Book of Dead is Play’n GO’s 2016 Egyptian adventure slot with five reels, three rows and between one and 10 selectable paylines. Its Tomb symbol acts as both wild and scatter, linking a traditional line game to the signature expanding-symbol feature.

How Book of Dead works

Line selection changes how many patterns are active. Three Tomb scatters award 10 Free Spins. Play’n GO describes the game as high variance and publishes a 5,000x top result for a full reel set of the highest symbol.

The listed win system explains how qualifying results are evaluated; it does not predict how frequently they occur. A maximum multiplier, a large ways count or a named jackpot is a rule limit rather than a typical outcome.

Features and comparison points

Before Free Spins begin, one ordinary symbol is selected at random. It can expand to cover its reels when doing so creates an additional active-line win, and the expanded symbols do not need to be adjacent. Three more scatters add another 10 spins.

For comparison, separate the base win method, the feature trigger and the way the feature progresses. RTP variants can also differ by configuration. The percentage shown in the active game information panel is more relevant than assuming the highest published option.

Who this game may suit

Book of Dead suits players who prefer a small, understandable feature set and selectable lines. It is a weaker fit for someone looking for tumbling reels, persistent base-game multipliers or multiple bonus modes.
