Here's my review below - cheers to everyone for the comp!
Legacy of Ramses Book - slot review
This slot is a clone of -
- Book of Magic by Novomatic
- Magic Mirror Deluxe II by Merkur
...therefore there's not much to comment on in terms of game design. Even the paytable is the same. I doubt the maths is though, and I felt this a bit when I played it - those retriggers feel difficult to get - and this is based on my own play and comments from people I know who have played it. On Rise of Merlin by Play 'n GO the awards are slightly reduced and I suspect this is to pay for the retriggers, or a better bonus hit rate. Games like Sword of Khans by Thunderkick and Book of Power by Relax Gaming offer slight variations in the number of Free Spins awarded in an attempt to try and show the player the 'hook' of the game as much as possible.
The thing that sets this game apart from others like it is the graphics, which are really fantastic. The Book landing animation is a nice touch and everything looks flawless, even the user interface. I did find
this a bit weird-looking though; the way the '9' floats in mid-air, but at least you notice it -
The comparitively low RTP of 94.10% is a bit off-putting when compared with the 95.61% the Magic Mirror Deluxe II gives you for example. Unless this slot is the only one of its kind when launched on a site (which let's face it, is very unlikely), you're always going to gravitate towards the others if you like to shop around for the best prices.
The sounds are pleasant enough and fit the theme of the slot. The Big Win bell-ring sounds a bit like a steam locomotive going through a level-crossing in Kansas however.
It's a good game, but it's been done many times before over the years.
FINAL SCORE - 3 lemons out of 5
