Description
Released in summer 2020, Master of Books slot from provider Swintt is set up on a standard 5×3 grid with just five Paylines, all of them fixed.
The storyline transports you to a distant library, where an old wizard is studying sorcery and mysticism. You’re invited to step inside and play for some magical wins! Expert some nice graphics with well-crafted detail and a strong colour palette.
How to play
Betting kicks off from just 0.05, rising to 2. And, as you’d expect, everything’s all ready to enjoy on mobile. Equally, the Autoplay option is here, which you can set for up to 500 turns of the reels. You can also use Quickstop and stop the reels immediately when you click on the game area during a spin.
Symbols are all related to the theme and incorporate the wizard, candles, owls, some magic ink and a quill, as well as the usual lesser-paying royal icons 10 through A.
The highest winning combo per Payline pays out, and Paylines pay from left to right.
Master of Books Slot Special Features
Special Symbols
The Book symbol serves simultaneously as both Wild and Scatter. It does the standard Wild job of replacing other symbols (apart from the Lucky ones described below), as well as activating the free spins round. This symbol operates separately from the game’s Paylines.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
Bag yourself at least a hat-trick of the Scatter/Wild book symbols to set this in motion and trigger a tidy 10 wager-free whirls, in the round that Swintt calls feature games rather than free spins.
Lucky Symbols
As the free spins round kicks off, one lucky symbol is drawn at random and it expands to occupy whole reels, which can lead to some massive wins. It pays even on unconnected active Paylines, as long as you hit the minimum number of winning combos.
Risk Button
Once you’ve won a round, you can gamble your most recent win in the Risk game. (Alternatively, just collect what you’ve won.)
Card Risk
Spend the winnings on your last go in a card risk game if you wish. Predict the colour of the next card correctly – black or red. Double your bet (up to nine times) or blow the lot! RTP in this feature is 100%.
Jackpot
Master of Books slot does not feature a progressive jackpot. However, there is a potential maximum win of a whopping 100,000x stake.
Return to Player
This operator tends to go for an RTP or Return to Player slightly below the industry standard, and in Master of Books slot, it’s 94.4%. You will find variance falls somewhere in the middle of the range.
Verdict
You should find a lot to enjoy in Master of Books slot, especially if you just want to turn the reels in a straightforward way without lots of complicated features. Simplicity seems to be the calling card of the Malta-based Swintt, and this slot is no exception.
If you want more bells and whistles, however, this may not be the game for you. Equally, there’s that low RTP to consider, and this is hardly the first slot themed on magic. But give it a go, playing for fun first of all. Let us know if it left you spellbound!
