Game Symbols
There are no card deck symbols available in the Secrets of Horus online slot game. Ancient Egyptians use a formal writing system that combines logographic and alphabetic elements known as Egyptian hieroglyphs, and these are what they have used in the slot game Secrets of Horus such as: Vulture (A), Sphinx (L), Hand (D), Chick (U), Stone Blade (G), Palm Leaves (Y), and other Egyptian symbols such as Eye of Horus, Egyptian Ring, Knoptic Jar, Egyptian Falcon, and the Scroll.
The Wild Symbol is the Horus symbol. The Horus wild symbol acts as a substitute for all other symbols and it can also multiply the payout, with the exception of the scatter symbol. The Horus wild symbol doubles (multiplier x2) the payout of any winning combination it completes, as long as it acts as a substitute symbol. Multiple Horus wild symbols on an active pay line create winning combinations, as shown in the Paytable. Do take note that the Horus wild symbol winning combination payouts are not doubled. Also, there is only 1 winning combination to be paid out per pay line. If you get more than 1 possible winning combination on a pay line, you are then paid out the value of the highest combination only.
The Scatter Symbol is the Scarab. The Scatter symbol (Scarab) does not need to come out in a line on an enabled pay line for you to win. If you hit 3 or more of this scatter symbol (which are scattered anywhere on the 5 reels), you will activate the Free Spin Bonus Feature game where you can win up to 15 free spins!
Do take note that if you get a scatter win and a regular win, you will be paid out for both of them, because the Scarab scatter symbol is not needed to appear on an enabled pay line to win. Scatter rewards are entirely independent from pay line awards and they are added to the pay line win.
