The 1999 Mummy movie still holds up! It’s mostly because of the fantastic performances from Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, and John Hannah, but the whole cast just kills it. The CGI is also surprisingly good, apart from that last scene in the tomb. It’s no wonder that the movie and, as a result, Egyptian mythology, in general, are so appealing to me.

Well, Belatra is filling my need for this brand of content with Mummyland Treasures slot. So, grab your pistols and treasure map, and let’s get rich together.

The mummy’s tomb awaits

Let’s get the basics out of the way. The slot features a 7×7 grid format with a 3×7 grid being active at the beginning of each base game spin. If you manage to hit a winning combination, one or two of the locked symbols either below or above each reel involved in the winning combination will be unlocked. All symbols involved in the winning combination will be removed from the reels at the same time. Finally, new symbols will fall into the empty spots, giving you a second chance to win and unlock more of the reels.

The slot has a number of special symbols, each offering its own unique bonus feature:

• Blue lightning symbols will unlock a random number of inactive symbols above and below the reels.
• Yellow lightning symbols will remove low-paying symbols that are not involved in a winning combination from the reels.
• Coin symbols will carry a value of 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100 and will pay out if four or more appear on the reels at once. The values of each coin will be added together and then multiplied by your bet amount.
• The scarab symbols will destroy all symbols active or inactive horizontally, vertically, or all around it. The scarab also serves as the slot’s scatter symbol, unlocking a round of free spins when three or more appear on the reels.

 

The number of scarabs you utilize to unlock a round of free spins will determine how many spins you receive between 10 and 15. To get the full 15, you will need six scarab symbols. If during a round of free spins, you unlock all the inactive symbols, you will earn an additional three free spins.

During a round of free spins, an accumulative multiplier will be applied to each and every win. The accumulative multiplier will increase by 1x with the appearance of each scarab symbol on the reels. The mummy may also pop up randomly to add between a 3x and 100x multiplier boost to your accumulative multiplier.

If you’re not keen on waiting around for the mummy, you can select to purchase a round of the slot’s bonus round. You can also select to increase each bet by 25% to double your chances of unlocking a bonus round the old-fashioned way.

Is Mummyland Treasures terrifying or terrific?

Is Egyptian mythology still popular? I remember as a kid the stuff was everywhere, mostly thanks to the Mummy, Stargate, and Stargate’s multiple spinoffs. Today, however, I don’t see much of it in modern pop culture, although I suppose there is Marvel’s Moon Knight. Either way, the theme generally offers some great visuals and a healthy dose of nostalgia for me. Mummyland Treasures slot is no different. I enjoyed the slot because I did have a sense that peak Brendan Fraser was about to come smashing through the reels. The slot does also have some interesting bonus features. It’s definitely worth a few spins.

The slot has a fairly healthy €250,000 max win that you’ll be able to play for at €50 a spin thanks to the 5,000x max multiplier. The slot does have high volatility, meaning you’ll experience long stretches between wins. However, thanks to a comprehensive buy bonus feature, you can work around the high volatility if winning isn’t your primary objective. This is mostly down to the fact that you’ll be spending more to unlock bonus features than you’ll win, in most instances at least. The slot has an RTP rating of 96.36%.
