On a laptop or desktop, the screen layout is a little different. The 20-payline playing grid takes up only half the screen, on the left-hand side. The right side is where the three obelisks stand in the sand. They grow in size during your base game until one of them launches a bonus round.
The golden sands, large pyramid and blazing sun give the Age of Pharaohs a distinctly atmospheric flavour, with ancient Egyptian symbols adding to a great look.
You can bet from 10p a spin, and change your cost per spin by tapping the coin stack icon at the bottom of the screen. The maximum win is capped at 582x your bet.

You earn a payout in this slot by matching at least three of the same symbols on one of the 20 paylines, starting from reel one on the left.
The low-paying symbols are the J, Q, K and A, and the more traditional ancient Egyptian symbols of the Bastet (cat god), eye of Horus, sphinx and pharaoh represent the higher-paying symbols.
Here’s the paytable, based on a £1.00 wager each spin:
| Symbols | Match 3 | Match 4 | Match 5 |
|---|---|---|---|
| J | 0.20 | 0.60 | 1.00 |
| Q | 0.30 | 1.00 | 1.50 |
| K | 0.50 | 1.10 | 2.00 |
| A | 0.60 | 1.30 | 2.50 |

Age of Pharaohs may be a simple game, which adds to its appeal for many, but it does have some fun bonus features to watch out for.
The two pyramids are the wild symbol, which substitutes for all others to help you form a winning line.
On the right are three obelisk monuments, which appear to grow in size each time a scarab beetle with the matching colour lands on the grid. It appears that when an obelisk reaches its full height, its bonus round triggers. In reality, this event is random.
As a side note, the scarab was much revered in ancient times, even though it’s effectively a dung beetle.
The three obelisks are:
When this bonus activates, the screen is taken over by 15 sarcophagus caskets. 12 of them reveal hidden prizes, from small cash amounts up to the Mega, Major or Minor jackpots. The three remaining caskets are Collects, which means you win whatever you have revealed up to that point.
Receive up to 9 spins in which Sun Wilds can land. They stick in place for the remainder of your spins, greatly increasing your chances of forming a winning line.
With these free spins, any spin that yields no win activates a random resurrection re-spin of a reel, which will be enhanced with extra wilds.
Landing at least three wilds on a payline will payout as follows, in the base game and bonus rounds (based on a £1 bet):
| Symbols | Match 3 | Match 4 | Match 5 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pyramid Wild | 4.00 | 5.00 | 10.00 |
| Sun Wild | 4.00 | 5.00 | 10.00 |
| Undead Wild | 4.00 | 5.00 | 10.00 |
