HOW TO PLAY BOOK OF DEAD

The golden Book of Dead hides many secrets, one of them being the location of abundant wealth hidden by ancient pharaohs. The Book functions both as a Wild that substitutes for all other symbols and a Scatter that triggers the Free Spins feature.

Once you enter the Pharaoh’s tomb, you will come across Rich Wilde, who is the highest-paying regular symbol of the 2014 release. Other symbols that populate the reels of the Play’n Go product are the Pharaoh, Anubis and the blue Eagle. Low-value symbols are represented by simple playing cards.

Usually, there are plenty of hidden traps in the tombs of pharaohs, so people need to be careful when exploring such dangerous places. Fortunately for all of us, the 2014 release is completely straightforward, everything is out in the open. Book of Dead features a standard 5×3 reel grid and benefits from 10 adjustable paylines, which pay left to right, starting from the leftmost reel.

High-value icons pay even for two of a kind, while low-paying symbols start paying when three or more of them appear on a payline. Betting starts at 0.10 per spin if you want all lines active, but if you alter the coin value and the number of coins per line, you can wager up to 50 in a single spin.
