- A vampire-themed book of slot with some unique features
- Collect symbols and earn extra respins
- Only one expanding symbol possible and a fairly low RTP
Book of Blood slot is yet another in the book of series, something almost all developers seem to be trying to get in on lately. I have no problem with it as a lot of them are great, but not all and with so many out there it’s getting harder to make one that’s original and competitive. Let’s take a closer look and see what’s on offer here to help it stand out.
The design is certainly different, with a vampire theme compared to the more common Ancient Egypt theme which is nice. There are 5 reels and 3 rows giving you 10 pay lines. All you need is a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols that are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- 10, Jack or Queen
- King or Ace
- Bat or Coffin
- Goblet
- Vampire

Book Of Blood Slot Bonuses and Features
Free Spins Bonus. In order to trigger this, you’ll need to land 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. These scatter symbols are also wild symbols, substituting for all of the above symbols in a winning combination. When the bonus starts, you’ll be shown a symbol that will act as the expanding symbol throughout the bonus. Additionally, you can land 3 or more scatters during the bonus to get 10 more free spins, but with the same expanding symbol as before. When playing, the expanding symbols are collected above each reel they land on. A respin is awarded on the 6th reel and this continues until all symbols are collected or no expanding symbols appear on the 6th reel. Then, the reels with the expanding symbol will expand them, if it will create a win. Payouts are made with these even on non-adjacent reels.
Bonus Buy. Outside of the U.K., you can pay to trigger the bonus immediately for a price of 80x your stake.
Conclusion
Book of Blood slot from NetGaming is another book of slot, this time with a slightly different mechanic. Rather than just expanding whenever they appear, the expanding symbols are collected and respins are awarded until eventually the symbols expand if they can pay out, even if they’re not next to each other. What’s disappointing is that if you retrigger the bonus the expanding symbol remains the same. Many other book of slots give you a new symbol as well as the old one, making it much more valuable. I think that would have been a really nice addition here combined with the respin feature, setting it apart from the many competitors in the book of series. Instead, I have to say I think it’s not one of the best, especially with the lower than average RTP of 95.58%. A few base game features might also have been a nice touch.
