Egyptian Dreams Deluxe

By Becky M. | Updated 13 November 2024

Habanero is amongst what could be best described as the ‘squashed middle’ when it comes to software developers in the online casino world.

There is a host of names that stand on the level below the giants such as Microgaming and NetEnt, and they’re fighting for supremacy, with Habanero one of many trying to make an impact with every new slot release.

However, sometimes it is necessary to go backwards in order to go forwards, and that is clearly the logic Habanero have with the release of Egyptian Dreams Deluxe, a revamped version of one of their popular slots.

About the slot

With five reels and 243 ways to win the base game (rising to 3,125 ways to win if you’re lucky) Egyptian Dreams Deluxe has a 96.64% RTP and is playable from 25p all the way up to a staggering £5,000 per spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.

The Egyptian theme is nothing particularly new or fresh, and very little is done here to update it in any way, in fact, it looks old-fashioned and out of date if anything.

Predictable symbols and imagery can be found throughout, making the look of this slot no improvement on the original.

Gameplay

However, when it comes to features, there is a lot more to get excited about here, not least due to a fixed jackpot of up to £100,000.

That’s not all there is to be found here in terms of features either, with free spins being triggered by either unlocking scarabs, or landing between two and five scatter symbols on adjacent reels for between 10 and 30 spins.

The free spins feature can retrigger 30 spins if you unlock all scarabs during the feature too.

This slot is a game of two halves, in terms of design it is disappointing to say the least, but the gameplay might just make up for it.
