Mercy of the Gods

Anubis is on each side of the reels in Mercy of the Gods' pretty pleasing visual design, which is located at the entrance to an old Egyptian pyramid. Other symbols on the reels include Tutankhamen, scarab beetles, and Horus falcons in addition to ancient Egyptian-styled A, K, Q, and J royals.

Also present and the most lucrative symbol, the female explorer will pay out 2, 5.5, or 80 times your bet when three, four, or five appear in a payline.

The scatter and bonus symbols are the only symbols that the wild symbol can replace; it can occur on any reels. The Gift of Life Re-Spins feature is activated if 1 or more wild symbols appear on the reels; on each re-spin, each wild symbol then moves 1 row down until all wilds have vanished from the reels. You will receive more free spins if more wilds show up.

Mercy of the Gods also has a Gift of Double Wilds feature, which expands to give you a totally wild reel if a wild lands behind another wild during the Gift of Life Re-Spins feature. With each re-spin, a wild reel advances one row, reactivating the Gift of Life Re-Spins feature.

When you get three or more Eye of Horus scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, the Free Spins feature is activated. If you get three, four, or five of these symbols, you'll receive five, eight, or twelve free spins, respectively. Keep an eye out for wilds because they grow to create a wild reel, which then initiates the Gift of Life Re-Spins bonus.

The Gift of Wealth Jackpot feature, which may be accessed by collecting three or more bonus symbols in either the main game or the Gift of Life Re-Spins feature, is the last one. Then, all amassed bonus symbols are randomly positioned on the reels. You then get three spins; if one or more bonus symbols appear on the reels, you will receive an additional three spins.

The secret is to get additional bonus symbols, which stick around on the reels until the feature is over. Each one includes a chance to win a cash prize of between 10 and 200 times your wager. In addition to the cash prizes, the Minor Jackpot of 20 times your wager is yours if you can fill one row with bonus symbols.

You'll win the Major Jackpot, which is 100 times your wager, if you fill two rows (plus winnings from every bonus symbol). All three rows must be filled in order to win the progressive Mega Jackpot!

You might think Mercy of the Gods is just another slot machine with an ancient Egyptian theme, but it actually offers something unique. For example, I especially enjoy the Gift of Life Re-Spins feature and the ensuing wild reels, which can result in some substantial payouts.
