Pharos 2 by Merkur

Pharos 2 slot from Merkur Gaming.

Pharos 2 is named after the legendary island of Pharos near the Egyptian city of Alexandria. It was on this island that the first ruler of the Ptolemaic Empire built the majestic lighthouse from which the game takes its inspiration. Upon completion, the lighthouse stood an impressive 100 meters high and guided sailors safely into port.

That is the reason why this slot game is filled with maritime symbols. Thus, you will find a ship’s wheel, an authentic sailboat and navigation charts on the reels. There is also a gold coin and a silver coin, with the silver coin being the wild symbol of the game. This means that it can substitute for all the main characters as a wild to form more winning combinations.

How to play Pharos 2

The Pharos 2 slot from Merkur has five reels, three rows and ten fixed paylines. Wins are calculated from left to right. For each payline, the highest win is paid. This slot game offers the Pharos feature as a highlight, when a gold coin stops on the 2nd reel. A silver coin acts as the wild symbol in this slot, while the gold coin starts the Pharos feature when it appears. This slot game does not offer a scatter symbol and therefore no free spins.

Pharos Feature + Nudge Bonus

When a gold coin appears on the second reel, one of the adjacent symbols is selected and all other adjacent symbols are replaced by that symbol. Each winning line is calculated in the process. After that, all symbols slide down one position. This is repeated until all symbols have disappeared.

Gamble function

Even if you play Pharos 2 free without registration in an online casino, you can test out the gamble function. It gives you the chance to risk your winnings. The function consists of a mini-game in two variants: a card game or the risk ladder. In the card game, if you correctly guess the suit of the next card from the deck, your winnings will be doubled. In the risk ladder you will see a ladder with flashing steps. Your task is to stop the flashing when the higher step flashes. If you click at the right moment, you will get double winnings. However, you should be careful – in both variants of this mini-game you can lose the entire winnings if you make the wrong decision or click at the wrong moment.

All online slot machines from Merkur offer the possibility to halve the winnings you have won with the gamble function and collect half of it. You can continue gambling with the other half. This is an option that is not offered by other software producers and allows even the most cautious players to play this mini-game. The win in the gamble feature is limited to €140 in all Merkur slots.
