The Book symbol performs two roles. In the base game it replaces other symbols as a Wild, while 3 or more Books trigger Free Games. This makes the Book a key element in both ordinary spins and the bonus round.

During Free Games, a special symbol is selected and can expand across the reels to help form larger payouts. The mechanic is familiar to fans of Book slots, but Book of 8 Riches adds an orb system and Jackpot Mania.

Bonus features

Free Games are the main bonus mode. Once triggered, players receive a series of free spins in which the selected symbol can expand and create additional combinations on active paylines.

The Collection Meter is linked to green and golden orbs. Green orbs help fill the meter, while golden orbs move the game closer to Super Jackpot Mania. Entering Jackpot Mania activates a Hold and Respins format in which players collect prize symbols and can unlock additional winning potential.

Jackpot Mania makes the game more varied than a standard Book-style slot. Books and Free Games are not the only important elements: collecting orbs means that every spin can contribute towards the additional bonus feature.

Theme and style

The slot uses an Egyptian adventure style. Its reels feature a pharaoh, queen, scarab, artefacts, the Book, orbs and card symbols. Book of 8 Riches belongs to the following categories: Egyptian slots, Book slots and video slots.

The visual design combines golden shades, sandy backgrounds, ancient symbols and a treasure-hunting atmosphere. The classic 5×3 grid keeps the game clear, while Jackpot Mania adds a modern bonus layer.
