Le Pharaoh is the 2024 sequel to Le Bandit. Same raccoon, different continent. Hacksaw Gaming dropped cluster pays in favour of 19 fixed paylines and bolted on Sticky Re-Drops — winning symbols lock in place while the rest of the grid respins. The max win jumped from 10,000× to 15,000×, and the bonus system now branches into five distinct paths instead of three. Hit rate sits at 29.21%, so roughly one win lands every 3.4 spins. Most of those wins are tiny. The real payout potential is locked behind the bonus wall, specifically behind the Rainbow symbol and Golden Riches activation. Whether you grind the base game or buy your way in, the slot rewards patience over recklessness — and punishes chasers hard.

Core Mechanics

Four systems that define every spin. Sticky Re-Drops build Golden Squares, Rainbows unlock them, and the bonus choice determines everything.

Sticky Re-Drops

Any winning combination locks those symbols in place. Remaining positions respin. If new wins form, they stick too, and another re-drop fires. Each stuck paying symbol marks a Golden Square beneath it — that's where the money hides.

Golden Riches

When a Rainbow symbol is on the grid after Re-Drops finish, it activates every Golden Square at once. Squares reveal coins — bronze (0.2–4×), silver (5–20×), gold (25–500×). Then Clovers multiply, and Pots of Gold collect. One good Rainbow can flip an entire session.

5 Bonus Games

Land 3 scatters and choose: Luck of the Pharaoh (10 free spins, persistent squares) or Lost Treasures (hold-and-win with Stone Tablets). 4 scatters upgrade both to Super versions. 5 scatters trigger Rainbow Over the Pyramids — guaranteed Rainbow every spin for 12 rounds.

4-Tier Bonus Buy

BonusHunt at 3× (5x trigger boost), Rainbow FeatureSpins at 60× (guaranteed Rainbow each spin), standard bonus at 100× (Luck or Lost), Super bonus at 250× (Super Luck or Super Lost). Each tier has its own RTP — the 60× option runs at 96.35%.

How to Play Le Pharaoh

1. Set your stake

Adjust bet size between €0.10 and €100 per spin. The grid is 6 reels wide and 5 rows tall with 19 fixed paylines running left to right.

2. Spin and watch for Re-Drops

Hit spin. Any winning combination triggers Sticky Re-Drops — winners lock, everything else respins. If the respin extends the win or creates a new one, symbols stick again. This continues until no new wins form.

3. Look for the Rainbow

If a Rainbow symbol is on the grid when Re-Drops finish, Golden Riches activates. Every Golden Square reveals a coin, clover, or Pot of Gold. This is where base-game wins can jump from 2× to 50× or higher.

4. Trigger the bonus

Land 3, 4, or 5 FS scatter symbols to enter the Bonus Choice menu. Pick between free spins (Luck of the Pharaoh) or hold-and-win (Lost Treasures). More scatters mean better versions and bigger potential.

5. Or buy in directly

Use the Feature Buy button to skip straight to a bonus round. Four tiers available from 3× to 250× your stake. High cost, high variance — treat it as acceleration, not a guarantee.
