Egypt Clusterbuster Slot Review
It wasn’t long ago we were flying through space in another of Red Tiger’s Clusterbuster titles, Blobsters. Since then, we’ve been patiently waiting for a new edition of the series to pop up, and now that time has finally come. The Clusterbuster series meets Egyptians in Red Tiger’s latest release, Egypt Clusterbuster!
Ancient Egypt is an interesting part of history and one that plays a pivotal role within the iGaming community. Many providers have put their own spin on the subject, but we know it’s Play’n GO that are the real masters of this genre.
Egypt Clusterbuster opens doors to Chain Reactions, Ancient Orb Progression, Free Spins, and not forgetting the all-important Clusterbuster mechanic. Break open the inactive cluster of locked symbols to reap generous rewards!
Base Game & Features
Egypt Clusterbuster is an enticing 9×9 Grid Slot featuring the Cluster Pays mechanic. Due to the nature of Cluster Pays, there are no fixed pay lines or ways to win per spin. Receiving a win requires 5 or more matching symbols to connect either Horizontally or Vertically.
Paytable symbols fall to 5 Card Suits and 4 Egyptian symbols. For a winning cluster of 5, you will receive a win between 0.1x and 1x your bet. However, landing a winning cluster of 20+ symbols will generate a win up to 50x your bet. The bigger the cluster sequence, the better the reward.
Once winning clusters are paid out, they are subject to removal, causing new symbols to take their place via a Chain Reaction. New symbols may cause additional wins to form. Chain Reactions continue until no new winning clusters are visible.
Wilds substitute for all High and Low-paying symbols. Egypt Clusterbuster has a theoretical RTP of 95.71%, a Mid-High Volatility rating, and a max win cap of 6,656x your bet.
Clusterbuster
In the centre of the playing grid is an inactive 3×3 Scarab symbol. Unlocking the entire symbol requires winning clusters to form around it, chipping away the tiles per win until it is freed. Once fully unlocked, a Special Prize is revealed.
Ancient Orbs Progression
In-game features are represented by a Coloured Orb above the grid, with all Orbs except Green locked at the start of a game round. Releasing the locked Scarab symbol in the middle of the grid will unlock the next feature.
When a new feature is unlocked, it will activate in the next paid spin. No new features can be unlocked during this time, however, they can be unlocked by breaking open the Scarab symbol once again. Orb features unlock in a Blue, Red, and Purple formation.
- Green Orb: Transforms any paytable symbol into a 3×3 Super symbol, with up to 3 appearing in a single spin.
- Blue Orb: Awards up to 3 Super Wilds in a single spin.
- Red Orb: Guarantees a 3×3 Super Wild, breaks into 9 Scarabs, and transforms 9 individual symbols into Wilds.
- Purple Orb: Generates a 3×3 Super Wild with a Multiplier between x2 and x10. Similar to the Red Orb, it will break into Scarabs to create Wilds, maintaining the Multiplier value of the super wild.

Free Spins

The locked Scarab symbol does not appear on the grid during this time. However, there is an increased chance of triggering 1 or more Orb Features.

Conclusion
If you’re looking for a change of scenery without giving up the Clusterbuster mechanic, Egypt Clusterbuster may just do the trick. With Egyptians being at the heart of some of the greatest slots, it’s easy to see why Red Tiger would get swept up in it, but where does it rank in the long list of Egyptian titles?
When you first load Egypt Clusterbuster up, you’re consumed by the overwhelming size of the playing grid. The bigger grid means more opportunities to generate wins, even with 9 positions locked.
The locked positions are part of a much bigger picture, giving players something to focus on during the base game. As part of the Clusterbuster feature, unlocking all 9 positions again and again will activate many exciting Orb features, including the Free Spins round.
Coloured Orbs unlock individual features, causing 3×3 Super Wilds, among other things, to appear on the grid, enhancing your chances of triggering multiple wins in a single spin.
The Egyptian theme, high-quality graphics, and promising features are accompanied by a sub-par max win cap of 6,656x your bet. If big potential is something you lean towards, then you may find higher max win titles on our Upcoming Slots page. Otherwise, stay tuned for Egypt Clusterbuster which releases on the 26th of September!
