How to play Book of Dead
You play on five reels with up to 10 paylines, which switch on one after another. Wins count from the left.
The book is both the scatter and the wild. It substitutes for all other symbols.
Free spins with an expanding symbol
Three or more books give 10 free spins. Before the round, the game picks one regular symbol at random.
- The chosen symbol expands to cover the whole reel if that creates an extra win.
- Expanded symbols do not need to be on adjacent reels.
- Three books during the bonus add another 10 spins.
After a win you can play the gamble feature. You guess the card colour (x2) or its suit, which is spades, hearts, diamonds or clubs (x4). You can do this up to five times in a row.
Book of Dead win cap
The win cap is 25,000x the bet, and according to Play'n GO the odds of hitting it are 1 in 2,985,075. Most big wins come in the bonus when a high-paying symbol expands. The demo can take a moment to load the first time.

This is what players say about Book of Dead. We read every review before it goes live, but we never edit what people write.

The bonus can take ages, but retriggers during the round happen more often than I thought.

Can you actually win anything on the gamble?
Reply from the editors
On average, no. The gamble doubles or quadruples your win, but the risk of losing it grows at the same rate. It is usually better to collect the win straight away.

Which symbol is best in free spins?
Reply from the editors
Rich Wilde pays the most, followed by the pharaoh statue and Anubis. The game picks the expanding symbol at the start of the round.

Been playing for years and still waiting for a full screen of the explorer. Got close once.
Elle
Played this years ago and still come back. Simple rule: three books and wait for a good symbol.
Pete_M
Classic. Pays best when Rich Wilde expands, once got over 1,000x.
Ryan
A classic. Expanding Rich Wilde in the bonus is the best thing that can happen.
