Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin: Slot Review and Free Play Demo

Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin Review

Inspired Gaming have been on the scene for a while now, but they aren’t quite living up to their name with their releases. With Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin, we’re getting yet another game that uses well-known formulas, but it should be stressed that it’s reasonably complex and that it has quite a few bonus features on offer. We’ll get to those later on, however. For now, we’ll kick things off by saying that it all takes place on a playing field with 6 reels, 3 rows and 40 paylines.

The theme of Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin is entirely pedestrian, and it’s hard to see how it could possibly impress anyone. What we have here is a basic Egyptian-themed slot with traditional symbols, and its production values are average at best.

The mathematical model of Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin has a medium volatility level, but there’s no official info about the slot’s jackpot. You can jump in for all sorts of stakes, though, from £0.20 to £100 per spin. Unfortunately, the game’s theoretical RTP is never above 94.11%, which is outright awful.

Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin Slot Features

There are 9 pay symbols in Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin, and they are divided evenly into 5 low-paying symbols and 4 high-paying symbols. For low-paying symbols, the game has just your basic card ranks from Tens to Aces, and those can net you up to 2x your bet for a full combination. That really isn’t much, since you have to line up a total of 6 matching symbols for that to happen. For high-paying symbols, there are various animal statues, and the jackal statue symbols pay up to 12x your bet per combination.

Aside from pay symbols, there are also Cleopatra Wilds, Pyramid Bonus symbols, and Scarab symbols. Cleopatra Wilds can not only substitute for other pay symbols in combos, but also bring you nice payouts of their own. Pyramid Bonus symbols and Scarab symbols, on the other hand, interact with the slot’s gameplay features.

Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin Slot – Free Spins Feature

If you land 3 or more Pyramid Bonus symbols in one go, you’ll get to choose between triggering the Free Spins feature with 10-25 free spins and triggering the Win and Spin feature. The Free Spins feature is quite straightforward, but it’s worth noting that you can get extra free spins by landing extra sets of Pyramid Bonus symbols.

The Win and Spin feature can also be triggered by 6+ Scarab symbols, and it works like your typical Hold and Win feature. You’ll start with 3 respins, and landing Scarab symbols resets the tally back to 3. You can also get special Jackpot Scarab symbols with fixed jackpots, and filling the entire board will net you the Grand jackpot, which is worth 500x your bet.

You can also try your luck with the Fortune Spins option, which allows you to play a small minigame that can get you to the Win and Spin feature if you get lucky. You’ll have to pay either 30x or 60x your bet for a ticket, though.

Finally, there’s also the Spin Chance feature that shows up whenever your bankroll drops below your selected stake level. Thanks to this feature, you can decide to risk your remaining bankroll to get a shot at another game round, but there are no guarantees in that regard.

Review Summary

Well, what can we say? On one hand, Scarab Fortunes Win and Spin does offer quite a lot in terms of gameplay, but its presentation is hardly good, and its theoretical RTP is so dreadful that we simply can’t recommend it on that basis alone. It really is a shame that all those interesting gameplay bits are buried under those negatives, but there you go.
