Can you raid the golden arks?

This Quickspin Ark of Mystery slot is a 5 reel, 20 payline game which follows our explorer and adventurer Anna on her quest for some golden wins.

Set in the pyramid tombs of Egypt, this Quickspin game follows the lines of the Book of Ra and Book of Dead slots in its overall Egyptian slot theme.

With scarabs, eye of Ra, and cross symbols as the highest paying symbols offering wins for 3 or more symbols on an active payline.

Anna herself is the highest paying of the lot with wins coming from 2 or more on an active bet line giving you wins up to 50x your bet for 5 of a kind win.

Aside from the theme and main character wins, the game play is very different from the two already popular slots we mentioned above.

Wilds are key to slot success

A medium variance game you can expect some frequent small base game wins of just over your bet with a few decent 10 – 20x ones thrown in from time to time.

Nothing that you won’t find in many other medium variance slots from the likes of Microgaming, NetEnt and Play’n GO.

The wild symbol represented as the golden Ark is what will give you some big wins. How? Well, it not only substitutes for all other symbols but when is appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 will trigger the Wild Ark Respin feature.

Wild Ark Respins with locked wilds

The wilds only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4 and when they do will give you a respin with the wild locked in place.

At the start of each respin the Wild symbol will replicated into an adjacent position and respin for as long as there is an open position on the same reel.

This can give you between 2 and 6 spins and is where we’ve gotten our biggest wins of 40x our bet. Nothing too big to shout about but still a worthy top up to the balance.

There is one more feature though that could see you get wins up to 6,509 times your bet.

Ark of Mystery Multiplier Boost

Ok so the wild re-spins are all well and good. Showing up often and often rewarding you with some above average base game wins.

But if you’re after the big big wins you’re going to want to not only have luck on your side but also find the Pyramid shaped multiplier boost symbol that appears only on reel 5.

When it does it will increase the multiplier shown above the fifth reel by 1.

If you’ve got a winning payline your win will be multiplied by that value. Find more booster symbols and you can get up to 21x the value of your win.

We’ve not seen anywhere near this type of win on our hundreds of spins unfortunately but it is possible according to the game makers at Quickspin.

Is this Ark of Mystery slot online worth a spin?

For a casino slot game that has mystery in the name the Ark of Mystery mobile slot and online game is not really that mysterious.

To be honest we’d prefer to give the Book of Dead slot or original Egyptian themed game Book of Ra Deluxe by Novomatic a spin.

Even though those wild respins show up often the payout isn’t enough to keep the excitement and thrills alive, even with an above average 96.53% theoretical return to player rate.

A max bet of 100 per spin down to a min bet of 0.20 gives everyone some chance at a spin whilst we’d say this is more for those with a little experience rather than slot beginners.

Overall an average game from Quickspin with great graphics, but doesn’t leave us with the thrilling slot adventure we are looking for.

Go try it for yourself and see if this golden ark unleashes it’s mysterious Multiplier Booster for you at our recommended casinos.
