Live an Indiana Jones adventure with The Book of Ra™ Slot Game!
Become an Egyptologist for a day and discover the hidden secrets of the Book of Ra™, a Novoline slot machine game from the Austrian gaming company Novomatic and certainly one of the most popular slots in Europe. In fact we can definitely say that Book of Ra is to Europe what Cleopatra slots is to USA.
We have just recovered from the magical atmosphere of The Wish Master, and we plunge into the sands of Ancient Egypt, the stage of this game. You are an archaeologist in the best Indiana Jones tradition. Indy goes on to say, "If you want to be a good archaeologist, you gotta get out of the library", but you have not really to do that if you want to play this amazing game with its mysteries, the Pharaohs and Gods, the Scarab and the Golden Book of Ra, as this game is today even available for android devices on Google Play.
Book of Ra™ online Slots is a 5 reels slot game. There is an original or classic version of the game which offers up to 9 paylines. And a more recent and modern version known as "Book of Ra Deluxe" or "Book of Ra 2", also available for mobile.
Playing Book of Ra your goal is to complete a line of two to five like symbols on adjacent reels - that is without any other symbols between them :)
The "Golden Book of Ra" is the Wild symbol and can substitute for all other symbols to complete a winning line, but it works as the Scatter symbol too. Get 3 or more of these symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger the Bonus Rounds feature, probably one of the most enticing characteristic of the game.
Free Spins Bonus Feature
The first time you get 3 "Golden Books" you win 10 free spins and a Special Bonus Expanding Symbol that is used during the free spins. Free spins can be re-triggered during the bonus rounds and there is theoretically no limit to the number of free spins you can be awarded with.
The Special Bonus Expanding Symbol will be shown before the free spins begin. After you triggered the bonus, the Book of Ra will appear on the screen, and the pages will begin to move and turn. At a point they'll stop and the Special Expanding Symbol will appear in the book. The value of the Special Bonus symbol is determined by the sign itself, and the chosen stakes. It is a "scatter expansion" symbol which can expand to cover 3 positions on the reel. Get enough symbols to cover the entire reel and win a huge amount of money.
Gamble Bonus Feature
The "Gamble" feature is another bonus feature available in the Book of Ra game. Here there is a virtual deck of cards and you can increase your winnings by choosing the correct colour of the next card drawn. You can see at any moment, at the top of the screen, the last six cards which were drawn to have a few statistics to base your choice on.
Play the Gamble feature 5 times in a row or collect your winnings at any time. The choice is up to you.
Wide range of betting options and great payouts
Bets start at just €0.04 per line and can be adjusted using the + / – buttons for the biggest flexibility. The total bet per spin is shown on the bottom of the screen and calculated as the bet per line multiplied by the number of lines activated.
As for the payout, The Book of Ra has a relatively high average return to player (RTP) percentage - calculated as Total Win / Total Bet over a large number of games played - of 96.99% you may want to take advantage of.
