Scarab Rising Megaways from Blueprint Gaming mixes a classic Egyptian setting with Blueprint’s usual collection mechanics, feature trails, and layered bonus systems. With up to 15,625 ways to win, several unlockable modifiers, and two separate bonus rounds, there’s quite a bit happening across both the base game and bonus features.
Scarab Rising Megaways uses a familiar Egyptian online slots setting, the reels sit inside an ancient temple with pyramids visible in the distance under a bright blue sky. Golden decorations, glowing scarabs, and stone walls surround the grid, while green plants in the foreground help break up the heavy desert visuals.
Nothing really jumps out about the overall presentation, including the soundtrack, which sticks with dramatic drums and mystical background music but then, originality is not one of the main attractions of Egyptian slots, is it? Overall though, the presentation hits the usual high standard of Blueprint Gaming.
Four random modifiers can appear during the base game:
At the beginning of the game, Collect symbols only appear on reel 6. When a Cash Prize symbol lands alongside a Collect symbol, all visible values are gathered together. As more collect symbols appear over time, additional collection mechanics become available.
The Feature Trail gradually unlocks permanent upgrades throughout the session. Dual Collect adds Collect symbols to reel 1, while Streak Collect introduces respins with locked Cash Prize symbols. Boost Collect increases collected values, and Multi-X Collect allows prizes to be gathered multiple times during the same feature.
Later stages unlock the Fortune Chest symbol and eventually the Scarab Blitz Super Spin Bonus.
Landing enough scatter symbols awards Scarab Spins or access to the Scarab Blitz Super Spin feature and all unlocked trail features remain active. Extra spins and multipliers can also be added by Collect symbols. These multipliers climb steadily, eventually reaching x10 collected values.
This feature focuses entirely on Cash Prize symbols and special collect mechanics with a guaranteed collect symbol lands on reel 1 and/or reel 6 while cash values fill the reels. Retriggers are possible by collecting enough symbols during the spin, and Pick A Key bonuses can award extra spins and additional multipliers.
Scarab Rising Megaways uses six reels with between two and five rows visible at any time. The Megaways setup creates up to 15,625 ways to win and wins form when matching symbols land on adjacent reels from left to right.
Although the reels themselves are straightforward, the collection mechanics create most of the momentum. Unlocking additional collect abilities changes how later spins behave, particularly once Boost Collect and Multi-X Collect enter the mix.
Keep the action in the Nile delta with these games:
The visuals won’t surprise anyone familiar with ancient Egypt themes, though the animated scarabs and temple setting look polished enough but we found Scarab Rising Megaways much more feature-heavy than the average Egyptian slot. The Megaways setup already creates a fairly active reel structure, but the real focus sits with the Feature Trail and all the unlockable collect mechanics. There’s usually some kind of progression happening, which helps the game avoid feeling repetitive. Definitely one for players who enjoy layered bonus systems and collect-style gameplay, although those looking for a simple reel spinning experience might want to give it a miss.
