Originally, 100000 Pyramid was an Emmy-award-winning American game show that first aired in the 1970s quiz-show heyday. Now, after several seasons, reruns and other reincarnations, leading online gaming software developer, Interactive Game Technology have turned 100000 Pyramid into a five-reel, 15-payline online video slot.
100000 Pyramid is the sequel to IGT’s 2010 release, 50000 pyramid and, as the increase in zeros suggests, 100000 Pyramid is bigger, bolder and richer than its predecessor.
In keeping with its quiz show inspiration, 100000 Pyramid features a bold design and graphics, complete with flashing lights, set against the backdrop of an over-the-top game show studio, to the disco-esqe 70s soundtrack and the sound of a cheering studio audience.

It is a very high-variance slot, which requires players to either win free spins or hit the jackpot in order to start getting much of their wagers back. While this is rather risky, the possible payout is a maximum jackpot of, unsurprisingly, 100000 times the base wager.
However, it is possible to play it fairly on the 100000 Pyramid online video slot by simply begin careful about how many coins or credits you lay on the line. With 15 adjustable paylines on 100000 Pyramid, players may wager between 1 and 100 coins per line on as many paylines as they feel comfortable with, depending on the size of their bankrolls and the amount of risk they are willing to take.
Symbols in 100000 Pyramid
There are a large number of theme-appropriate symbols in 100000 Pyramid and the standard symbols include gold bars, a celebrity star, the Mystery 7, various game show prizes like TV sets and sports cars, and the usual high-value playing card symbols 10-A.
The 100000 Pyramid symbols that players will be most eager to land, however, are the 100000 Pyramid logo wild symbol and the winner’s circle pyramid bonus scatter symbol.
The Wild: 100000 Pyramid Logo
As mentioned the game logo serves as the wild in the 100000 Pyramid video slot. This means that it can stand in place of any other symbol, except the scatter, on an active payline to complete winning paylines.
The 100000 Pyramid is also the slot’s most valuable symbol as it pays out the game’s top jackpot of up to 100000 coins, in the event that five of these symbols appear on a single active payline.
The Winner’s Circle Pyramid Bonus Scatter
Very much in the style of a 70s TV game show, the 100000 Pyramid free spins bonus round allows players to progress up a pyramid of brightly flashing lights through a series of spins to gradually accumulate free spins and multipliers. This 100000 Pyramid free spins round is triggered when three or more of the winner’s circle pyramid scatter symbol appear anywhere on the reels.
The round begins with two free spins and a 1x multiplier, which online pokies players are able to increase by making a winning selection from one of five symbols, each with a different value, between which they must choose. If they choose correctly, they are allowed to advance to the next level and possibly acquire more free spins and a higher multiplier. The 100000 Pyramid free spins bonus round ends when players either run out of options or reach the top rung of the pyramid.
