Book of Wealth Slot Review

Here’s an interesting fact about the studio that produced our next game, Book of Wealth slot. Mancala is the name of a family board game that originated in Africa.

Mancala, when translated into Arabic, is “naqala” – which means “to move”. The object of the game the studio takes its moniker from involves moving small objects around a board, with the goal being to capture as many of the objects as possible.

Sounds easy enough. Let’s see if their latest slot is equally easy.

Gameplay

I was wondering when my first Egyptian-themed game would roll along for 2023 and here it is. Mancala has opted to go for an uninspiring interpretation with the usual statues and artifacts behind the 5x3-reel grid.

The grid is small in landscape mode compared to the screen’s real estate. Portrait mode looks far better as the reels take up the screen's width, making the symbols more prominent and easier to see if you’re playing on the go.

I like the design of the controls, and if you’re looking for the Autoplay button, you need to long-press the SPIN one to set how many spins you want.

What isn’t great is how the hamburger menu has been placed at the top left of the screen. It’s even more challenging to use as that’s where the back arrow is.

The menu items are tiny, so unless you have fingers like a mosquito’s proboscis, you might find yourself uttering some choice words. Like I did.

So, let me address the elephant in the room – despite this being a high volatility game, the max win is a dreary €68,200. What the actual? The RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots. RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. comes in at 95% and at least there are no currency limitations so you can play with your preferred fiat or cryptocurrency.

As you might expect from a “Book of” slot, the Wild is also the Scatter – so it substitutes for all other symbols – and 3 or more will set off the Free Spins round. Oh, and Scatter Wilds also pay out wherever they land.

Features

FREE SPINS WITH EXPANDING SYMBOLS:

Triggering this feature gets you 10 spins, along with special Expanding symbols. Scatter Wilds can’t replace the Expanding symbols, by the way.

The Expanding symbol is chosen randomly at the start of the round and can cover 3 positions on a reel. An additional 10 Free Spins can be re-triggered by landing 3 extra Scatter Wilds.

Performance

After testing the pants off Book of Wild slot, I can confidently say that you shouldn’t experience any loading issues or glitches of any sort. Neither a change of browser nor device will unsettle it.

Maximum Win

Yeah, so that €68,200 top prize isn’t the only anemic stat here – there’s also the 1,364x max multiplier which isn’t exactly scintillating.

The betting spread is decent though, starting at €0.10 and hitting its cap at €50.

Conclusion

I have to say that I didn’t mind the gameplay on Book of Wealth slot for some reason. I imagine that the typical user might be playing on a mobile device, and it’s ideally suited to that purpose.

The thing that might stick in your craw is the max win, given the volatility rate, but interestingly enough, I raked in some decent ka-ching throughout my testing. So, if you’re not fazed by chasing the top prize, it’s all good.

Oh, and as a last point, the Free Spins round also came in regularly and that’s where you’ll make the most moolah.

Check it out – it’s better than you might think.
