Sahara Riches Cash Collect is five reels of dusky online slot action, with a sheik on the side, a mysterious maiden, and a meze of bonus features. Will you collect that cash, and make hay, as the Arabian sun shines? Let’s take a closer look. What we have is five reels of beautifully engineered online slot from casino software developers Playtech Origins. Origins is an in-house studio brand that falls under the Playtech corporate umbrella. The idea being to create multi-brand, individual, unique, content within the same company. The good news: it works.  

Shifting Sands and Slots

Sahara Riches Cash Collect is an elegant combination of quick, responsive, play and crisp branding. The game has 30 paylines and five reels and works in both desktop and mobile format. The music is suitably Sinbad the Sailor and the visuals are fruit machine 101. Icons include a treasure chest overflowing with gold coins, crossed scimitars, an hourglass, a bejewelled camel, and a lantern abandoned by a careless – and now, sadly, homeless - genie. The online slot’s wild is the penetrating gaze of a sultry maiden, substituting for all the regular house symbols. The treasure chest is the top standard game play prize at 180x.  

Cash Collect

Now we move onto the Cash Collect element of Sahara Riches Cash Collect. This is where things get interesting and we ‘sheik’ things up. It’s also where we get to use the sheik pun for the second time. As you roll the reels, cash collect icons appear. Each one has a specific cash value. You can try to pack out all 15 slots on the entire 5 x 3 screen. However… to win the cash prizes displayed on screen, you need to land the all important Cash Collect icon on reel 5. Hit this and you collect the cash.  

Sahara Riches Cash Collect Bonus Games

It gets better. The Cash Collect symbol also activates the bonus games feature. When icons appear on screen with +3 or +7, for example, these relate to bonus spins. Hit the Cash Collect icon and the bonus spins round begins. You can collect both cash and bonus spins at the same time. In the Free Games bonus round, the Cash Collect icon can appear on all five reels. It is also frozen for three spins. This gives you a chance to rack up more bonus spins and add to your total prize fund. Sahara Riches Cash Collect has one more trick up its sleeve. The online slot also comes with four embedded jackpots: Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand. The jackpots are not progressive. Instead, they are all relative to the amount wagered. Bet the maximum of £100 and the Grand is £50,000. Bet 10p and you win £50. To win a jackpot, you need to land the diamond icon, followed by a Cash Collect.  

Sahara Riches Cash Collect: In Conclusion

Sahara Riches Cash Collect is fun to play. When a handful of money icons land, it gets exciting; as you wait for the final piece of the puzzle to land: the Cash Collect icon. It’s a cleverly constructed game where the bonus rounds always feel just a spin away. Add the Arabian Nights theme and Sahara Riches Cash Collect is worth taking for a dance across the dunes. Grab that camel, saddle up, and channel your inner Lawrence of Arabia.
