Theme of The Game
While this is a slot machine that takes us to Ancient Egypt, there is something to set it apart from the hundreds of other games that do the same thing. That would be its connection to Amun, the god of air. His evolution across the centuries eventually turned him into a joint deity with Ra, and he was called Amun-Ra then. It’s an important deity then, so definitely worth it of a slot machine dedicated to him.
The first impression is not a great one, we’ve definitely seen slot machines that look better, but if you take a closer look I think you will appreciate the attention to detail in its major symbols. Besides the lower valued Royals, six of them from 9 to A, there are also top symbols with the Scarab, Bastet, Horus, and Pharaoh. Pyramids and Eagles are used for some of the feature symbols.
Developer
Microgaming (now Games Global’s collection) has a lot of great games, but it’s not always their own work. It’s the case with Mask of Amun as well, a slot that was designed by Fortune Factory Studios. This small company also created games like Village People Macho Moves, or Showdown Saloon.

How To Play It
Once you’ve selected a bet, you can start playing Mask of Amun. The cost is somewhere between $0.20 and $50 for a spin.
These days, finding a setup with 4096 ways to win is not at all unusual. The basis for such a game area is 6×4 reels. Combinations are formed left to right, with matching symbols that land on 2-3 or more adjacent reels.
Special Features
One feature that you’re going to pay attention to, the Collect mechanic gets you paid whenever you have both Collect symbols on the 1st or 6th reels, and Cash or Jackpot symbols anywhere else. The Jackpot symbols can deliver one of several fixed jackpots, while Cash icons pay less but they’re easier to get.
Via Pyramid Wilds that will land on the last 5 reels (reels 2-6), you get some help when you’re creating new winning combinations. These symbols are only useful as substitutes if they appear next to regular symbols, so they don’t do anything for feature symbols, such as scatters, Collect or Cash/Jackpot.
The Bonus symbol will be required to appear on 3 or more reels, but it doesn’t matter which reels this happens on. The rewards vary from 8 free spins or 2 Gold Blitz Spins if you had 3 scatters, to 30 spins or 7 Gold Blitz Spins if you had all 6 scatters.
During free spins you will find that the wilds are limited to just 3 reels (2, 3, and 4), but they gain a random multiplier (2x to 5x). Getting 2-6 more scatters retriggers the feature, with 5-30 more rounds.
If you choose the Gold Blitz Spins, you get 1+ Collect symbols to appear each round, and you’re guaranteed to win something each round. These spins have only Collect, Jackpot, and Cash symbols.
Maximum Payouts
Considering how many ways to win are available, or the multipliers that can apply via wilds during free spins, I’d expect even bigger rewards than the ones mentioned by the game. Mask of Amun pays up to 5,000x the stake, comes with high volatility, but you can find it in versions with the RTP at 96%.
Summary
Mask of Amun is not a bad slot machine, particularly if you want interesting features first and foremost. It doesn’t pay a lot for a high volatility slot though, and the graphics are only average-looking.
