How to Play John Hunter and the Book of Tut Slot

- Reels will start moving the moment you hit Spin button
- Autoplay opens up a panel where you can choose Turbo Spin, Quick Spin and the number of automated spins.

Slot Features
The holy book is both the Scatter and the Wild symbol which can substitute for all the other symbols in the game. Additionally, since it is also the Scatter, landing at least 3 of them anywhere on the reels will trigger the Bonus Spins round. When it acts as a Wild, the payouts can be paid for 3 or more Scattered Wilds, and for 5 of theme you will get paid x200 your bet.
Free Spins
Once the feature is triggered you will get awarded with 10 spins, and before the round starts, a special expanding symbol will get selected randomly to follow you throughout the feature. During the round, after the payout of regular symbols, the special symbol will expand vertically to cover the entire reel. However, this expansion will not occur if there are not enough symbols to form a win, so when the special one expands, be sure the win is yours.
Landing additional Scatters will retrigger the feature and award 10 more spins, and the round will be played with the current round’s special symbol. The good thing is that the Free Spins round can be retriggered unlimited number of times. However, if you don’t want to wait for the feature to trigger, you can buy-in and start from the base game for x100 total bet.
Summary
John Hunter and the Book of Tut is another game in John Hunter series which is a clear clone of the Book of Ra. Nevertheless, thanks to the high volatility, and maximum payout which is capped at x5000 we would encourage you to give it a spin, especially if you loved the first three parts. The first impression we got is that this is the best one yet, although it seems ordinary, but we want you to be the judge of that.
Okay, so here we go with yet one more Book game, this time itâs John Hunter and the Book of Tut, by none other than the King of Games Recycler, Pragmatic Play. Thereâs also a sequel to this game, entitled Book of Tut Respins, but weâll go to that maybe later on, or maybe not at all.
What more can anyone say but âif youâve played a Book game, then youâve played all Book gamesâ. In a way thatâs true, but not all the time though. Some versions have added additional feature or features into it, giving slightly different game plays and winning possibilities, and all for the better of course. This Book of Tut game, however, is a basic one, or should I say, the original kind one.
Needless to say, almost all Book games play with 10 paylines and with a minimum starting bet of just 0.10 per spin. This is why I like them a lot and still play Book games whenever I get the chance. The maximum win is also an attractive point to consider, being 5000x the bet for getting all of the top paying symbol, which in this game is the John Hunter symbol, and also that the 10 free spins feature game can be retriggered quite a number of times too. Some games have no retriggering possibility at all, so I donât really like such games.
Iâve played this Book Of Tut game on numerous occasions and at various casinos as usual, but most of the time I wouldnât be able to get any good wins from it. Itâs a really hard game to play and to win on, but on one lucky day, Lady Luck was with me, and I managed to get all of the second top symbol, the Anubis, or is that a Golden Cat instead? Anyhow, it gave me a nice 802x win for once, but no more after that, even till today. Never even got close to getting all of John Hunter symbols, but thatâs normal I guess. Only on one game by Playtech have I ever won the maximum win of 5000x, not once but twice. In fact, Iâve never had any maximum win on any of Pragmatic games, and thatâs why I donât really like them.
