Book of Nile Lost Chapter - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Book of Nile Lost Chapter is the latest game in the Book of Nile series from game designer NetGame Entertainment. This high volatility game has an RTP of 96.10 per cent and is played across 10 fixed win lines across 5x3 reels.

The game is set in the desert, where an adventurer in the style of Indiana Jones seeks the eponymous magical book. The paying symbols include a pharaoh cloaked in mystery, the goddess Isis, an Egyptian cat, and the usual high playing cards.

By landing three scatter book symbols, the player will trigger 10 free games and an expanding symbol, which is randomly chosen from the pages of the book. This expanding symbol is the key to bigger wins but cannot be substituted by a scatter symbol during this phase of the game. This feature can be bought for a 185x multiple of your stake.

The expanded symbols also win free spins during this special feature. Two or three expanded symbols trigger one extra free spin, four will reward you with two more spins, and five will win three more spins.

The top prize is a massive 13,000x when you find the magical book in the bonus game.

There is also a bonus gamble feature with a wheel divided into quarters, with the winning and losing sectors clearly indicated. The gamble feature is only available for wins of up to 500x your stake. The bonus game ends if you lose your gamble.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

NetGame Entertainment has taken us back to the scene of one of its greatest triumphs with this game set in the land of the pharaohs by the river Nile. The reels are set on a veranda looking out over the pyramids at sunset. The symbols are beautifully designed, with even the card symbols evoking the era.

Meanwhile, the movie-quality soundtrack slips between an upbeat section as our hero sets out on his journey to a doom-laden theme that suggests disappointment ahead.

Book of Nile Lost Chapter RTP and variance

Book of Nile Lost Chapter review: our verdict

This is a great game from NetGame Entertainment and builds solidly on its predecessor. The graphics are of high quality, and the golden pyramid that signals big wins is a welcome sight.

Steady if infrequent wins are available in the base game, with two big bonuses once you are in the free spins. Firstly, the expanding wild helps to produce more free spins; secondly, the scatter symbol still appears. Bigger wins are available in this section, with the additional free spin opportunities meaning that the section can easily be prolonged.

You can, of course, also buy into this bonus game if you do not have the patience to win the opportunity.

Finally, we were glad to see the gamble feature available to give the player the chance to boost those smaller wins.

All-in-all, this is a game that should appeal to players of all levels and bankrolls.
