Eye of the Storm Game Review

Eye of the Storm is a video slot machine game provided by Reel Kingdom and powered by Pragmatic Play. This game can be played either on mobile or desktop. 

Theme and Setting 

Eye of the Storm takes one back to the mystique and aura of ancient Egypt. Be immersed in hieroglyphics, images of pyramids, and more. 

Either go through harsh sandstorms or be blessed by the gods. There are only two ways about it. 

Graphics and Sound 

There is a lot to take in, both visual and sound when it comes to the theme of the game. The backdrop is a bustling ancient Egyptian city complete with obelisks and tall edifices.

The board itself is played in front of a wall of hieroglyphics. The symbols represent popular and recognizable icons related to the theme. 

The soundtrack features instruments from that era, from drums and percussions to strings and winds. It is mixed with a few elements of synthesized fiddles, which comes in whenever a prize of a considerable amount is hit. 

Gameplay and Bonuses 

To play, just set a bet amount and click on the spin button by pressing the space or enter key. To win, at least three matching symbols must line up to form one of ten winning patterns on adjacent reels from left to right starting from the leftmost reel. 

• The WILD symbol – although appearing only on the inner reels, substitutes for all symbols except for SCATTER. It expands to fill the whole reel.
• The SCATTER symbol – aside from adding a multiplier to the winnings, also triggers the Free Spins Feature when three or more of them appear on a spin. This feature is progressive, which means that reel strips change as the level increases. 

What happens during the round is that a specific symbol gets replaced by another depending on the level. The level goes up when at least one WILD pharaoh appears. The WILD, as well as at least three SCATTER pyramids in a single spin, gives more free turns. The round ends once all spins have been consumed. 

The highest win is paid for every payline that is hit. A spin can have multiple winning paylines. Wins are multiplied by the base bet. The prize amount is capped at 10,000x of the initial bet. 

Clicking either the + or – button located beside the spin button changes the wager value. Pressing Autoplay gives the player the option to automate the game for a set number of spins. 

Is it ok to play Eye of the Storm?

The reported RTP of Eye of the Storm is 96.7%. 

The immersion alone gives the game high marks. Although gameplay can be quite bland and ordinary, the expanding WILD gives it a unique twist.
