Having previously plundered the pyramids in its popular Egypt King Book Hunt slot, sought-after software provider Swintt has announced that it will be returning to the land of the pharaohs this month with a brand new chapter in the series, Egypt King Obelisk Quest.
Again set to a backdrop of a long-forgotten temple emblazoned with mystic hieroglyphs, Egypt King Obelisk Quest is a five-reel, ten-payline slot in the SwinttPremium range that sees intrepid explorers, noble queens and sparkling sarcophagi jostle for position among its high-value icons.
Alongside these staple base game symbols, players will need to keep an eye out for special obelisk wilds – which substitute for all other icons and remain on the reels, moving one space to the left after each spin – as well as golden scarab beetle scatters that can trigger Free Spins.
Landing three or more of the latter will reward players with up to 20 Free Spins, with obelisk wilds also becoming increasingly powerful during the feature. Now, not only will every four scarabs collected cause the wilds to expand one row until they completely fill their reels, but any wins recorded as the result of an obelisk wild will also add an extra free spin to further prolong the fun.
Given players can also retrigger Free Spins by landing another set of three or more scarabs, it’s therefore possible to remain in the feature indefinitely while expanded wilds are in full effect, with this transforming Egypt King Obelisk Quest into a medium volatility slot with big prize potential.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With every game in our popular Egypt King series adding an exciting new spin to the classic SwinttPremium format, we’re delighted to be able to invite players all over the world to enjoy the latest instalment in Egypt King Obelisk Quest.”
“Featuring an innovative new bonus mechanic where players can gain multiple Free Spins with progressively bigger wilds, the slot gives players plenty of opportunities to plunder the treasures of the Nile and we’re sure that it’ll go on to become a huge hit at all casinos hosting SwinttPremium slots.”
