Coins of Egypt is another slot with the ancient Egypt theme. Is there any more common theme for videoslots? Fortunately, NetEnt offers a lot of unique features, which is why the game still stands out from the crowd. With Pharaoh Coins, you can win on coin icons while winning on paylines and the game's reel position undeniably has an elegant angle.

Betsson casinos were the first to get the Coins of Egypt game. They launched it in March 2018. Then NetEnt decided that all their casinos should get in on the fun, so they took the castles from the game and launched that for all their casinos in October 2018.

About Coins of Egypt slot

A very brief look at the game screen suffices to show that the designers at NetEnt have put in a lot of extra time to finish the game. We have to say that NetEnt, with Coins of Egypt, raises the bar for graphics and animations in new online slots!

Thanks to the exquisite graphics, we are ready to be indulgent about the choice of theme. If not, we think game developers ought to use a little more imagination and not keep evicting from the premises of video games Egyptian gods and pharaohs, who, in our opinion, have just about run their course.

Who plays the main roles, then? Symbols of gods, like Anubis, Isis, Wadjet, and Bastet, take center stage on the reels. We can only hope that they use their divine and magical powers to help us score some profits!

What distinguishes the game from other slots with an Egyptian theme is its somewhat dark tone. It is evident that NetEnt intended to inject a little more drama and suspense into their game, and we believe they have done a splendid job realizing this.

Stakes and winnings

The game Coins of Egypt has 20 fixed paylines throughout its five reels and three rows. Before starting to spin, you must decide on the value of each coin and the number of coins to play per line. If you opt for the minimum bet ($2), you play with 10-cent coins at BET level 1. Your maximum bet per spin is $2000, achieved with a $10 coin value and 10 coins per line.

In the profit plan, the highest paying icon pays 1,500 coins for five in a row. Hit this icon full screen, and you win 30,000 coins, which is also the game's max win.

A maximum payout of 30,000 coins isn't that high, even for NetEnt. Coins of Egypt is a slot that doesn't seem to have a huge win potential. For many other slots, such an order means that the winnings will be quite frequent. In Coins of Egypt, however, a greater focus is on medium-sized wins (approximately 10x-20x the BET) and it is the unique coin win feature (more on that below) that gives you these.

Egypt Coins RTP is extremely high, almost as high as 96.97% can be. Just this figure makes the game more interesting than a vast majority of other slots, especially other titles that have a similar theme.

Game features

Egypt's Coins has a broad range of exciting special features that can yield big wins, including wild symbols, scatter symbols, and free spins. This slot also has a unique way of rewarding players that involves coins. The game is designed to let players collect coins in both the main game and the bonus round.

Wilds

The jokers on Coins of Egypt's reels represent Golden Scarabs (beetles). They are traditional substitute symbols. While also providing high winnings on their own, in fact, the game's wild pay twice as much as the for otherwise best-paying icon.

Pharaoh Coin Wins

A feature that is entirely new not only for NetEnt slots but for online slots in general is Pharaoh Coin Wins. It is high time that a game developer came up with something innovative, and we are not surprised that it is NetEnt, which has a history of boldness in pushing boundaries, taking that plunge.

Almost every base game spin results in 1-3 coins appearing on reels 1-3. Coins will then reveal values that range from 2-15 times the bet.

The values of the coins are added together automatically, and if you should happen to get a pharaoh symbol on the fifth reel, the total will be added to your gaming account. You can win up to 45 times your bet with this feature, whether you win on the lines or not. Of course, hitting a combination is preferable!

Free spins

Free spins. This round can feel a bit complicated, especially when you first play it. There are a few elements to experience. So, wash your glasses, and we'll break it down!

To access the free spins bonus, obtain a scatter on reels 1, 3, and 5. The scatter symbolizes a selection of golden rings and is very visible—especially since it can't be missed if you're playing on any other setting than the "no boulders" setting. Once you've managed to get the scatter onto the reels, the game will count all the coins that are visible on the screen. They'll be placed into the treasure chests that are clearly marked above the screen.

After you finish, you can play an "unlimited" number of Free Spins. What is meant is that you are allowed to play until you have hit three identical seal symbols on the fifth reel.

Three SEALs correspond to the color and name of the chests. They are Ruby Eagle, Emerald Snake, and Golden Cat.

After you've activated your free spins, any coins that appear on reels 1-3 will be transferred into your treasure chests—if they land there, that is—according to the following scheme:

  • Eagle Ruby 1-Reel-value is 2-4 times that of the bet.
  • Reel 2-Emerald Snake-value ranging from 2 to 5 times the wager
  • Reel 3 – Golden Cat–pays between 3 and 10 times your bet.

Once you have collected the third sigil icon of the same kind, the chest linked to that sigil will swing open. Its contents are for you to collect, and that chest can hold a truly copious sum of coins. Through the first step of the free spins bonus, however, you are always assured a win. Let us pause for station identification with a list of sigil icons and chests.

Symbols

The sigils on the reels of Coins of Egypt are as well made as they can be. They are placed on boulders and they are all animated so that they kind of "jump out" of the screen when you hit home a win. Besides the wild and scatter (see below), there are five high-win sigils and five low-win sigils. A pile of ancient Egyptian deities together with a scorpion make up the best pay icons. The other five sigils are in the form of different-sized beetles.

Summary

When considering innovation and the amazing graphics and sound presentation, Coins of Egypt is one of the greatest new machines we have seen for a long time. And that is NetEnt's struggle, a problem they have had for many years. The issue? Quite low volatility. Most of what you win in the base game tends to be on the modest side, and there are no guarantees that the free spins will deliver the bigger payoffs that are necessary to make the overall experience truly great.

Egyptian Coins can be recommended for smaller game boxes that need to stretch slot entertainment for a longer period of time without the box office running out. High rollers who are looking for high risks that can lead to significant wins should avoid this altogether.
