Slot Details

Rise of Horus is a video slot with five reels, three rows and 243 ways as default. The format will change to a 5×5 size with 3,125 ways in the Respin feature and further to x 5×7 size with 16,807 ways in the Free Spins round. You can delve into ancient Egyptian mythology on desktop and mobile from 0.10 to 100 credits per spin. The game has medium to high volatility with an RTP of 96.04%. To our knowledge, Evoplay does not offer customizable RTP settings.

Loading the game will take you to ancient Egypt with the reels set in front of pyramids surrounded by sprawling waterfalls. The game window is held in solid stone columns and guarded by two Horus birds. The reels are dominated by various deities, all held on singular stone blocks while a suspenseful soundtrack provides the fitting audio to the action on the reels.

The pay symbols start at the low end with hieroglyphic cats, hawks, snakes, and lions, awarding 1.2x to 3x your stake for a single five of a kind. They are complemented by four Egyptian gods, and I am taking some sort of guess here now, but they could be the cat goddess Bastet, Anubis, Maahes and Horus. Hit five across the reels to win 6x to 20x your bet. Logically, the Eye of Horus is the wild symbol, appearing on the three centre reels only and substituting for any regular pay symbol. The golden scarab acts as the scatter

Rise of Horus Slot Features

Egyptian-themed slots are usually suspenseful creations with elaborate animations and nailbiting features. Evoplay’s take meets and exceeds that profile as the developer packed ample modifiers and bonus features into their Rise of Horus slot. They also made sure that they trigger often enough to avoid boredom with the free spins having an average frequency of 1:160 spins while any payout is happening roughly once in every three spins. As usual, we will take you through each of them in the best chronological order.

Keep a proverbial eye on the two Horus birds during the base game as they can come alive at any time during the base game to trigger the Horus Gift modifier. They will randomly select up to three low-value symbols on reels two, three and four and transform them into wild symbols for the current spin.

And there is more. Keep a second proverbial eye on the Glowing Reel in the middle of the game window. Landing a scatter anywhere on it in the base game will trigger the Respin feature. The reels will rise to increase to a 5×5 size with 3,125 ways and a respin is awarded with three centre reels turning into Glowing Reels. Hit one or more scatters anywhere on them on the respin and the game window will further expand to the maximum 5×7 size with all five reels becoming Glowing Reels. A second and final respin is then awarded.

All scatters landing on Glowing Reels at any time during the Respin feature will be collected to determine the number of Free Spins. The bonus round is played on the maximum grid with 16,807 ways, however, scatters are removed for the duration of the feature and thus cannot be retriggered. Before the free spins start, one pay symbol is randomly selected to appear in stacks of three symbols, providing extra potential to score big wins.

Final Verdict

Evoplay is in the process of acquiring licences from the MGA Malta and the UK Gambling Commission, which will allow them to extend their footprint into regulated markets. Players will surely look forward to spinning the reels on slots like Rise of Horus. It is an impressive game with stunning visuals and elaborate animations. Not only that, but it is also jampacked with ample modifiers and features that have the potential to land big wins on any spin. Well worth a reel journey to ancient Egypt.
