Lara Croft Temples and Tombs
Lara Croft Temples and Tombs
Lara Croft – who loves her tight tops and knee-high boots – is back in the Lara Croft Temples and Tombs slot. Join me in an adventure with this iconic tomb raider in her third instalment of slot heaven.
This time the famous archaeologist is unearthing chunky bonuses amidst the tombs and temples of the Egyptian age. Test yourself out on the Gods of Giza slot if you like – that should get you into an Egyptian mood.
The Basics
There are three bonus games on offer in this slot that include massive multipliers, Rolling Reels and Free Spins. Lara’s crammed the temple with features. Who doesn’t like a Jackpot? And in this game, there are three of them! It reminds me of other masterpieces like Arctic Valor, which is a Games Global collaboration with Crazy Tooth Studios.
The Graphics
Games Global and Triple Edge Studios have enriched Lara Croft’s slot offering with style and aplomb – this game is designed to perfection. We love these collaborations between Games Global and the smaller studios (the 9 Masks of Fire slot with Gameburger Studios is another great example.)
Your gameplay takes place in an ancient temple that’s seen better days. you are on the hunt for the game’s artefacts and age-old treasures set on stone tablet reels.
Above the reels, you’ll notice an ancient basket illuminated by gems and a big pile of gold, representing the Jackpots. Plus, a series of multiplier numbers are inscribed in the stone below the reels – but more on these later.
Spin the reels to reveal the hidden doors of a golden tomb, and as you make your wins, Lara’s cut-glass English accent will encourage you on. There are some great design touches like the dust that falls from above when the reels spin.
And there’s something exotic (and Egyptian) in the music that accompanies play. Lara Croft Temples and Tombs slot is awash with a dramatic atmosphere that will have you spinning on the edge of your seat.

Lara Croft: Temples and Tombs Slot Game Play
The Lara Croft Temples and Tombs slot takes place over five reels, three rows and comes with 243 Ways to Win.
The four most valuable icons are all Lara Croft in action, and a sizzling portrait of our heroine is the most valuable symbol worth 50x your bet for five on a pay-line.
The mid-value icons are the golden statues of the crocodile-headed god Sobek (he had power over the River Nile, don’t you know?), plus Anubis, the jackal-headed god of death. Look out for the tools of Lara’s trade, a grabbling hook and rope, a bag, a fiery torch and a water bottle, as these make up your lower-value symbols.
A shimmering golden Scarab beetle is this game’s Wild and substitutes for all other icons, but it only appears on the middle three reels.
Meanwhile, the Scatter symbol is a book with Lara Croft’s name on it, and this icon unlocks the free spins mayhem.
Rolling Reels
When you generate a win, the winning icons explode in a Rolling Reels mechanic with new icons falling into the place of the old with a satisfying crunch. This chance to continuously make wins is active in both the base and bonus games.
The Bonuses
Multiplier Trail
Thanks to the Rolling Reels mechanic, the Lara Croft Temples and Tombs slot offers you a chance to make consecutive wins.
When you generate wins back to back, you automatically trigger the Multiplier Trail that you’ll find at the bottom of the reels.
In the base game, each win you make takes you up one notch up the value ladder starting at 1x and hitting the top of the scale at 5x your wager.
And if you create consecutive wins during the Free Spins bonus feature, the trail will kick off at 3x, 6x, 9x and end with an impressive 15x your stake.
Free Spins (or Falls)
Land three Scatter book icons and you’ll trigger the bonus giving you eight free games. Landing a further three Scatters will award you a further eight games and this can be re-triggered ten times – very generous indeed.
And remember: The Multiplier Trail is active now and at its most rewarding. Theoretically, there could be up to 80 free spins on offer with a nerve-jangling 7,000x your bet win on offer.
Jackpots
When Wild icons hit during play, you’ll see that the Wilds are collected in the jackpot basket above the reels. Now, you’re in with a chance to unlock the three-tiered jackpot feature – which is triggered at random. The more wilds you collect the better chance you have.
Ideally, you’ll want to scoop the Grand jackpot as this is the largest pot of gold offering you a reward of 5,000x your bet.
But, if you’re lucky you could also get your hands on the Major jackpot worth 2,000 coins or the Minor jackpot which is worth a more modest 300 coins.
