Curse of Anubis slot review

Curse of Anubis is an Egyptian slot from Playtech, released in 2021. Its five reels are set out 3-4-4-4-3 with 50 paylines, and the Anubis wild can fill a whole reel and multiply wins by up to 25x. In the free spins, every Anubis wild leaves a frame behind, and the frames return as wilds on the last spin.

How Curse of Anubis plays

The outer reels hold three symbols each and the middle three hold four, which gives the grid a slight pyramid shape.

  • Card values are the low pays, with Egyptian symbols such as the scarab above them.
  • Anubis is the wild and can fill an entire reel.
  • Pyramids at sunset are the scatter, and they count on the middle reels.

In the base game, any win completed with the Anubis wild gets a random multiplier of 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 15x or 25x.

Free spins and framed wilds

Three pyramid scatters on the middle reels award 10 free spins, and the Anubis wild then works in a different way: each one that lands marks its position with a pink frame.

If Anubis lands again on a framed position, that spot gains a multiplier, which can climb as high as 10x. On the final spin, wilds return to every framed position, so the last spin is the one the whole round builds towards.
