Sphinx Wild Special Features

Below we explain all the bonus features and special functions of the Sphinx Wild slot.

Wild

The wild symbol represents the sphinx icon and can appear anywhere on the reels, helping to form additional paylines.

Scatter Wins

Besides being responsible for the free spins feature, the Scatter also offers an interesting payout. Depending on whether it appears 2, 3, 4, or 5 times on the screen, it returns a sum equal to 1x, 3x, 10x, or 25x the initial bet.

Free Spins Bonus

This bonus is activated when three or more scattered Bonus symbols appear on the reels. The player has the choice between four free spins and multiplier options, which depend on the number of Bonus symbols present when activating the bonus:

• With 3 Bonus symbols: choose between 30 free spins with 1x multiplier, 15 free spins with 2x multiplier, 10 free spins with 3x multiplier, or 7 free spins with 5x multiplier;
• With 4 Bonus symbols: choose between 40 free spins with 1x multiplier, 20 free spins with 2x multiplier, 15 free spins with 3x multiplier, or 9 free spins with 5x multiplier;
• With 5 Bonus symbols: choose between 60 free spins with 1x multiplier, 30 free spins with 2x multiplier, 20 free spins with 3x multiplier, or 14 free spins with 5x multiplier.

The Free Spins Bonus can be reactivated if three or more Bonus symbols appear again during the free spins. Bonus reactivation allows choosing from the free spins options again once the current spins are completed. You can get up to a maximum of 600 free spins per bonus. If the number of awarded free spins exceeds 540 and the bonus-triggering combination appears again, only the scatter win is awarded and no additional free spins.

Surrounding Wild Feature

This feature is activated when a Wild symbol appears on the reels. The Wild expands and transforms all adjacent symbols into Wilds, and if this expansion leads to a win, the surrounding symbols also become Wild. If Bonus symbols are covered during this feature, the player will still receive the scatter win or bonus.

Many Capecod gaming slots are available on Snai under the blue casino category. Ancient Egypt has inspired many online slots over the years, creating titles like the famous VLT Book of Ra Deluxe and Cleopatra, the first inspired by a young archaeologist searching for ancient artifacts while the second by the beautiful Cleopatra. There is also an earlier version, the Sphinx slot, with an identical theme but reduced game mechanics. All these games are available on our site in demo version, compatible with desktop and mobile.

Pros and Cons of the Sphinx Wild Slot Machine

The theme of the Sphinx Wild slot machine is undoubtedly one of its most relevant features and one of the aspects that most attracts player attention. Themes set in ancient Egypt among deity statues and precious artifacts are among the most used in online slots and can create suggestive atmospheres and never-boring themes.

The game mechanics are also among the most interesting aspects of the slot, which stands out for its simple rules and few straightforward bonus features. The gameplay of Sphinx Wild is therefore suitable for most players, except for those who appreciate more complex game dynamics beyond the Free Spins typical of all Capecod Gaming titles and not just present on the pharaoh-themed reels.
