Slot Details
Word of Thoth is a 6×4 video slot with cascading reels and 4096 ways to pay. Wins are paid for matching 3 or more symbols from left to right. Winning symbols explode, revealing space for more symbols to tumble down into, creating a potential sequence of wins that pay the tally at the end. You can join the architect of the pyramids from 0.20 to 100 credits per spin on desktop, tablet or mobile devices. Word of Thoth has a hit frequency of 20.88% plus a high volatility rating with an RTP of 96.12%.
A dark and mysterious Egyptian temple backdrop with a Thoth-columned play area, provides the setting in Word Of Thoth against a foreboding soundtrack. The lurking mist adds to the suspense and is lit with a magical purple glow during the bonus round. The tablet themed symbols explode in the cascade sequence and crumble away. In the top left, an Egyptian themed game meter charges, which can add to the excitement.
The pay symbols start at the low end from 9 through to Ace awarding up to 1.7x your bet, for six of a kind. The Eye Of Ra and Egyptian Star pay 2x, with the Ankh closely following at 2.5x for six of a kind. The Amulet will give x7 for the same and Thoth himself, pays 25x your stake for six of a kind. A green tablet represents the bonus scatters and landing three or more will grant free spins. A similarly-designed wild substitutes for all symbols except scatters and does not explode during the free spins bonus.
Word Of Thoth Slot Features
Jade Rabbit Studio say ‘we are slotheads’. Fuelled by Yggdrasils YGG Masters Program, they have built a smooth and impressive slot for a studio so fresh. Cascading slots with Egyptian themes are not hard to find, but let’s see what features this reel journey carries.
Each exploding win contributes to a potential sequence known as cascading during a basic game round. Wins fill a slot of the Word of Thoth game meter. Each scatter during a cascade will also complete one slot. Filling the meter with five slots awards the free spins bonus with the meter resetting between spins.
The Word of Thoth free spins bonus can be triggered by 3 or more scatters landing on the reels or filling the game meter. Ten free spins, plus a further two for each meter slot filled during the leading cascade, add to the number of free spins. You can also bonus buy 10 free spins for 80 times your stake at the same RTP value.
During the Word Of Thoth free spins round the meter will assist with multipliers and extra spins when filled. 3 of 5 slots will give an extra spin plus adds 3x to the bonus game multiplier. 4 of 5 meter slots filled adds 5x and 2 spins. A full meter adds an astonishing 10x and 5 additional free spins. Wilds do not explode during a cascade sequence either, remaining until the next spin. The bonus multiplier holds its value for the entire round and should you fill two slots to complete the meter just the top prize is awarded.
