Bonus Features

Free Spins with Expanding Symbols

Land three or more Book of the Fallen scatter symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger the Free Spins feature. You receive 10 free spins and get to select one symbol as your special expanding symbol before the round begins.

During free spins, your chosen symbol expands vertically to cover all three positions on any reel where it creates a winning combination. The expanding symbol pays on all reels, even in non-adjacent positions, dramatically increasing your win potential.

Retrigger: Land 3+ Books during free spins for 10 additional spins with the same expanding symbol—no limit on retriggers!

Super Spin Ante Bet

Activate the Super Spin feature in the base game by paying 10x your current bet for every spin. When active, you pre-select an expanding symbol and every subsequent spin plays like a Free Spins round.

Your chosen symbol will expand and pay on any reel position just like during the bonus round, massively increasing your hit frequency and potential for big wins on every single spin.

Cost: 10x base bet per spin | RTP: 96.49% | Wins calculated on base bet, not the ante amount

Buy Free Spins

Don't want to wait for the bonus? Instantly trigger the Free Spins round by purchasing it for 100x your current total bet. You'll receive 10 free spins and full control over which symbol becomes your expanding wild.

The buy feature gives you immediate access to the game's most lucrative mechanic, letting you chase that 5,000x maximum win without waiting for scatter symbols to align naturally.

Cost: 100x total bet | RTP: 96.48% | 10 starting free spins with your choice of expanding symbol

How to Win at Book of the Fallen

Match symbols left to right

Book of the Fallen uses 10 fixed paylines across the 5x3 grid. Winning combinations must start from the leftmost reel and proceed on adjacent reels to the right. The paytable shows payouts for matching 2, 3, 4, or 5 identical symbols depending on the symbol tier.

Target the Book scatter symbol

The Book of the Fallen symbol is your key to massive wins. It acts as both wild and scatter—substituting for any symbol to complete wins, while three or more anywhere on the screen trigger 10 free spins with an expanding symbol mechanic.

Choose your expanding symbol wisely

Before free spins begin, you select which symbol expands. Higher-value symbols like the Explorer (5,000x for a full screen) offer bigger payouts but appear less frequently. Lower symbols like card values hit more often but pay less. Balance volatility with your risk tolerance.

Leverage the expanding mechanic

During free spins, when your chosen symbol lands and forms a winning combination, it expands to fill all three positions on that reel. Crucially, the expanding symbol pays on all reels—even non-adjacent ones—massively multiplying your win potential compared to base game paylines.

Retrigger for extended sessions

Landing three or more Book symbols during free spins awards an additional 10 spins with no limit on retriggers. This mechanic can create extended bonus rounds where wins compound, pushing you closer to the 5,000x maximum win cap that instantly ends the round and awards the full amount.

Frequently Asked Questions

The base game RTP is 96.50%. When playing with the Super Spin ante bet activated, the RTP is 96.49%. If you use the buy feature to instantly trigger free spins, the RTP is 96.48%. All three modes offer competitive return rates within industry standards.
Before free spins start, you select one symbol to be special. During the bonus round, after regular wins are paid, if your chosen symbol appears in enough positions to form a win, it expands vertically to cover all three rows on those reels. The expanded symbol then pays according to its paytable on all reels where it appears—crucially, it doesn't need to be on adjacent reels, dramatically increasing win potential.
The maximum win is capped at 5,000x your total bet in both the base game and free spins. If your total win during a free spins round reaches this cap, the round immediately ends, you're awarded the 5,000x win, and any remaining free spins are forfeited. On a $1 bet, this translates to a $5,000 maximum payout.
Buying free spins for 100x your bet gives instant access to the bonus round but comes with a slightly lower RTP (96.48% vs 96.50%). It's best suited for players with larger bankrolls who want to experience the expanding symbol mechanic without waiting for natural triggers. The feature doesn't guarantee wins—it simply bypasses the base game wait time. Budget accordingly and never chase losses.
The Explorer symbol offers the highest payout (up to $5,000 for five of a kind) but appears less frequently. Card symbols like 10, J, Q, K, A land more often but pay significantly less. Most experienced players choose mid-tier symbols like the Pharaoh or Anubis for a balance between hit frequency and win size. Your choice should reflect your risk tolerance and session bankroll.
Super Spin costs 10x your base bet per spin but transforms every base game spin into a free spins-style round with an expanding symbol. This dramatically increases hit frequency and win potential but also drains your bankroll ten times faster. The RTP is nearly identical (96.49%), so it's a playstyle preference rather than a mathematical advantage. Only use it if you have the bankroll to sustain the increased cost per spin.
