Gems of Ra Slot by Evoplay

Egyptian Gods Guard the Bonus

Gems of Ra puts a 5x3 grid with 20 fixed paylines inside an ancient Egyptian temple. RTP lands at 96.02%, and the max win caps at 6,414x total bet. Ten regular symbols, Wilds on reels 2 through 5, and three colors of Bonus gems drive the mechanics. The gem colors matter - each one connects to a specific Egyptian deity and a specific booster for the Hold & Win bonus.

Three Boosters, Three Gods

Purple gems summon Anubis with Extra Wealth. During the bonus, 1 to 4 random coin values get bumped by 0.5x to 10x per round. That's a passive income boost - coins already on the grid can grow every spin without you landing anything new. It doesn't apply to jackpot symbols though, just regular values.

Red gems call on Horus with Extra Reels. A second 5x3 bonus field appears below the first. Both spin independently, and all prizes from both grids combine at the end. Double grid also means double chance at filling all 15 positions for a GRAND jackpot. With Extra Reels active, you can technically win two GRANDs at 3,000x each.

Green gems bring Extra Spin. The bonus starting count goes from 3 to 4 respins. Every new coin still resets the counter, so that extra spin gives more breathing room for chains to develop.

The Hold & Win Bonus

Any colored gem landing in the base game has a chance to trigger the Bonus Game. The triggering gems convert to Gold Bonus symbols carrying their values, and the grid switches to bonus reels - only Gold coins and empty spaces. Three starting spins (four with Extra Spin), each new coin resets the counter, and the round ends when spins expire or all 15 positions fill.

Coin values range from 1x to 15x total bet. MINI pays 35x, MEGA 80x, SUPER 350x, and the GRAND for a full grid awards 3,000x. With Extra Wealth boosting values and Extra Reels doubling the field, the interaction between boosters creates more variance than any single one would.

Buy Bonus at Budget Prices

Three tiers: 35x for one random booster, 44x for two, and 66x for all three. These are among the cheapest Hold & Win buy-ins on the market. For comparison, 3 Crowns: Coin Hunt charges 67x for 1-3 random boosters and 121x for all three. At 35x entry, even cautious bankrolls get regular bonus access.

RTP stays consistent across all options - 95.99% to 96.14% - with the two-booster option actually being the highest at 96.14%. That's an unusual pricing quirk worth noting.

Egyptian Theme, Familiar Frame

Gems of Ra belongs to Evoplay's Three Pots series, which shares the three-booster Hold & Win framework across different themes. Patrick's Club uses Irish luck, 3 Crowns goes medieval, and Gems of Ra wraps it in pyramids and pharaohs. Egyptian themes are everywhere in slots, but the Three Pots mechanic gives this one something to work with beyond just the visuals.

The cat guardians flanking the reels add character. The paytable is modest in base game - top symbol pays 5x total bet for five of a kind. Like most Hold & Win slots, the base game keeps things quiet while the bonus carries the payout potential.
