Eye of Horus

Ancient Egypt is alive and well, at least when you are travelling in Egypt. If you look around, you’ll see the signs: on the national air carrier logo, in restaurants and hotels and in shops - you will definitely come across the falcon head of Horus, god of power and child of Osiris and Isis. The left eye of this god is said to represent the moon, while Horus’ eye bestows protection, health and restoration. There are plenty of other symbols in Egyptian history, but this game sees Horus as worthy of his own dedicated online pokie title. Introducing Eye of Horus, an Egyptian-themed video slot like no other, with its own take on ancient myths and legends and a chance to win incredible riches, if you’re lucky enough and Horus is looking down on you with favour. Take a look at this interesting pokies game with Wildz Casino.

Design

Loads of game designers have put their talents into action by compiling ancient Egyptian-themed games and Merkur Gaming joins their ranks. They’ve got quite a reputation for developing this theme, with titles such as Pyramids of the Nile, Flames of Egypt, Heart of the Nile and Cluster Gods, among others. Eye of Horus takes you on a new adventure into the past, deep into a dusty temple in the desert, where the reels are hemmed in by carved pillars and dim lighting from flaming torches. The symbols are set on beige parchment, highlighting their bright colours that include regal gold and bright lapis lazuli blue. Peering out among these: the all-powerful Eye of Horus itself.

Gameplay

The game starts off in a standard format for an online pokie, in which you press spin and hope that the 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines settle to produce winning combinations of symbols from left to right. The falcon-headed figure of Horus is the Wild, an expanding symbols that can bring riches, standing in for every other symbol except the golden altar Scatter symbol. There are regular, small base game wins to be found.

Bonuses and features

The bonus round in Eye of Horus, if you are lucky enough to achieve one, is bound to make you sit up straight. To get there, you need to land three golden altar Scatters anywhere on the grid during spin, with this taking you into the Free Spins bonus round. You will get a minimum of 12 spins, and, in this round, the Horus Wild symbol may expand to cover the whole reel, increasing your chances of obtaining those lucrative combinations. The Wild may also choose a symbol at random for the next spin that will multiply wins should it land anywhere during that spin. It’s pretty eciting to see the action unfold, provided that you have the patience and bankroll to see it happen. For players who prefer a bit of risk, there’s also the opt-in gamble feature (not available in the autospin feature) that allows you to gamble on base game wins, with the option of climbing a win ladder or choosing red/black/card suits. This can boost your winnings, although you could potentially lose the win for that round, too, should your guess not be a lucky one.
