Eye Of Horus Jackpot King Review
Any player familiar with the successful and popular original Eye of Horus will not get too many surprises in this jackpot version. The biggest surprise is the weak theoretical returns. The RTP seems unnecessary low when only 0.38 % goes to feed the jackpot anway. Combine that with the brutal volatility, and you’re looking at a potential blood bath.
Audiovisually, the game is the same as all previous versions, and fans of the brick and mortar nostalgia can rejoice once again. It’s hard to see any good reason fans of the first game would be attracted to this version though. The original offered medium volatility, a solid RTP and the same potential. In Eye Of Horus Jackpot King you’re getting bled like a pig to chase a jackpot feature that might or might not trigger, and that most of the time will leave you with smaller consolation prizes anyway.
Eye Of Horus Jackpot King Features
You will land the Horus Wild Symbol on the 3 middle reels only, and it expands to cover the full reel whenever it lands. The wild will step in for all regular symbols to help you form winning combos, but it cannot step in for the scatter symbol.
You need to land at least 3 scatters anywhere on the same spin to trigger the game’s free spins bonus round. This gives you 12 free spins up front, but you can trigger extra spins by landing Horus Wilds during the feature. You get 1, 3 or 5 extra spins when you land 1, 2 or 3 Horus Wilds respectively, and Each Horus Wild will also upgrade the symbol tablets.
All the premium symbols are represented on stone tablets above the reels during the bonus round. The sun above Horus’ head comes alive, and a beam of light upgrades the lowest value symbol to the next tier symbol. Land another Hours Wild, and both of what’s now the lowest value symbol are upgraded to the third lowest symbol.
This goes on until the feature ends, or you have upgraded all symbols so only the highest value symbol can land on the reels. You will see all instances of the upgraded symbols flip into the new symbol on the reels, and this might lead to a new win calculation. Filling the reels with the top-paying Eye of Horus symbol lands you 500x your stake.
The Jackpot King feature is what makes this title stand out from all the other versions, and the feature will be triggered at random times during gameplay. You will then spin a reel set where only crowns and blanks will land. Collect crowns to climb a multiplier ladder that goes from 5x to 20x. Collect 15+ crowns to get to the very top of the ladder, which triggers the Wheel King progressive jackpot feature.
After each crown collecting spin, you will pick from a selection of the “king’s treasures”. This gives you 1 of 3 outcomes:
- Spin - gives you a new crown collecting spin.
- Collect - ends the feature, and your total win is summed up.
- Wheel King - takes you directly to the Jackpot Wheel feature.
The Jackpot Wheel consists of Big Win Multiplier segments and Progressive Jackpot segments. You are guaranteed to win something from this feature, in addition to whatever you racked up to get there.
The 200 Spins Eye Of Horus Jackpot King Experience
Nothing much happened for us in the base game, which is not uncommon in this type of game. We have included half a minute or so of the base game grind in the highlights video below, but after that it’s all about the bonus round. Skip to 0:40 if you don’t want to wait, as there is plenty to see after we trigger the free spins.
Review Summary
It was just a question of time before a jackpot version had to come, but not much else has been changed. It’s all about the expanding wilds in the base game, but it’s usually a longer walk in the desert before you trigger the bonus round. The symbol upgrade is nothing new, but it’s still an entertaining and potentially lucrative feature.
With Eye Of Horus Jackpot King you also get the extra layer of excitement running like an undercurrent in your system, as you never know when the Jackpot King feature will trigger. The price you pay is the rather low RTP of only 93.69 %, which might be too steep for some players. The max win potential is still 10,000x your stake, like it was in both the original game and the Megaways version.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Expanding wilds on reels 2, 3 and 4 | 93.69 % RTP is not very impressive |
| Bonus round with expanding wilds symbol upgrade | |
| High volatility and 10,000x max win potential | |
| Jackpot King feature with cash prizes and progressive jackpots |
