In the bustling world of Bitcoin slot games, the Egyptian theme reigns supreme. However, since the market is so saturated with this genre, standing out for new games is no easy feat. But then enters Relax Gaming's latest creation: Book of Power. This thrilling slot brings ancient Egypt to life with simple yet neat visuals and captivating gameplay, striking the perfect balance between tradition and innovation. With a jaw-dropping max payout potential of 15,000x, the stakes are high, making for an exhilarating ride where the high volatility adds an extra edge of excitement!
Slot Description
Book of Power is a collaboration between Relax Gaming and CasinoGrounds, with a refreshing take on the famous "Book of" slots category. The game kicks off with a 5x3 grid panel housing 10 fixed paylines. Wins accrue when 3 or more (2 in the case of high-paying symbols) matching symbols land on one or more of these paylines. But remember the catch: only the highest win gets paid per line.
With wagers ranging from 0.10 to 60 coins per spin, players with different betting preferences can suit themselves into the game. The game also offers a Power Bet button, which doubles your per-bet cost. However, once enabled, the Power Bet offers higher chances of landing Power Free Spins and increases the chance to trigger any free spins by 170%.
Symbols and Payouts
The slot's paytable comprises 5 low-paying and 4 high-paying symbols. The character symbol, probably an explorer, pays the highest, i.e., up to 500x the stake. A notable aspect of the game's paytable is that high-paying symbols offer payouts even when 2 of them show up across a payline.
We get two wild symbols instead of one, both of which pay equivalent to the highest paying symbol. Moreover, wild also substitutes for other symbols, except the special Expanding Symbol during the bonus feature.
Bonus Features
Book of Power offers two different types of Free Spins: a standard one and a Power Free Spins. Free Spins
Interestingly, hitting 3 or more Book wild symbols in the same spin offers their corresponding payout and awards up to 20 free spins.
- 3 wild symbols provide 10 free spins
- 4 wild symbols provide 15 free spins
- 5 wild symbols provide 20 free spins
Before the feature starts, a random paying symbol gets picked and turns into an expanding wild symbol. Apart from line wins, the expanding symbol expands if doing so guarantees a win. Also, the expanding symbol pays on all 10 available paylines depending on the number of matching symbols on the reels.
Hitting 2 bonus symbols during the feature grants another random expanding symbol along with 5 extra free spins. By chance, the new expanding symbol is the same one as previously chosen; it will provide a +1 multiplier to the symbol.
Power Free Spins
Upon landing 3 or more bonus symbols with one of them being a Power Book symbol, it triggers the Power Free Spins feature with up to 20 free spins, same as the regular free spins feature. Most of the features work pretty much the same as they do in the other free spins feature. You get a randomly picked expanding symbol, which expands and pays on all 10 lines. Also, hitting 2 wilds in the same spin grants 5 extra free spins and an additional expanding symbol or increased multiplier if it's the same as the previous expanding symbol.
However, hitting a Power Book symbol on the second, third, or fourth reel turns that respective reel golden. The golden reel expands the chosen expanding symbol, even if that particular symbol hasn't landed.
Hot Mode
Hot Mode might randomly trigger before either of the bonus features starts. When it does, there's a better chance of winning big.
Buy Bonus
If you don't want to wait out on either of the free spins features, then the buy bonus wedge would be your ideal choice. To immediately trigger Free Spins or Power Free Spins, you'll have to pay 100x or 200x the bet, respectively. Note that the bonus purchase option might not be available in some jurisdictions.
Payout Statistics
Book of Power is not a feature-heavy slot, but whatever little it has to offer, it offers effectively. Having only 10 paylines might not sound like too much for a modern slot game. Still, it has worked pretty well previously in several games, especially with a 5x3 grid, so why not for this? Besides, the game is packed with an impressive payout potential of 15,000x the stake, which offers plenty to look forward to in the game.
Besides this, the slot boasts a hit frequency of over 30%, suggesting a win within every 4 spins on average. Furthermore, the Book of Power RTP of 96.11% stands barely above the industry average. However, it is still decent enough for a highly volatile game.
