We Explore the Egyptian Themed Jewel Scarabs Slot From Red Tiger Gaming!
Videoslots Casino has recently added Red Tiger Gamings newest Egyptian themed slot titled Jewel Scarabs to their casino which is a classic themed 9 payline high variance slot with a few new excting special features.
The Jewel Scarabs slot used a tried and tested Egyptian theme but with the introduction of special Wild Scatter symbols have added not only an exciting way to trigger the bonus round but also an exciting and potentially rewarding free spins bonus round.
The base game is fairly standard with just 9 paylines and the hit frequency of wins can feel quite low, the special scatters however which are required to trigger the bonus round also act as wild symbols, with the added twist that if they form part of a win these symbols will remain on the reels whilst moving to a new position on the next spin of the reels.
This means that whilst you can trigger the bonus round in the regular way of landing 3 symbols it is also possible to gradually land more of these WIld Scatters on the re-spins which adds a new twist to the gameplay.
Remember however that on each of these re-spins the Wild symbols must form part of the win to remain in play on the reels. Once the bonus round is triggered though these wild symbols remain on the reels for every free spin with the additional feature that a multiplier is added to them every time they form part of a win, the multiplier values can also be combined when they are on the same payline to produce some huge wins!
Overall it’s a simplistic little slot that still manages to produce lots of excitement given the limited number of free spins and potential growing multipliers.

Special Features
Scatter Wilds
The special scatter wilds symbols remain on the reels once they land in view on the reels and form part of a win, the symbol will move around randomly across the reels on the re-spin, with 3 scatter wilds required to trigger the bonus round.
Golden Spins – Free Spins
Once the bonus round has been triggered you are awarded 7 Golden Spins, the triggering scatter symbols remain on the reels for the duration of the bonus round.
When one of these symbols forms part of a win during the bonus round however a multiplier of +1 is added to it each time this occurs.
If more than one Scarab Multiplier appears on the same win line, they multiply by each other for even bigger wins, there is also a chance that additional Wild Scarabs can be added to the reels during this bonus round.

Overall Opinions
The Jewel Scarabs slot from Red Tiger Gaming is quite an enjoyable slot, whilst the gameplay is quite simplistic with just the main feature of moving scatter wilds and limited paylines, this slot really shines during the bonus round where rising multipliers are introduced and the fact that these can multiply together on paylines too.
In our playtests we had bonus rounds generally in the range of 20x stake to well over 200x stake, we didn’t see any of the extra added wilds that are shown in the promotional video however as this could really create some much bigger wins if they are added early into the bonus round.
Overall this is quite an enjoyable slot to play, possibly not as high variance as we initially expected but with a fairly regular bonus trigger helps keep this slot exciting to play.
