Travel with us to the valley of the River Nile and explore the tomb of a once-powerful pharaoh in Ancient Egypt. Your host will be a daredevil explorer, who resembles Indiana Jones and Rich Wilde. Lost Mystery Chest is a 3x3 video slot that benefits from 10 paylines. This medium volatility game offers a max payout of 2,520x the bet per single spin. Your main field of interest should be Mystery Chest which can appear on every spin. These Chests contain cash prizes, high-paying symbols, Wilds, and even Scatters that trigger free spins. Playable from $0.10 per spin, the 2022 release comes with an RTP of 95.37%.
Instead of using the usual 5x3 grid, Betsoft decided it was time for a change, thus creating a video slot that benefits from 3 reels, 3 rows, and 10 fixed paylines. It makes it a lot easier for gamers to understand how everything functions in this forgotten temple. All they need to do in order to pocket a win is land 3 matching symbols on a payline. Betting starts at $0.10 per spin, and you cannot wager more than $150 at once. Once you get tired of hitting the Spin button, activate up to 100 automatic spins in Autoplay.
The handsome daredevil, who is your host in this game, will only keep you company while you spin the reels. The explorer will not appear among the symbols that populate the reels. The grid is placed in a tomb deep underground. Gold and other riches can be found on the floor of the tomb. Among the symbols, you will find Ankh and Pyramid as the two high-value ones. Stones with the Eye of Ra, Scarab, and Bird act as low-paying icons. Mystery Chest will appear on the reels, delivering Wilds and Scatters, among other things. Wilds substitute for all regular symbols, while Scatters trigger free spins.
From 3 to 5 Mystery Chests can land in a single spin during the base game. They remain locked until the reels stop completely. Once that happens, the Chest will open and reveal the prizes. Players may pocket instant cash, or the Chest may reveal Pyramids, Ankhs, Wilds, or Scatters. If 3 or more Scatters appear, the Free Spins feature is triggered. Depending on the number of Scatters landed (3, 4, 5), players may trigger 6, 8, or 10 freebies, and pocket 5x, 10x, or 20x prize.
The Free Spins feature can be retriggered at any time. Just land 3 or more extra Scatters to get a new portion of freebies. You should also be aware of the fact that there is an option to buy the feature. Players may buy 6, 8, or 10 free spins, for a certain price of course.
Another video slot themed after Ancient Egypt may not be as successful as expected, given the fact that there are so many games with the same topic out there. However, the BetSoft product is quite interesting, offering Mystery Chests as the main attraction. These Chests carry different surprises and can deliver various goodies if you manage to land them. BetSoft managed to combine several video slots and create a new game that may seem familiar to spinners.
