Pharaoh’s Fortune is an Egyptian-themed IGT video slot built around a pick-and-reveal free spins bonus with a multiplier of up to 6x. It plays on five reels with 15 paylines in the base game and switches to a separate 20-line reel set for the bonus, all to the tune of “Walk Like an Egyptian” by the Bangles.

Theme, graphics and sound
The reels are dressed as the inside of a tomb, with symbols drawn in a hieroglyphic style. The art is simple next to newer video slots, but the sound sets the game apart. An instrumental clip of the Bangles’ 1986 hit “Walk Like an Egyptian” plays while the reels spin in the base game and cuts out when they stop. The bonus round gets the song with vocals. Few slots outside music-themed titles use a licensed pop song this way.
Egyptian themes are everywhere on casino floors. The best known IGT example is the Cleopatra series, which shares the setting but plays differently. If you like the theme, Sphinx is another option, and you can browse more titles in our slots section.
How the base game works
The base game is a plain line slot. The Pharaoh’s Fortune logo is the wild and substitutes for regular symbols on a payline. It is also the top-paying symbol. Most of the game’s value sits in the bonus round, so expect long stretches of small wins between features.
Pharaoh’s Fortune bonus round
The bonus starts when three Pharaoh bonus symbols land on the first three reels. You begin with three free spins at a 1x multiplier and move to a wall of stone blocks. Each block you pick adds free spins or raises the multiplier, until you reveal a block that starts the feature. A strong pick round can build up to 25 free spins with a 6x multiplier.
The free spins play on a different set of reels with 20 paylines. Each free spin is set to pay something, so the round never comes up empty, and more bonus symbols during the feature can award extra spins. Because the multiplier applies to every win in the round, the size of the payout depends heavily on how the pick stage goes.
Who should play it
Pharaoh’s Fortune has no progressive jackpot, so you are playing for the bonus round. Features do not come often, which suits players who are fine waiting for a bigger hit rather than getting frequent small bonuses.
