John Hunter and the Book of Tut Respin Review
John Hunter has been on many treasure hunts, often revisiting the land of the Pharaohs. John Hunter and the Book of Tut Respin is a remake of the original John Hunter And The Book Of Tut, but with a twist affecting both the base game and the bonus round.
Instead of a featureless base game, you get expanding symbol respins regularly. The symbol is randomly selected, and respins can lead to full-screen payouts topping at 1,000x your stake. The bonus round is similar, offering a potential of 4,000x. This is an entertaining addition worth trying.

John Hunter and the Book of Tut Respin Slot Features
The premium symbols pay between 30 and 100 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and a random pay symbol is selected by the book regularly in the base game. The selected symbol becomes the Mystery symbol for that spin, and you need at least 3 instances anywhere in view to trigger the Mystery Respins feature.
The mystery symbols expand to cover the full reel, and they don’t need to be adjacent to pay. The non-expanded reels respin, and landing new mystery symbols expands that reel(s), also providing another respin of whatever reels remain unexpanded. The feature ends when you land no new mystery symbols, or fill the screen.
The Book symbol serves as both wild and scatter, and as a wild it helps complete wins. As a scatter, you need 3, 4, or 5 in view, triggering the Bonus Round with a scatter payout of 2x, 20x, or 200x your stake, respectively. You get 10 free spins, and a pay symbol is randomly selected upfront to be the mystery symbol.
The Mystery Symbol acts the same way in the bonus round, expanding to fill the reels when enough instances land. This also triggers a respin of the remaining reels, and you get +10 extra spins when 3+ book scatter/wilds land on the same free spin. The mystery symbol doesn’t change, but there is no cap on extra spins.
Non-UK players may access the Bonus Buy feature, purchasing the bonus round for 100x the stake, choosing the mystery symbol freely upfront. The bonus buy feature has an RTP of 96.48 %, and the feature triggers organically once in 305 spins on average.

Review Summary
Not much has changed in the audiovisual department since the original release, but the game lives up to expectations. The twist is the Respins feature, occurring regularly in the base game. This keeps the grind more interesting, but symbol values are lower.
Full-screen wins top at 1,000x your stake, low compared to the 5,000x norm. The 4,000x potential is another trade-off, with a 1 in 10,204,081 probability. Some may prefer a dry base game for a larger bonus round potential, but John Hunter and the Book of Tut Respin is a balanced and entertaining game where respins give extra chances to fill the grid.
