Slot Summary

Within BGaming's catalog, Book of Pyramids occupies the traditional side of the studio's output: 5 reels, 9 selectable paylines, and one scarab handling both substitution and the Free Spins trigger. Its 97.31% RTP and medium volatility distinguish the math profile, while awards of 11, 22, or 33 retriggerable free spins make round length the central variable rather than a dense set of bonus modifiers.
MechanicsScarab substitution also triggers retriggerable Free Spins

How It Plays

Players may select the number of active paylines up to 9 and set the wager per line. Winning combinations form from left to right on consecutive reels.

The scarab has two functions within that simple loop. It substitutes for regular symbols on active lines and counts toward the separate Free Spins trigger.

Theme & Atmosphere

Egypt, History, Mythology, Animals, Gems, and Exploration shape a tomb-search setting populated by Tutankhamen, Bastet, the Eye of Ra, and the Ankh.

The scarab connects that historical imagery directly to play, serving as the special symbol rather than leaving the Egyptian subject as decoration alone.

Features & Win Potential

The Substitution Symbol can replace regular symbols when completing an active payline. The same scarab also functions as the Scatter for Free Spins.

Selectable paylines let the player use fewer than the full 9 lines, with the total wager reflecting both the active line count and stake per line.

Bonus & Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, or 5 scarabs awards 11, 22, or 33 free spins respectively. The spins use the stake and active paylines from the triggering round.

Qualifying scarabs can appear again during Free Spins and retrigger the corresponding award, so the bonus may extend beyond its initial number of spins.

How long could a bankroll last on Book of Pyramids? We simulate thousands of sessions from this game's published RTP and volatility — the long-run math, not a prediction of your next spin.

Running simulation…
How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (97.31%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (9,999×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
