Ramesses Riches is an old game, as with most of the other Egyptian-themed games from other games providers. Some used the same name Ramesses, others used Pharaohs for their game titles, but are all basically of the same theme. If it isn't the King that is the main character, then it would be the Queen, Cleopatra being the more commonly used. The only lacking aspect of these games tend to be the quality of their graphics, which aren't quite up to today's contemporary standards, so newer players may not quite like its graphics quality.
Ramesses is the Wild symbol, paying 5000x the line bet for 5 of him, and doubles all wins with it. The Ankh, the symbol of Eternal Life, is the Scatter symbol, paying 100x the total bet for 5 of them. 3 or more of these Ankhs trigger the Free Spins game, whereby each Ankh awards 4 free spins and with all wins tripled. More Free Spins games can be retriggered. The Queen, or presumably Cleopatra, pays 1000x, the Panther 250x, and the rest paying from 200x to 100x, all per line bet for 5 of each kind. Not the best of paytable, just an average one but on the lower side.
There aren't any special feature or bonus games in Ramesses Riches, typical of older games, so players have to make do with having only the Free Spins game feature. But this is not a bad thing at all, as it keeps the game simple and the payouts focused. The more features a game has, the more diversified the payouts would be, mostly resulting in diluted winning amounts, as compared to singularly focused ones. But of course, everything depends entirely on how well the paytable has been laid out. Just think of the game Dead Or Alive and you will realise just how well a game with only the Free Spins game as its feature can actually perform and be a big hit.
As far as Ramesses Riches goes, it cannot ever be as alive as its western counterpart. The paytable doesn't provide for it, but this doesn't mean that the game isn't good. I would say that Ramesses Riches is a fairly balanced game, in the sense that it doesn't eat credits like a hungry lion, but neither does it throw out huge wins. My plays on this game haven't brought me any withdrawal win so far, even after all these years, but then again, I don't play it as I do with my other favourite games. My best win on Ramesses Riches was just under 70x my bet amount. Not a lot, but I wasn't expecting a lot either.
