Gold Hit: Shrine of Anubis

Gold Hit: Shrine of Anubis is an Ancient Egyptian-themed slot developed by Ash Gaming, a subsidiary of Playtech. The game features a unique 5-reel layout with varying symbol counts per reel (4-4-6-6-8), offering players 4,608 ways to win on each spin.

The slot's visual design transports players to the mystical land of Ancient Egypt. The background showcases windswept desert sands, palm trees, and imposing pyramids, creating an immersive atmosphere. The reels are adorned with symbols that reflect the Egyptian theme, including classic A-9 card ranks as low-paying symbols, and premium symbols such as lotuses, ankhs, birds, snakes, and Anubis himself.

The game features 11 regular symbols, divided into low and high-paying categories. The premium symbols, when matched in combinations of five, award payouts ranging from 0.8x to 5x the stake. All symbols can appear stacked on the reels, increasing the potential for multiple wins on a single spin.

The game includes a wild symbol that substitutes for other regular symbols to help form winning combinations.

Bonus Features:

• Coin Symbols: These display random cash values from 0.5x to 10x the bet and are available on any reel. When a Coin symbol lands, it locks in place for 3 spins.
• Red Scarab Coins: These special coins reveal one of four jackpot prizes when collected:
  • Mini Jackpot: 20x the bet
  • Minor Jackpot: 50x the bet
  • Major Jackpot: 200x the bet
  • Mega Jackpot: 500x the bet
• Collect Coin: This symbol collects the values of all other Coins locked on the same reel. If a new Coin lands on a reel with a Collect Coin, its value is also collected.
• Free Spins: Triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 Bonus Symbols (scatters), awarding 10, 12, or 15 Free Spins respectively. During this feature, all Coin symbols remain held for the entire bonus round.
• Bonus Wheel: Activated during Free Spins by filling a reel entirely with cash symbols. The wheel determines a multiplier value (2x to 10x) applied to all cash values on that reel.

The game's high volatility and substantial max win potential of 8,270x the bet make it particularly appealing to high-risk players. The innovative Gold Hit mechanics, combined with the popular Ancient Egyptian theme, create a unique and engaging slot experience.
