Anubis Ascension Demo (Octoplay) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

If you’re an avid online slot player, it’s likely you’ve entered more ancient Egyptian tombs than Indiana Jones, Lara Croft, and Zahi Hawass combined. Yep, so you’ve got it; with an intro like that, it can only mean we’re heading for the banks of the Nile again, and this time it’s courtesy of Octoplay and their Anubis Ascension slot, a 5-reel game featuring expanding sticky wilds, an increasing win multiplier, and prizes that can reach up to a maximum of 20,000x the bet.

Theme & Design

Egyptian-themed slots often mean tombs or temples, and Octoplay decided to go with a temple design rather than ancient mummies and a sarcophagus. There’s not really too much more to the game than that, other than to say the symbols are visually good, and overall, the presentation of an overused theme has been done well by the studio.

Unsurprisingly, we have a dedicated Egyptian slots category here on our platform if you wish to explore the niche further, but for those wanting something quick to play within the genre, I’d suggest Le Pharaoh from Hacksaw Gaming, a fun slot with some big win potential.

Anubis Ascension Gameplay & Features

Octoplay’s Anubis Ascension is a 5-reel, 4-row slot with high volatility and a below-average RTP of 95.80%. The bet selection on the game presents players with good options ranging from a minimum of €0.10 a spin up to a maximum of €50.

Onto the features, and there are two main aspects of Anubis Ascension for players to focus on. The first of these is the respin bonus, awarded any time a wild symbol lands in view. Initially, the wild will expand the full length of the reel before locking in place and a free respin being awarded. If another wild symbol hits, the process will continue, potentially leading to some good payouts.

The main bonus of the game is a free spins feature, triggered when 3 or more scatter symbols land in view, awarding 10 spins. The bonus begins with a win multiplier of x1 in play, and at the start of every spin, or respin, it will increase in value by a further x1 up to a maximum of 25x. Players can also win extra spins if 3 or more scatters again appear in view.
