Hand of Anubis Slot Review

Hand of Anubis Slot Overview

Hand of Anubis is a new casino slot from Hacksaw Gaming where we meet a powerful god from the Egyptian mythology. It is namely Anubis, the protector of the gates to the underworld, that we get to meet in this slot. He had a lot of different roles in the Egyptian mythology, but his weighing of the hearts of the dead stands out from the crowd. He was then said to place the heart of the dead on a scale, where a feather also was placed. If the heart was heavier than the feather, then the person would have no afterlife, but if the heart was lighter, it was a sign that the person had lived an honest life, where they were spared a place in the afterlife paradise. Within this slot, we are treated to a darker gaming experience, where the slightly creepy Anubis characters along with its music create an eerie atmosphere. Something that can bring light to this dark existence, is the game's festive features that can award wins of up to 10000X the bet. Let's find out what the features do.

Cascade

When you create a winning cluster, the cascade feature is activated. Then all the symbols that were part of the win will disappear from the reels and new symbols will fall down to cover the empty positions. This continues as long as new wins are created.

Soul Orbs

During your spins you can land soul orb symbols in the colors blue and red, where these are the game's wild symbols and substitutes for other symbols, except for the scatter symbols. When you land a soul orb, it will absorb power from all cluster wins in a round, where the stacking win multiplier is applied to the wins created where the soul orb is included. The different colors have different properties, where the red soul orb will increase its multiplier by 1X for each symbol in each win. The blue soul orb will instead have its multiplier increased by 1X per winning clusters and their multiplier reset before each new spin is made. If you land two soul orbs at the same time that are part of a win, their values will be multiplied by each other before they are applied to the win.

Bonus Game

There are two different bonus games within this slot, these being Underworld and Judgment.

Underworld

If you land 3 scatter symbols, the Underworld bonus game is activated, and you are welcomed with 10 free spins. Within this feature, each reel will have a multiplier below it and each symbol included in a winning cluster will increase the corresponding reel by 1X per symbol. You can also land multiplier modifiers that increase the reel multipliers by either 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X or 10X. During your spins you can also land a green orb, and this will activate the multiplier on the reel it lands on. You will receive 3 extra spins when a multiplier is activated, and the multiplier will be applied to all wins created. It can be up to 9999X in size and if you have several unlocked, all of these will be applied to the wins.

Judgment

When you land 4 scatter symbols, the Judgment bonus game is activated, and you are welcomed with 3 respins. Each time you land a multiplier block, multiplier modifier block or crusher block, the respins will be reset to 3 again. You will have multipliers above each reel, and you increase these by landing multiplier blocks which can either add their value or multiply to the current multiplier. You can land the following multiplier symbols:

Skull = This will add a multiplier of either 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 10X, 25X, 50X or 100X to the reel above.

Epic Anubis Skull = This will multiply 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X or 10X to all reels.

When you land an ice block, this symbol will receive the multiplier shown above its reel and then drop down and remain on the reels. These crushed ice symbols stay during the remaining spins and will stack on each other if multiple land. You can also land crusher blocks which will destroy all the multiplier blocks placed on the reel it lands on and then it gets their total values, giving way for more symbols to land again.

Hand of Anubis Slot Conclusion

Hacksaw Gaming really has a phenomenal ability to switch between different themes in slots, where one moment they let us jump around among colorful rainbows in the slot Double Rainbow while in the slot The Bowery Boys we are transported to a dark and scary alley in New York. This time we are transported to the ancient Egypt, and they have certainly succeeded in an exemplary way when it comes to the scenery, where cleverly designed Anubis characters can be seen in the background during the spins. It's a darker choice of colors, similar to a Batman movie, creates a certain mystery and added excitement. As a player, you quickly get into a great atmosphere, where you are on the edge of your seat during the spins. It's a slot that's packed with innovative features that add a refreshing touch to an otherwise well-used Egyptian theme.

Within the base game, the soul orbs can provide sudden huge wins, where they initially act as wild symbols, but they will also collect multipliers that are applied to the winning clusters created during the current spin. If you are lucky enough to land both soul orbs at the same time, you will often be up for a nice treat. As we have seen in other slots from this game provider, they have once again created a slot with multiple bonus game variants, which makes up for a wonderfully distributed gaming experience. The Underworld bonus game welcomes the player with 10 free spins, where winning combinations will increase a win multiplier on the various reels and by landing a green orb, it will unlock these multipliers which also give extra free spins. The fascinating thing here is that the multipliers are applied to all wins created whether on the same reel or not, and you can activate multiple multipliers at the same time which quickly makes you realize how it is possible to obtain the gigantic win of 10000X the bet.

The second bonus game, Judgement, allows us to take part in a respins feature. Where blocks with explosive wins can be created as the various blocks build up. There are only 3 spins to start with, but these can reset which can make the spinning experience very long lasting and most importantly very profitable. The atmospheric effects, soundtrack and adrenaline-packed features, make the gaming experience fantastic and you are quickly captivated in front of the screen. There is a very high volatility, and the balance can quickly shift in size, like most games from this game provider. Assuming the RTP by default is used, it's within a good range and although you may have grown tired of Egyptian slots, it's a game changer that must be tried.

Hand of Anubis is a slot from Hacksaw Gaming where we are treated to a very atmospheric gaming experience, which in addition to its design also allows us to take part in a festive array of features that are quite captivating.
