About Pharaoh's Secrets Slot

The whole game hinges on one button. XtraWin sits in the top corner, and flipping it on before a spin does two things at once: it turns every Wild into a wild that stretches to fill its entire reel, and it lifts the pyramid scatter payouts. The cost is a 50% bump to your total bet, and it only works with all 20 paylines running. It's a standing choice you make spin to spin, not a one-off bonus you buy, so you can switch it on for a stretch and drop back to normal betting whenever you like.

Left off, the Wild still stands in for everything except the pyramid scatter, but it stays in a single cell. Toggle XtraWin on and those same wilds become full-reel expanding wilds, which is where the feature earns the extra stake back. The moonlit pyramid is the scatter, and it pays from anywhere on the grid rather than along a line: three return 4x your stake, four pay 20x, five pay 100x. Three or more also open the free spins, and the count swings hard, anywhere from 15 up to 100 depending on how the trigger falls.

Top of the paytable is the secret stone passage, a chamber with a pendulum swinging inside it. Five across a line pay 5,000x the line bet, the biggest single hit here. No jackpot sits behind it and no bonus buy, just that one premium symbol and the XtraWin toggle carrying the ceiling.

The black reels are boxed by golden sandstone brick and flanked by twin blue-and-gold Tutankhamun busts under a thin strip of starry night, a quiet torchlit tomb. Winged Isis, a blue scarab beetle and the red-and-blue Eye of Horus fill the premium spots, with bright enamel royals in green, blue, pink and orange down the low end.
