| RTP: | 95% |
| Win Type: | 50 Paylines |
| Layout: | 5x3 Video Slot |
| Theme: | Ancient Egypt & Coins |
Shadow Gods is a 5x3 slot with 50 paylines, set in an Egyptian temple where the gods Horus and Anubis sit on reels 2 and 4. Wins pay from the leftmost reel to the right.
Horus and Anubis appear as 3-stop Wilds. They substitute for every symbol except scattered Masks and Coins, and they always nudge to cover their reel when any part of them lands on it. Landing 6 or more Coins anywhere starts the Coin Feature, with 3 re-spins and the triggering Coins held in place. Any new Coin is held too and resets the re-spins to 3, and filling all 15 positions awards the Grand Bonus.
Landing 3 or more scattered Masks lets you choose between two free games features: Wild Reels or Treasure Spins. Each gives 6 free games, can be retriggered, and can include the Coin Feature.
The top award is 50,000 times the bet per line.

Casino Beacon Verdict
Shadow Gods pairs a 50-payline base game with two nudging Wilds, so Horus and Anubis can cover reels 2 and 4 whenever any part of them lands. That gives the main game a clear point of interest before any bonus is triggered, and the Coin Feature adds a separate hold-and-respin round on top.
The free games are where the choice comes in. Wild Reels keeps both gods in place for 6 games, while Treasure Spins fills reel 5 with Coins, and both can trigger the Coin Feature and be retriggered. With medium volatility and a 95% RTP, it sits in the middle of the range rather than leaning towards either extreme.
- Best for: Players who like a choice of free games features and a Coin round that can also run inside them.
- Less suitable for: Players who want jackpots or a Buy Feature.
