Cairo Link & Win

Turn your eyes to the east with Cairo Link & Win, the online slot from Gold Coin Studios. This Egyptian-themed game takes players on a tour of a secret chamber where there's the chance to collect potential riches. Hit the top combination, and it's possible to win up to x10,000. 

Gold Coin Studios aren't one of the most well-known studios in the industry, but there's still an incredible catalogue of titles to choose from. You can play some of their other online slots here at bwin, such as Fiona's Fortune and AbraCatDabra. 

Cairo Link is played on a 5x3 grid which includes 20 traditional paylines. Betting starts at 0.20 per spin and can be increased up to 25.00 max stake. This is a fairly modest range, but it's countered by a high volatility and a top potential win of x10,000. The RTP is just above the average at 96%, although there's no guarantee of what will happen in a single session. 

Players are taken to what appears to be some kind of underground chamber where the lights are low, and there's not a soul in sight. The ceiling is held up by ornamental pillars, and there are ornate engravings just visible all around. The mood is elegant but low-key as players start their move towards the reels.  

On the paytable, the entry symbols are the usual playing cards which run from 10 to A. The premium symbols include Anubis, Horus, Bastet, and Cleopatra.  

There is also a wild which can substitute for any of the regular symbols to help players create more winning matches. 

There are some bonus features on this slot which can switch up the play and add an entertaining twist.  

Land the Eye of Ra symbol on both reels 1 and 2, and the board will expand to add two extra rows on reels 3-5. If players then go on to land between 1-5 special Link & Win symbols, the value will be instantly paid out via the Express Collect bonus.  

Scatters can be found on the board, and landing three or more in either the base game or the Expanded Reels feature will deliver ten free spins. In addition, reel 3 will only display either Link & Win symbols or wilds.  

If three Link & Win symbols land on reel 3, they will be copied across to reels 2 and 4, thus triggering the Link & Win feature.  

The Link & Win feature can be triggered at any time by landing six or more Link & Win symbols on the reels. Players get three spins which will reset if they land another Link & Win symbol. The bonus feature finishes when the player runs out of respins or the grid is filled up, triggering a top payout of the Mega prize pot of x10,000. Special symbols awarding prize pots of x10, x50 and x1000 can also be won.

Cairo Link & Win from Gold Coin Studios looks rather basic, but there's a myriad of bonus features making it a big hit for even more experienced players.
