Theme and Graphics
The visual theme of "Gallina d'Egitto" focuses completely on charm. The icons are created in a cartoonish style and ironically present some of the most famous symbols and characters from Egyptian history. For example, Cleopatra is depicted as a hen, the pharaoh is a rooster, and the Sphinx has taken on the appearance of a little pig. The lower-paying icons include the ankh, palm trees, the scepter of power, and some typical icons from old physical slot machines. Among these are a red 7 and BAR symbols decorated appropriately for the context. The highest-paying symbol is a large golden egg, adorned with hieroglyphics. Finally, the background shows a pleasantly animated desert, with wind gently moving the palm fronds and clouds moving across the sky.
Bonus Features
Wild: two crossed corn cobs are the Wild symbol of the slot, which can substitute for other icons and help form paylines. It substitutes for basic symbols but not the Medallion or Scatter icons.
Scatter and Free Spins: the Scatter offers a special payout depending on the number of symbols that land on the grid. With 3 scatters you win a 0.5x prize; with 4 Scatters a 5x prize and with 5 Scatters the 20x prize. In addition to offering a payout, at least 3 Scatters on the grid give access to the Free Spins game. This begins with choosing a hen that reveals a multiplier and 10 free spins. The Free Spins can be retriggered and you can play a maximum of 10 retriggers, thus 100 Free Spins.
Medallions Bonus: the silver coin icon is the bonus symbol that allows access to the Medallions Bonus. Getting the icon 3 times wins 3 spins, 4 times equals 4 spins, and 5 times you play 5 spins. Here you need to spin the wheels with the aim of landing more coin icons. When this happens, the number of spins available resets to the initial number. Each medallion bears a cash value and at the end of the bonus all wins are added together. The bonus ends when you complete the grid with 15 medallions or when you run out of available respins.
Popcorn bonus: during Free Spins, when the reels stop spinning, Popcorn bags can appear that transform some symbols present on the grid into Wilds or Scatters.
Extra Spins: some symbol combinations offer free respins even in standard games. For example, the Chicken Cleopatra combination offers 1 free respin with 2 icons and 2 free respins with 3 icons. You can play a maximum of 10 extra respins in the same game.
Gamble: the gamble feature allows you to double your winnings. By choosing a card, red or black, the player can get a x2 value that doubles the prize or just an X that loses the initial win. Prizes can only be doubled once and only if they don't exceed 10,000x the initial bet.
