Vault of Anubis Slot Review

Playing Vault of Anubis - First Impressions

I sat down with Vault of Anubis expecting a fairly standard Egyptian theme, and visually it does lean into that territory. But Red Tiger Gaming have done something genuinely impressive with the artwork here. The animations are detailed, the colours are rich, and there is a weight to every spin that keeps you watching the reels rather than zoning out. Released back in March 2020, it still holds up well.

The grid is bigger than most slots I test. You get 7 reels and 6 rows, which gives the screen a really packed feel. There are no traditional paylines. Instead, wins land through clusters of at least 5 matching symbols. It took me a few spins to adjust my eyes to scanning for clusters rather than lines, but once it clicks, the pace feels natural and quite satisfying.

Vault of Anubis Symbols and Paytable

The symbol set fits the ancient Egyptian vault theme tightly. You have got your lower-value gems and stones alongside higher-paying icons tied to the Anubis mythology. With a cluster pay mechanic on a 7x6 grid, bigger clusters obviously pay more, and during my session the mid-range symbols appeared in decent groupings fairly often. The hit frequency sits at 35.97%, which felt about right -- roughly a third of spins returned something.

How Vault of Anubis Bonus Rounds Work

Bonus triggers were not as frequent as I would have liked during my testing. High volatility slots tend to make you wait, and Vault of Anubis is no exception. You can feel it holding back, building that tension between dry stretches. When features do land, the potential is serious -- the game advertises a max win of 5,469x your stake, which is a proper ceiling for a slot like this.

The suspense of uncovering treasures inside the vault is where the game really earns its name. Each bonus round feels like you are peeling back layers, and the animations ramp up nicely to match the moment. I would say patience is key here. If you are the type who needs constant action, the gaps between features might test you, but the payoff potential justifies the wait.

Vault of Anubis RTP, Volatility and Bet Range

The default RTP on Vault of Anubis is 95.73%, which is slightly below average for UK players used to seeing 96% and above. Worth noting before you commit a long session. Volatility is high, and my bankroll swung quite a bit over a couple of hours. Bet sizes run from 0.10 up to 10, so it is clearly aimed at casual to mid-stakes players rather than high rollers.

Final Thoughts on Vault of Anubis

After a solid few hours with Vault of Anubis, I came away impressed by the presentation and the cluster mechanic on that oversized grid. The high volatility and slightly below-par RTP mean it is not for everyone, but if you enjoy the slow build towards big moments, Red Tiger Gaming have put together something genuinely engaging here. Just manage your bankroll carefully and give it time to breathe.
