Book of Eon - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

The story behind Book of Eon begins when Edward loses his beloved wife, Matilda. Distraught, he seeks out a witch who claims to have the recipe for a magic potion that can bring Matilda back to life. Edward attempts to create the potion and cast the spell, only for it to go horribly wrong and bring Matilda back as an awful zombie, not the beautiful maiden he loved. Now Edward must search for a way to reverse the spell and send Matilda back to the afterlife.

In this five-reel, three-row, ten-payline slot, you can help Edward break the curse (and win yourself some impressive prizes) by matching 3+ symbols (2+ for the higher-value symbols) along a payline starting on the leftmost reel. The spellbook acts as a Wild in this slot and can replace any symbols to help you land longer combinations and bigger prizes.

This spellbook is doubly magical, as it doesn’t just act as the Wild in Book of Eon but also works as the Scatter, triggering the free spins bonus round when you land 3+ in any position on the reels. The free spins round also includes special features such as expanding symbols, which we’ll look at in more detail later in this slot review.

If that’s not enough excitement for you, Spinmatic have also incorporated a Gamble Feature into Book of Eon, allowing you to double-or-nothing your winnings by guessing whether a potion will reveal beautiful live Matilda or the gruesome zombie woman Edward turns her into.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Book of Eon is a wonderfully designed Halloween themed slot, with a haunted forest visible behind the reels complete with an intense-looking owl with glowing eyes. The reels themselves are decorated in a dark red velvet and covered in cobwebs, while the symbols include the witch, Edward, Matilda and a bottle of magic potion along with the Book of Eon itself and some classic A - 10 symbols that have also been given a Halloween-style makeover. The soundtrack also suits the theme and includes a creepy melody that plays as the reels spin.

Bonus Features

As mentioned, the Book of Eon is the Wild and Scatter in this slot, and 3+ appearances in any position on a single spin will trigger 10x free spins. At the beginning of this feature, one symbol is selected at random to become an Expanding Symbol with the ability to cover three positions on the reels and pay out even on non-adjacent positions.

Conclusion

Overall, we thought Book of Eon was a really interesting Halloween slot with a great storyline and rewarding free spins bonus. We would have liked to see more high-value symbols appear on the reels, but as they paid out for 2+ combinations we didn’t need quite so many to receive rewards.
