Hot Rise Games and Yggdrasil unveil Hidden Egypt DoubleMax

The leading provider of iGaming content, Yggdrasil, announced it joined forces with Hot Rise Game for the release of a new thrilling slot game in collaboration ReelPlay. The new slot, called Hidden Egypt DoubleMax, successfully fuses two popular themes, namely a steampunk theme and an Ancient Egypt theme. Not unexpectedly, the game comes packed with engaging features and grants a chance for big payouts.

The new high-volatility slot game offers a maximum multiplier of x20,000 and a maximum win of €240,000. The latest slot game, developed by Hot Rise Games, which has an ongoing agreement with ReelPlay, offers 5 reels and 3 rows. Hidden Egypt DoubleMax offers a variable RTP with 96.1% as the highest and 86% as the lowest. While the standard bet for the slot game is €0.60, players can wager a minimum of €0.30 and a maximum of €12.

Similar to other slot games from Yggdrasil, Hidden Egypt DoubleMax supports desktop PCs, as well as Android and Apple devices. In addition to a wide range of currencies, the slot game is available in nearly 30 languages, making it suitable for deployment across the globe.

As the name of the slot game suggests, it features Yggdrasil's fan favorite DoubleMax mechanic, offering lucrative free spins bonus and respins. Moreover, the new game is powered by the provider's state-of-the-art technology, GATI. This allows Hidden Egypt DoubleMax to be rapidly distributed to new markets via a preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardized development toolkit.

David Johnson, ReelPlay's CEO, shared his excitement about the recently released slot game in a statement. "We’re delighted to help bring to market Hot Rise’s freshest game with our partners at Yggdrasil," he explained. Finally, Johnson pointed out: "This latest collaboration utilizes a popular Yggdrasil mechanic combined with Hot Rise game design to provide players with some great re-playable features including the exciting DoubleMax respins."

Zoe Bird, Yggdrasil's Senior Product and Program Manager, was just as excited about the latest announcement. She explained: "Hidden Egypt DoubleMax is a terrific addition to our extensive portfolio of DoubleMax titles and we’re confident that operators and players will thoroughly enjoy what Hot Rise Games have delivered with this creative title."

Players of Hidden Egypt DoubleMax who land a wild symbol in the middle position on the third reel will trigger a respin. This respin will be triggered again every time a wild symbol appears. At the same time, a multiplier will continue growing on each retrigger, starting from 2x, increasing to 4x, 8x, 16x and so on.

On the other hand, players who land three scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will activate the game's free spins. Once this happens, they secure five free spins. "DoubleMax respins can be triggered during this feature, during which respin wilds are held for two spins instead of one," explained Yggdrasil.
