Legacy of Dead Slot Review

Legacy of Dead Slot Details & Wager Limits

The Legacy of Dead slot comes with 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines. You can opt to play with the full paylines as little as 1 per spin. Wins are created by landing 2, 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols across any of the 10 paylines.

You will need 3 or more for the low value royals. All winning combinations must begin from reel 1 to be valid. For example, you will need to land the Tutankhamen symbol on reels 1, 2 and 3 to get 10 times your stake.

With coin values ranging from 1p to £2 per spin, you can also choose between 1 and 5 coins. Assuming you’re playing with 10 paylines, you can spin away from 10p to £100 per spin. Like other Play ‘n GO video slots, you can opt for Auto Play – you can choose from 20 to 100 spins. You can also stop Auto Play when you trigger the feature, lose/win a certain amount or a single win is achieved.

Highly volatile, and classed by developer Play ‘n GO as 10/10 on the variance front, the maximum win per spin is 5,000 x your total stake. This can be won by filling the reels with wilds or the high value Mummy symbol.

Legacy of Dead RTP – 96.58%

The Legacy of Dead RTP is 96.58%. This is the default RTP but can be as low as 84.55% in some cases. Make sure you check the casinos you’re playing at though. When it comes to RTP, this is high and is favourable against the slot’s predecessor, Book of Dead:

Theme – Audio & Design features – intense feel

The Legacy of Dead slot has an ancient Egyptian theme and is set within an ancient burial chamber. Following on from Book of Dead, the story is that the book is open and the King’s spirit has escaped. You need to use his ancient power to discover riches untold. If you want to read about these ancient rulers, check out the National Geographic’s article on pharaohs.

With stunning high definition graphics and animations, it’s based on an ancient Egyptian King whose desire for riches couldn’t be stopped by death. With a dark and sinister feel, it has a stirring soundtrack which adds to the intensity.

Symbols on the reels include low value  A, K, Q, J and 10 royals. You’ll also see Horus, Tutankhamen, Anubis and the King himself (appearing as a Mummy). The King is the most rewarding symbol paying 1, 10, 100 or 500 x stake for 2, 3, 4 or 5 across a payline.

You will also see the altar symbol which is the wild and scatter. Like the King, 2, 3, 4 or 5 on a payline will reward you with 1, 10, 100 or 500 x your total stake. It will also substitute for all symbols as it’s also the scatter. Here’s what each of the symbols pay:

Symbol	Payout
10	3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2 or 8 x stake
J	3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2 or 8 x stake
Q	3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2 or 8 x stake
K	3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 3 or 12 x stake
A	3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 3 or 12 x stake
Horus	2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2, 8 or 60 x stake
Tutankhamen	2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2, 8 or 60 x stake
Anubis	2, 3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 3, 30 or 160 x stake
King	2, 3, 4 or 5 = 1, 10, 100 or 500 x stake
Altar Wild/Scatter	2, 3, 4 or 5 = 1, 10, 100 or 500 x stake

Legacy of Dead Mobile

Legacy of Dead was created by developer Play ‘n GO using HTML5 technology. This means it’s  playable on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. Seeing that it has 5 reels and 3 rows, it’s perfect for playing on smartphone devices. It’s compatible with iOS, Android and/or Windows operated devices.

Legacy of Dead Bonus Features

Like its predecessor, Book of Dead, the Legacy of Dead game comes with 1 bonus feature. You’ll get free spins with plenty of expanding symbols hopefully.

Free Spins feature

The main attraction in Legacy of Dead is the Free Spins feature which is triggered when you get 3 or more wild/scatters on the reels. 3, 4 or 5 will give you 2, 20 or 200 x your total stake as well as 10 free spins.

A special expanding symbol is randomly chosen. When the symbol appears, it will take over the whole reel which increases your chances of winning more. For example: if you were to get 5 special expanding symbols on a free spin, they will all expand to fill all 5 reels with the same symbol. If you get a high value symbol, the wins can be spectacular.

Getting 3 wild scatters on the reels will result in a retrigger of the Free Spins feature. As well as 10 more free spins, you will benefit from another special expanding symbol. In fact, you can retrigger various times giving lots of additional free spins as well as up to 9 special expanding symbols. You can get unlimited free spins if the scatters keep landing favourably.

Retriggers make it easier, in theory, to fill the reels with 1 particular symbol. With Book of Dead, there’s only 1 special expanding symbol on show. Here’s what you would win, per free spin, if you had all 5 reels with the same symbol:

Legacy of Dead Review Summary –  Book of Dead with higher RTP + more expanding symbols

If you thought Book of Dead was good, the Legacy of Dead slot is even better. Graphically, it has a darker feel which matches up with the extreme variance. The key to winning big is from the free spins.

If you were to fill the reels with the high value King or wild/scatters, you’d win 5,000 x your stake (500 x stake x 10 paylines). The chances of winning big dramatically increase in the Free Spins feature due to the possibility of playing with 9 special expanding symbols. With enough retriggers, each free spin could see a screen full of a different symbol.

Highly volatile, there’s a maximum win limit of 25,000 times your stake in the Free Spins feature which is pretty good. The chances of winning this is 1 in over 3.75 million spins though.

Legacy of Dead is very similar to the iconic Book of Dead but with the possibility of 8 more special expanding symbols. This means you don’t need to depend on just the 1 special expanding symbol to deliver big wins in the free spins feature.
