With its 2021 Sisters of the Sun slot, Play’n Go takes you on yet another adventure to Ancient Egypt. This time, it is a bit different since the story behind the title revolves around three goddesses and their sisterhood. Fortune smiles on the worthy, the provider says, announcing the slot that uses a 5x5 grid and the Cluster Pays mechanics. While hanging around with the sun goddesses, potentially lucrative bonus features will boost your odds of winning up to 15,000x the bet.
The game features fiery graphics with the reels set against the sun-drenched desert. On the grid, you will meet three daughters of Ra, the sun god in Ancient Egypt. Sekhmet, Hathor and Bastet are high-value icons. The rest of the positions are populated by theme-related icons, including the pearl, cat, cobra and flower. The eye of Ra with two snakes represents the game’s Wild.
To play Sisters of the Sun, you have to wager at least $0.20 whereas the maximum bet is limited to $100 per spin. Like other Play’n Go slots, this one enables players to activate up to 100 automatic spins. Winning combinations are created by landing 3 or more matching icons horizontally or vertically. What’s more, you will get paid if you combine any 3 or more goddess symbols.
The slot comes packed with bonus features, including the Cascading Wins feature triggered on any winning spin. All successful symbols will be removed, and new ones will drop down in their positions. When you create a winning combo with 3 symbols, Wild will appear in the centre instead of a standard icon. What’s more, if you clear all the symbols from the grid, you will get a bonus prize of 50x the stake.
The Eye of Ra feature is active on each spin, choosing 5 random positions on the grid. Create a cluster with a symbol affected by the Eye of Ra, and you will benefit from a multiplier increased by 1x. The multiplier will increase on cascades and reset on a new spin.
The slot also offers the Goddess Power feature that can trigger on any unsuccessful spin. The feature awards three modifiers determined by the goddess standing on the right-hand side of the screen. Sekhmet will turn one set of icons into another icon, Hathor will add up to 2 Wilds to the grid, while Bastet will remove 2 sets of symbols from the grid.
There is also the Sisterhood feature triggered by landing a single Scatter icon. It grants 1 free spin during which you will benefit from goddess modifiers and the Eye of Ra multiplier that can boost your payouts. If you clear the grid within the Sisterhood feature, you will trigger the Free Spins feature. The multiplier active within the Sisterhood feature will be transferred to free spins.
Once in, you will be able to pick from three options. Sekhmet awards 4 free spins, Hathor delivers 5 free spins, while Bastet grants 8 free spins. Within free spins, you will benefit from respective modifiers on losing spins. Also, the number of positions affected by the Eye of Ra feature increases to 10. If Scatter hits the reels within free spins, you will get extra free games, with their number depending on the option you have chosen. Up to 150 free spins can be won per trigger.
Sisters of the Sun is a breath of fresh air when it comes to slots inspired by Ancient Egypt. If you have ever played Moon Princess, the Play’n Go 2017 title, you will be familiar with the mechanics used in this one. However, the 2021 release is more volatile and awards up to 15,000x the stake. Its RTP is the industry average, sitting at 96.2%.
