Book of the Fallen
Pragmatic Play's turn at the book format: ten lines, one special symbol that expands across a whole reel, and ten free spins where a single lucky pick can stack up fast.
The book format, done by Pragmatic Play
Book of the Fallen is a high volatility pokie that follows a template Australian players know well. Five reels, three rows, ten paylines and one special symbol that works as both scatter and wild. Everything in the design points at the free spin round.
The setting is a crypt lit by candles. A hooded warrior, an owl, a sceptre and a ring sit above the usual card ranks, and the book itself is the symbol you are waiting for. Three of them anywhere on the grid starts the feature, with no line to complete.
Simplicity is the point. No cascading reels, no Megaways counter, no multiplier ladder to track. Ten lines, one special symbol, and a round that either expands generously or it does not.

Inside the ten free spins
How one symbol decides the whole round.
Three books trigger it
Land three special symbols anywhere on the reels and ten free spins are awarded. Position does not matter, so nothing needs to connect.
One symbol is chosen
Before the spins start, the game picks one of the standard symbols at random. That symbol is special for the rest of the round.
It expands and pays by position
When the chosen symbol lands it expands to fill its reel and pays wherever it sits, ignoring the usual left to right rule. Two or three full reels of the same symbol is where the round's big results come from.
Re-triggers extend it
Three more special symbols during the feature add another set of spins and keep the same chosen symbol in play.
Two things worth knowing before you start
The second is bankroll shape. Because the feature is the only place the serious money sits, the base game is there to get you to it. That is a trade you accept when you open a book pokie, and it is why stake size matters more here than on a game that pays steadily.
What a book pokie asks of you
Book games are famously streaky, and the reason is structural. Nearly all of the prize money sits in the free spins, and inside the feature a great deal rests on which symbol gets chosen. A top symbol expanding twice can pay hundreds of times the stake. A low card rank expanding three times often pays very little.
Plan for that spread. Set aside an amount you are genuinely happy to lose, divide it into at least two hundred spins, and hold the stake that produces. Chasing the feature with a bigger bet after a dry run is the quickest way to end a session early.
The paytable and the ceiling on a single round both live inside the game. Open the info panel from the menu, read the feature section once, and you will know what the round can and cannot do before any of your money is involved.
Play Book of the FallenDemo play, real money and mobile
Every pokie in our lobby opens in demo mode on play credits, and a book game is a good candidate for it, because a handful of demo features shows you quickly how much the chosen symbol matters. Nothing is staked and nothing can be cashed out.
Real money play needs an account, an AUD balance and an age of 18 or over. Registration is short, logging in afterwards is instant, and the one time identity check happens before your first payout rather than at sign up.
The game runs in a mobile browser with no download. Ten lines and a single expanding symbol read perfectly well on a phone, and the feature animation is short enough not to drag on a mobile connection. Our app page shows how to pin the lobby to your home screen.

Book of the Fallen questions
How many free spins does it award?
Ten on the standard trigger, with the chance of another set if three more special symbols land during the round.
What is the RTP of Book of the Fallen?
The figure is shown in the game's info panel. Pragmatic Play can publish more than one configuration, so the panel inside the game you have open is the number that applies to you.
Is there a maximum win?
The paytable states what a round can pay. We send you there instead of quoting a ceiling, because the figure belongs to the build you are playing.

Where the feature is offered, a button appears in the game window. If you cannot see it, it is not available on your account, and the feature still triggers in the normal way.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, straight in the browser with no app to install. The grid and the expanding symbol both scale to the screen.
Does it count toward wagering?
Yes, at 100% like our other pokies, with the A$7.50 bet cap in force while a bonus is live.
