Scarab Riches 2 Spin n Hold: Earn Cleopatra's Favor for Up to 25,000x Fortunes

Prepare yourself, for Storm Gaming will take you into Cleopatra’s treasury with Scarab Riches 2 Spin n Hold. Should you somehow survive the queen’s false generosity, you may gain access to her five jackpots, reaching up to 1,000x your stake, alongside an extravagant 25,000x max reward. Here’s how generous the Egyptian queen felt when I played it. 

This familiar 5x3 grid runs on 25 paylines. Across the reels, you’ll find scarabs, ancient relics, wilds, value coins, and collection symbols. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment for me was how little the base game offered in return.

During my session, I was landing wins every 7 to 8 spins, with average returns between 1.50x and 2.80x my bet. Those slower payouts steadily chipped away at my bankroll. The coin collection mechanic never really landed at the right time to secure a win during my playthrough.

Almost after 70 spins, when I landed six coins to trigger the Hold and Win feature, the results were disappointing as well. In the feature itself, I walked away with only a 29x return, despite also landing a Mini Jackpot along the way.

As for the free spins bonus round, I never managed to trigger it naturally in more than 200 spins. Eventually, I forced my way in through the bonus buy option, costing 100x my bet. To my disbelief, I finished the feature with only a 3x return across 12 free spins. After that, I decided not to push my luck any further inside this Egyptian mirage. 

For me, Scarab Riches 2 Spin n Hold turned into more of a nightmare than an adventure. As it stands, the weak base game returns and low symbol payouts make it too restrictive. Features like wild multipliers or expanding wilds could have helped balance things out a little more.
