Egypt Sky is a 40-payline video slot operating on the Euro Games Technology software platform. The game possesses an expanding wild in the form of the famous symbol called ‘Ankh’, and the game’s scatter features the Egyptian Landscape. Players are invited to try this Egypt-themed slot on this page for free or select any of the Euro Games Technology casinos from the listings to play the game for real money.
Before visiting the pyramids of Ancient Egypt, players should adjust their bet. Both the minimum and the maximum coin size is 1. Clicking on any of the 5 fixed bets under the reels will immediately start turning the reels and the “Start” button initiates the game, as well. In order to spin the reels for a preset number of times without interruption, players should click the “Autoplay” button.
Pressing the “Gamble” button leads players to the Gamble feature, wherein they can increase their sum. If they guess the colour of the face-down card correctly, the amount is doubled. If they guess wrong, however, the feature ends and the gamble amount is lost. The game can also be stopped at any time, allowing players to save their winnings by clicking the “Collect” button.
When 3 or more scatters spin into the view, Free Spins with a Wild Feature are awarded. 3 scatters lead to 3 Free Spins, 4 scatters equal 5 Free Spins and 5 scatters will grant players 7 Free Spins. During the Free Spin round, when the wild symbol appears on reels 2-4, it expands onto all the positions of the reels and stays expanded until the end of the Free Spin feature. Free Spins cannot be re-triggered.
The game possesses a randomly triggered Jackpot Cards Mystery bonus, activated while any Jackpot Cards stamped game is played. Every mystery jackpot is illustrated by a card suit: clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades. Players then select cards from the pick field containing 12 face-down cards until 3 matching card suit symbols are revealed. The Jackpot Cards Mystery level corresponding to the revealed suit will be awarded.

The truth is that I cannot complain about slots developed by the Bulgarian company Euro Games Technology - EGT, many of them have let me some good profits, and although it seemed I had no much luck with "Egypt Sky" so far, it seems the bad streak has paused. This slot is somewhat different from others produced by this company primarily because it has four instead of three rows. One of its most charming features and of frequent activation is its expandable wild, which operates only as substitute for all symbols except the scatter, and its best expression is when it appears simultaneously on reels 2, 3, and 4 ensuring certainly a big win, sometimes there are two or one at the same time, but in these cases the winnings depends more highly of the position and rank of symbols involved in the respective line formation.
The round of free spins is another story, while getting reels wild does not seem so exceedingly difficult, I cannot say the same for the free round, which can be triggered with 3, 4 or 5 scatters, and it is curious, since this game has an additional row you might think that there is more likely to be obtained 3 simultaneous scatter than in a normal slot, but actually it is not; however in my last session with Egypt Sky I did not miss the lack of this feature so much, but the truth is that who does not like a round of 3, 5, or 7 free spins where every wild symbol expands throughout the reel and is frozen until the end of the round; the truth is that this round looks great but I would not put all my hopes in its activation.
About the paytable I can only say that the rates contained therein are fair to my view, since it is needed to consider that it is a slot with 4 rows that only has 8 different symbols, and the fewer number of symbols better is our expectation, but recognizing that 40 paylines is the minimum number used for this type of slots, the best games of similar characteristics have 100 paylines and up to 1024, a fact that dramatically increases our chances of winning, but that's not the case here.
Although this game is not so popular among players who play most of the time on the internet, I have reference that its acceptance in land based casinos is quite good, and as far as I'm concerned, Egypt Sky is a slot machine with potential that is worth to try.
