Desert Treasure Slot Review

Deserts are like a beautiful woman – entrancing to look at but intimidating to approach.
The idea of being trapped in a desert with dunes as far as the eye can see is horrifying.
There are few places on earth that are so remarkable:

  • The largest desert in the world is the Sahara. It covers over 3.5 million square miles!

  • The highest temperature recorded in the Sahara is 136 degrees Fahrenheit (58 Celsius)!

  • Animals have learned to adapt to the harsh environment. The desert tortoise, for example, can survive without water for up to a year.

BGAMING takes us on an adventure (via PC, mobile device or tablet) in “Desert Treasure.” It's a rollicking romp in the sand that's filled with mystery and romance in a historical setting. Framed by an ornate tapestry, the scene is set for a journey worthy of a Sultan.

Gameplay

Desert Treasure is a high volatility slot with 5 reels and 9 paylines. Standard symbols include a gold coin, sword & shield, genies lamp, and Arabic letters. The wild is a gorgeous Arabian woman and this can replace everything, except the scatter – a handsome warrior.
Controls, while not matching the theme, are neat and unobtrusive. Up top are Probability options (I'll chat about that later), and Settings (including Paytable and Rules). Below the reels are Balance, Line Count, Max Bet, Spin, AutoSpin, Bet Value and Total Bet.
The sands of time can't be rushed in Desert Treasure. That's a pretentious way of saying: there ain't a Turbospin!

Features

3,4 or 5 scatters anywhere triggers 10, 25 or 50 Free Spins, all with a 3X multiplier. Better still, wins with 3,4 or 5 scatters are multiplied by 4, 40 and 400 respectively during Free Spins!

Unique Features

  • Wins in combinations with 2,3,4 or 5 wilds have multipliers of 8,80,800 and 8000 respectively.

  • Desert Treasure is a Provably Fair Game. In case you've been stuck in the desert for 5 years, what that means is that the fairness of each spin can be verified after the result is published. It's a way of keeping accountability and ensuring player peace of mind. Once can only hope this technology is adopted by more providers.

Performance

The graphics and animation are vivid and crisp, but still have a slightly worn feeling to them, which adds a tremendous amount of realism. The music evokes images of Arabian nights of mystery while the sound effects keep the game's excitement going.
Performance wise I had zero issues on any platform tested.

Conclusion

It's tough not to fall in love with Desert Treasure. This game is so steeped in atmosphere that I almost started sweating and feeling the sand beneath my toes. Its few features are so heavily stacked with innovative ways to win that I'll be returning for a desert odyssey again soon.
