Slot machine details and review Rise of Horus
Rise of Horus, a slot machine thatβs offered by Evoplay, belongs to the Egypt category. It has the same inspiration as a lot of other online slots, using Ancient Egyptβs deities and hieroglyphs to make its reels interesting. As for the game area that you play on, this slot offers 5 reels, but with an expanding system that allows it to go from 3 symbols per reel (with 243 ways to win), all the way up to 7 symbols (and 16,807 ways) during free spins.
Every slot machine must be developed by a company that invented, designed and put it into operation. Many players eventually find that they only enjoy playing on machines from specific software provider, so they narrow down their selection by preferred brand.
A slot with medium volatility. Wins are less frequent, but more often of higher value. The game is less stable and you can expect longer periods without winning, suitable for players who can tolerate higher risk and are more after bigger wins. More about volatility here.
Slot theme and symbols
The Ancient Egypt theme thatβs been chosen for this particular game is not unusual. Itβs one of the more common themes that you can get from any slot right now, so itβs going to be difficult for any game to stand out in such a huge crowd based on visuals alone. Rise of Horus is an older title as well, released back in 2020, and the graphics used inside arenβt as good as those weβve seen in newer slots. The mix of hieroglyphs and deities has the advantage of not bringing unrelated icons to the game area, which I appreciated.
Rise of Horus theme and symbols
Gameplay-wise, Rise of Horus is considered by most to be a fair game. If youβre curious about it, a good idea might be to check out the slotβs demo and see what itβs like. What you will likely discover is that itβs a Medium to High volatility release. The developer mentions that it will pay as much as 4,905x the stake, while the long-term returns (RTP) are expected to amount to 96.04% of whatβs wagered inside.

WILD symbol
Forming winning combinations is possible via regular symbols, but there is also a wild symbol that can lend a hand. The wild symbols may only appear on reels 2, 3, and 4. They are used as substitutes for the regular symbols, so not for scatters.
Horus Gift Random Event
Following a losing spin, the game may randomly trigger a random event for you. Itβs called Horus Gift, and it is offered only during paid spins. It will pick up to 3 low-value symbols to turn them into wilds. This happens on the middle three reels.
Scatter symbol
The scatter symbol is the one with the image of the golden scarab. These are reserved for paid spins only.
Respins
If you get a scatter symbol to land on the 3rd reel, it will give you access to a Respin, while also increasing the game area to 5×5 reels. Reels 2 and 4 are turned into Glowing Reels for this Respin, and this gives you better odds of triggering the free spins. Get more scatters on Glowing Reels to add a final Respin. The final respin gets all reels turned into Glowing Reels.
Free Spins
The number of scatters that landed on the reels during respins will decide the number of free spins that you receive (1 spin per scatter). The game area expands for this feature to 5×7 reels with 16,807 ways to win. A single regular symbol is chosen to become stacked (3 symbols high) for the duration of this feature.

Our rating of the game
Rise of Horus
Rise of Horus is an average-looking slot machine, particularly in the huge Ancient Egypt-themed category. The volatility (Medium-High), its top prize (up to 4,905x), and RTP (96.04%) all say the same thing: that itβs the sort of experience that you can get elsewhere. When it comes to special features, it stands out both through its reel-expanding system and the way you trigger and then play through the free spins. Itβs not unique, but neither does it feel like a typical main feature. Given its increased volatility, I would recommend it to a more experienced player who doesnβt mind a dated design.

How do we rate slot machines?
We evaluate slot machines based on multiple criteria, from which we make our final verdict.
A top prize of 4,905x the roundβs stake is considered OK for a game like this, with medium to high volatility.
The RTP is at 96.04%, a long-term return that is considered adequate in a slot machine.
It comes with a Respin feature, which adds a bit of excitement and may lead to a bigger feature.
Its free spins offer includes both a stacked symbol and a bigger game area.
Expanding reels, going either up to 3,125 ways to win for respins, or up to 16,807 ways for free spins.
Doesnβt use unrelated symbols, so itβs either hieroglyphs or deities on its reels.
Cons
Has an Ancient Egypt theme that you can get from literally thousands of other slots.
Dated graphics, not very attractive or suited for a modern audience thatβs looking for eye candy.
With Medium to High volatility, itβs going to be a difficult slot for beginners who give it a chance.
