Gameplay of Book of Dead
I’m counting 9 core winning symbols here, all paying by identical matches across fixed lines. The clear top payer is the Explorer, reaching 5,000 for five of a kind, with the Pharaoh next at 2,000 for five. At the bottom, the card symbols sit on the lowest tier, where three of a kind pays 5, and that floor is shared across multiple symbols. What stands out is that every paying symbol starts from two of a kind, which is visible across the entire table.
Symbol | x5 | x4 | x3 | x2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Explorer | 5,000 | 1,000 | 100 | 10 |
Pharaoh | 2,000 | 400 | 40 | 5 |
Anubis | 750 | 100 | 30 | 5 |
Falcon | 750 | 100 | 30 | 5 |
A | 150 | 40 | 5 | |
K | 150 | 40 | 5 | |
Q | 100 | 25 | 5 | |
J | 100 | 25 | 5 | |
10 | 100 | 25 | 5 |
Most real wins here come from full-reel expansions during Free Spins, not from steady base-game line hits. The gap between the Explorer and everything else is extreme, while card symbols mainly serve to keep lines active.
Compared with Legacy of Dead, symbol values are nearly mirrored but feel more rigid, and against Gonzo’s Quest, the lack of cascading keeps outcomes more dependent on single spin moments than chain reactions.
Functional Symbols
Tomb Scatter — Pays anywhere on the reels and triggers 10 Free Spins when three or more appear, while also substituting for other symbols to form winning combinations.
Special Gameplay Mechanics
Free Spins — Triggered by three or more Tomb Scatters, awarding 10 Free Spins, with Scatter wins added to line wins during the feature.
Expanding Symbol — A single symbol is randomly selected at the start of Free Spins and expands to cover entire reels when it appears, affecting line wins.
Scatter Payout Handling — Scatter wins are multiplied by the total bet and added to line wins rather than replacing them.
