Golden Nile Slot 

Produced by iGaming powerhouses AGS and revealed to players in June 2023, the Golden Nile slot is a vibrant take on the Egyptian genre that includes a number of creative design nuances. Thanks to its deep purple colour palette, this release already sets itself apart visually from the myriad of other online casino slots inspired by the same ancient civilisation. Through the additional jackpot system, multiplier symbols, and altered playgrid layout, the Golden Nile slot is made all the more distinctive.

There are a total of 5 reels sitting inside a golden frame to the right of the playscreen in the Golden Nile slot; however, unlike most classic slot games, the number of symbols doesn't remain the same across all these. The central column of the playtable has 4 rows, whereas all of the columns on either side have 3 rows each. As a result of this, the payline count has been altered to accommodate this somewhat unconventional setup, with there being 324 of these across the purple coloured reels.

Directly above the main playgrid are some Minor, Major, and Grand jackpots located underneath a rotating diamond. Off to the left of these prize boxes is the golden Golden Nile slot logo, something which contrasts with the purple backdrop that sits behind it. This displays some sand dunes under a night sky, with the colour palette used here differing from the more sandy-toned Book of Dead and Cleopatra Hyper Hits.

Similar to other AGS titles, such as Golden Wins, the lower-valued symbols found in the Golden Nile slot are represented by the usual card royals, all of which have silver tins and could land in a different colour. On the other hand, the higher-valued icons in this Egyptian-themed release are different artefacts from the same ancient civilisation, further reinforcing the aesthetic if they are landed.

Lower Value Symbols:

Jack (J)

Queen (Q)

King (K)

Ace (A)

Medium Value Symbols:

Gold Ankh

Green Scarab Beetle

Higher Value Symbols:

Horus Eye Hieroglyph

Egyptian Pharaoh

The pyramids are often associated with the ancient Egyptians, with these elaborate structures being added as the scatter symbols in this Golden Nile slot. In addition to this, there are a series of winged jewels that could land with multipliers attached to them, as well as a series of diamonds that display the words Minor, Major, or Grand, and a golden ‘WILD’.

Starting with the jackpot labelled diamonds, if these are landed on reel 3 during base gameplay, they are collected by the rotating diamond located towards the top of the screen. On any random spin, this could trigger the Diamond District bonus in the Golden Nile slot, in which one of the Grand, Major, or Minor jackpot prizes may be triggered randomly.

During base gameplay, the golden ‘WILD’ can only land on reels 2 and 4. If it appears, however, this may step in and take the place of any card or artefact symbols that make up the paytable in the Golden Nile slot. This is due to its role as a wild, meaning it has substituting abilities that could see it assume the value of all symbols.

Should 3, 4, or 5 of the pyramid scatters be landed at the same time, this may trigger 7, 12, or 20 free spins in the Golden Nile slot. It is during this bonus round that the winged jewel multipliers are introduced to reel 5, with these potentially displaying values of 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x, or 10x. If these are landed, they are also collected by the rotating diamond towards the top of the playgrid, and should it trigger the Diamond District bonus, it may apply its multiplier to the corresponding prize.

By building the Golden Nile slot on top of adaptive HTML5 software, just like their other online casino games, AGS have made sure this Egyptian title remains consistent across different device types. This technology automatically resizes the game and its impressive, colourful graphics to smartphones, tablets, PCs, and laptops. In the process, none of the quality is lost, keeping the experience consistent across all of the mentioned play methods, as long as players connect one of them to the internet.

All in all, the Golden Nile slot manages to craft a unique aesthetic for this genre inspired by ancient civilisations, all whilst implementing a collection of creative bonus elements that add multiple layers to the gameplay. 

The Egyptians are also a central focus of titles such as Pyramid King and Queen of Alexandria WowPot, if you like the style of visuals in this Golden Nile slot.
