Almighty Ramses II

Five reels with three rows each, medium volatility, and free spins. It doesn’t seem like Almighty Ramses II slot has much to offer that wouldn’t already be out there in many different formats. The theme has been sucked dry of inspiration a dozen times over already so it is quite hard to say if this game brings anything new to the table. Read below for a full list of features, or simply try the game for free.

Theme

The sound effects are very simplistic here, and not really fit for a modern slot. The time when you could just copy the clicks and clacks out of the old machines are long gone, which hasn’t really seemed to have sunk into the consciousness of EGT producers. The graphics, in turn, are a bit more modern and add some value to the theme. Unfortunately, in this case, half of the symbols are just plain old playing cards. The rest of the screen shows exactly what you would expect from a game set in Ancient Egypt.

Betting Options and Functions

The game gives you five options for possible bets: 20, 40, 100, 200, or 400 credits per spin. The chosen denomination probably further influences the actual cost of each spin. The twenty paylines are fixed, and the reel setup is the usual five times three. There are nine normal symbols plus the scatter and the wild.

The game offers quite a high maximum win, being 1000 times your line bet. However, this comes with the cost of most other wins being quite negligible. Three symbols are needed to claim a prize, and the symbols must always connect from left to right via the paylines. Scatters are the natural exception to this. The most wanted symbol here is the wild, which pays up to 5000 times your line bet. Given the medium volatility, you are most likely going to land the smaller wins over and over again.

Features

The game comes with four different jackpots, which are triggered completely at random. The jackpot game has the player picking among twelve cards until he picks three matching ones. The wins from these are quite nice, but also quite hard to land. The same feature is available in all other EGT games as well, so if this is of interest you might as well play one of their better-known slots such as Egypt Sky.

Three scatters pay out a few coins, and also launches the free spins feature. You’ll be granted ten spins and the moving symbols feature also gets activated. This means that any time the first reel is full of any single symbol and the same symbol is on any other position space in-between is filled with matching symbols. Having the 1st and 5th reel full of matching symbols would, therefore, result in a massive payout.

Our Take

The game is not all that good. Or rather, the theme has been done to death and there are similar games with much better gameplay features. Try something like Egyptian Heroes instead.
