Play Book of 8 Riches Slot

If there’s one thing slot developers never seem to tire of, it’s Ancient Egypt. Book of 8 Riches leans into this well-trodden theme, giving players another chance to dig through the sand for treasures. Developed with a focus on jackpots and growing symbols, this slot doesn’t just stick to the usual Book of... formula — it layers on extra features like the Jackpot Mania mechanic and a Pyramid Map collection system. 

The game sticks to a traditional 5-reel, 3-row setup with 10 paylines. Wins pay from left to right, and the minimum bet starts at 0.10. What stands out is the inclusion of jackpot-style bonuses, which is not something every Book of... slot offers. The Book of 8 symbol serves as both the wild and the scatter, potentially triggering free spins while also substituting for other symbols.  

This isn’t the first Book of... title to come from a developer keen on jackpot mechanics. It takes cues from previous jackpot-rich slots but builds on them with extra layers of progression and collection-based bonuses. It’s a mix of classic Book of... gameplay with some modern jackpot twists.

The slot’s symbols are a mix of classic Egyptian imagery and standard card ranks. The premium symbols include an explorer, a sphinx, a pharaoh, and a scarab beetle, each with its own payout potential. A breakdown of the symbols is given in the table below: 

The Book of 8 symbol plays a dual role as both the wild and scatter. As a scatter, it can trigger free spins: 

3 scatters – 8 free spins + 10x total bet 

4 scatters – 8 free spins + 50x total bet 

5 scatters – 8 free spins + 200x total bet 

As a wild, it substitutes for all symbols except the green and gold orbs. It also contributes to payouts on its own. 

Jackpot Mania 

Landing six or more green orbs on the reels activates the Jackpot Mania feature. During the free spins, only five green orbs are needed to trigger it. Each green orb carries a prize or a jackpot, and the available jackpots include: 

• Mini Jackpot – 20x the total bet 
• Minor Jackpot – 50x the total bet 
• Major Jackpot – 200x the total bet 

Super Jackpot Mania 

A more enhanced version of the jackpot feature, Super Jackpot Mania activates when gold orbs appear on the reels. These also contain cash prizes or jackpot rewards: 

• Mini Jackpot – 20x the average bet 
• Major Jackpot – 200x the average bet 

Growing Symbols 

During the Free Spins bonus, a random symbol is selected as the growing symbol. If this symbol lands and contributes to a win, it expands to cover its entire reel, paying out even if not on adjacent positions. 

Pyramid Map Collection 

A Pyramid Map collection feature keeps track of progress throughout the game. The meter has nine positions, and when it reaches 70, a gold orb is added. Filling the map entirely unlocks the Super Jackpot Mania round. 

For another take on the Book of... formula, Book of Dead by Play’n GO remains a staple of the genre. Those looking for a jackpot-focused alternative might enjoy Legacy of Dead, which builds on similar mechanics. All the titles are available at Heart Bingo.
