INFO

Golden Glyph from Quickspin harnesses ancient Egyptian myths with unlocked treasures that can reach as high as 13,000x total bet! The slot features the Power Wild and one of four Power-Up features: Golden Scarabs, Eye of Horus, Blaze of Fire and extra spins.

Banks of the Nile River

Golden Glyph is like a time-travelling adventure to ancient Egypt, on the banks of the Nile River. One of the most potent and greatest civilisations that lasted for over 3,000 years, the golden city is reflected in the beautiful illustration behind the grid. Here, great pyramids and towering statues look over a thriving civilisation.

The game is a cluster pays slot of 5+ symbols on a 7×7 playing area. Some high-win symbols include a falcon head representing the god Horus, a Queen and a Pharaoh.

Hieroglyphs represent the low-win symbols and include a cobra, ankh, eye (of Horus) and water. The combination of percussion and stringed instruments create encapsulating ancient Egyptian-themed music.

Tumbling Mechanics + Cluster Pays

The slot is a combination of cluster pays and tumbling mechanics. Groups of five or more identical symbols reward payouts and then disappear to kick off the tumbling mechanics where symbols fall to replace the spaces.

Tumbling can repeat indefinitely provided that new combinations of winning clusters are formed. While this is going on, there is no wagering required.

Golden Glyph Power Wild

The Power Wild symbol is available in all game modes where a Power Wild is awarded in a space created by a winning cluster of symbols. The Power Wild is removed as any other symbol that is part of a cluster win but triggers a Power-Up feature.

Power-Up Feature

There are four possible Power-Up features: extra spins bonus (final Power-Up), Eye of Horus, Blaze of God and Golden Scarab.

Golden Scarab

The scarab beetle will contribute a random number of wilds, starting from 4 and increasing to as high as 10, onto random positions.

Eye of Horus

A low-paying symbol is randomly removed from the playing area, which gives rise to a tumble. The feature creates the opportunity to create a win with a higher value.

Blaze of Fire

The Blaze of Fire feature will clear all symbols on the same row and column. It will not remove the Golden Glyph wild, regular wild or the Power Wild. In addition, a payout of 1/20th of bet is awarded.

Free Spins + Walking Golden Glyph Wild & Multiplier

The nine free spins bonus involves a special Golden Glyph wild symbol. It distinguishes the free spins by shifting its location on every spin for the feature’s duration. Every activation adds an extra three free spins, and every cluster win during the free spins will increase a multiplier.

Game Summary

Golden Glyph slot has a solid player return (RTP) of 96.19% and high volatility. You can find a good range of allowable bets starting from 0.20 and going as high as 20. The slot design allows for mobile/tablet and desktop play, provided that you have an Android or iOS device for the former. Read more of our Quickspin slot game review here.
