There is no time to waste when there is a damsel in distress and a treasure waiting to be found. Golden Ark is another Novomatic favourite that has hit the online casino gaming scene. With 5 reels and 10 paylines, players are in for a treat with this medium to high variance slot. Bonus features include free spins and a random bonus symbol that will provide lucrative winning moments.
Symbols and Soundtrack
When it comes to the graphics of the slot players will definitely see a resemblance to the Book of Ra slot. The backdrop of the slot is an entrance to one of the gorgeously designed Egyptian temples and at the top of the reels you will notice a similar Egypt backdrop of the pyramids that can be found in the Book of Ra series, the only difference being the colouring. On the reels you will find symbols of the Eye of Horus, mysterious Hieroglyphics, a gold statue, and the ancient book of treasures and of course the missing researcher. The lower value symbols of the slot are regular card playing values that have been modified to fit the design of the theme. The iconic Novomatic soundtrack accompanies the slot game so while it might not be related to the theme it definitely reminds you which developer designed it. Don’t worry, if it gets too much you can always opt to mute the sound.
Bonus Features
The wild of the slot is the ancient book of treasures and it substitutes for all other symbols except the scatter. These wilds can show up anywhere on the reels and will replace any other symbols to form bigger and more frequent winning combinations.
The scatter of the slot is the Eye of Horus symbol and finding three or more of these anywhere on the reels will lead to a fabulous 10 free spins. Before the spins start one other symbol will randomly be selected as a bonus symbol. This symbol will expand to cover an entire reel each time it forms part of a winning combination. If you land three or more additional scatters during the free games you will receive 10 more free spins.
The slot comes with the standard Novomatic gamble feature that can be activated manually after any winning spin. In this feature you have to guess the colour of the next card drawn for a chance to double up on your winnings. Remember that any wrong guesses will lead to you losing your winnings.
