Book of Lords

Ancient Egypt and Amatic go together like peanut butter and jelly. The software providers fascination with this theme is evident through its release of two ancient Egyptian themed slots, Book of Queens and Book of lords. These two slots may seem similar at first glance, hover at closer inspection we can see some key differences. In this review we will be looking at the Book of Lords and determining if it is deserving of the ‘Book of’ title!

As mentioned before we are looking at an ancient Egypt themed slot. With that being said the visuals are not exactly original. You will find an ancient hall with grand pillars and statues found during this period. In the center you will find the slot grid, which consists of 5 reels and 3 rows.

The 5x3 set up consists of 10 active paylines,with bets being placed from as low as10 cents up to a maximum 300 euro per spin. With a maximum win of 5000x our stake players have the potential of winning 1.5 million euros if bets are maxed out! With an RTP percentage at 96.71% the returns you can expect to receive while playing is considered above industry average. Where volatility is concerned Book of Lords is regarded as high, which will please some and scare off others!

Your standard paying symbols are distinguishable in terms of payout, with low value and premium symbols being present. Your low value symbols are the familiar playing card 10-Ace symbols which will pay anywhere from 10-15x your stake for landing 5 matching symbols. Your premium symbols are Anubis, Hathor, Bastet and the female tomb raider which will award you 75-500x your stake for landing 5 of a kind. 

It wouldn't be a ‘book of’ slot without a book symbol in play, which is the slots bonus symbol. The Book symbol is the wild and scatter, awarding players from between 2-200x your stake depending on how many you land. As the wild symbol the book will act as a substitute for any other symbols on the reels. As a scatter, the book will trigger free spins by landing 3 or more on the reels, which will be explained in more detail in the slots bonus features section.

In terms of game bonuses Book of Lords has only one. Following the game mechanics of many other popular slots in the ‘Book of’ category, Book of Lords utilizes a single wild/scatter symbol as the slots bonus symbol. 

Landing three or more scatter symbols will result in players being awarded 10 free spins. During free spins mode a random symbol will be selected, which turns into an expanded symbol. Should the symbol selected be present in multiple locations on the reels you may have multiple expanded symbol reels, which as you can imagine will deliver gigantic payouts!

In terms of theme, Book of Lords is hardly an original idea. The ‘Book of’ title and the ancient Egypt setting have become synonyms with online slots. However, Book of Lords does add its own bit of magic to the mix which makes this title feel special and somewhat different to the rest. With a huge winning potential and a lucrative free spin bonus round topped off with an expanding symbol it's easy to see why this slot has gathered so much attention. A must try for ‘Book of” slot fans!
