Coins of Ra Slots
In Egyptian mythology, the sun god Ra was the chief of the minor deities. Soaring across the sky from day-to-day, he was consumed by the Serpent Apophis night-after-night before being regurgitated into a new day reborn. In keeping with many of the legendary motives of Betsoft Gaming, Coins of Ra is an ode to the myths of ancient Egypt. You will explore the dark, deep sarcophagi prevalent in that era of Egypt, which are displayed in a 3 by 3 video slot with the Classic Slots-related 3 reel set-up.
Get ready for the rapid pace of potential wins, as you rack up free spins using the scatter icon. As for special bonus features, keep an eye out for the Hold & Win Feature; you will know what it is when a multitude of sparkly precious gems show up mid-game as the reels spin. With 3 reels and 5 pay lines, expect a win rate indicative of the Return to Player value of 96.18%. In conjunction with this is a Hit Frequency of 31.07% on this high volatility pokey.
More On the Hold & Win Feature
In order to actually trigger the Hold & Win special feature, you need to get lucky enough to have the Raw Bonus as well as the regular Bonus icons show up simultaneously – they act as keys which unlock the former. The explosion of color on the screen becomes even more vibrant when you do happen to win, and you'll enjoy a trip down the Blue Now River while the Rock Bonus icons deliver your prizes from the symbol combination payouts on the reels to your account. The top prize in this particular section is the Chest of Gold: whatever's inside varies, but is guaranteed to be a financial windfall.
To get into the Hold & Win Section requires at least three Bonus icons and at least one single Rock Bonus icon. In addition to all the other potential prizes you can garner from this section, you automatically also receive three respin opportunities. While the respins are in effect, if a Raw Bonus icon also shows up it will act as a Sticky Wild by locking in place; then, the regular Bonus icons are bumped off the reels in order to make space for any incoming higher-paying bonus symbols. Your spin counter will then move back to three, and you will receive extra chances to rack up the wins.
There’s a Lot More in Coins of Ra Slots
The Chest of Gold shows up in the regular/base game, and is the chief among the symbols in Coins of Ra Slots. Other symbols include a Golden Pyramid with turquoise gems appearing on each side; there's also a citrulline precious gem encased in a gold amulet, a golden statue of the Egyptian God Anubis, a triangular-shaped Emerald jam encased in gold, and elaborate Eye of Horus symbol, another symbol that looks to be a gem-encrusted Isis, and a gold-encrusted Ruby.
Although all of these payout well depending on the symbol combination you receive (from three of a kind to five of a kind for the most), the Chest of Gold is the one that really revs up the gameplay in the Hold & Win Special Feature Bonus rounds. All of the wild symbols are capable of showing up on all three reels in the game, and will substitute to help complete a winning combination – the only symbols for which the wild cannot make a substitution are the Ra Bonus and the natural Bonus.
