According to the legend, the great pyramids in Giza were built to match certain constellations in the sky. That was their way to pay respects to the gods. We are not sure that modern science has ever proved this legend to be true, but we do know for a fact that ELK Studios used the story to develop Cygnus, a six-reel video slot that offers from 4,096 up to staggering 262,144 ways to win.
Use the Avalanche feature and increase the number of rows as well as the number of ways to win. Look for multiplier Scatters on the reels to increase the win multiplier. Land Scatter on the left pillar to trigger the Free Spins feature.
ELK Studios are taking us to ancient Egypt, to the very pyramids of Giza, where we will be looking directly at the famous Cygnus constellation. All sorts of valuable gemstones will appear as symbols populating the reels, as well as Cats, Camels and Storks. Red Lucky Seven is the highest-paying regular symbol. The Wild will substitute for all regular icons, while Free Drops Scatter triggers freebies. Multiplier Scatters increase the win multiplier once they reach the bottom of the reel grid.
Once you start spinning the reels, you start with 6 reels, 4 rows and 4,096 ways to win. If you land a winning combination, thanks to the Avalanche feature, winning symbols will be removed and replaced by new icons, while a new row is added on the reels. It can go up to 8 rows and a maximum of 262,144 ways to win. Three of a kind is the minimum for landing payouts, and you need to land matching icons starting from the leftmost reel. Bet from $$0.20 to $100 per spin.
Multiplier Scatter symbols will appear on the reels and once you make them the multiplier value will increase, you can get 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, and up to 64x. After a non-winning spin, the multipliers will reset to 1x.
Bonus Scatter needs to touch the left pillar of the reel grid, which will trigger the Free Drops feature. Gamers get 7 freebies and this will be played on 8 rows and the max 262,144 ways to win. During the feature, the win multiplier will not reset after a non-winning spin.
