Mysterious Egypt is another Egyptian-themed offering from Pragmatic Play. It was released in January 2021 on both mobile and desktop.
Theme and Setting
The prestige of ancient Egypt is on full display while players are looking to hit the jackpot on every spin. Themed icons are mixed with royal symbols, the former having a bigger winning value.
Graphics and Sound
The game’s audiovisuals are easy on the eyes; the graphics typical of an ancient Egypt-themed video slot. It has different sets of background music depending on what is happening in the game.
Gameplay and Bonuses
The game is a bit tricky at first, especially for those who are new to it. There is the mystery symbol that expands vertically when there are at least two of it in different reels. Aside from being rewarded money by getting at least three matching symbols in a row starting from the leftmost side, the mystery symbols add more to wins.
The Free Spins Feature is triggered when three or more pharaoh symbols are hit in a single attempt. That tile also acts as both SCATTER and WILD at the same time.
Closing
Mysterious Egypt has an easy-to-use toggle menu to customize certain aspects of the game. The game history shows previous runs.
Despite having only ten paylines, it has an RTP of 96.5% due to the mystery symbol mechanic. When it was tested for game review purposes (with a maximum bet and 100-spin Autoplay), five out of six runs generated a profit.
