What the Book of Dead slot is all about

Open the Book of Dead slot and it will reveal all of Ancient Egypt’s most valuable treasures. This 5-reels, 3-rows, 10-paylines slot game created by software developer Play‘N GO is based on one of Rich Wilde’s adventurous storylines. The game was released quite some time ago, in 2016, and has since then become an ancient Egyptian classic. After the previous chapters Aztec Idols (2012) and Pearls of India (2014), Rich Wilde returned, ready for some more action, and this time his adventures led him to the pyramids of Ancient Egypt where Anubis had already opened the gates to the underworld…

Riche Wilde – Lead character in the Book of Dead slot

Let’s take a moment to zoom in on the main character in the Book of Dead slot! Rich Wilde is the daring, renowned explorer and archaeologist who is known for his fearless and adventurous spirit. He is determined to unlock the secrets of the ancient world and uncover the treasures hidden within the tombs of the pharaohs. With his trusty hat, leather jacket, and ruggedly good looks, Rich Wilde is the perfect hero to guide you through the mysterious land of ancient Egypt to unlock the secrets of the pharaohs in the Book of Dead slot.

The main features of the Book of Dead slot

The Book of Dead slot by Play’N GO offers some exciting bonus features that could potentially earn you more rewards. One of the main features is the Bonus Spins round; trigger three or more books and the secret passage to the pyramid will appear together with potentially great rewards. The Bonus Spins feature will start you off with 10 Bonus Spins, during which one symbol will be randomly selected to act as a special expanding symbol that can cover the entire reel and increase the chances of hitting a winning combination. You might be able to earn wins of up to 5000 times your bet! Stakes can range anywhere between €0,10 and €100 per spin, so at maximum stake the top winning combination spills out €500,000 (this only happens if you manage to get 5 Rich Wilde symbols on one payline).

Another great feature is the gamble option, which allows you to potentially double or quadruple your winnings by correctly guessing the colour or suit of a face-down card. The Book of Dead slot also has a wild symbol in the form of Rich Wilde himself, which can substitute for any other symbol to increase your chance of landing winning combinations. Overall, the bonus features of the Book of Dead slot add a fun extra layer to your gameplay.

The Book of Dead slot symbols

The symbols you’ll find when “leafing through” the Book of Dead (slot) by Play’N GO are all inspired by the world of ancient Egypt, with many familiar images of gods, pharaohs, and other iconic symbols of that era. The high-value symbols include the Book of Dead itself, which acts as both the scatter and the wild, as well as a range of characters and artefacts such as the Pharaoh, Anubis, and the Eye of Horus. The lower-value symbols are represented by traditional card suits in a hieroglyphic style, including spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. The special expanding symbol, which is randomly chosen during the Bonus Spins round, can also become any of the high-value symbols – this might even give you opportunities to increase your win potential. The symbols in the Book of Dead slot are beautifully designed and add to the immersive experience of exploring the ancient Egyptian tombs.
Rich Wilde – 5x = 500x your bet / 2x = bet returned
Book of Dead – Wild & Scatter / 3x Scatter = Bonus Spins feature
Horus – 2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 3, 10 or 75x your bet
Anubis – 2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 3, 10 or 75x your bet
Osiris – 2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 4, 40 or 200x your bet
K, A – 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 4 or 15x your bet
10, J, Q, – 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2.5 or 10x your bet
The most rewarding symbol is of course our main man, explorer of the hour, Rich Wilde – 5 of him on a payline will give you 500 times your bet. If you manage to get 2 of him on a payline, you will have your bet returned.
The Book of Dead symbol is just as important, since it represents the Wild as well as the Scatter symbol. When it appears as a Wild, it can substitute for any other reel symbol to possibly help get you those winning combinations. When the Book symbol appears as a Scatter, 3 or more are needed anywhere on the reels to trigger the Bonus Spins feature. Besides a payout of 2, 20 or 200 times your total bet, you also get to enter a sacred chamber where you will be rewarded with 10 Bonus Spins
