Rich Wilde’s daughter Cat Wilde is back on yet another adventure. Following in her father’s footsteps, the famous adrenaline junkie archaeologist, Ms Wild is visiting the tombs of the dead in yet another ancient Egyptian cultural exploration.

The family duo just can’t get enough of their action packed journeys into the unknown. And that’s fine by me because if you are a fan of the Book of Dead series and Egyptian-themed slots, much like myself, then the Wilde family’s obsession with ancient Egypt is great news for all of us.

In what is now the 11th slot in the series, Cat Wilde explores the Pyramids of the Dead. Ironically, where the original Book of Dead lay in the arms or mummified corpses. And as we are resurrecting the original Riche Wild Book of Dead, we return to the 5×3 reel and 10 pay lines video slot gameplay used by the popular original released back in 2016.

For Cat Wilde, this is her 4th adventure in the epic Book of Dead slot series, with her father stars the other 7 titles. We could call it her 5th outing in the series too because she did play a backup roll when she first made an appearance back in 2020 in the Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena slot title. Another 10 pay line and 5×3 reel hit slot themed on the legendary Medusa shield depicted in ancient Greek mythological.

Highlights: Cat Wilde Pyramids of Dead video slot came out under the Play’n GO video slot portfolio on 23 June 2022. The gameplay comes with 5 reels hosting 3 symbols on each thus giving players a 5×3 grid with 10 pay lines to boot. Minimum bets start at 0.10 and can go up to 100.00 depending on your jurisdiction. This slot comes with 4 jackpots, wild symbols, scatters, expanding symbols, instant prize bonus, free spins and a gamble feature. As for the theoretical RTP, this is 96% with a medium variance/volatility rating. With all this action in play, you could land a max win worth up to 10,000x your spin bet!

Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead Slot Features

Some of the highest paying symbol combination wins (see below) come with a huge range of features over the Cat Wilde and the Pyramid of Dead online slot. Land bonus Pyramid Wild Scatters for up to 500,000 coins via one of the 3 bonus games.

How to Bet: All you need to do to kick-start your adventure is select your ‘Coin Value’ between 0.01 and 2.00 and then set between 1 and 5 per line. This will determine your spin bet total. For example, if you bet 1.00 per coin and 1 coin per line, the slot will then multiply your coin value and coins by the number of pay lines. ‘1 coin x 10 = 10 coins’ and ’10 coins x 1.00′ = 10.00 per spins. If you add 2 coins, then this is ‘2 coins x 10′ = 20 coins and ’20 coins x 1.00’ = 20.00 per spin, and so on.

The Key Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead Online Slot Features Listed

• Scatter Wild: The Pyramids of Dead is the video slot’s wildcard symbol. It substitutes for any of the slot’s 9 high paying and low paying symbols.
• Scatter Multiplier: The Pyramids of Dead symbol is also the scatter and pays multipliers of your coin bet. If 2, 3, 4, or 5 symbols anywhere on the reels without having to be on pay line, i.e., it can land anywhere in view, it dishes out 20x, 200x, 1,000x or 10,000x the value of your ‘coin bet’.
• Scatter Bonus Trigger: Once all symbol combinations and the scatter multiplier pays, if you landed 3, 4, or 5 scatters anywhere on the reels, it will trigger 1 of the 3 bonus games. Note that you cannot choose the bonus, as the slot does this for you at random.
• Prize Round Bonus: Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters could trigger the ‘Prize Round’. This is the route to winning one of the jackpot multipliers.
• Instant Prize Bónus: Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters could trigger the ‘Instant Round’. A treasure chest will open up and awards multipliers of your spin bet worth up to 500x.
• Free Spins Bonus: You’ll receive 10 bonus free spins with a random symbol designated as an expanding symbol. If you re-trigger this bonus during free spins, not only will receive an additional 10 free spins, you also have a second expanding symbol.
• Gamble: After every win, you can choose whether to ‘Gamble’ or ‘Collect’. If you gamble, you enter a card game. Choose ‘red’ or ‘black’ to double your bet or the suit of the next card (Heart, Diamond, Club, or Spade’ to quadruple your bet. You can then collect or gamble again.

Free Spins Bonus with Expanding Symbols Explained

Expanding symbols ‘pay anywhere’. Before the free spins bonus kicks off, any of the high or low paying symbols (excluding the Pyramids of Dead symbol), will randomly become the expanding symbol. Therefore, during the free spins game, if Cat Wilde is the random symbol is the ‘Expanding Symbol’, she does not need to line up in a pay line or on adjacent reels to pay. If you see her 2, 3, 4 or 5 times anywhere in view, you get paid. For example, if she lands on reels 1, 3, and 5, this counts as a 3-symbol combination win. That’s 1,000x your ‘coin bet’, which is essentially 100x your ‘spin bet’.

Winning the Cat Wilde Pyramids of the Dead Jackpots Explained

There are 4 jackpots named after some of the most famous Egyptian pharaohs. The key to landing one of these is via the ‘Prize Round Bonus’. The max win is 10,000x your ‘coin bet’ total, which when divided by 10 pay lines is 1,000x your spin bet. You will need to choose 3 times from 5 ancient vases and if you reveal 3 symbols that match one jackpot, you win that jackpot. If you land 3 scatters, you can win the Khufu or Tiye jackpots. If you land 4 scatters, then you have a shot at the Khufu, Tiye, and Tutankhamun jackpots. You will need to land 5 scatters for a shot at the top paying jackpot – Mereneith.

• Khufu: 200x your total coin bet (20x your spin bet)
• Tiye: 1,000x your total coin bet (100x your spin bet)
• Tutankhamun: 2,500x your total coin bet (250x your spin bet)
• Mereneith: 10,000x your total coin bet (1,000x your spin bet)

The Pyramid of Dead Rules: In short, the Pyramids of the Dead symbol does all the legwork. It pays the highest combination win, along with the Cat Wilde symbol. It is the slot’s wild symbol, and it triggers one of the 3 bonuses randomly. With that said, it is the key to landing one of the jackpot wins.

Regular Symbols & Payouts

The higher paying symbols, which are the 5 pictures, pay for 2, 3, 4, or 5 on a pay line. The lower paying symbols are the playing cards icons A, K, Q, J and 10, which pay when 3, 4, or 5 symbols land on a pay line. All the value below are multipliers of your spin bet. However, in the pay table, the payouts next to each symbol represent the multiplier of the value of your ‘coin bet total’.

Rounding Up The Pyramids of the Dead Video Slot Title by Play’n GO

The search for ancient relics never stops. Rich Wilde and Cat Wilde have taken us on some amazing adventures through mythological realms of the past on many an occasion. Ancient Egypt, Greek mythology, Aztec adventures in Central American in Mayan lands, and up to through the mountains of India in search of Wall of Shiva and Wheel of Brahma. This time around, we land right back where it all began, back to the Pyramids of Egypt and Cat Wilde takes the reins while her father vacations.

I have to say, she’s outdone her dad on this occasion by bringing forth many of the original the Book of Dead slot features, and adding more action to the reels.  When you compare this to the original Book of Dead slot – Free Spins Bonus, Scatter Multiplier, Expanding Symbols, and a Gamble feature, there isn’t much between them. However, Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead has all this, plus the chance to win 1 of 4 jackpots, extra instant win prizes, and additional/multiple expanding symbols during the free spins game. Therefore, if you are a fan of Riche Wild and the Book of Dead, I am 100% certain you will be a fan of this brand new Cat Wilde adventure.
