John Hunter and the Book of Tut Slot Game

Developed by Pragmatic Play, the online slot game titled "John Hunter and the Book of Tut" presents an engaging layout featuring 5 reels and 3 rows, offering players 10 distinct ways to achieve victory. This game draws players into an adventure reminiscent of the original, where the main objective revolves around the anticipation of encountering the powerful book symbol amidst the gameplay. The design of the symbols adheres to a familiar structure, with the lower-value symbols represented by the 10 through Ace (10-A) royals, each adorned with small icons for added decorative appeal.

For the symbols with higher payouts, Pragmatic Play has chosen iconic Egyptian imagery, including a scarab and a cat, with Tutankhamun and the adventurous John Hunter himself being the most lucrative symbols. Landing five John Hunters on a payline rewards players with an impressive 500 times their stake. The book symbol serves a dual purpose in this game. It acts as a wild, substituting for any other symbol on the paytable to facilitate winning combinations. Additionally, when three or more book symbols make an appearance on the reels, the game transitions into a more exciting phase by awarding the player with 10 free spins. This initiation of the bonus game is made even sweeter as the appearance of 3, 4, or 5 book symbols also comes with immediate payouts of 2x, 20x, or 200x the player's stake, respectively.

The intrigue deepens before the Free Spins round commences, with the opening of a book to randomly select one of the regular pay symbols. During the Free Spins feature, whenever this chosen symbol lands on the reels, it expands to cover the entire reel. This expansion mechanism facilitates winning combinations more readily, requiring only two premium symbols (as opposed to three lower-value symbols) to trigger a payout. Remarkably, these symbols do not need to be adjacent to each other to award wins. Furthermore, the potential for an extended bonus game exists, as the book symbols continue to play a role during free spins. Landing three or more book symbols again during this round rewards players with an additional 10 free spins, with no upper limit to how many times this can be retriggered.
