Blaze Of Ra review

Theme and Style

The Blaze of Ra slot focuses on the ancient Egyptian god Ra. This falcon-headed deity stands watch over the reels with his predatory eyes locked on the player’s actions. He stands atop a rock that is whipped about by a fog of blown sands, as the pyramids loom large in the background.

Blaze of Ra pits the player in a game of chance against the gods. The player will need some luck and maybe even divine intervention to beat the god and escape with the treasures.

This game brings a new angle to a well-worn slot theme and will appeal to fans of ancient Egyptian myth as well as specific fans of the myth of Ra.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

Blaze of Ra is a slot with beautiful imagery. The animated avatar of Ra that stands over the game strikes his staff to spin the reels and set the player on a new path of fate.

The reels themselves are prettily drawn with a 3D look and some highly polished hieroglyphic-inspired visuals—a lotus flower, an ankh, and various gods, appear on the symbols along with the usual melange of ace to jack symbols.

Gameplay

This slot, Blaze of Ra, has five reels. Each reel has four rows on it, allowing plenty of space for the forty winlines.

A simple bonus feature provides some variety (more details below), but like Blaze of Ra’s slot theme, everything is pretty classic with just a hint of a twist.

For example, there is a simple nudge feature that gives players a free respin when two or more stacked Wilds land on a reel. The Wilds are nudged down two extra places and the rest of the symbols are spun for a second time.

On any given round, the player’s maximum win is capped at 2,000x the player’s bet.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild symbols carry an image of Ra on them and substitutes for all other symbols. The exception is the Bonus symbol that has a scarab image on it.

The Bonus symbol always islands with either a 1 or a 2 on it. When three or more Bonus symbols land anywhere on the reels, the Free Spin Bonus will trigger. The number of spins is dictated by the sum of all the numbers on the Bonus symbols.

During the Free Spins, the winning combinations available to the player skyrocket as reels one, three, and five are entirely turned into Wild symbols. These Wilds remain in place until the end of the Free Spin Bonus.

The bonus fits neatly into this slot's mix of traditional slot features with subtle twists.

Bet Sizes, RTP and Variance

Blaze of Ra has an RTP of 96.40%. This is a little bit higher than our yardstick for average which is a rough 96%.

The range of bets on the site we tested ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.40 up to a maximum of $/£/€100.00 per spin.

The volatility of the Blaze of Ra slot is at the low end of high (or the high end of medium). This medium-high volatility slot is a moderately good match for our preferred slot machine strategies. In general, we prefer to use high-volatility, high-RTP slots where possible.

Conclusion

Fans of ancient Egyptian myth will find a lot that is familiar in this slot. However, it avoids falling into the lazy runs worn by the many hundreds of other ancient Egyptian-themed slots.

The gameplay is similarly classic, with small twists to keep things interesting and to keep the sun god Ra entertained.

While the volatility and RTP are both only a little above middling, the overall feel of the slot is good, and we can recommend it to anyone with an interest in Egyptology.
