John Hunter and the Book of Tut: the explorer and a random pick

Before the first free spin of John Hunter and the Book of Tut, the game draws one symbol at random, and that symbol stays with you for the rest of the round, retriggers included. The lobby lists the game simply as Book of Tut. At BolehSpin you open it from the Pragmatic Play lobby in your phone browser, with no app and no separate game ID, using your one BolehSpin account.

Who pays what on page 1

The highest-paying picture is an explorer: a bearded man in a brown wide-brimmed hat, framed in gold. At a RM2.00 total bet, page 1 prints RM1,000.00 for 5, RM200.00 for 4, RM20.00 for 3 and RM2.00 for 2. A golden Egyptian mask, a golden cat statue and a golden scarab with turquoise wings also pay from 2; A, K, Q, J and 10 need at least 3.

Ten numbered paylines are drawn on page 3. Line wins run from the leftmost reel rightwards over neighbouring reels; each line pays its highest win only, line wins are added together, and Free Spins wins join the payline win. Bets go from RM0.10 to RM500.00.

The red book: Scatter and Wild at once

The red book with a gold cover picture is labelled both SCATTER and WILD and substitutes for every symbol. Land 3 or more books in any positions and the FREE SPINS FEATURE opens. Its own pays are printed as multiples of total bet: 200x for 5, 20x for 4, 2x for 3.

One extra line, 5x WILD symbols pay according to the WILD symbol paytable, gets no further explanation; 200x, 20x and 2x are the only book pays printed.

The random draw before the round

Ten free spins come with the feature. A special expanding symbol is drawn at random before spin one, without any choice on your side. Each free spin pays the regular symbols first; then, if enough copies of the drawn symbol show for a win, each stretches vertically to fill all 3 positions on its reel.

Stretched, it pays from its own paytable on all reels, neighbouring or not.

Books that land during the free spins

Three or more books inside the FREE SPINS ROUND add 10 more free spins, still with the symbol drawn at the start, and page 2 sets no ceiling on how many times that can happen.

Buying the round, and HYPERPLAY

Skipping straight to the round costs 100x the current total bet, according to page 2; the bought round starts with the same 10 spins.

Page 4 lists a button that starts the HYPERPLAY feature, but none of the six rules pages says what it does. No maximum win appears in the six pages either.

A budget for the expedition

Every RM figure here belongs to a RM2.00 total bet and moves with your bet. Decide what you will spend before you begin, play small bets while you learn the stretched symbols, and stop once that amount is gone.

Book of Tut paytable

RM amounts the rules page shows at a total bet of RM2.00 for 5, 4, 3 or 2 symbols on a line; they change with your bet.

Book of Tut questions

How is the Book of Tut special symbol chosen?

Drawn at random before the free spins begin; you cannot pick it, and spins added later in the round keep it.

Can the explorer pay with only 2 symbols?

Yes: RM2.00 for 2 explorers on a line at a RM2.00 total bet, up to RM1,000.00 for 5.

What happens when 3 books land during the free spins?

10 more free spins with the symbol already drawn, and the rules pages set no limit on repeats.

What is the HYPERPLAY button?

Page 4 only says it starts the HYPERPLAY feature; what that feature does is not described.

Do I need a separate login for Book of Tut?

No. Your BolehSpin account opens it from the Pragmatic Play lobby in the phone browser.
