Can I play Legacy of Dead for free?

Yes. The demo at the top of this page runs on play money — no account, no deposit, and the free spins work exactly as they do for real.

How many lines are there?

Ten paylines on five reels and three rows. Wins pay from the leftmost reel, and the four picture symbols already pay for two in a row.

What does the Tomb do?

It's both Wild and Scatter. On a line it stands in for any symbol; three or more anywhere open the tomb and start the free spins.

How do the expanding symbols work?

Before the free spins a special symbol is chosen at random. When it lands on enough reels to pay, it grows to fill those reels and pays on all ten lines — even on reels that aren't next to each other.

Can I get more than one special symbol?

Yes. Three more Tombs during the free spins add extra spins and another special symbol, so several can expand at once.

What are the RTP, volatility and max win?

The standard RTP is 96.58%, volatility is very high and the top win is 5,000 times the bet — five Pharaohs expanding across the screen.

VII · Our verdict

The book's bolder heir

Legacy of Dead takes the classic expanding-symbol formula and lets it snowball. Every retrigger adds another special symbol, so a long free-spins round can turn reels gold several ways at once. The base game is plain and the volatility is very high — expect quiet stretches — but few ten-line slots reach 5,000× so cleanly.

The sacred scarab

A golden scarab has crawled out of the Tomb. It walks on six jointed legs, each foot finding the seam between two floor stones. Tap the floor to guide it, or start a relic hunt.

Scarab · 6 × 2-segment legsBest 000 · Steps 0000

Relic hunt

Tombs and pharaoh relics appear on the floor for a few seconds — tap one and the scarab scuttles over: Tombs score 3, relics 1. Cursed pits open between the stones and snatch a leg; a blue lotus grows it back. Lose three legs or run out of 60 seconds and the hunt is over.
