TOURNAMENTSA storm rages, the pyramid's corridors sink into dust and the explorer Katie needs you to survive. Katie Combs: Gold of the Nile takes you on an archaeological expedition into the heart of ancient Egypt, in search of buried treasure. Signed by Air Dice, this casino dice game weaves dice placement together with a treasure hunt, under the eye of the god Anubis. Casino King opens the doors of the tomb for you.
Head for the sands of ancient Egypt, amid thousand-year-old pyramids, carved hieroglyphs and golden glow. You play the guide to Katie, a brave adventuress in the vein of the great explorers, hot on the trail of the gold of the Nile. Scarlet rubies, glittering Ankhs and precious artefacts line the dark, dusty corridors, while Anubis, guardian of the afterlife, watches over the treasures. The atmosphere, at once mysterious and spellbinding, sets up an irresistible backdrop of adventure.
The game rests on Air Dice's in-house dice foundation: four grids of three by three cells, for twenty paylines in all, at five per grid. On every turn, you strategically place your columns of dice across the four grids to form winning combinations. That slice of decision, where each placement counts, gives the title a tactical dimension that sets it apart from a mere game of chance, and rewards attentive players.
The real thrill begins when you line up three red ruby dice on a single line: that trigger opens the Treasure Hunt bonus, the treasure hunt itself. You then take charge of the explorer's route, choosing her next move through the maze of the pyramid yourself. This safer passage, earned by the sweat of the dice, turns the tomb into a playground where every decision can lead to fortune.
During the treasure hunt, keep your eyes open. The precious artefacts you pick up along the way convert into cash points, while the red rubies directly trigger a mystery game. And if you get your hands on a golden Ankh, the Egyptian cross of life, your reward is purely and simply doubled. Every find therefore weighs in the balance, literally and figuratively, and urges you to explore ever further.
The mystery game is won in two ways: directly, by collecting enough red rubies during the bonus, or at the end of the route, when Anubis weighs your finds against your heart, following the Egyptian ritual. Either way, the mummified god presents you with five cups holding three, five, seven, ten and twenty-five mystery games respectively. You choose one after the shuffle, then play them out on the main game, where every level rewards the maximum prize.
The return-to-player rate reaches 96.00%, a generous value for a richly featured dice game. Stakes run from €0.25 to €25 per game, a range suited to cautious budgets and bolder players alike. The medium volatility ensures a pleasant balance between steady wins and standout moments, with a win ceiling set at 2500 times the stake. The title offers no jackpot: it is the bonus features that concentrate all the potential.
The expedition carries on across every screen: the game adapts smoothly to smartphone, tablet and computer, sacrificing none of its atmosphere. Before risking a single cent, a demo mode invites you to roam the pyramid's corridors, test the dice placement and discover the treasure hunt with play-money credits — the ideal moment to get to grips with Anubis's mechanics before setting off for real to conquer the gold.
