if you land three or more scatters on the reels. Free spins are paid out at the same level as the bet placed on the reels which triggers the bonus feature. They also have a Wild Scarabs feature, which places four to twelve wild scarabs on the reels. These wilds can appear randomly in any location on the grid. The wild scarabs land during base spins and free spins, but the chances of landing wild scarabs increase during the free spins.

Verdict

Let's be honest, an Egyptian slot game isn't the most original concept. However, when created with enough love and care, an Egyptian-themed game can quickly become a fan favorite. Scarab Riches has all the makings of a long-lasting, beloved slot.
