Ancient Egypt is a subject which seems to attract a disproportionate amount of attention in the world of online slots; we’ve reviewed more than a few in the past and now Microgaming subsidiary Quickfire has one more to add to the list. At first glance it looks a little different and there’s a definite cartoonish quality to it’s appearance which marks it out in this genre.
Journey Of The Sun’s five reels are set inside an ornate temple structure and there are up to twenty five paylines on which you can create winning combinations. The low value symbols are a funky-looking 9, 10, J, Q, K and A there are a range of groovy-looking Egyptian gods as the higher values.
The wild is represented by a golden ankh and there’s a Journey Of The Sun scatter logo which activates the main feature.
Bonus Features
Journey Free Spins
This is a free spins with a little added extra and you can trigger it by landing three of more of the Journey Of The Sun scatter symbols anywhere on the reels.
You will now get to play a quick round of the ancient Egyptian board game Senet; the playing surface is a 3 x 10 grid and essentially you just need to pick one of the first 15 squares from the top. This will reveal the number of free spins and then that number is also used to move the piece along the board to another square which will reward you with a multiplier.
The free spins will then start and if you trigger the feature again, you’ll get to play Senet one more time.
Journey Of The Sun Online Slot Playing Tips
If you’re a low roller and want to play for the feature then that’s Ok – you’ve got just as much chance of landing the scatters with one payline as with twenty five but of course the prizes will be proportionately smaller.
Verdict
This game is raised just above the average slot with it’s entertaining cartoon graphics and the chance to have a quick game of Senet before the free spins start. One of the better Egyptian-themed slots.
