In the already crowded universe of online slots, Playtech tries out something different. That’s where Pyramid Linx comes in. Think of it as the slot machine equivalent of a plot twist in a good book – unexpected yet somehow it works. This game brings together a mix of neon visuals and Egyptian symbols for something we haven’t seen yet.
Pyramid Linx breaks the mould with its unconventional reel setup: a 5-reel layout where the rows increase with each reel, creating a pyramid shape. Starting at a minimum bet of 0.10, players navigate through 20 paylines filled with a blend of card suits and thematic symbols like ankhs, scarabs, and snakes.
Playtech, known for its daring approach, continues to push boundaries with Pyramid Linx. Alongside other popular titles such as Age of the Gods, Buffalo Blitz, and Great Blue, this game adds another feather to Playtech’s cap, showcasing their ability to blend creativity with solid mechanics.

Apart from the symbols above, Pyramid Linx also hosts a couple of special surprises. The first is the X Wild, which substitutes for all the symbols you see above.
Following right along is another wild, the Gold X Wild, which also substitutes for the symbols above. However, it does more than just substitute and create winning combinations. The Gold X Wild helps activate special bonus features within the game.
Finally, there’s the Pyramid Symbol. Similar to scatter symbols in other games, the Pyramid Symbol is responsible for activating the Free Spins feature.
Pyramid Linx comes with several unique bonus features. While we’ve hinted at some in previous chapters, here we break them down one by one.
Players can potentially trigger the Free Spins feature by landing three or more Pyramid symbols on the board. After activating the feature, players have the chance to choose between two options:
This option awards ten free spins with a special paytable. All Pyramid symbols transform into Wild Pyramid symbols, increasing your chances of potentially forming winning combinations. Landing three or more Wild Pyramid symbols retriggers the feature, awarding an additional ten free spins. A randomly selected symbol expands to cover entire reels during this mode.
On the other hand, X Free Games awards five free spins with an increased chance of triggering the Wild Linx feature. Landing three or more Pyramid symbols during this feature retriggers it, awarding an additional five free spins.
The Wild Linx feature can be triggered during both the base game and the X Free Games option. Land Circle symbols, X symbols, or Gold X symbols on all five reels to activate a mini-game. In this mini-game, you can reveal various prizes, including the game’s four jackpots:
Gold X symbols can reveal these jackpots, adding notable win potential to your gameplay.
While original in its take on the subject, Pyramid Linx is definitely not the only Egyptian slot out there. If you've enjoyed it thus far, you might want to take another look at the BetVictor catalogue and try out similar titles, including Vikings Go To Egypt Wild Fight, Golden Wheels of Egypt, and Golden Orbs of Egypt.
