Book of Dead
Book of Dead was first launched by Play’n Go in January 2014 and today is one of the most popular online slots among US players. The company has done an excellent job in developing this adventurous game. The protagonist of the plot, Rich Wilde, goes to Egypt in search of ancient artifacts. The hunt for precious treasures has begun, and you can work your way to them to win big!
Volatility and RTP
Volatility (a parameter in slots that characterizes the level of their risk) of this game is set to a high level. This means that winnings do not happen very often here, but in the long run, really massive payouts are possible here!
Now we move on to RTP (return to player). If there’s one thing we don’t like about this game, it’s the RTP. The fact is that the slot has RTP ranges – a feature with which casinos can customize the return to player in accordance with their needs. The RTP ranges can be quite wide and for this game they are 96.21%, 94.25%, 91.25%, 87.25% and 84.18%. This means that the house edge can range from 3.79% to 15.82%.
Take into account that Book of Dead comes with RTP ranges!
Playing field
Everything is standard here. 5 reels, 3 rows, 10 lines. Bets are made by pressing the + and – buttons on the bottom panel from 0.10 to 100 coins per spin. Prize combinations are formed quite simply, namely by landing from 2 to 5 matching symbols on 1 of the lines. The Book, as it usually happens in “Book of…” slots, plays the role of both the Scatter and the Wild, so it can help you complete the prize combination. Pretty useful symbol.
Book of Dead Bonus Features
Gamble
When playing this slot, you will understand that you always have the opportunity to bet your win by pressing the “Gamble” button immediately below the playing field. With this feature, you can potentially double or even quadruple your winnings. What needs to be done for this? Just guess the correct color or suit of the next card. Of course, there is also the risk of losing your win.
Free Spins
The Free Spins feature is the cherry on the cake called Book of Dead. This exciting feature is triggered every time you get at least 3 scatter symbols (Book) anywhere on the game board. At the start, you get 10 free spins, but this is not the limit, you can increase this number by getting additional Scatters during free spins. Oh yeah, we almost forgot to mention that 1 symbol will be randomly chosen before the feature starts to expand to cover a full reel. It will do this when a winning combination is possible. You should also be aware that the Expanding symbol does not have to be adjacent, but it must be on an active payline!
Book of Dead Symbols (Paytable)
Let’s start with the golden book since it’s the main item in this game. This is a special symbol that plays the role of both the Wild and the Scatter. The books can help you complete the combination and you need to collect them to activate the free spins feature. Also, this symbol gives payouts, like others. Here’s what the paytable looks like:
Gameplay
This game may be legendary but its gameplay is quite simple. Each casino provider has its own unique interface and menu system, and here we will tell you everything you need to know to start playing this game and have a great experience.
So look at the bottom right corner. Here you can find the payout table which contains all the necessary information about the bonus features. Please note that the paytable is not dynamic and shows how much you win per bet line.
In the settings menu, you can turn the game sound on and off, as well as turn on the left hand mode and quick game. We love the last setting as we always prefer the fastest paced game possible.
The bet menu is there to allow you to select a coin denomination from 0.01 to 1. After all, you can play with a bet range of 10 to 100 coins per spin, which is a pretty good range.
Then you need to decide if you want to spin the reels manually or use the autoplay feature. Autoplay in this slot machine allows you to choose between 10 and 100 autospins. There are some extra buttons for when you want the feature to stop auto spinning.
OK it’s all over Now! You are ready to join Rich Wilde on the hunt for lost treasures and big wins.
