Tomb of Dead Power 4 Slots Slot – Free Demo

Four windows spinning the same tomb raid

Let's just begin by stating that the initial impression was far from the best, and at first glance, it seems crowded, unexciting and lifeless. Four separate 5-reel windows spin at the same time, which accounts for a fair share of the crowding. It lacks that additional dimension you wish to see in a slot. The extras amount to a wild that is always active and a single bonus round. Everyone knows, however, that even basic slots can turn into classics. That is why I kept spinning the reels to probe deeper into the unknown. The stake was 0.50 per window, 2.00 in total, from a starting balance of 1,000.00.

That additional dimension I was discussing frequently arrives in the form of a solid tale and distinct figures. The figures on offer here are the explorer, the pharaoh, Anubis and the winged scarab. It is a major challenge for game creators to fit that into a slot. The best example that leaps to mind is Legacy of Ra Megaways, from Blueprint's own shelf, and Tomb of Dead Power 4 Slots does have a tale. The four windows then run that same tale side by side. But the creators fail to make it come to life.

Tomb of Dead Power 4 Slots is a video slot played across four game windows simultaneously. The stake control is set per window, and the status bar shows the resulting total bet for all four. Each one is a 5-reel, 3-row layout with 10 fixed paylines, 40 in total, and it is playable on all devices. At 0.50 per window that put my total bet at 2.00 a spin. Players are invited to join the tomb raid and unlock the golden chests of the pharaoh. The game includes a wild that is always active and a Tomb of Dead Bonus with free spins across up to 4 windows. There are special expanding symbols inside the bonus.

The tale of Tomb of Dead Power 4 Slots unfolds somewhere in an Egyptian burial chamber. Egyptian Sun is another Egyptian-themed slot on the site if that is the setting you are after. It has kind of a dusty adventure type appearance and feel to it, and the multiplied reelset is placed against a motionless backdrop. That backdrop gives players the impression of standing in front of four slots at once.

The golden tomb does three jobs

The paytable is simple and it is shown in cash. Because it is printed in cash, the numbers on it move as soon as the stake does. Symbols on the reels comprise 5 low-value symbols in the form of card ranks from 10 to Ace, as well as 5 high paying symbols depicted by the golden tomb, the explorer, the pharaoh, Anubis and the winged scarab. Ace and King share one prize level, and Queen, Jack and 10 share a lower one. The highs pay from just 2 of a kind and the card ranks from 3. That gives a high symbol four winning lengths on a line where a card rank has three.

There is a scatter symbol present in the game, and it is the golden tomb itself. It sits at the top of the paytable as well. It also functions as the wild for all symbols and plays a very central role.

Ten free spins and four windows at once

In terms of features, the game contains the Tomb of Dead Bonus, which activates when 3 or more golden tombs land. The same symbol pays as a scatter for 3, 4 or 5 at the same time. One symbol therefore carries the wild, the scatter and the bonus trigger. A wheel then grants the free spins along with the number of windows that remain active, up to all 4. The wheel segment shown on the help screen is 10 free spins with 4 windows, and during the bonus, special expanding symbols come into play. Ten free spins with all four windows still running works out at forty window-spins.

Minty’s Expert Conclusion: Three hundred and ninety spins at 2.00 returned 46.8% of what went in, and the wheel stayed shut the whole way, so everything the bonus is supposed to do sat on the other side of a symbol that never turned up three deep. The base game on its own paid 71 times, 29 of those for less than the stake.

390 spins and no golden tomb trio

The ceiling on paper is 50,000 times the total bet per single spin. That figure is measured against the total bet for all four windows, not the 0.50 sitting in one of them. It's quite a brutal game. My balance peaked at 1,005.60 on the very first spin and never went above it again. Across 390 spins at 2.00 a spin I wagered 780.00 and received 364.80 back, a return of 46.8%. It finished at 584.80, which was also the lowest point of the run. There were only 71 paying spins, with 29 of those paying less than the stake. The five best spins came in at 36.00, 34.00, 22.00, 16.40 and 16.00. The golden tomb never landed three or more times, so I never reached the wheel at all. That leaves the expanding symbols untested as well. The largest hit of the entire run was 36.00, or 18 times the total bet.

Busy screens, dull returns

Visually, Tomb of Dead Power 4 Slots seems busy but drab, as if something is absent. It fails miserably to captivate me, and I simply don't sense the excitement nor intensity. An online slot that carries the potential for enormous wins still needs to land something along the way. It doesn't occur here unfortunately, and a 39-spin dry stretch near the close of my session is not it.
