John Hunter and the Book of Tut Bonus Features

All the bonus action in this adventure game is centred around the title’s one bonus symbol, the gleaming book bonus symbol.

Book Wilds

In its capacity as a wild symbol, the book can substitute for regular pay symbols to help you complete paylines and win rewards. The book also pays out for payline wins as follows:

  • 3 book scatters = 2x
  • 4 book scatters = 20x
  • 5 book scatters = 200x

Free Spins Bonus

To trigger the free spins bonus, you need three scatter symbols to appear on the reels at the same time, which awards you with 10 free spins for the round.

Before the bonus starts, a random regular pay symbol is selected to act as a special expanding symbol for the duration of the bonus round. On a winning spin, after the regular payouts have been awarded, any expanding symbols on the reels will expand vertically to cover all positions on the reel it occupies if this will trigger a further win.

If you land three or more scatters during the round, 10 more free spins are awarded. There is no limit to how many retriggers can occur during the bonus.
