Legacy of Dead

Legacy of Dead by Play’n GO is an Egyptian “book” slot in the mould of Book of Dead, featuring free spins with a special expanding symbol that can fill the reels for big wins. Clean and high-variance, it is a popular entry in Play’n GO’s long-running Egyptian series.

This review explains how Legacy of Dead works, the expanding-symbol free spins, the RTP, and how to play it.

What is Legacy of Dead?

Legacy of Dead is a 5-reel, 10-payline slot where the book acts as both wild and scatter. Three or more books trigger 10 free spins and select a random special expanding symbol. During the free spins, if that symbol appears it expands to cover full reels and pays across positions — the route to the biggest wins.

It follows the proven “book” formula closely, with a clean presentation and a gamble feature for the bold.

How to play Legacy of Dead

1. Set your stake across the 10 paylines.
2. Spin the reels, with the book as wild and scatter.
3. Land three or more books to trigger 10 free spins.
4. A random special expanding symbol is selected.
5. That symbol expands across reels in free spins for big wins.

Legacy of Dead RTP, volatility and max win

Legacy of Dead has a published RTP of around 96.58% in its standard version (alternative versions exist — check the in-game figure) and high volatility.

The maximum win is up to 5,000x your stake, achieved when the expanding symbol fills the reels during free spins. Expect dry spells typical of a high-variance book slot.

Expanding symbol free spins

The randomly selected expanding symbol in the free spins, which spreads across reels and pays across positions, is the engine of the game’s biggest wins. An optional gamble feature can double wins on a card guess.
