In terms of theme and design, Blueprint Gaming did not deliver anything new or innovative with the release of Crypt of the Dead. The excessively used Egyptian motif inspires this video slot, however, there is something different about it.
4096 paylines make this machine more attractive than many of the Egyptian Mythology titles. What else does this popular UK-based software developer offer players in this 6x4 grid slot? Read on...
Crypt of the Dead Gameplay and Theme
As we mentioned, the theme itself is not a revelation. And, frankly, even in terms of design, this game cannot boast of too much quality. Discreetly animated background, simple reel frame, and symbols inspired by Egyptian legends. That's more or less what you expect, visually, in this game.
Certainly, for many players, less is more, and many will be grateful for this design, which is definitely not "too much". The game is simple in every sense, including the visual one, and does not divert attention from the main thing - the gameplay. We love the music selection for this Blueprint Gaming slot machine – it’s delightful and creates a soothing atmosphere.
As for the symbols, a standard Egyptian team awaits the players, the one which appears in most slots inspired by this theme: Tutankhamun, Anubis, and Horus at the head, archaeologists, as well as card symbols.
Betting Options and More Options
This game is great for beginners, as you can play the real cash version with only 0.10 coins per spin. If you want to open up the possibility of bigger wins, logically, you will invest more. The maximum bet in Crypt of the Dead is 5.00. Unfortunately, the Return to Player statistics is not on this game's side. The RTP is below the iGaming industry standard and stands at 95.49%. However, the information that the maximum winning is a whopping 50,000x bet can cheer you up.
Crypt of the Dead Slot Features
A fairly standard list of extra features, with one small twist in the form of a special expanding symbols bonus. Wilds and Scatters, which are hidden under the same symbol - Crypt of the Dead, will help players in replacing less valuable symbols, but also activate the extra spins feature.
As for the extra spins bonus, it is activated when you land 3 or more Scatter symbols on the reel. Depending on the number of Scatters on the grid, you will also win the number of bonus spins. The math is as follows: 3 Scatters bring 10 extra spins, 4 rewards with 15 extra spins, 5 with 25, and 6 Scatters in one spin with even 60 extra spins!
Here we come to the interesting part of the story - the Special expanding symbols, which are randomly selected before the extra spins feature starts. This expanding symbol can show up at any place on the reel providing bigger wins to the player.
Our Take on Crypt of the Dead
It's not the best Egyptian-inspired slot we've ever seen, but Blueprint Gaming still made a high-quality contribution to the theme. If you like simplicity in terms of design, as well as familiar, easy-to-understand special features, you will love this game. It is available in Fun mode and fully optimized for playing on mobile devices.
