Book of Dead

Book of Dead overview

Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead is one of Play'n GO's most recognisable slots. The game uses five reels, three rows and up to 10 paylines, with an Ancient Egypt theme centred on explorer Rich Wilde.

RTP, volatility and maximum win

The commonly published standard RTP is 96.21%. Book of Dead is a high-volatility slot and the maximum win is 5,000x the total stake. RTP can vary by operator configuration, so the in-game information screen should always be checked before real-money play.

How the bonus works

Three or more Book symbols trigger 10 free spins. Before the feature begins, one regular paying symbol is selected at random as the Special Expanding Symbol. When enough of that symbol lands on active paylines during free spins, it can expand to cover the full reel height and pay even when matching symbols are not adjacent.

The Book symbol acts as both Wild and Scatter, while Rich Wilde is the highest regular symbol.

Demo and mobile play

The BestCasinoSA page uses the SlotLaunch demo so the paytable, adjustable paylines and expanding-symbol feature can be explored using virtual credits. Demo balances have no cash value.

Responsible play

A 5,000x ceiling is a theoretical maximum, not an expected outcome. High volatility means long dry runs are possible, and RTP is a long-run statistical measure rather than a session guarantee.
