Giza Infinity Reels slot review (ReelPlay)

Giza Infinity Reels – A new concept with surprising results

ReelPlay is a new Australian provider trying to make an impact like Big Time Gaming has. ReelPlay started making slots in 2019, and their third one was El Dorado Infinity Reels and the first Infinity Reels slot).

With Netent (who released Gods of Gold Infinireels), both trademarked this new concept. There are some subtle differences between the Infinity Reels and the Infinireels mechanics. The idea is the same, though: the number of reels expands after each win and (theoretically) till infinity.

Giza Infinity Reels is a follow up of El Dorado Infinity Reels. What’s new is that this slot has the Buy a Bonus feature, whereas El Dorado does not.

The win potential is substantial (max win is 10,000x) but not extraordinary.

A new concept is always great, and the idea of getting an infinite number of reels is exciting.

 

Gameplay and Features

Giza Infinity Reels starts with 3 reels with 4 symbols each and works with the Infinity reels mechanic.

The idea is simple: after each win, you gain a free re-spin, and at the same time, you’ll see an additional reel on the right. Besides, you get an increased win multiplier (goes up by +1).

If, for example, you win three consecutive times, you end up with 6 reels and with a win multiplier of x4.

It’s an Egyptian themed slot, and the four high-paying symbols are the animals Horus, Maahes, Sobek, and Anubis. The lows are the ankh, eye, lotus and crook and flail symbols.

The SCARABs are the Wild symbols, and the PYRAMIDS are the Scatters.

How does ReelPlay’s payout table work?

The payout structure is incredibly confusing, but I try to explain it.

You need to have at least five identical symbols. Take, for example, the Sobek (crocodile) symbol. It has a value of 4. If you manage to land 5 Sobeks, you get paid out 20 coins. Divide this amount by 20, and the win is 1x.

If you get 6 Sobeks, you win 24 coins, equivalent to 1.2x the bet. 10 Sobeks yields 40 coins and therefore 2.0x and so forth.

It does not seem to increase a lot, but remember that your win multiplier increases by +1 after a re-spin (and reel addition). So that helps. Imagine if you have 10 Sobeks after three reel expansions. That gets you a win multiplier of x4 and, therefore, an 8.0x win (2.0x multiplied by 4=8.0x).

The good news is that if you manage to get 12 or more reel expansions (so you’ll need to have at least 15 reels), the win multiplier expands to an insane 888x.  Now, that’s more like it!

How do you get the free spins?

If you land a PYRAMID win (so at least 5 PYRAMIDS), you gain 10 free spins. Do it during the free spins, and you win another 4 free spins.

Alternatively, you make use of ReelPlay’s Buy a Bonus Feature. For 75x the original bet, you get a guaranteed PYRAMID win with your next spin.

The free spins – the multiplier increments can go up to +5

The main advantage is that the win multiplier does not reset, after a loss. Besides, the increments can be as high as +5. If you manage to win several consecutive times and get consecutive reel expansions, it can go very rapidly. A win multiplier of say 30x or even 50x is not unusual. And in the best case, indeed a fantastic 888x!

The free spins – the Gamble feature

At the end of the free spins, you can benefit from the Gamble feature to expand the size of your winnings.

Giza Infinity Reels slot: the payout rate (RTP) is 96.6% – 97.0%

The RTP of Giza Infinity Reels is 96.6% which is pretty substantial. But if you decide to buy the free spins with the Buy a Bonus feature, the RTP is even better: 97.0%.

Giza Infinity Reels slot: the variance (volatility) is medium to high

Giza Infinity Reels has a medium to high variance, and the max win is 10,000x.

Given the 888x multiplier, when you land at least 15 reels, it tells us that wins of thousands of times the bet are realistic.
