Egyptian Gems: Rise of Pharaoh / Rise of Queen
HOW THE ADVANTAGE WORKS:
- Egyptian Gems features orbs that contain credit prizes. The orbs first appear in a queue located to the right of the main character above the reels. Every time a pyramid symbol lands on the reels, the bottom orb in the queue drops down into the empty sixth reel on the same row that the pyramid symbol landed. The orbs then move to the left one position on every spin. If an orb lands on top of a pyramid symbol, the player wins that credit prize. When an orb is triggered, the game may award the Inner Reel Feature, which will add a multiplier to the credit prize, award a jackpot prize or trigger the free games bonus.
- Orbs in the first reel will move out of play on the next spin, so do not count those.
- Any yellow orbs either directly on the reels or in the bottom position of the upcoming queue.
- Two yellow orbs anywhere in the upcoming queue.
- Four red orbs.
- Six orbs of any color (not for their credit prizes, but for the increased chances of triggering the free games bonus).
Additional notes
- This is a high variance game, as the orbs are difficult to trigger. You should expect to lose money most of the time, but make up for it when you trigger the free games bonus or a big multiplier.
- Yellow orbs contain the largest credit prizes, red orbs the second largest and blue orbs the smallest.
- The blue orbs are basically worthless for their credit prizes. But every time an orb is triggered, you have a chance to enter the free games bonus. So there is value in having a lot of orbs, even if they contain small credit values.
- You have a chance to get the Inner Reel Feature every time an orb is triggered. The Inner Reel Feature may award a multiplier to the credit prize (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x or 50x), the major or grand jackpot, or the free games bonus.
- The credit prizes on the orbs aren’t revealed until the orbs drop into play from the upcoming queue.
- If multiple pyramid symbols land in the same row, the orb credit prize will get multiplied by the number of pyramids in that row when it drops into play from the queue.
- The orbs don’t disappear after you trigger them, so it’s possible to win the credit prize multiple times.
- Like other Gaming Arts machines, it’s possible to check for plays without putting in a ticket. If you tap the menu icon in the lower left of the screen, you can use the up-and-down arrows to cycle through the bet levels.
