Overview
By Sophie Lang, Games & Mobile Editor. Catalog RTP last refreshed 24 August 2026 — not a live lobby scrape. Confirm the cash info panel after login.
Pyramid King is Pragmatic’s Egypt classic: 500× class, prefer ~96.50% after CAD login. It is not Nile Fortune’s Nile fortune at 5,000× / ~96.50% and not John Hunter and the Tomb of the Scarab Queen’s expanding-wild adventure at 10,000× / ~96.50%.
Lobby search stacks Nile Fortune, John Hunter and the Tomb of the Scarab Queen, and Gold Party beside it. Open the cash title that reads Pyramid King, then read the panel — 95.50% and 94.50% Pragmatic builds still ship.
Confirm the live contribution table. Some tables still cap max bet. Confirm before you opt in.
Editor take — Pyramid King. Use Egypt classic on a 96.50% CAD panel at 500×. Take Nile Fortune for Nile fortune at 5,000× / ~96.50%. Take John Hunter and the Tomb of the Scarab Queen for expanding-wild adventure at 10,000× / ~96.50%. Skip Gold Party unless that is the cash tile.
Stake and table limits for Pyramid King are operator-specific in CAD. Set a session cap before you open the game, then confirm 96.5% on the cash panel — not the demo tile.
