Book of Heroes Review

Young and ambitious Golden Rock Studios has a reputation of a creative slot developer, and its portfolio counts many exciting slots with prominent gameplay and unique features. This time, however, the studio returns to a well-known territory, and we're talking, of course, about the 'book' niche. Book of Heroes is built on the same features and math of the developer's older Book of Inti slot, which is, in turn, makes use of the familiar 'book' mechanics.

Book of Heroes - Slot Outlook

The Book of Heroes slot definitely looks refreshing in the niche of 'book' games not only thanks to its flashy gameplay but first and foremost the vibrant outer look. The first thing that catches the eye is a lovely peaceful setting meticulously done with high attention to detail. The semi-transparent reels are set in a backdrop of a serene forest, where rays of sunlight cut through tree crowns and fall at the lush greenery. We should certainly give credit to the design team since graphics are at the highest level, much like the soundtrack, which adds a final touch to the action.

Book of Heroes Slot - Reel Screen

In true 'book' fashion, the game plays out on a standard 5x3 layout with 10 winlines. Players drop in by setting bets from $0.1 to $40 per spin, which probably should appeal to both casual players and high-rollers. The volatility is high, and the RTP is slightly above the average at 96.06%. The overall potential is 5,640x the stake, which is a tad higher than the common 5,000x max win, so that is appreciated.

The paytable in the Book of Heroes slot is made up of 9 regular symbols that are split into two categories. Traditionally, the lower section consists of classic A-10 royal symbols, while the premiums include in ascending order bows, shields and swords, an enchantress, and a knight. All higher-paying symbols pay from two-of-a-kind and more, and lows need at least 3 instances on a line to award a payout. 5-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth from 10x to 15x your bet, and premiums pay from 75x to 500x your bet.

Book of Heroes - Bonus Features

Like any other 'book' slot, Book of Heroes revolves around the popular Free Spins feature, but Golden Rock Studios delivered a huge twist to the bonus where you can unlock additional extras.

Keep an eye for book symbols, which are both Wild and Scatter. Thus, those not only substitute for any other regular symbol but also play into the Free Spins feature whenever 3 or more appears anywhere in view during the base game. Landing 3, 4, or 5 book symbols simultaneously on the reels awards 8 free spins to start as well as gives a payout of 2x, 20x, or 200x total bet respectively.

Once triggered, players will proceed to the Book of Heroes Totem that consists of 3 segments. The first one reveals the special Expanding Symbol for the Free Spins, and the other two award additional spins and remove a random symbol from the reels for the remainder of the bonus. You start from the bottom section, and you can progress to the next level totem by landing an arrow symbol in the highlighted segment on the special reel.

Retriggers are possible, plus you get new spins at the totem on each retrigger. That means that you can not only get additional spins but also get multiple Expanding Symbols as well as remove multiple symbols from the reels, up to 4.

Book of Heroes - Slot Verdict

With the Book of Heroes slot, Golden Rock Studios cloned its own creation called Book of Inti, and the only room to get creative in the makeover was the skin. The gameplay and math remained the same, while the theme has switched from Mayan to a fancy Medieval fantasy. Anyway, let's drop the originality and move to the gameplay, which is bound to be enjoyed by slotters.

Although sticks to the familiar 'book' concept, the Book Heroes surely stands out from the niche with its fortune totem in the free spins that adds a new layer of excitement to the session. Symbol removals and additional free games create bigger winning opportunities in the bonus game, and a couple of retriggers can surely bring you a fortune. All up, Book of Heroes is a decent slot, leaning towards unmissable for those into the genre.
