THE DETAILS

For the effort of clarity, the payouts from the upcoming symbols will be based on a $2 spin, which is automatically set within Pragmatic’s official demo of the game. 

The first batch of symbols, which include an array of Egyptian hieroglyphics such as Ankh, Horus, scarab, diamond and shell. These provide the player between $0.50 and $3, depending on the number of matching symbols that land in a single spin. 

Up next in value is the golden scarab, blue diamond and cobra, which offered between $0.90 and $5. The two next jumps in value come in the form of Cleopatra and a statue form of Horus that provides between $1.50 and $8. 

Finally, the highest value regular paying symbol in the title comes in the form of a sarcophagus of Tutankhamun, which gives the player $2 for three matching symbols and $10 for six. 

In addition to the regular paying symbols, the title also includes scatters which appear on all reels. These payout $4 for three matching symbols and $1,000 for a six-of-a-kind win. 

Wild symbols in the game fill the reels with a multiplier of x2 or x3 attached to them, these substitute all symbols except the scatter.  

During the base game, if the player lands three or more book symbols they will unlock the free spins mode. Within this round, a special expanding symbol is randomly selected to be in use throughout the 10 free spins. 

Whenever three or more of the special symbol lands, they expand to cover the entire reel. Additionally, this adds one of these symbols on top of the reels, any future expansions also connect to this additional symbol and increases the winning potential further.
