Book of Helios

Are you ready to join the renowned explorer Olivia Brave in her latest quest?

In Book of Helios by Betsoft, a Malta-based content provider you will get to explore an ancient temple – a place where the powerful book is believed to be hidden.

This online title features a common 5x3 board layout with 10 fixed paylines, as well as high-quality graphics and sound effects.

The temple also hides some special features that you will stumble upon – Wild Scatter Symbol, Free Spins with Expanding Symbols and Buy Feature!

Theme and Symbols

Upon loading this online release you will find yourself at the temple’s entrance, which is also where you will find your first threat – statues that just came alive!

In between the awakened statues is where you will find the board – a place where the real magic happens with each press of the spin button.

Stone card royals A-10 represent the symbols that award lower paying symbols, while whips, bows and arrows, Olivia Brave and Helios act as the higher-paying symbols.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Unfortunately, as we arrive at the betting options department things take a turn for the worse for this online products as despite there being quite a few of them available, they are mostly in the lower-end, which is not that common in online slots by Betsoft.

Newer and less experienced punters certainly won’t mind the lowest bet of only 0.20 credits, while high-rolling punters will have to do with a maximum bet of 20 credits, which is still a decent option to have.

However, things get a lot better when we take payout potential into account, even when rolling with lower stakes, thanks to the hefty maximum win that awards a payout of 20,168x your bet!

Special Features

• Wild Scatter Symbol – The Book itself not only acts as the Wild Symbol that substitutes for other symbols, at the same time, it is also the Scatter symbols that awards payouts regardless of its position on the board, while also triggering Free Spins should you land at least 3 of a kind!

• Free Spins with Expanding Symbols– Before your Free Spins feature starts, 1 of the paying symbols will be selected as the expanding symbol. If this symbol is visible on more than 2 or 3 reels, it will expand and cover the entire reel it is on. During the Free Spins, the Wild Scatter also comes with a multiplier of 1x to 5x!

• Buy Feature – This feature will let you instantly trigger the Free Spins feature at a cost of 65.5x your desired bet!

Verdict

Even though there have been quite a few exploration-themed online games, such as Age of Huracan for instance, Book of Helios by Betsoft has no issues holding its own.

Great graphics, lucrative payouts, fairly simple but effective bonus features make it little to nothing more to wish out of it, except for maybe betting options in the higher end.
