Yggdrasil Gaming, the leading publisher accelerating iGaming innovation has teamed up with Bang Bang Games to release a brand-new Egyptian-themed hit full of the mystery and anticipation slots players love, Pharaoh’s Gaze DoubleMax™.
The high volatility, 5-reel, 20 payline slot can see players win up to 15,000x their stake by way of Scarab Free Spins, Pharoah’s Gaze Wilds and Yggdrasil’s thrilling Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM), DoubleMax.
The DoubleMax feature sees a win multiplier double in value following every successful spin. Winning symbols are removed from the reels and a lucrative wild is added in its place, allowing for new opportunities to form winning paylines.
Whenever symbols land on the reels, there is a chance that a gem may follow with it. Once three gems are collected on a single reel, the Pharaoh’s Gaze Wilds feature will activate, generating one to three additional Wild symbols on that reel for the next three spins or cascades.
Landing three scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the Scarab Free Spins feature, awarding seven Free Spins with an initial gem boost in which the DoubleMax™ multiplier does not reset.
Those wishing to enhance their chances of prizes can utilise a Bonus Boost for an additional 25% of their total bet, doubling the chance of triggering the Scarab Free Spins feature. There is also a Bonus Buy feature that automatically awards free spins for 100x the bet in jurisdictions that allow it.
Part of the YG Masters program, Pharaoh’s Gaze DoubleMax is powered by GATI, Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Stuart McCarthy, Head of Product & Programs at Yggdrasil, said: “The DoubleMax feature is something we’re incredibly proud of and we couldn’t be happier to see it added to another crowd-pleasing title developed by the team at Bang Bang Games.
“With a proven theme and exciting features, we’re confident this will be a huge hit.”
Frank McPolin, Managing Director at Bang Bang Games, said: “There’s no doubting that players have a strong affinity to Egyptian-themed slots, and we’re absolutely delighted to be able to release one that we think will delight fans of the genre, especially one as exciting as this thanks to the addition of one of Yggdrasil’s best-performing GEMs.”
