Sphinx Hijinx

Review

The Sphinx Hijinx online slot is a superb addition to internet gaming. This traditional 3 reel 1 line slot is similar to others in its category by using the same CryptoLogic interface and identical sounds. The animation of the reels is mediocre in pace but the blurring of the icons is effective in the impression of playing a real-time slot. The sounds that accompany the reel spins, button presses and even winning motifs are recycled from the same producer's catalogue. However, this slot, like many others of its capacity, aims to entice gamers to the fundamentals of a game; the prizes and the ways to drop them, and for such a standard slot its prizes are more than you'd expect. The Sphinx Hijinx icons range from BARs, pyramids, sarcophaguses and the sphinx' head, the last of which will drop you the top award when you match three in a row across the payline during a maximum bet. Play up to three coins on the payline where the more coins you use, the better the paytables your prizes will come from.

In general for such a simple slot, the prizes on offer and numerous ways to reach them (benefiting from the use of a wild symbol too) means the Sphinx Hijinx video slot offers all the essentials for enthusiasts of any skill and experience level.

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol of the Sphinx is a brilliant addition to such a modest traditional slot. Spin it onto the payline and whenever possible it will substitute itself for any other symbol to create more chances of winning combinations. Play the max bet of three coins across the payline and if you manage to reveal the Sphinx symbol three times across it, you will be dropping the top award of 3,000 coins making this Egyptian themed game a superb choice.
