How to play

All actions take place on a playing field with 6 reels in 3 rows and you have 10 lines to create prize combinations. Here, in addition to the added 6th reel, which differs from the standard ‘Book of…’ mechanics formula, you also get a new randomly selected Expanding symbol for each bonus round re-trigger.

To start this journey to ancient Egypt you need:

  • Open Secret of Dead at the casino of your choice
  • Click on the info button in the bottom left corner of the screen to view the paytable and rules
  • Choose the stake: from €0.1 to €100
  • Spin the reels!

Secret of Dead RTP and Volatility

8 
High risk comes with a 96.20% default RTP.
You need to make sure that this slot machine rewards you with a series of good spins as it comes with high volatility. This means that the prize combinations and bonus features here will not be triggered as often, but each successful spin will bring a fairly large prize. As for the theoretical return, it is 96.20% by default, which is below the market average. It may change depending on the casino where you play. The RTP range is: 96.20%, 94.20%, 91.20%, 87.20% and 84.20%.

Theme

7 

Looking at the Secret of Dead, we see a typical ancient Egypt-themed slot. All actions take place in a dark tomb with a bunch of tall columns between which gold coins are scattered. The atmosphere is dark and mesmerizing as befits such a game.

Royals pay up to 25x for a combo of 6 matchings while premium, ankh, Shai, cat, scarab, and snake pay between 100x and 500x for the same. By the way, the Ankh replaces the regular Book symbol and works as both the Wild and the Scatter. As a Wild, it substitutes for all regular symbols to help complete winning combinations and as a Scatter it triggers the free spins feature.

About Play'n GO

This slot with ‘Book of…’ mechanics was created by Play'n GO, which is one of the most popular gambling providers known for its cutting-edge games for casino sites. This company has received numerous awards including ‘Best Casino Provider of the Year in 2019, ‘Video Slot Provider of the Year’ in 2018 and more.

Bonus Rounds & Free Spins

7 

Bonus Round

As soon as 3, 4, 5 or 6 Ankh symbols land on the playing field at the same time, the slot will launch a bonus round with 8, 10, 12 or 15 free spins respectively. Before the feature starts, 1 character is selected which will become a special expanding character during the feature. The expanding symbol pays as a Scatter and copies of it do not have to land nearby to pay. You win +5 Extra Free Spins when 3 or more Scatters land anywhere on the playing field and you also get an additional randomly selected Expanding Symbol added to the original one. This way you can turn all 9 regular symbols into special expanding Scatter symbols! By the way, the premium Shai symbol pays double, if it expands.

Risk Game

After any win, including the total win in the Bonus round, you can try the Risk Game! This is a classic color/suit guessing game where you can double/quadruple the prize or lose it. You can wager your win up to 5x in a row or increase it up to a maximum of 2,500 coins.

Secret of Dead Demo Play

Being able to test something before buying it is very important and luckily you can try this game for free! The Secret of Dead comes with a free demo mode. While playing in this mode, you can spin the reels, get prize combinations and bonus features by betting with ‘fun’ coins instead of real money. Of course, when playing the free mode, it will be impossible to withdraw the funds won, since they are not real.

Max Win

8 
The Goddess of Fortune can bring you a prize of up to 10,000x!
The 10,000x max win potential is double the usual max win for slots with ‘Book of…’ mechanics. This makes this slot somewhat attractive for players. To win it, you will need to activate the Free Spins Bonus Round and get as many Expanding symbols as possible. Good luck!

Overall Rating

7.5

It doesn't take a lot of changes these days to release another ‘Book’ slot. Play'n GO has basically included the 6th bonus round reel from the previous Scroll of Dead in the base game in this release. Also, the new slot gives you an additional Expanding symbol for each Re-trigger of the Free spins bonus round, which has already been seen in many similar releases.

We're a bit tired of the ancient Egypt theme and we wouldn't mind a more experimental direction for this series but we understand that a big provider like Play'n GO can easily milk it to the end by doing what they do. The 10,000x potential is really massive and it makes this release more attractive to all players, but in our opinion, there are more exciting Ra clones out there.
