Fury of Anubis
The Egyptian deity finally gets a game built around a multiplier that doubles on every tumble and never fully resets mid-bonus.

One reference point first. Gates of Olympus uses additive multipliers: a x5 and a x3 make x8. Fury of Anubis uses a doubling sequence. The multiplier starts at x2, then x4, x8, x16 and so on. That is a different maths model entirely.

The same number of tumbles produces a far larger final multiplier here, but only if the cluster keeps hitting. A chain that stops at tumble three caps every sequence at x4. You need long runs to reach the top. Visit the Pragmatic Play catalogue to see how this sits against the rest of the studio's grid-slot line.

How the tumble multiplier actually works

The multiplier starts at x2 on the first winning tumble and doubles after each subsequent win: x2, x4, x8, x16, x32 up to a ceiling of x1,024. It resets to zero at the end of all tumbles. No carry-over between spins in the base game.

In free spins the logic changes. The multiplier still doubles on each tumble within a spin, but it does not fall all the way to zero between spins. Instead it resets to the starting value awarded by the scatter count that triggered the bonus. Three scatters gave you x8: every spin starts at x8. Six scatters gave you x64: every spin starts at x64. That floor makes the bonus genuinely different from the base game, not a cosmetic copy.

The ceiling of x1,024 can be reached from any starting value. A bonus entered at x64 needs four more doublings. A bonus entered at x8 needs seven. The difference in probability is significant. That is why the six-scatter trigger is worth far more than the raw scatter count implies.

What does a dead spin look like here?

A dead spin is one where no eight-symbol cluster forms: no win, no tumble, no multiplier movement. It simply stays at the floor and waits. At medium volatility this game produces fewer dead spins than a high-volatility title. But when the bonus runs cold it still chains two or three zero-win spins and the multiplier never moves.

That is when a bonus bought for 400x returns 40x. It happens. My worst session: three buys at US$ 0.20 returning US$ 4, US$ 6 and US$ 11, each from an US$ 80 outlay. The maths corrects on average. The variance over a short session is real.

Free spins: scatter count matters more than most players think

Landing 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters awards 10 free spins with a starting multiplier of x8, x16, x32 or x64. Retriggering is possible: three or more scatters in the bonus reset the counter back to 10. Before the bonus begins, a gamble feature offers to double the starting multiplier. Accept and win, your floor doubles. Accept and lose, it drops back to the base level for that scatter count.

I ran approximately 60 organic bonuses across my test sessions. The scatter distribution ran as expected: most at three, a handful at four, two at five, none at six. The gamble paid off eight times and failed twelve times where I used it.

My best gamble outcome was a five-scatter trigger, gambling from x32 to x64, then a seven-tumble chain on spin three that paid 880x. My worst: a four-scatter trigger gambling from x16 to x32, losing, dropping to x16, and watching the whole bonus finish at 14x.

The lesson: the gamble feature is not free money. It is a binary bet. I now skip it unless the scatter count gives x32 or higher, where the floor is strong enough that losing the gamble is less damaging.

Bonus buy table: eight ways in, very different risk levels

Fury of Anubis has more bonus-entry options than almost any Pragmatic Play title in the Gates of Olympus family. The table below covers every tier from the brief given for this review.

The cheapest entry at 20x gives a random starting multiplier from x2 to x512. At x2 you have no floor advantage. At x512 the multiplier needs one more doubling to hit x1,024. That randomness makes the 20x buy the highest-variance option in the list.

The 100x and 200x buys give predictable floors at x8 and x16. The 800x buy at x64 gives the strongest platform. Per Pragmatic Play's paytable, the RTP on the highest buy is the same 96.52% as the base game.

My approach at US$ 0.20 a spin: the 100x buy costs US$ 20 and the 800x buy costs US$ 160. I use the 100x for regular sessions and the 800x only with a session budget of at least US$ 500 behind it. Do not buy the 800x on a budget of US$ 200; three cold bonuses and you are out. Read our USDT guide before committing to a buy session.

Is Fury of Anubis worth playing compared to Gates of Olympus?

The comparison matters because both sit in the same grid-slot genre and both carry the Pragmatic Play name. The differences are mechanical and meaningful.

Fury of Anubis is the more accessible version. Medium volatility means the base game does not drain at the pace Gates of Olympus does. The 10,000x max win beats the 5,000x ceiling of the older title on paper.

But Gates of Olympus accumulates multipliers across 15 spins without a per-spin reset. That one difference gives the older game a ceiling that feels higher in practice. If you are new to the genre, start with Sweet Bonanza to learn tumble mechanics first.

My experience playing Fury of Anubis from an African account

I tested this game at three operators from our casino shortlist, including winz.io and BC.Game. Both run the full 96.52% RTP version, confirmed in the info panel before each session. One platform I will not name was running 94.52%. That difference costs an extra US$ 200 per US$ 10,000 wagered. Always check.

Depositing USDT via TRC-20 at both operators cleared in under three minutes. That matters for a buy session where you want to top up between rounds. Players in Nigeria using OPay to buy USDT peer-to-peer should budget for the off-ramp cost first. Our Nigeria casino guide lists the P2P options that clear without excessive hold times. In Kenya, our Binance M-Pesa guide covers the deposit path step by step.

The game loads fast on mobile, even on a mid-range Android with 4G. The grid is clean and the multiplier counter is visible without squinting. Pragmatic Play did better here than some of its older titles, where the stats overlay eats into the grid on smaller screens.

Set your session budget before you start. At medium volatility this game is not a slow disaster. The bonus-buy ladder grips fast if you keep stepping up a tier after each empty round.

My verdict: 7.5 out of 10

The doubling multiplier is a real improvement over additive models. The 10,000x ceiling makes this more competitive than Gates of Olympus on paper specs. The bonus-buy table is the most granular Pragmatic Play has offered. Those are good things.

What holds it to 7.5 is the reset behaviour. A x8 starting floor is not much at medium volatility, and Bonus Buy I at 100x is the cheapest accessible entry. Three cold buys in a row at x8 with no clusters and the returns come to nothing. The toll is real.

The 400x and 800x buys solve that mechanically, but at that cost per round the game is no longer casual. I recommend it to players who want a structured bonus-buy experience with clear tiers and a solid RTP. Skip the Ante Bet at 3x cost for casual sessions; the 20x Feature Buy is better value for the occasional bonus-style trigger. Play responsibly, set a firm buy cap before you sit down, and treat the session as entertainment.
