Introduction 

If you’re a fan of adventure and exploration Indiana Jones-style then you’ll love Ed Jones and Book of Bastet.

Along with this are some pretty impressive graphics and animations as well as a mysterious soundtrack that really adds atmosphere to the game.

Overall Theme 

This is an adventure slot that has an Indiana Jones type feel to it. When you first enter the game screen you will hear the noise of crackling fires. These 2 fires sit underneath the reels and crackle throughout the game. The soundtrack is almost spooky as you sit inside an Egyptian tomb, ready to spin the reels. On either side of the reels are two statues with a staircase leading up the centre of the screen. You can play another similarly themed game in the Book of Dead slot

Ed Jones and Book of Bastet RTP and Variance


 
Ed Jones and Book of Bastet has a really good RTP which is a great thing for players who plan on playing the title for real money. It has been set at 96.9% which is almost 1% above the industry average. The slot has been given a high variance. This means that the prizes are for larger amounts of money but you will have to spin the reels a lot to see them appear. For example, we span the reels 10 times and won 5 of those spins, but they were only for small amounts of money.
