Giza Infinity Reels: Overview

That familiar debate pops up again: which arrived first—ReelPlay’s Infinity Reels or NetEnt’s Infinireels? From what we’ve seen, NetEnt actually trademarked their take a couple of months before ReelPlay launched theirs. Either way, there’s no need to get too deep into it here—those arguments can stay with the parties who have the most at stake. Namely, the two studios involved.

Instead, let’s focus on the more entertaining job of putting ReelPlay’s second Infinity Reels slot to the test. Their first entry, El Dorado Infinity Reels, dropped players into a humid South American jungle. The Australian developer clearly doesn’t mind the heat, because this follow-up shifts to the equally scorching sands of Ancient Egypt. Alongside the new setting, ReelPlay has also tweaked the bonus game in ways that may suit serious players chasing bigger outcomes.

Before we get there, the action opens on the Giza plateau. You begin with columns, palm trees, and the Nile in view. As the reels load into the default 3×4 grid, the display pans to the right, uncovering more of the dusty landscape. Tying it together is a soundtrack that feels like traditional Egyptian flutes blending with a touch of Kenny G. If the pyramids ever had elevator rides, this is probably what would be playing.

The paytable symbols are all bespoke and match the theme. There are 6 lower-value icons—things like Ankhs, eyes, and lotuses. The premium symbols are the gods Horus, Maahes, Sobek, and Anubis, topped off by the Pyramids. Wins come from clusters of 5 or more matching symbols, though the payout logic can seem a bit puzzling at first. Once it clicks, it’s straightforward: the symbol’s value is multiplied by the number of symbols in the cluster, multiplied by the coin value, and multiplied by any win multiplier. Easy, right…? Maybe not on paper, but after a few wins in play, it starts to make sense.

Betting is thankfully simpler, letting you spin from 20 p/c per round up to $/€25. As for RTP, the first Infinite Reels slot allowed players to collect free spins, which could influence RTP. That collection option is gone in Giza Infinite Reels, replaced by a fixed RTP of 96.45%. Even so, the new Gamble feature could still have an impact, as explained below. Volatility is rated medium-high, with a free spins hit rate that seems on the lower side, though not terrible.

Giza Infinity Reels: Features

The most common extra is the Infinity Reels mechanic itself. When you land a win, a new reel is added to the right side of the grid, and this keeps happening as long as fresh winning symbols continue to appear. Beyond expanding the winning cluster, each added reel also boosts the win multiplier by +1. On a new spin, this returns to x1. One more bonus: if you manage to reach 15 reels, a jackpot worth 888 times the stake is added on top of any reel wins you’ve already collected.

The base game can deliver some decent moments, but the bonus round is where stronger returns are more likely. Any win that includes the Pyramid symbols triggers the Free Spins feature, awarding 10 spins. A key advantage is that the win multiplier doesn’t reset between spins—it can only hold steady or rise. In addition, back-to-back wins can increase how quickly the multiplier grows, up to a maximum boost of +5.

When the free spins end, players are then offered the chance to Gamble the winnings. You can gamble repeatedly, up to a maximum of 5x the total win amount. The upside is that you can’t lose everything, since you’re always guaranteed to leave with between x0.5-x1 of your total winnings.

Finally, where supported, players can bypass the base game via the Bonus Buy option. This costs 75 times the stake and guarantees a Pyramid win on the next spin to trigger the Bonus Game.

Giza Infinity Reels: Verdict

ReelPlay has put together a strong second Infinity Reels title. If the first game worked for you, there’s a very good chance this one will too. The core Infinity Reels feature remains just as impactful, and ReelPlay hasn’t made any frustrating changes like removing the 15-reel jackpot. While the option to collect free spins has disappeared, the adjustments here make the two games feel like genuinely different picks.

On the subject of potential, ReelPlay is very clear. In the base game, wins can reach up to 1,245 times the stake, while the bonus game can push that up to a huge 10,000 times the bet. Note that both of these maximums include the 888x jackpot in the calculation.

So why choose this over the original? There are a few solid reasons. Visually, it’s a step up, but the bigger point is that the gameplay opens up different angles. The newly added gamble feature, for instance, is likely to be especially attractive to hardcore players, who may enjoy the wild swings when the urge to chase bigger results kicks in. Overall, Giza Infinity Reels is a rewarding sequel and another convincing showcase of what the Infinity Reels mechanic can do.
