Ancient Egyptian Hold & Win with 5-Tier Progressive Jackpots
Sunlight Princess by 3 OAKS delivers a sophisticated Hold & Win mechanic wrapped in Egyptian mysticism. Unlike standard slots, this game features a five-tier progressive jackpot system where the Royal Jackpot pays 10,000x your total bet when you collect all 15 Bonus symbols during the feature round.
The slot operates on a 5x3 grid with 30 fixed paylines. The Princess Wild symbol appears on all reels and substitutes for everything except Scatter and Bonus symbols, paying up to 30x bet for five-of-a-kind. What separates this from typical Egyptian slots is the layered bonus structure: you have the standard Free Spins mode triggered by three Temple Scatters on reels 2, 3, and 4, but also an Extra Bonus Game that can randomly trigger during base play as you accumulate Bonus symbols.
Landing six or more glowing Sun Orb Bonus symbols triggers the primary Bonus Game. During this feature, only Bonus symbols appear on the reels, each displaying either a multiplier value (1x to 15x your bet) or one of four jackpot labels: MINI (20x), MINOR (50x), MAJOR (150x), or GRAND (2,000x).
The Super Bonus Game activates when you land five Bonus symbols plus at least one Super Bonus symbol, or when a Super Bonus appears during an active Bonus Game. This enhanced version offers higher value symbols and increased jackpot opportunities.
Mystery symbols add another dimension. These golden sun medallions with question marks transform into MINI, MINOR, MAJOR, GRAND, or SUPER BONUS symbols, creating unexpected win potential. Fill all 15 positions during any Bonus Game to claim the Royal Jackpot worth 10,000x your total stake.
Three Temple Scatter symbols trigger 8 free spins. During this mode, all card symbols (A, K, Q, J) are removed from the reels, leaving only premium symbols: Princess Wild, Cat, Scarab, Ankh, and Snake. This dramatically increases hit frequency and win potential. Free Spins retrigger with three more Scatters, awarding an additional 8 spins.
Six or more Sun Orb Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels initiate the Hold & Win feature. Each Bonus symbol locks in place and displays a multiplier value between 1x and 15x your total bet, or a jackpot label. The feature continues with three respins, resetting to three whenever a new symbol lands.
Landing five Bonus symbols plus one Super Bonus symbol (the larger, more intense sun orb) triggers the Super Bonus Game. This enhanced version features higher multiplier values and increased chances for jackpot symbols. Super Bonus can also appear during a regular Bonus Game, upgrading it instantly.
As you collect Bonus symbols during base game or Free Spins, each one increases your chance to randomly trigger an Extra Bonus Game. This progressive trigger system means more Bonus symbols landed equals higher probability of activation, adding an extra layer of anticipation to every spin.
Golden sun medallions with question marks appear exclusively during Bonus Games. When revealed, they transform into one of four jackpot symbols (MINI, MINOR, MAJOR, GRAND) or a Super Bonus symbol, potentially converting multiple positions simultaneously for massive win combinations.
The ultimate goal: fill all 15 positions during any Bonus Game to win the Royal Jackpot at 10,000x your total bet. This requires strategic symbol accumulation and benefits from Mystery symbol transformations and Super Bonus triggers that can rapidly fill the grid.
Temple Scatter: The glowing temple entrance appears exclusively on reels 2, 3, and 4. Three Scatters trigger 8 Free Spins in the base game. During Free Spins, three more Scatters award an additional 8 spins with no upper limit on retriggers.
Sun Orb Bonus: These radiant golden spheres appear on all reels but only pay during Bonus Games. Six or more trigger the Hold & Win feature. During the Bonus Game, they display multiplier values from 1x to 15x your total bet.
Super Bonus Symbol: A larger, more intense sun orb with deeper orange-red colouring. Five Bonus symbols plus one Super Bonus trigger the Super Bonus Game. It can also appear during a regular Bonus Game to upgrade the feature.
Mystery Symbol: Golden sun medallions with question marks appear only during Bonus Games. They transform into MINI, MINOR, MAJOR, GRAND jackpot symbols, or Super Bonus symbols, with red arrows indicating their transformation potential.
Sunlight Princess implements a five-tier jackpot system that scales with your bet size. The MINI jackpot pays 20x total bet, MINOR awards 50x, MAJOR delivers 150x, and GRAND provides 2,000x. These jackpot symbols randomly appear during Bonus Games, replacing standard multiplier values.
The ROYAL jackpot represents the maximum win potential at 10,000x your total bet. To claim it, you must fill all 15 positions during a Bonus Game. At the maximum stake of £16.00, this translates to a £160,000 maximum win. At the minimum bet of £0.25, the Royal Jackpot still pays £2,500.
Practical example: betting £2.50 per spin, landing six Bonus symbols triggers the feature. If you collect symbols showing values of 3x, 5x, 7x, 10x, 12x, and 15x, plus a MAJOR jackpot (150x) and MINOR jackpot (50x), you accumulate 252x your bet for a £630 win. Fill all 15 positions for the Royal Jackpot: £25,000.
The Free Spins mode removes low-paying card symbols, significantly improving hit frequency with only premium symbols present. This makes Scatter triggers particularly valuable, especially when combined with the Extra Bonus Game mechanic that can activate during free spins.
Bonus symbol accumulation during base play serves dual purposes: each one increases Extra Bonus Game trigger probability whilst potentially building toward the six-symbol threshold for direct Bonus Game activation. This creates consistent engagement between major features.
The Mystery symbols during Bonus Games function as wild multipliers for the feature, capable of transforming into jackpot values. Landing multiple Mystery symbols on a single spin can rapidly accelerate progress toward filling all 15 positions for the Royal Jackpot.
Autoplay functionality supports extended sessions, automatically stopping when balance becomes insufficient. The turbo spin feature (activated by holding the spin button or Space/Enter keys) accelerates gameplay for experienced players familiar with the paytable.
Sunlight Princess is intended for players aged 18 and over. Set deposit limits before playing and never wager more than you can afford to lose. The game includes autoplay stop functions and balance tracking. If you feel your gambling is becoming problematic, seek help from organisations like GamCare or BeGambleAware. Remember: gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money.
