Payout

The maximum payout is £250,000, with a quite high theoretical return-to-player of 96.99%. In order to ensure your minimum win, you have to get the three symbols across any of the lines. The symbols with a higher payout are the adventurer, paying £20 for every £1.80, and the sarcophagus, which pays £8 instead.

If you manage to match five adventurer figures, the payout is £1000 for every £1.80 played, while matching five books across any line pays £360 for every £1.80. Jackpots are not progressive for this slot.

Bonuses

The Book of Ra features quite a few bonuses, including 10 free spins by matching 3 wild symbols across a line. The book is a scatter symbol, and counts as any symbol except for specials. This slot also features a gamble option, but there are no options to nudge or hold.
