Ancient Secrets

Intro

One of the greatest civilizations has served as an inspiration for many movies, books, plays, and games, of course. Ancient Egypt was a land of mystery…

…and its people had an unhealthy obsession with death. Well… for today's standards at least.

"BF Games" software provider published the game by taking the elements from that sophisticated and complex culture. Although they are not the first, the studio certainly did give their twist to the genre.

Theme

A vast and scorching desert is a depiction of the setting.

On the left stands a mighty and most powerful Ra, God of the Sun and giver of life. On the right is a sultry and seductive Egyptian woman that looks at players over her shoulder with her piercing brown eyes.

Symbols

You can find these similar looking illustrations in the majority of Egypt-inspired games which does not mean that these ones are not notable.

The reels are right in the middle, with the game logo up above it. Most of the symbols are illustrated in a creative way. The ones that we are all familiar with like A, K, J, Q and 10 are colorful...

…while the regular set starts off with the God of the sky Horus, his eye known as the Eye of Horus, and the old Egyptian symbol "Ankh".

Now:

The special characters are a man that seems to have an appearance of "Indiana Jones”, Anubis the God of the afterlife, and Tutankhamun, a young and prematurely deceased pharaoh.

Betting Options and Functions

This video slot has a typical 5 reel, 3-row layout. It has 20 pay-lines.

The maximum amount that can be staked is €50, while the minimum would be €0.05.

If we are not counting in the special symbols like the adventurer and the Anubis one, the biggest payout would be from Horus, followed by Ankh and his blue eye, while the lowest would be from J, Q and number 10.

The Auto-play button is also included.

Features

To receive additional spins, 3 or more Scatter symbols would need to land anywhere on the reels simultaneously. The Tutankhamun character can award you with...

…12 extra rotations!

 During the feature, an alternate set of reels is used with some additional symbols, such as the "Stacked Man" and the "Stacked Wild".

And the BEST part is:

 The player can unlock yet another 12 spins if the luck wields it!

The Wild symbol, or Anubis, can replace for any of the signs except for the Scatter one. Now, the "Stacked Symbol", or Indiana Jones looking guy, can be stacked in the regular gameplay with 2 or 3 of his characters on each reel. But that is not all:

During the "Free Spin" feature he can be stacked up to 15 times.

Another great thing is a mini gambling game. When a win occurs, it is possible to press the "gamble" button. There are black and red cards to choose from. By selecting the correct one facing downward, players can double the amount x2!

Our Take

The overall impression is more than positive. When you take the great design, as well as the bonus attributes that are provided, the game is more than satisfactory.

If you enjoyed playing, there are similarly themed installments available out there to pick from. We would recommend it for all who appreciate a well-thought-out concept and appreciate the mysteries of the ancients.
