Ancient Egypt is a familiar destination for those online slots fans looking for some culture and here we have one more chance to enjoy the temples and heat of North Africa; this one’s called Book of Atem, it’s developed by Microgaming/All41 Studios and it offers players free spins and expanding symbols.
Book of Atem is a five reel slot with three rows and ten fixed paylines; it looks great as we’ve come to expect from All41 Studios with those transparent reels floating against a backdrop of temples, fish ponds and palm trees.
The four high value symbols include the Pharaoh, the bird, the snake and the flower; 10, J, Q, K and A represent the lower values.
The Book of Atem itself is both the wild and the scatter symbol and it will replace all standard ones to help form winning combinations. It also activates the main feature but we’ll get to that shortly.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
This is triggered by landing at least three of the wild/scatter Book of Atem symbols anywhere in view and you’ll be awarded ten free spins initially; before the round starts the book will reveal one symbol (except for the wild/scatter) which will expand to fill all positions on its reel whenever it appears.
The good news is that landing three more wild/scatters during this round will award ten more free spins.
Verdict
There’s no shortage of Egyptian-themed slots for players to enjoy but Book of Atem is certainly one of the better ones – it doesn’t have too many bonus features but it looks good, the gameplay is fast-moving and there are some big wins in the free spins.
