Eye of Horus Megaways Free Play

Blueprint Gaming teamed up with Merkur, both part of the Gauselmann group, to create the original Eye of Horus pokie. Now they've given it a proper overhaul with Eye of Horus Megaways, packing in heaps of new features and upgrades. The core gameplay still honours the original though, keeping those familiar symbols and bonus rounds while swapping out the traditional paylines for the Megaways engine.

Eye of Horus Megaways runs on a 6x3 grid rather than the original 5x3 setup. That extra reel came with the Megaways makeover, but the rest of the game stays pretty true to what punters loved about the first version. Give the demo a spin and see how the Megaways system breathes new life into this Egyptian-themed favourite.

Theme of the Eye of Horus Megaways pokie

At BETO, Eye of Horus, with its ancient Egyptian theme, is a crowd favourite that's won over heaps of punters. Blueprint Games nailed it with a simple yet gripping design, making it one of their top releases. The launch of Eye of Horus Megaways is the latest addition to their series, and it's set to be an even bigger hit. The new game keeps true to its roots, with familiar sounds, scenes, and backdrops that fans will recognise.

Sounds and Music

Most online pokie developers don't bother with custom soundtracks, preferring to use stock tunes. But when games like Immortal Romance go the extra mile with unique tracks, it can really pay off. The game's popularity skyrocketed, thanks in part to its four distinct soundtracks for each bonus round.

The Eye of Horus Megaways pokie sticks with classic casino sounds for its base game, giving you that authentic pub or RSL pokie machine vibe. But it kicks things up a notch with Middle Eastern-inspired music during the Free Spins bonus. This mix of familiar and fresh sounds makes for a more engaging spin and a better all-round gaming experience.

Kick off your Eye of Horus Megaways adventure by tapping the green spin button on the right side of the reels. Use the up and down arrows to adjust your bet from the default. Surprisingly for a polished pokie like this, the betting range is a bit narrow. You can wager between 0.10 and $10 per spin.

The autoplay feature lets you sit back while the game does the work, saving you from hitting spin each time. Just set your spin count plus win and loss limits, and you're sorted. The menu button's got tabs for checking out symbol payouts and tweaking settings. It's a breeze to use, perfect for a quick punt or a longer session at the pokies.

Iconic symbols in Eye of Horus Megaways can deliver massive payouts

Eye of Horus Megaways keeps the same symbols as the original version. Picture symbols are the high-paying ones, while high cards are the low-payers on the reels. After a win, some symbols disappear and new ones drop in. This can lead to multiple wins on a single spin. The feature offers a chance at big wins, but the low-paying symbols keep things balanced and interesting.

The Eye of Horus symbol in this pokie gives you the biggest payout of the regular symbols. Land 6 of them on consecutive reels for a 20x bet win. To score a win, you need at least three matching symbols on the reels.

In Eye of Horus Megaways, the top dog among regular symbols is, no surprises, the Eye of Horus itself. But scatters always trump standard symbols. The game features your usual card suits as low-value symbols, with some Egyptian-themed ones packing a bit more punch. Here's the lowdown on the Eye of Horus Megaways pokie paytable:

• Temple doorway scatter – Land 6 for a whopping 100x payout.
• Eye of Horus symbol - 6 of these will net you a 20x payout.
• Jackal - 6 matched symbols score a 4x payout.
• Bird - 6 of a kind pays out 2x.
• Scarab beetles - 6 matched symbols give you a 1x payout.
• Ankh - 6 of these will land you a 0.8x payout.
• Fans - 6 matched symbols also pay 0.8x.
• Card suits – 6 of a kind pays out 0.4x.

Bonus features explained:

In Eye of Horus Megaways, the Horus symbol acts as the wild. While it doesn't have its own prize value, it expands to cover the entire reel when it lands. It can substitute for any regular symbol except scatters. This expanding wild feature, combined with the Megaways engine, really ramps up the excitement.

Maximum jackpot:

While Eye of Horus Megaways doesn't have a specific jackpot, it offers some seriously big win potential. The max payout is a hefty 10,000x your initial bet. So, if you're playing at the top bet of $10, you could pocket up to $100,000 on a single spin. Not too shabby, eh? This Megaways pokie has medium to high variance without being overly volatile.
 

Landing Horus wild symbols can trigger free spins. These scatters determine your free spin count, with multipliers of 2x, 20x, 50x, or 100x. This kicks off the bonus round where wilds get extra features, and you score 12 free spins straight up. Plus, the Horus wild can upgrade high-paying symbols, with a beam of light zapping the symbol to boost its value on the paytable.

This bonus round favours low-value symbols, potentially leading to massive payouts. Scoring more Horus wilds during the round can net you extra free spins - 1, 2, or 3 wilds will award 1, 3, or 5 additional spins respectively.

The Eye of Horus Megaways pokie has an RTP (return to player) that sits between 95.20% and 95.60%. While this can vary, the official RTP from Blueprint Gaming is 95.60% - bang on the money.

When it comes to volatility, this Eye of Horus Megaways pokie is medium to high, so be prepared for some ups and downs.

Fancy a big win? The top prize in Eye of Horus Megaways is a whopping 10,000 times your bet. Not too shabby!

Eye of Horus Megaways falls a bit short on the prize front, and they're not exactly dishing out wins left and right. To be honest, it's a bit of a letdown compared to what we were hoping for. The original Eye of Horus had more oomph and kept you on the edge of your seat. While the expanding wild is a decent addition to the Megaways version, it seems to go walkabout when you need it most.

One for the Megaways buffs:

If you're already into the Megaways scene, or if you're a fan of the original, you might want to give this Eye of Horus Megaways pokie a burl. But fair warning, it's got a few noticeable shortcomings that might leave you feeling a bit flat. The paytable's not up to scratch, and they've left out the Avalanche Reels, which is a bit of a miss. When you line up 6 matching symbols, you'd expect to pocket more than your initial stake, but that's not how this one rolls.

Bonus features worth a look:

It's not all doom and gloom, though. If you can trigger the Eye of Horus Megaways Free Spins and rack up those Horus wild symbols, you might be in for some decent payouts. The game's saving grace is the feature that upgrades low-paying symbols to high-paying ones, giving you extra shots at a big win. With a bit of luck, you could use this to upgrade all regular symbols to the top-paying ones and potentially hit the jackpot of 10,000x your stake.
