You can’t give out too many points for originality, as this game plays just like most other ‘Book of …’ games including the orignal Book of Ra. Let’s take a look at how each of these mechanics works.
Book Symbol
This symbol acts as both a scatter and a wild and it can land anywhere on the reels. If you land 3 or more of them then you trigger 10 free spins. If it lands as a wild then it can substitute for any normal pay symbol.
Free Spins Round
If you land 3, 4, or 5 book symbols then the free spins round begins. Right at the beginning the book symbol opens and one of the regular pay symbols is chosen. This symbol will expand to fill a whole reel if 2 or more of them land at once. These expanded symbols don’t need to be adjacent to form wins, they simply add up any matching symbols on the grid.
If you land 3 or more further book symbols during the free spins round then the spins round is retriggered.
Choosing the expander symbol for free spinsWow Progressive Jackpot
Landing even one book symbol is enough to trigger the progressive jackpot. Sometimes it will go with one, sometimes three, sometimes not at all. It does feel completely random, but it’s brilliant when it does. A bonus wheel will appear with 20 sections, each representing one of the jackpots (shown below). You spin the wheel and you are guaranteed to win one of the jackpots. Unfortunately, only one of those 20 sections is the Wowpot! So your chances are still pretty slim.
With that said, your chance of triggering this bonus round is greater the higher your stake. So those on a bumper budget stand the best chance of landing that Wowpot! Jackpot.
