Books and Pearls Respins of Amun-Re Review

This game might not be the most innovative, but it does deliver experiences that are surprisingly complex. So, let’s dig a bit deeper into this 5x3 affair that allows you to choose between two sets of paylines (5/10)!

The one big issue is the game’s combination of themes. On one hand, its base game is all about pirates and treasures. On the other hand, the Respins of Amun-Re feature is all about the Egyptians! It’s a pretty strange mix, really, and we aren’t convinced that it can ever work well. As far as the actual audiovisuals are concerned, it is perhaps a bit below average.

Looking at the game’s math model, we can tell you that it comes with a high volatility level, and that the game’s top fixed jackpot stands at 1,500x your bet. Higher wins are possible under certain circumstances as well, and you can jump in for all kinds of stakes between £0.10 and £100 per spin. Finally, the theoretical RTP is 96.10%, which is slightly above average.

Books and Pearls Respins of Amun-Re Game Features

There are 10 pay symbols, and they are divided into 6 low-paying symbols and 4 high-paying symbols. For low-paying symbols, there are card ranks from Nines to Aces, and these pay up to 7.5x your bet for a combination. For high-paying symbols, there are anchors, ship bells, treasure chests, and even ships. Ships are the top-paying symbols, and you’ll get to walk away with a 100x payout for a set of five. It’s also worth noting that treasure chests and ships pay out even in sets of just two symbols.

For special symbols, there are Wilds, Book Scatters, Pearl Scatters, and Bonus symbols. Wilds can naturally substitute for any of the game’s pay symbols in winning combinations, and they also come with nice payout values of their own. If you get a set of 5, you’ll win a 250x payout!

With the basic info now fully out of the way, let’s take a look at all the different bonus features that you can enjoy. First up, there’s the Book Free Spins feature that you can trigger by landing 3 or more Book Scatters in view. You’ll get 10 free spins with possible retriggers, and these come with randomly-chosen Bonus symbols that can expand to cover entire reels and pay out even when not fully adjacent. In other words, these free spins follow the popular “Book of” formula.

Next, there’s the Pearl Free Spins feature, which you can trigger by landing 3 or more Pearl Scatters on the playing field. You’ll get 15 free spins with possible retriggers, and the kicker here is that all wins are automatically tripled.

If you manage to land 5 or more Bonus symbols, you’ll launch the Respins of Amun-Re feature, which follows the Hold and Win formula. You’ll get 3 respins to work with, and each new Bonus symbol that appears automatically resets the counter back to 3. Importantly, you can grab special Jackpot Bonus symbols to win various fixed jackpots that are worth up to 500x your bet. And, if you manage to fill the entire board with Bonus symbols, you’ll get the Super-Ra jackpot worth 1,500x your bet!

Finally, there are also two Gamble features that can take your winnings to new heights. One of those features is your classic card-guessing minigame, while the other is a simple ladder minigame.

Review Summary

Truth be told, Books and Pearls Respins of Amun-Re is a rather strange game. It combines two themes in a fairly awkward manner, and it just doesn’t make much sense as a whole. Still, we do have to give the game some credit for its excellent mix of gameplay features, and there are no major weak points in it all. It’s just strange and confusing, though you might very well enjoy it if you’re into games that offer a lot in terms of gameplay!
