This ELK Studios video slot is a 5-reel, 178-payline bundle of fun. With Hidden you are taken to ancient Egypt with our two protagonists…
…Professor Taylor and his nephew Benjamin.
Theme
Hidden revamps the ever-present theme of ancient Egypt. The game kicks off with an amusing yet brief cutscene where we see our heroes set off from London to unveil the mysteries of the Great Pyramids of Giza…
…which is a perfect chance for you to visit one of the great wonders of the ancient world!
As far as graphics go, ELK Studios did a fine job. The reel animations are also very well done which adds a lively feeling to the game.
Betting Options and Functions
ELK Studios implemented 178 pay-lines into 5 reels. The game is played from 20p to £100 per spin and is played on desktop, mobile devices as well as tablets…
…the game offers re-spins, free spins, sticky wild symbols, expanding symbols and cascading wins!
You will be surrounded with possibilities and high-octane action! The AutoPlay buttons is present in the user interface and it will help you control your gameplay, especially during free spins. The betting menu also offers the betting strategy feature…
…this feature allows you to choose the way you want to bet and you will be able to find an option that best suits your playstyle. You will be able to choose between 4 strategies: Optimizer, Jumper,Leveller and Booster and the panel in the game explains each strategy step by step.
The wild symbol is clearly displayed and you cannot miss it even if you wanted and, as always, acts as the substitute for all the symbols except for the magnifying glass.
Features
As far as features go, the Flashback Re-spins feature, as the name suggests, takes you a quick sneak peak back to ancient Egypt…
…rewarding you with three free respins, with one, two or three central reels covered in sticky wild symbols.
The Treasure Free Spins feature is triggered when you land three or more magnifying glass scatters anywhere on the reels…
…this feature will reward you with five free spins and one of the symbols on the reels in that moment will become the expanding symbol, which happens randomly. If this feature gets triggered during a free spin it will expand and create a bigger symbol. The rest of the symbols will disappear, giving you a second symbol drop…
…and another expanding symbol can drop, creating more bigger symbols.
And that’s not all; keep an eye out for the magnifying glass because each of those will give you one additional free spin and if you want to get bigger wins, you will need higher paying symbols.
Conclusion
To be fair, Hidden slot has a common theme, but ELK Studios made the game to be very rewarding, not just in the bonus features, but in the base game as well.
The strategy choosing options is certainly a useful feature, and will surely help inexperienced players figure out the game, while providing high-rollers with premade options for betting. A clean user interface, vivid graphics and animations, a fan-favorite theme…
…Hidden has it all.
