When you play Book of the Sphinx slot, you will notice that its design is exactly what you would expect for an Egyptian themed game. The reels are set inside a firelit tomb, complete with strange artefacts that you would expect to find there. The lower value symbols run from 9 to Ace and pay the best wins when you land five of them on a payline.
The higher value symbols on Book of the Sphinx slot online are pieces of treasure or ancient findings including scarab beetles, statues of Anubis, clay tables, golden cobras and large ankhs. The main symbol is the Pharoah and landing five of these on the reels gives you a payout of 100x your stake, which is pretty impressive, but nothing less than we would expect from a Pharoah!
There are also some bonus symbols that will help you play Book of the Sphinx slot online. The wild is represented by the Book and will replace all other symbols with the exception of the scatter and also some of the other special icons that turn up in the extra features. The scatter, though, is represented by the Eye of Ra.
Book of the Sphinx Wild
The Eye of Ra feature activates when you land three or more on the reels. The triggering symbols are replaced by a symbol chosen at random (except the wild). These randomly selected icons will then expand to cover the entire reel they are on. This will give you some decent wins no matter where they had landed on the reels.
There is also a Free Spins bonus. This is activated when you land at least three of the Books on the reels. You will get different numbers of spins depending on whether you land 3, 4, or 5 - you will get 10, 15, or 30 spins respectively, plus 2, 20 or 200x your bet. During this feature, one of the symbols will be special during this round.
When you get at least three of these special symbols during a free spin, these will also expand and cover a full reel. These special symbols will only give you a payout when they have expanded. You can actually retrigger the bonus too by landing at least three more books on the reels, earning yourself a top prize of 250 free spins.

The Book of the Sphinx offers up some pretty exciting wins, if you are lucky. You want to land the Pharaoh as the special symbol, as you could end up with a screenful and 2500x your bet. The game is high variance, so budget players should watch their bankroll. That being said, we recommend going on an adventure to explore Book of the Sphinx
