Egyptian Dreams Deluxe is a Habanero slot whose five reels start with three open rows under ten stone tiles: 243 ways at a fixed 25 coins. A pharaoh landing directly under a tile opens it, adding ways up to 3,125. Two to four pyramids left to right start a re-spin with the winning ones held, and two to five pyramids award 10 to 30 free games. Habanero rates the volatility very high and lists a maximum multiplier of x2,162.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as Habanero publishes it.
The studio supplies more than one RTP, and each casino picks one: its copy shows the figure on the game's info screen.

Where Egyptian Dreams Deluxe comes from
Habanero's own site dates Egyptian Dreams Deluxe to 2018. Its catalogue also lists an older Egyptian Dreams, from 2014, as a separate game, so check the word Deluxe on the tile.
How Egyptian Dreams Deluxe works
Each reel has five spaces: the bottom three start open, the top two sit under sandstone tiles carved with a scarab. A way takes one open space per reel, so 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 243 ways at the start and 3,125 with every space open.
Ways pay 'in succession from the leftmost reel to the right', the highest win per way only. The wild is the framed pharaoh in a blue and gold headdress. It 'substitutes for all symbols except' the pyramid and pays as much as Cleopatra. Ways that start with 3 or 4 pharaohs 'terminate any subsequent combinations': as we read it, they pay as pharaohs and go no further.
What each symbol pays on a R12.50 spin
Pays at the game's opening 12.50 bet (coin 0.50, bet level 1), shown in rand, and five of a kind in stakes.
| Symbol | Five on a way | Four | Three | Five, in stakes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pharaoh (wild) or Cleopatra | R250 | R75 | R5 | 20x |
| Sphinx | R125 | R50 | R5 | 10x |
| Painted eye or boat | R100 | R37.50 | R5 | 8x |
| Papyrus scroll or camel | R75 | R30 | R2.50 | 6x |
| Pink cat or winged ankh | R50 | R25 | R2.50 | 4x |
| Scorpion or falcon pendant | R25 | R7.50 | R2.50 | 2x |
The stone tiles: a pharaoh underneath opens one
A pharaoh 'unlocks' a tile 'when appearing directly underneath' it, 'in any game mode', and the bet stays at 25 coins. Habanero's own screenshots show a pharaoh breaking the tile just above him, from the third row and from the second. One tile gone on the first reel makes 4 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 324 ways.
Every bet starts with 10 tiles, and opened tiles 'are saved for each bet configuration', coin and bet level together. As we read it, tiles opened at one coin and bet level stay with that pair when you change either.
Opening all ten in the base game awards 30 free games, added to any from the re-spin or base game. When the feature ends, the tiles of the bet in play go back to ten.
Pyramids: a re-spin, then 10 to 30 free games
The framed pyramid is the scatter, and its wins add to way wins: two pay 1x the stake, three 2x, four 10x and five 100x, or R12.50 to R1,250 at R12.50. They 'pay left to right in the base game' and 'anywhere in a feature game'.
Two to four pyramids left to right trigger 'a single re-spin' at the same bet, the winning pyramids 'locked in place'. Then 2, 3, 4 or 5 pyramids anywhere award 10, 15, 20 or 30 free games. As the locked pyramids stay, our reading of the rules is that every re-spin ends in free games. Five pyramids in the base game award 30.
Free games keep the triggering bet, pharaohs keep opening tiles, and 3 or more pyramids add 10. The game page's 'up to 60 Free Games' is the 30 for five pyramids plus the 30 for all ten tiles.
Do free-game wins pay both ways?
Habanero's game page says that 'during free games, ways pay both from right to left and left to right'. The game's own rules and Help give ways one direction, 'from the leftmost reel to the right', so check the rules screen at your casino.
Habanero's x2,162 and a very high volatility
Habanero lists a maximum multiplier of x2,162: R27,025 on a R12.50 spin. It rates the volatility very high, which describes how unevenly wins arrive, not how much comes back. That is the RTP's job, see our guide to RTP and volatility.
Around the reels: buys and the Jackpot Race
- Free games only from the reels. Habanero marks Buy Feature, SuperBet and Feature Multiplier 'No'. Free games come from pyramids or from opening every tile.
- The Jackpot Race is the casino's tool. The game lists one jackpot, the Jackpot Race, and Habanero presents the race, UP Tournaments and free spins as tools a casino switches on. Jackpots 'cannot be won during Fun Play'.
Egyptian Dreams Deluxe RTP and volatility
Habanero gives Egyptian Dreams Deluxe's return to player as about 86%, 92%, 94%, 97% or 98%, set by the operator.
That is 5 settings, and each operator picks one. The highest is 98% and the lowest 86%: a 12-point gap on the same game with the same name.
Volatility is very high: long quiet stretches, and most of the return packed into rare big hits.
Top payout: 2162x.

Pros, cons and verdict
- Every pharaoh under a tile adds ways at the same stake
- Two pyramids from reel one start a re-spin
- All ten tiles opened in the base game add 30 free games
- Pyramids pay anywhere in the free games
- The tiles reset to ten when the feature ends
- Opened tiles stay with one coin and bet level
- No feature buy
- The casino picks the RTP, from about 86% up
Each pharaoh under a tile opens ways at the same stake, and as we read the rules, two pyramids from reel one reach the free games through the re-spin. The price: tiles belong to one coin and bet level, and the end of the feature resets them. The RTP 'can not be affected by the player strategy', so read your casino's figure in Help before playing for money.
