Players will need a minimum of three and up to five matching symbols on a payline to gain payouts which pay out from the leftmost reel to the right.
The book symbol doubles as both the scatter and wild symbols and appears on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th reel and substitutes for any regular symbol in the game. This helps to form more winning combinations for players and as the scatter it also triggers the Free Spins feature.
The high paying symbols are Helios, Olivia Brave our female adventurer, a bow and arrow and a whip which pay out between 10x and 20x players stake for five of a kind winning combinations. The low paying playing card symbols 9 through to Ace pay out 5x to 8x players bet for landing five of the same.
The RTP (Return to Player Percentage) is below the industry standard at 95.58% and this game plays with high volatility. This means that substantial wins can land especially when leveraging the bonus features but there will be many dry periods between the payouts. This will suit adventure seeking and risk loving high rollers but present more of a challenge to novice punters who will have to game with more caution and prudence as the road can get bumpy.
The free spins are triggered by landing three Book symbols on the reels which awards 10 free spins with a randomly chosen expanding symbol for the duration of the feature. This symbol can expand to cover entire reels and pays even when it is not adjacent. They will pay on all paylines and help create easy wins. All players need to do is to land enough expanding symbols on the reels to form a win and they will expand.
Win multipliers are revealed during the free spins and these range from between 1x and 5x which boosts wins significantly. These win multipliers of the book symbols will multiply with each other when they involved in the same win. If punters land the special expanding symbol and the book symbol on the same reel, the book symbol is the only symbol that can expand to cover that reel.
The Buy Feature enables punters to advance directly to the free spins feature and this can be bought for a price of 65.5x their stake.
The Book of Helios slot game travels well on all devices. It is fully mobile optimized so players can enjoy this fiery adventure through either a desktop or from compatible iOS Apple, Android or Samsung smartphones and tablets making it an easy and seamless pleasure to play from anywhere and anytime.
