John Hunter and the Book of Tut

Of all the secrets John Hunter has uncovered, the greatest one is the value of adding the words ‘book of’ into an online casino pokies game title. This style of game has rapidly evolved into a modern classic that provides players with the expectation that they’re going to get adventure, hidden treasure and the tentative promise of riches. John Hunter and the Book of Tut is a strong addition to the category. It’s got all the elements that make pokies enthusiasts sit up and pay attention: an ancient Egyptian theme, a quest for riches and a rugged adventurer from an old-school story book. While some may say they’ve seen it all before, this version of the story adds slick graphics and new twists to the gameplay that set it apart. Pragmatic Play are great at adapting common themes and producing exciting versions that make you forget all about the originals. After all, it’s about setting the scene for online pokies enjoyment, and everyone seems to love the idea of heading into a place shrouded in history, legend and mythology.

Design

We head once again into the vast symbolic library that is ancient Egypt with the game designers as they select which ones to go for this time: scarabs, the Eye of Horus, Anubis, Cleopatra, any number of pharaohs and a host of pyramids and temples all add the right mix for a rollicking archaeological expedition. This one has the pyramids set across the banks of the rolling waters of a river, presumably the Nile, with the grid framed in gold, red and jade, to highlight the regal nature of things to come. John Hunter himself features heavily as a symbol on the reels: this is his heroic story, after all. John Hunter and the Book of Tut offers a stylish and seamless entrance into this mystical world.

Since 2015 Pragmatic Play has rapidly evolved into a market leader when it comes to producing fun pokies, having built strong strategic partnerships with key operators, launching network promotions such as Drops and Wins. With pokies classics such as the Bigger Bass Series, iconic leading characters like John Hunter in John Hunter and the Tomb of the Scarab Queen (yes, the same John Hunter!) and games with creative mechanics like Goblin Heist PowerNudge, it’s no wonder Pragmatic Play remains a firm go-to favourite for many.

Gameplay

5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines offer plenty of variety in this game, with the paylines lighting up whenever 2 premium symbols or three low-paying symbols land. The base game is fairly slow as you collect occasional winners with the hope that the book symbol will show itself. Low pays are the 10-A symbols while the high paying symbols are a scarab, a cat, Tut, and the John Hunter symbol which is most valuable at 500 times your stake for 5 of a kind. Pragmatic Play has produced bright, vivid graphics that help to update this time-worn theme.

Bonuses and features

The star of this slot is the book symbol which serves as both Wild and Scatter in John Hunter and the Book of Tut. The Wild can take the place of any other symbol on the grid to create a winning combination. In the Scatter role, if 3 or more books appear then you are awarded with 10 Free Spins. 3, 4, or 5 book symbols carry payouts of 2x, 20x, or 200x the stake to kick the bonus game off with. Before the Free Spins round, a book opens to reveal a randomly selected pay symbol that expands to cover an entire reel during the Free Spins round. 3 low pay symbols trigger a payout, while 2 premiums are required to do so.
