The game is set out across a 3, 4, 4, 4, 3 grid and is playable across all devices.The well designed graphics match the theme perfectly. The reels are set in the entrance of a luxurious temple, with statues of Bastet on either side and ornate pillars and palm trees in the background.Symbols are Egyptian style card suits, Bastet, a scarab, Horus and Cleopatra.

Gameplay

The Sphinx is the wild symbol and will land stacked on the 2^nd to 4^th reels. If not fully visible, it will nudge into position to fill the entire reel, and each nudge will increase the multiplier by x1.Landing the pyramid bonus symbol on the 1^st and 5^th reels, activates the Hold & Win feature, where you receive 3 respins with only blank and coin symbols being in play. Each coin that lands on the reels, resets the respins back to 3.Once you have filled the reels with coins or used up all your respins, you then go on to spin the wheel of fortune where you win a multiplier worth up to x10.You can trigger the free spins by landing 3 scatters on the centre 3 reels. You will receive 8 free spins with unlimited multiplier wilds.

Verdict

Sphinx Fortune Hold and Win has a below average RTP which could deter a lot of players. I liked the hold & win feature and the unlimited multiplier wilds in the free spins, which can lead you to pocketing a sizeable win.
