Relic Riches Slot by Amatic Industries Free Demo and Review

Relic Riches Review

The collection mechanic first introduced in the Fishin’ Frenzy slot still remains at the top of players’ favorite, and therefore we see numerous providers trying to follow in the footsteps of the success, creating their own games inspired by the iconic Reel Time Gaming’s brainchild. Amatic Industries doesn’t stay aside and proudly presents its Relic Riches slot, which mixes up the popular Egyptian theme with the famous free spins system.

Design-wise, Relic Riches offers perfect aesthetics, deeply immersing you in the atmosphere of ancient Egypt with its detailed graphics and ambient sounds. The game takes you to the heart of Giza, giving you a view of the desert and the Great Sphinx and pyramids drenched in sunlight. A mesmerizing sight indeed. However, hardly creative at all.

The actions of the Relic Riches slot take place across a traditional 5×3 grid producing 10 ways to play on each spin, and players drop in by setting bets from £0.1 to £100. Powered by a medium-volatile math model, the game comes with an exceptional 97.85% RTP, which is way above average, so you should get your returns quite often. As for the size of those returns, the official max win value is unknown, but we’ll keep you posted as soon as we get more info.

As we head over to the paytable, we see 9 regular symbols that are split into highs and lows, as well as four different canopic jars, which have a similar function to fish symbols from Fishin’ Frenzy. They act as regulars in the base game, but once the bonus game kicks in, they turn into cash symbols with random values, though, we’ll cover them shortly in the features section down below.

Back to the normal symbols, they start at the lower end with classic A-10 card ranks, followed by maps, backpacks, treasure chests, and pharaohs, which make up the higher lot. The latter is the most valuable out of all, paying from 2-of-a-kind and more, while the rest needs at least 3 instances on a line. Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth 10x the bet, and combinations of canope symbols pay 20x the bet. Meanwhile, five-symbol wins of the premiums are worth from 50x to 200x the bet.

Relic Riches Slot Features

Look out for pyramid symbols that can appear anywhere on the reels during the base game. They are Scatter symbols, and landing 3 or more simultaneously awards access to the free games:

• 3 Scatter symbols – award 10 Free Spins
• 4 Scatter symbols – award 15 Free Spins
• 5 Scatter symbols – award 25 Free Spins

As alluded to earlier, canope symbols obtain random cash values, while new Collector symbols come into play. Whenever a Collector lands in view along with one or more cash symbol, the displayed value is collected and paid to the player. Collector symbols also act as Wilds, substituting for any of the regular symbols, producing bigger winning opportunities. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to retrigger the bonus.

Review Summary

We’ve seen numerous Fishin’ Frenzy copycats, and Amatic’s Relic Riches slot is definitely not the worst. It’s not the best either, offering nothing new for the players except for the Egyptian wrapping, which is quite common as well though. All up, there’s certainly some entertainment to be found, but the game would hardly get you super excited.
