Book of Dead transports you to the depths of an ancient Egyptian temple where archaeologist Rich Wilde searches for legendary treasures. This 5-reel, 10-payline video slot combines classic slot mechanics with a high-volatility mathematical model that can deliver wins up to 250,000 coins.
The game's core appeal lies in its expanding symbol mechanic during free spins. When you land three or more golden Book scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, you trigger 10 free spins. Before the feature begins, one symbol is randomly selected to become the special expanding symbol. During free spins, when this symbol appears in sufficient quantity to form a win, it expands to cover all three positions on its reel, paying on any position along the active payline rather than requiring left-to-right adjacency.
The golden Book of Dead symbol serves dual purposes as both the wild and scatter. As a wild, it substitutes for all other symbols to complete winning combinations on active paylines. As a scatter, it pays on any position across the reels, with wins calculated by multiplying your total bet rather than the per-line stake. Three Books award 2x your total bet plus 10 free spins, four Books pay 20x, and five Books deliver 200x your total bet.
This dual-role mechanic significantly increases the Book's value compared to standard scatter symbols, as it contributes to wins both through substitution and scatter payouts simultaneously on the same spin.
The ancient Book substitutes for all symbols and triggers free spins when 3+ appear anywhere. Pays up to 200x total bet as a scatter.
Three or more Book scatters award 10 free spins with a randomly chosen expanding symbol that covers entire reels for massive win potential.
During free spins, the selected symbol expands to fill all three positions on a reel, paying scattered on the line rather than requiring adjacency.
After any win, gamble your winnings by predicting card colour (50% chance, 2x multiplier) or suit (25% chance, 4x multiplier) up to 5 times or 2,500 coins.
Rich Wilde pays 5,000 coins for five-of-a-kind. Egyptian deities Pharaoh, Anubis, and Horus deliver up to 2,000 coins for top combinations.
Adjust coin value, coins per line (1-5), and active paylines (1-10) to customize your bet from minimum stakes to maximum $100 CAD per spin.
Book of Dead features nine regular symbols plus the Book wild/scatter. High-value symbols include Rich Wilde and three Egyptian deities, while low-value symbols use ornate playing card ranks A, K, Q, J, and 10. All wins pay left to right on active paylines, except the Book scatter which pays any position.
Book of Dead uses high volatility mathematics, meaning wins occur less frequently but with larger potential payouts when they hit. The optimal strategy for Canadian players is to manage your bankroll for extended play sessions, as the free spins feature may take 100-250 spins on average to trigger. Once activated, the expanding symbol mechanic can deliver wins ranging from modest returns to 5,000x line bet if Rich Wilde is selected as the expander and fills the screen.
The gamble feature offers true 50/50 odds on colour prediction and 25% on suit prediction, with no house edge on the gamble itself. However, variance works both ways: you can double up to five times (32x your win) or lose everything on the first card. Conservative players should collect wins, while those chasing maximum payouts can gamble smaller wins strategically up to the 2,500 coin limit.
