Giza Nights: Hold and Win Slot Features

The paytable offers 8 pay symbols, with 4 low-paying and 4 high-paying symbols. The low-paying symbols are card ranks from Jacks to Aces, and they all pay 2x your bet for five-of-a-kind. Then, there are scepters, ankhs, eyes, and Horus symbols. Horus symbols are worth the most, and you’ll get 10x your bet for a full set.

There are also Wilds, Scatters, Moon Bonus symbols, and Boost symbols. Wild symbols can cover entire reels. Scatters trigger the Free Spins feature, while Moon Bonus symbols and Boost symbols can lead you to the biggest wins.

Moving on to the gameplay, there is the Boost feature that is triggered by landing a Boost symbol together with any Moon Bonus symbol. This collects all Moon Bonus symbols in view for an instant win. Boost symbols can appear only on the middle reel during the base game and during free spins, though they can show up anywhere during the Hold and Win feature.

To trigger the Hold and Win feature, you have to find 6 or more Moon Bonus symbols. You’ll get 3 respins to start with, and each new symbol resets your tally back to 3. Respins continue until your tally is depleted or until you fill the entire board with symbols. Then, you’ll collect all the symbols and return back to the base game.

There are Mystery Moon Bonus symbols and Jackpot Moon Bonus symbols. Mystery Moon Bonus symbols automatically transform into the latter, and there are 3 jackpots that you can win this way: Mini, Minor, and Major, worth 20x, 50x, and 150x your bet, respectively. Filling the entire board with symbols nets you the Grand jackpot, worth 5,000x your bet!

The Extra Bonus feature can trigger the Hold and Win feature at random even via just one Moon Bonus symbol.

Finally, there’s the Free Spins feature that you can activate by landing 3 Scatter symbols. You’ll receive 8 free spins with possible retriggers, and there are no low pays on the reels during free spins.

Review Summary

This Hold and Win game is an excellent example of how much fun these slots can be.
