Online gambling games developer BetSoft has added a new online slot to its Classic range, launching Legend of the Nile.
The theme, as the title suggests, is based on ancient Egypt – a perennial favourite with players and therefore developers, it appears. It supports a 6×6 grid format cascading reels slot machine, featuring exploding wins and an array of bonus elements titled God Trails.
These feature traditional gods of the pharaohs Isis, Ra and Anubis, and act as meters that advance with each cluster win involving each individual God symbol.
The Isis Trail progresses by one with every winning Isis icon cluster win. The progress of the Isis Trail persists through game sessions. When the Trail of Isis is complete, Free Spins are awarded, and each Free Spin provides a progressively larger payout.
The Ra Trail is reset with each spin, but conversely it completes much faster than the other Trails. This dynamic Trail can result in Free Spins, a 400x stake win and a progressive Jackpot
The Anubis Trail, like the Isis Trail, advances by one with every winning Anubis cluster win. This Trail’s progress level also persists between game sessions. When the Anubis Trail has been completed, Free Spins are awarded and the Anubis symbol spikes in value and shows up more frequently during those Free Spins.
Dan Cooper, BetSoft’s head of product development, said Monday:
“Legend of the Nile is a BetSoft game quite unlike any other. Created exclusively for our Shift platform, the game takes the traditional, familiar Egyptian theme and updates it for modern i-gaming. What we’ve done with the God Trails stands out in terms of innovation, giving players three separate potential bonus options during play that will keep things fresh and exciting.”
