Stake OriginalStake Scarab Spin: Reels, Paylines and Symbols
A guide to Stake Scarab Spin: the 5×3 grid, 20 adjustable paylines, bet per line, symbols, Manual and Auto modes, and provably fair.
Published by The Gambling Desk ·
Scarab Spin is a Stake Original with five reels and three rows. The player sets the bet and number of paylines, then spins the reels. Symbols that stop on the active paylines determine the payout; the animations cannot predict the result.
The documentation and screenshot describe a classic Egyptian-themed slot, not a selection game or a tile-by-tile reveal.
How a Spin Works
- Choose the total bet amount.
- Set the number of active paylines, up to 20 in the documented interface.
- Check the calculated bet per line.
- Select Manual or Auto mode.
- Spin the reels.
- Read the total payout and any winning paylines.
The win depends on symbols aligned along the active patterns. A visible repetition does not necessarily pay if it does not form a recognised combination on a payline.
Understanding the Scarab Spin Interface
The screenshot shows Manual and Auto modes, the total bet amount, payline selector and bet per line in the left-hand panel. The 5×3 grid occupies the centre. The numbers on each side identify the 20 possible paylines.
The visible result displays a total payout of 2x. The payline setting changes the grid coverage and distributes the total bet among the active lines, so both amounts must be checked before spinning.

Symbols, Paylines and Payouts
The lower-value symbols include card ranks and gems. King Tut, the scarab and other Egyptian icons occupy the higher levels of the legacy payout scale.
The DOCX contains a detailed payout table, but no canonical branded CSV, JSON or PNG is available with which to publish it as a reference. The page therefore does not reproduce those values. Consult the help panel in the active version for the exact winning lengths and multipliers.
Wild, Scatter and Free Spins
The DOCX describes the King Tut mask as a wild that can substitute for ordinary symbols, but not for the scatter. The scarab is presented as the scatter: three scatters trigger 15 free spins in the supplied information sheet.
These features are documented by the legacy source but are not visible in the standard-game screenshot. Check the help panel before playing because the rules and features in an active version may change.
Manual and Auto Modes
In Manual mode, every spin is started separately. Auto runs spins consecutively with the selected settings. The automatic options control the pace and management of the sequence; they do not make any payline or symbol more likely.
Avoid mechanically increasing the bet after a loss. A progression primarily accelerates exposure, while every spin remains independent of the previous one.
Risks and Useful Reference Points
- check the total bet and bet per line;
- open the help panel to confirm the active payout scale;
- do not confuse symbols present with a winning payline;
- set a limit before using Auto;
- do not look for a signal in the speed of the reels;
- treat free spins as a random feature, not a certain objective.
The RTP, volatility and maximum win mentioned in the DOCX are not confirmed by separate canonical data. They are therefore not presented as current characteristics on this page.
Scarab Spin and Provably Fair
The Fairness access visible below the game allows a result to be checked using the server seed, client seed and nonce. Verification is retrospective: it does not predict the next spin.
See our guide to Stake provably fair. To explore another instant result without paylines, the Wheel guide explains a different mechanism.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Many Paylines Can Be Activated?
The supplied interface shows a selector set to 20 paylines and a separate calculation of the bet per line.
Do the Animations Indicate Where the Reels Will Stop?
No. They present the generated result and provide no exploitable signal for the next spin.
Does Auto Mode Improve the Chances?
No. It repeats the selected settings. The payout rules and probabilities remain those of each spin.
