Have fun gambling among the pyramids and make the most of the features at the Book Of The Sphinx.

Game features

Developed by IGT gaming, Book Of The Sphinx is set in the ancient Egyptian theme like multiple other slots. What makes the game attractive to the players in the details in the gameplay and the variety of decorative symbols.

The slot contains 5 reels and 3 rows and is set up against a background that is assumably a wall inside of a pyramid with two pillars at both ends holding ignited torches. The symbols of the game aptly represent the theme owing to their design and formation. These include lower-paying cards of royals ranging from 9 to A as well as higher paying symbols featuring Egyptian elements such as –

Clay tables
Golden cobras
Ankh crosses
Body of a Pharaoh
Statues of goddess Anubis
Scarab beetles

Out of these, the pharaoh is the highest paying symbol as a combination of 3, 4, and 5 such icons can lead to good payouts of 2, 12, or 100X the stake, respectively. With the free spins, win multipliers, and other bonuses, the game’s maximum potential can be achieved, which goes as high as up to 2500X the total stake.

Special features

As the title suggests, expectedly, there must be some element of the game that features the Book of The Sphinx. Here, it is the wild card. It acts like a regular wild and replaces the standard symbols on the slot. Other than that, it also functions as the scatter for the players to get free spins.

An additional symbol featuring the Eye of Ra holds importance in the game as landing 3 or more of this symbol can activate the special Eye of Ra feature. The concerned symbols on the slot are then replaced by the standard symbols in such a manner that they expand over the specific reels, taking them over and giving rise to better combinations regardless of their position.

Bonus features

The bonus feature includes free spins that can be activated by the scatter/wild symbol of the book. When this book appears on the slot in a minimum number of 3, free spins can be earned. 10, 15, and 30 Bonus rounds can be unlocked this way depending on the number of scatters on the slot.

Multipliers of 2, 20, and 200X are attached to the wins at the end of the free spins, thereby increasing the amount of the stake. Also, during the free spins feature, any random symbol is taken to be the special symbol that can provide additional benefits. At most, the player can make use of 250 free spins through various features.
