Resurrected Pharaoh Wild Symbol
The Resurrected Pharaoh Wild symbol can substitute for all regular symbols, helping to create winning combinations on paylines. It cannot replace Scatter symbols, Sunfire Orbs, or Ankh Of Power symbols.
Vault Of Ra Bonus Feature
Ankh Of Power symbols can land on any reel during both the base game and Free Spins, and they’re added to Ra's Ascension meter whenever they turn up. You trigger the Vault Of Ra Bonus by collecting Ankh Of Power Symbols on all reels. The feature presents you with 12 Crown Chests, and you get to pick three of them.
The chests will reveal either a Coin or a bonus prize. The Coin Prizes are paid immediately, and picking a Bonus Prize gets you an additional pick. Collecting 3 matching Bonus prize symbols awards the corresponding jackpot, which is one of the following:
Grand: 10,000x the total bet
Major: 250x the total bet
Minor: 50x the total bet
You can win multiple prizes in the feature, which ends when you run out of spins.
Scatter Symbols
Power Combo Scatter Symbols are collected in their matching chests above the reels. They can also randomly trigger the Link&Win Feature when they appear. There are three different types of Scatters, representing the Expand, Collect, and Boost features. A symbol can trigger one of those features, and several Scatters can trigger a combination of them. The Power Combo Scatter Symbol also turns into a Wild Symbol in the base game and Free Spins.
Divine Scatter Upgrades
There’s a Capstone Meter that unlocks powerful Divine Scatter Upgrades when you collect Scatter Symbols. Every collected Scatter reduces the meter, regardless of which scarab chest it is added to.
Level 1 is unlocked after collecting 5 Scatters. Level 2 is unlocked after collecting 10 additional Scatters, and Level 3 is unlocked after collecting 20 more Scatters.
At Level 1, the Rainbow Scatter Upgrade becomes available. When it lands, it splits into all 3 coloured Power Combo Scatters and can trigger one or multiple Link&Win features.
At Level 2, the Second Chance Scatter Upgrade is unlocked. If a feature does not trigger when the Scatter lands, this upgrade provides an additional opportunity for activation.
At Level 3, the Instant Win Scatter Upgrade is unlocked. This Scatter immediately triggers a Link&Win feature when it lands.
Divine Scatters also transform into Resurrected Pharaoh Wild symbols during the base game and Free Spins.
Link&Win Feature
You can trigger the Link&Win feature in both the base game and the Free Spins. The feature is played on special reels with 3 Coin prize symbols already displayed on them. You start with 3 spins and can either land blanks or Coins on each position. The spins reset to 3 on any spin where you land at least 1 Coin.
Some prize symbols may reveal the Minor (50x) and Major (250x) Jackpots. Filling every position on the grid awards the Grand jackpot (10,000x).
Link&Win Triggered By Blue Power Combo Scatter
The Blue Power Combo Scatter comes with a Prize Boost modifier. The Blue Scatter can randomly increase the value of Coin prize symbols on any spin, creating opportunities for larger rewards.
Link&Win Triggered By Green Power Combo Scatter
The Green Power Combo Scatter will give you the Ascension Reels modifier, expanding the reels to a larger 5x5 grid.
Link&Win Triggered By Red Power Combo Scatter
The Red Power Combo Scatter features the Anubis Collect modifier. An Anubis Collect symbol may land on any reel, collecting and immediately awarding all Coin and Bonus symbols on the reels. The Anubis Collect symbol then transforms into a Coin symbol with a random prize value.
Link&Win With Combined Features
Different Power Combo Scatters can combine to activate multiple Link&Win modifiers at the same time. A Blue Scatter and a Red Scatter trigger Prize Boost and Anubis Collect together. A Blue Scatter and a Green Scatter trigger Prize Boost and Ascension Reels together. A Green Scatter and a Red Scatter trigger Ascension Reels and Anubis Collect together.
Landing Blue, Green, and Red Scatters together activates all three Link&Win modifiers in a single feature.
Nile Rising Free Spins
Sunfire Orbs can appear on the regular-paying symbols in the base game. Whenever a Sunfire Orb appears, it is collected in the Free Spins meter and may trigger the Nile Rising Free Spins feature.
You’re awarded 5 spins and win one extra every time a Sunfire Orb lands. Power Combo Scatter symbols appear more frequently during the feature, and collected Scatters have a higher chance of triggering the Link&Win feature. If you trigger the Link&Win feature, it will trigger when the Free Spins feature is completed.
Feature Buy
You can buy instant access to the Link&Win feature, combining the different features, or just go with one of them. The cost ranges from 33.64x to 127.9x the bet.
Final Thoughts on Ra & Cleopatra: Nile Rising Power Combo
Ra & Cleopatra: Nile Rising Power Combo certainly doesn’t suffer from a lack of features. There are tons of different stuff that can pop up in the shape of Vault of Ra bonus, Nile Rising Free Spins, Divine Scatter Upgrades, and the different Link&Win combinations. The ability to combine the Expand, Collect, and Boost modifiers adds even more variety, and you will have plenty to explore if you like an abundance of features. The ancient Egyptian theme is also presented nicely, though it has been repeated insanely many times by now.
However, tons of features aren't enough when they’re more or less the same ones as in countless other games from this provider. The only thing that differentiates Ra & Cleopatra: Nile Rising Power Combo from Dragonlings: Fire & Riches Power Combo is the added Divine Scatter Upgrades. Everything else is exactly the same. The setup and max win are identical, though the RTP has been tweaked slightly.
That lack of originality significantly harms the experience. While the features are entertaining and well-designed, there is no innovation to be found.
Ra & Cleopatra: Nile Rising Power Combo from Infinity Dragon Studios is a polished and feature-packed slot. However, spinning the reels makes us feel like we have played the game many times before.
