Blaze of Ra Slot Review
Blaze of Ra Slot Overview
Ra stands on a rocky peak beside the reels, sceptre in hand, and lets the sand blow past his feet as if none of it concerns him. Push Gaming sets no theoretical cap on wins in his slot, and the highest win the studio has recorded is 2,049x your stake.
The game rests on two features: Nudging Wilds in the base game, and free games where three of the five reels turn wild. You play on a 5x4 grid with 40 fixed lines. The studio lists the RTP at 96.40%, with a 94.18% version that some casinos run, and rates volatility mid-high.

Before your first spin
- The game takes place on a 5x4 grid
- All 40 paylines are fixed

Push Gaming sets stakes at 0.20 to 100 credits a spin (about £0.20 to £100), with 12 bet sizes in between; UK rules cap each spin at £5, or £2 if you are 18 to 24. You may also see a narrower 0.40 to 80 quoted, so check the in-game settings at your casino.
Blaze of Ra Slot Paytable & Symbols
Payouts in the table are multiples of your total bet. Push Gaming publishes no paytable for Blaze of Ra, so the figures here are the ones independent reviews agree on. You get five of a kind for every symbol, plus three and four of a kind for the Ra Wild; a cell stays empty where two sources do not give the same number.

Blaze of Ra Slot Paylines
All 40 lines are fixed, so every spin plays the full set. Wins pay left to right from reel one. The chart below shows each line.
Blaze of Ra Slot Features
Ra, the wild
Ra substitutes for every symbol except the Scarab scatter and lands in stacks. Five Ra on a line pay 50x your stake, the top line win in the paytable.
Nudging Wilds
Land a Ra wild in the top two positions of any reel and that reel stops spinning. On each following spin it nudges down two positions while the other reels spin as normal, and the feature ends once the last Ra has dropped off the bottom of the grid. Push Gaming says it can happen on more than one reel at a time.
We like that you can see it coming: a Ra in the top two rows tells you the next spin keeps a wild reel in play. Each of those follow-up spins still costs your normal stake. Some review sites call them re-spins, but Push Gaming's game page lists no re-spin feature, and you pay for every one of them.
Blaze of Ra Slot Bonus Features
Free Games with three wild reels
The Scarab is the scatter. Land three or more anywhere and the free games start, with each triggering Scarab flipping over to show 1 or 2. Add them up and you have your spin count, so three Scarabs give between 3 and 6 and five can give up to 10.
For the whole round, reels one, three and five are filled with Ra wilds. Whatever lands on reel two links up with the wild reels either side of it, which is why every free spin pays at least one line. A grid full of Ra wilds pays 2,000x your stake. Any Scarab that lands during the round adds more spins.
Our Verdict While three Scarabs can hand you as few as 3 spins, the round makes up for it in clarity: with reels one, three and five wild from start to finish, you can see where every line win comes from. We would still have liked a bigger spin count to start.

Yes |
Mid-high |
Push Gaming publishes two RTP settings for Blaze of Ra, 96.40% and 94.18%, and the casino picks one. You can check which in the game's user panel or on its loading screen. On £100 of total bets, the gap in expected return is about £2.22. The studio rates volatility mid-high and gives the theoretical maximum win as infinite.
Our Verdict Although 96.40% is a fair top setting, the 94.18% version takes more than two points off your expected return, and the reels look the same in both. Open the user panel before you play, every time you try a new casino.
Blaze of Ra Slot Graphics & Audio
Graphics
Push Gaming calls Blaze of Ra an ancient Egyptian experience. The reels are purple and sit against the desert, with pyramids in the distance. Ra is the only symbol on a red background, and we like that choice: in a stack of wilds you never have to hunt for him. Opinions split on the rest of the art, with one review finding it flat next to Push Gaming's other titles and another rating it a little above average.
Audio
The music is slow and mystical, with an oriental touch, and it builds to dramatic crescendos on teaser spins. You will hear the sound rise once two Scarabs are on the reels.
Our Verdict The art plays it safe, and two reviews say as much. We like the red tile behind Ra and the swell in the music on teaser spins, which tells you two Scarabs are already down. Not the boldest Egypt Push Gaming could have drawn.
Blaze of Ra Slot on Mobile
Ra has outlasted a few thousand years of dynasties, so a phone screen was never going to trouble him. You can spin Blaze of Ra on Android and iOS, on a phone or a tablet, and the game is fully optimised for the smaller screen.
