Play Fire of Egypt for Free

Fire of Egypt adopts a betting limit on this game. The maximum bet for a spin is capped at 10 euros, which should be more than enough. There is also a minimum stake of 0.05 euros.

This is a rather standard Merkur Gaming slot game and thus should be very simple to get your head around. All you need to do is match at least three symbols across one of its 25 paylines. However, there is an opportunity to win larger rewards if you match four or five of these symbols over the payline.

Once you place your stake on the game, simply press spin and the reels will start spinning. You also have the option to sit back and take the game in via the auto play option.

The obvious theme of the game is obviously ancient Egypt and pharaohs. Merkur have done this by capturing various relics and imagery from a time long forgotten. The graphics on this game keep well within the tone of ancient Egypt and are done to a high standard with crisp imagery and subtle tones. But in all honesty, while the graphics might be nice, they are still rather standard.

Unlike most games, Fire of Egypt doesn't have any free spins or bonuses of that kind, sadly. Although what they lack in bonuses they make up in a hefty jackpot, routed in how much you wager and what symbol you get. The maximum you can win is x200 your original stake. If you win the jackpot and you put down one euro then you would win 200 euros. This is becoming an ever-popular way to give a jackpot without actually stating how much you can receive. In effect, the jackpot is totally in your hands.

The first group of reel symbols consists of the usual card icons, that is to say the Jack, Queen, King and Ace. Their low rewards are compensated by the fact that they appear often on the reels during the game. The two Scepters also belong to this category of symbols. One final trick worth knowing is that if you manage to fill the entire screen with the same card symbol, the winnings triggered by those multiple combinations will be multiplied by two instantly.

Needless to say that the rest of the paytable is more interesting both in terms of design and rewards. So keep your eyes peeled for the Fan, Nefertiti’s and King Tutankhamun’s Masks. A few combinations of these icons are enough to make you significantly richer.

Fire of Egypt is a solid game in some aspects. It’s a familiar and captivating theme which send players the past on an epic journey. That being said, the graphics within this game leave a lot to the imagination and could be greatly improved with a bit of tweaking.

Having a percentage based jackpot system also seems a lot like the easy way out and we think could deter people from playing it, driving customers in the arms of fixed jackpot games.

With a little practice, and especially if you are fascinated by ancient Egypt, you might be able to overlook some of these issues, though.
