Coins are persistent within a bet level, so if a player walks away with a number of reels with 1/2 of the coins filled in, especially on reels to the left, there’s a higher advantage potential in getting the reels to turn wild. The coins and wild reels are the advantage opportunity in this case. Understanding the Advantage Wilds and coins accrued stay around even if you cash out, meaning finding a machine that’s in this mode is a short-term Advantage Play scenario. It is possible for multiple reels to be wild at the same time, which can lead to some strong line-up potential. When two coins are collected, the reel will turn wild for two spins.
Whenever a coin lands on a reel, it is collected and placed into one of the two slots at the top of the reels. The game has five bet levels, and many times can be found in a multi-denomination format, like many other games with a persistent reel state. In the main game there’s also a way to get reels of wilds by collecting coins. The game is a 5×4 reel with 75 lines, so there’s a decent amount of ways to line symbols up. Wild reels and a bonus with volatility options similar to Scarab make this one a fun one. It’s similar to the previously reviewed Ocean Song on this site, but Golden Egypt came first. Golden Egypt is a typical persistent state game from IGT, offering some standard Advantage Play features. What Makes it Special: Collect two coins to make a reel wild for two spins.
