Pharao's Riches

A slot from Gamomat and has an Egyptian theme with 5 reels, 3 rows, and up to 30 paylines. When I say up to it’s because you can actually choose how many paylines you want to play with , 10, 20 or all 30. The min bet for this slow is 0.10 if you are only playing 10 paylines. You gotta love slots that let you choose how many lines you want to play with.

What sets this slot apart from others is that while you do need 3 scatters at least to trigger the free spins feature, if you do happen to get 4 scatters then you start with 25 free games instead of 10, but then it jumps to a massive 100 free spins if you get a 5 scatter trigger. You can also retrigger the feature.

My sessions with this slot involved doing spins and spins trying to get a feature but it didn’t show up however some base wins did show up along the way as one would expect but nothing greater than 10x.

The music and sound effects are suitable for an Egyptian them slot, having it on is almost a must and it is gentle to listen to without it being annoying at all. When you get a double scatter tease the slot will play a tune as the chance for a 3rd scatter is being teased.

The slot like all Gamomat does include the gamble card feature and the risk ladder feature, the card feature is better than the risk ladder by a mile.

The slot comes with a decent 96.1% RTP at it’s max setting and that is what luckily played with but because there weren’t any fatures triggered the session ended up with under 50% RTP.

The scatters don’t pay anything except give you a free spins feature trigger. There is no bonus buy if you want to skip the base game at all which can be an issue for some players as getting a feature can take ages.

The number of games themed on Pharaohs, Cleopatra, or on Ancient Egypt is really mind boggling. Many players have expressed their boredom over such games, but for me, I’m not bored of them, just not interested in them anymore. Partly also because I have never gotten any big win on any of such games. Play them occasionally, yes, but play them regularly, no.

Pharao’s Riches by Gamomat is one more of such games. Nope, it is not a ‘Book’ kind of game with expanding and scattering symbols, but a straight forward game with stacked symbols in play and with only one feature game to offer. As usual, this Gamomat game can be played on 10, 20 or 30 paylines, as you wish, but the lesser lines would mean smaller wins. There’s absolutely no win multiplier in the game at all, not even for the free spins, and the Diamond Wild symbol does not even double any wins with it. Not only that, both the Wild and Scatter symbols are non-paying. That sucks!

Landing 3, 4 or 5 of the Pyramid Scatter symbols would award 10, 25 or 100 free spins, and more free spins can be retriggered, although not that easily. I didn’t get any during my few sessions on this game. The Diamond Wild symbol is stacked on the reels during the free spins play, but appears only singularly in the base game. The absence of win multipliers also means that any win would mostly be small ones, unless you can get the Pharao symbols on all 30 paylines for the maximum possible single win of 1500x. That’s really not much for a 30 paylines game, so it’s not attractive at all.

My first few separate sessions on Pharao’s Riches didn’t go well at all, and I couldn’t even get a 50x win. It was only in my most recent play that I managed to get a nice 249x win from the free spins, but after getting that win, I quickly made my exit, hahaha. Maybe I’ll come back one of these days for a few more plays on this game, but then again, maybe not.
