Detailed Explanation
In Book of Dead, the choice of expanding symbol does not directly affect retrigger probabilities, as retriggers depend solely on landing three or more Book scatter symbols during free spins, regardless of the expanding symbol selected.
The free spins feature activates with three or more Books, awarding 10 free spins and randomly choosing one symbol (excluding the Book) to expand across entire reels for massive wins. High-value symbols like Rich Wilde (up to 5,000x your bet) or Pharaoh (2,000x) deliver the biggest payouts when they expand on multiple reels, but low-payers like 10 or A offer smaller rewards. Retriggers always grant another 10 spins with the same expanding symbol, allowing prolonged play and higher win potential—unlimited retriggers are possible if Books keep landing.
Practical tip: High-volatility means bonuses can be dry, but landing premium expanding symbols boosts payout quality during extended spins from retriggers. Bet 1-10 coins per line to manage bankroll, aiming for 100+ spins per session to trigger the feature (RTP 96.21%). Avoid chasing low-symbol bonuses; premium ones turn retriggers into 5,000x+ jackpots.
- Track sessions: More retriggers (2-3+) with premiums often yield 1,000x+ wins.
- Gamble wisely: Use the double-or-nothing feature post-win, but set limits.
- Play max lines (10) for full expanding coverage.
