Book Bonanza Slot Review

The Beatles were known for many things – psychedelic album covers, cultishly devoted fans, beardy members who liked to hang out naked in bed with their partners and have the press come to watch, and being more popular than Jesus. 🙏

You’ve heard all of their famous tracks, but have you perhaps come across the 1968 song Rocky Raccoon? Yeah, me neither. But it was the inspiration for a Marvel Comics character known as Rocket Raccoon. 🦝

This anthropomorphic character was an expert marksman, tactician, and weapons specialist. As cool as he might have been back in the day, he pales in comparison with the hero of Book Bonanza slot – a BitstarzOriginals game, I might add! 💰💰

Gameplay

I’ve seen many Egyptian-themed games in my time, but never have I seen one that involves a time-traveling raccoon named Tony Jones. He must be Indiana’s cousin twice removed.

Along with Tony is a cat called Cleopatra and a camel named Chronos. Tony is Wild and replaces all symbols that aren’t Scatters, and this little critter only appears during Free Spins.

He also collects all Money symbols in view during Free Spins, which is why they have a greyed-out appearance in the base game. You’ll recognize the Money symbols by their multiplier values:

• Golden Ankh: 2x
• Scarab: 5x
• Eye of Horus: 10x
• Cobra: 15x
• Anubis: 20x
• Cleopatra’s Cat: 25x
• Monkey: 50x

The game has been lavishly designed with intense attention to detail but there’s more to it than just good looks.

There’s a $250,000 potential payout up for grabs, and an astonishing 18,162x multiplier – made all the more impressive when you realize that the volatility rate is medium to high. The RTP is 95.68%, and there are 10 paylines in this game.

Features

COLLECTOR (FREE) SPINS:

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Book symbols on a single spin is what you’ll need to nail the Free Spins round with 10, 15, or 20 spins being awarded.

At the start of the round, one Money symbol will be chosen to act as an Expanding symbol. It expands across the reels when at least 1 additional Wild Raccoon hits the grid. Expanded symbols are collected individually by each Wild Raccoon at the end of the round.

Raccoon will, as I mentioned earlier, collect all of the Money multipliers in view.

Once the collection is over, the meter to the left of the screen will have 1 position filled. Every 4th position that gets filled unlocks a new level, adds 10 spins to the mix, and increases the Money symbols’ multiplier.

Here’s a breakdown of the levels:

• Level 1: no multipliers
• Level 2: 10 extra Collector Wilds added with 2x multipliers on Money symbols
• Level 3: 10 extra Collector Wilds added with 3x multipliers on Money symbols
• Level 4: 10 extra Collector Wilds added with 10x multipliers on Money symbols

BUY BONUS:

You can pony up and sidestep the waiting with these Buy Bonus options:

• Collector Bonus: pay 89x for 10 spins
• Raccoon Riches: pay 199x for 20 spins
• Monkey King: pay 499x for 10 spins and an Expanding Monkey symbol

(ANTE) BONUS BET:

Pay a fee of 0.5x your bet for a 50% higher chance of triggering the Free Spins round. This option will stay on until you turn it off, and it will also disable the Buy Bonus option (and vice versa).

Performance

The Ancient Egyptians were ahead of their time in terms of technology, so it follows that Book Bonanza slot also kills it when it comes to magnificent creations that defy logic. I played this game across hundreds of spins and it performed flawlessly throughout.

Maximum Win

If you skipped to this part then check out these eye-popping numbers: a $250,000 potential payout and an 18,162x multiplier! Whoop whoop! 🎉🥳

Betting starts at $0.20 and is capped at $100.

Conclusion

Book Bonanza slot is a stunning game to behold but fortunately, it offers more than good looks. It’s built on a solid foundation that is impressive by any standards, especially considering that a lot of games these days offer subpar payouts vs. their volatility rates.

You’ll make your money in the Free Spins round thanks to Money symbols and Expanding symbols that are collected by the raccoon hustler, along with the 4 levels that you can climb when you fill the meter.

It’s also a nice touch to have included a Buy Bonus – and let’s face it, 89x for 10 spins ain’t bad at all – and an Ante Bet to help us get to the Free Spins round.

So, all-in-all, Book Bonanza slot ticks many boxes and it’s not a complicated game, so less experienced players should feel pretty comfortable if they wanna give it a go.
