Sand and Ashes
HacksawDescription
A medium-volatility Egyptian slot from Hacksaw, this game centres on Wild Scarab Multipliers that trigger respins and carry values up to 200x. Its maximum win is 10000 times the stake, and two separate free-spin bonus games add further routes to that figure.
How to play
A round begins with the stake chosen and the reels set in motion, with wild and scatter symbols watched for on every spin. When a Wild Scarab Multiplier lands, a respin sequence starts and keeps going until no new ones appear. Landing 3 FS symbols opens one of the bonus games instead. The slot offers autoplay, a free demo for learning the pace, and play on phones and tablets. Its medium volatility sits between calmer and more swingy titles, and the paylines and ways guide explains how wins are counted across the grid.
Theme and symbols
The setting is an ancient Egyptian desert along the Nile, with a treasury to defend against the elements. The named symbols are the Wild Scarab Multiplier and the FS scatter, which opens the bonus games.
Features
Wild Scarab Multipliers: each one triggers a respin and applies its multiplier, up to 200x, to every payline it is part of. Respins continue until nothing new lands.
Sandstorms: during respins, a Sandstorm nudges all symbols one reel to the left, which can form new winning paylines involving the scarabs.
Firestorms: during respins, a Firestorm raises the multiplier values of all Wild Scarab Multipliers on the grid.
Desert Fury Bonus Game: 3 FS symbols trigger 8 free spins with a higher chance of landing Wild Scarab Multipliers.
Storming Sphinx Bonus Game: 3 FS symbols can instead trigger 10 free spins with persistent Wild Scarab Multipliers.
The top prize is covered in the max win guide, and more titles from the studio are in all Hacksaw games or the wider slots lobby.
