Graphics & theme

Throughout history, explorers have searched for the legendary El Dorado. Opinions differ as to whether this referred to a fabled chief of an ancient tribe or whether El Dorado was the golden capital city of a native civilization. Maps and books claiming to contain information about El Dorado have long been part of the legend and play a prominent role in this slot.

The opening animation of Book of El Dorado takes you through the jungle to a temple setting. Lush grass and brightly-colored flowers appear in the background, giving the game the appearance of a hidden space found by an intrepid explorer.

There are ten symbols in play in the Book of El Dorado. In addition to the book itself, there are Aztec-inspired decorated playing cards. A toucan and jaguar, creatures with special significance in the mythology of Ancient South America, also appear as premium symbols. An Aztec prince and princess - perhaps El Dorado and El Dorada - complete with feathered headdresses and crowns also appear.

The graphics of this game are bright, crisp and sharp. The gameplay is well thought out, swift and smooth, with flashes of color and light when you hit a win to add to the game experience.
