Book of Ra 6 Slot Review for 2021

A five or six-reel slot with an RTP of 95%, Book of Ra 6 only really comes into its own when you add the sixth reel. This changes the betting limits from $0.20-$50 as they are for five reels, to $0.40-$100 for six. The change won’t suit everyone, especially not lower rollers, but the sixth reel version of this slot is substantially better. If you want to play the five-reel version, you can just play Book of Ra Deluxe (as it’s the same game).

10 paylines are in play here and the theme is based around Ancient Egypt, set inside a giant pyramid. This slot is an improvement on the original visually, but the design is still relatively simple, and with such an often-used theme, other slots execute it better.

The interest in Book of Ra 6 comes in the gameplay and features, especially when that all-important sixth reel is in play.

The point that you realize how important that sixth reel is, is when you look at the paytable. Even the lowest value symbols (10, J, and Q) which pay 25 coins for three, 125 coins for four, and 500 coins for five, fly up for a six of a kind combination, paying out 2,500 coins.

• the K and A playing card symbols offer an impressive 3,750 coins for six on a payline.

• the Pharaoh symbol pays 25, 200, 2,000, 10,000 and 25,000 coins for three, four, five, or six of a kind,
• the highest value symbol, the valiant explorer and hero of the slot, pays 50 coins for two, 500 for three, 5,000 for four, 25,000 for five, and a staggering 75,000 coins for six on a payline.

There’s also a scatter symbol, the Book of Ra itself, which as well as triggering the bonus feature, also pays 100 coins for three on a payline, 1,000 coins for four, 10,000 for five, and 20,000 for six.

This scatter also acts as the game’s wild and will help to complete winning combinations, it’s a busy symbol!

Three or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will take you to the Free Games feature, which gives you 10 free spins.

This is a feature of all Book of Ra games and benefits from a randomly chosen expanding symbol. This symbol covers all three positions on the reels, so if it lands on multiple reels it can really pay off. If you’re lucky enough to get one of the higher value symbols as the expanding one, and it happens to land on all six reels (assuming you’ve activated the sixth), then the results can be huge with a max win of 750,000 available for the explorer appearing in every reel position covering all ten paylines across all six reels!

This medium to high volatility (variance) slot is well suited to mobile, as are the other Book of Ra slots in the series. The graphics work nicely on smartphone screens, being simple but still attractive. In fact, with its not overly complex gameplay as well, the simplicity of the Book of Ra 6 online slot makes it best suited to mobile play in our opinion.

Whether played via an online casino site or downloaded from an app store, this slot lends itself nicely to the smaller screen and touchscreen controls of mobile play.

Bally is a licensed and regulated software developer that has been owned by the SG Gaming Group since 2014 but had decades of experience before that. Bally is best-known for producing Asian-themed slots for land-based casinos in Vegas as well as in many Asian markets.

It’s no surprise, therefore, that Quick Hit Las Vegas celebrates Sin City’s brick-and-mortar casinos. Originally an online slot, Quick Hit Las Vegas joins the likes of Double Dragon, Lady Robin Hood, and Fu Dao Le is a slot that has been successfully converted to an online environment.

If you’ve played Book of Ra Deluxe, you may wonder why you’d bother with Book of Ra 6, after all, it’s just the same game with an optional extra reel. But we really must emphasize how much of a difference that extra reel makes to gameplay!

Deluxe was already a big step up from the original Book of Ra slot, and by adding reel 6, this slot has raised the bar again. With the huge wins for six-reel combinations, and the potential to fill all six reels with high-value symbols in the free spins feature, Book of Ra 6 offers the potential to pick up some big wins.
