Desert Riches brings an Arabian Nights atmosphere to the reels at Aurion Casino. This guide explains the paylines, the golden sun wild, and how the pyramid free-spins feature pays out.
What Is Desert Riches?
Desert Riches is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with 25 paylines. Golden camels cross the dunes, oil lamps glow on the reels, scarab beetles fill the mid-value spots, and sparkling jewels sit at the top of the paytable. The game runs at a 95% RTP with medium volatility. Bets must be a multiple of 25 so every payline gets an equal share of your stake.
How to Play
Step 1: Set your bet. Choose a total bet in coins (a multiple of 25) and press Spin.
Step 2: Read the grid. Five reels stop to show a 5×3 grid of desert symbols.
Step 3: Collect line wins. Wins pay on active paylines from left to right.
Step 4: Watch for the golden sun wild. It substitutes for every symbol except the pyramid scatter, completing otherwise-missed lines.
Step 5: Trigger free spins. Landing pyramid scatters awards a free-spins round — up to 20 free spins with all wins paid at 3×, making the feature the biggest payout opportunity in the game.
Strategy Tips
- The 3× multiplier applies to every free-spin win, not just the biggest one — a run of small wins during the feature adds up fast.
- Jewels are the top regular symbol. A jewel-heavy line combined with the golden sun wild produces the largest base-game wins.
- Betting in multiples of 25 keeps every payline funded evenly — smaller, uneven bets aren't accepted.
