Luxor Gold Hold and Win Review

Playson have been around for so many years now that we’ve already stopped counting. It’s great to see that they are still doing well, though many of their recent releases have been a bit short on the innovation side of things. Luxor Gold Hold and Win is a continuation of that trend, as it’s basically a remix of the basic Hold and Win formula. That doesn’t have to make for a bad gaming experience, however, so let’s get down to the details. The playing field of the slot is classic, offering 5 reels, 3 rows and 25 paylines.

The classic Egyptian theme is in full swing in Luxor Gold Hold and Win, with little to no twists. The graphics are modern and slick, but we’ve all already seen this before, so don’t expect any surprises. We understand why there are so any Egyptian-themed slots out there, but it does seem like the easy way out for many designers, and it’s hard to be impressed.

The mathematical model of Luxor Gold Hold and Win offers a medium-high volatility level and a solid 5,524x jackpot.

Luxor Gold Hold and Win Slot Features

There are 8 standard pay symbols in Luxor Gold Hold and Win, and they are split evenly between low-paying ones and high-paying ones. For the former, there are just card ranks from Jacks to Aces, while the latter are more thematic. Even then, though, it’s nothing that we haven’t seen before, with various hieroglyph-like symbols on offer.

It gets more interesting when we get to the slot’s special symbols, which include Cleopatra Wilds, Vase Scatters, and Coins.

Find 3 Vase Scatters on the board to launch the Free Spins feature with 8 free spins. Retriggers are possible, with the same formula – get 3 Vase Scatters to receive 8 extra free spins. The most important detail, though, is that the game uses a different set of reels during free spins. The difference. There are no low-paying symbols on them, which makes it easier to get big wins!

Land 6 or more Coins anywhere on the playing field to trigger the Hold and Win feature, which works exactly as it usually does. You’ll get 3 respins, and you can get only Coins during the feature, with all such symbols also resetting the tally of respins back to 3. The feature continues until you either fill the entire board with Coins, or run out of free spins.

What makes the Hold and Win feature a bit more spicy is the presence of two special types of Coins. There are Mystery Coins, which randomly transform into Jackpot Coins at the end of the feature.

Finally, there’s also the random Treasure Chest feature that can trigger the Hold and Win feature even without the necessary number of Coins on the board.

Review Summary

While Luxor Gold Hold and Win is by all means a rock-solid release from Playson, its clear lack of fresh ideas and innovations means that it will please only die-hard fans of the Hold and Win genre. It’s not much of an issue, sure, but how many of such slots do we really need – and don’t we already have enough?
