a magic book (the Grimoire) serves as a mystery symbol

A Chilling Introduction

When the game loads, players see the inside of a sorcerer’s chamber. The setting is nighttime and the chamber’s only light source are candles. Players will see a window with moonlight shining through it. Along the walls of the chamber appear floating objects and hieroglyphics. Throughout the intro video, a classical soundtrack can be heard.

Eerie Symbols

Symbols seen on the reels include various coloured gems. Each gem is in the possession of a creature. Players will see a spider, snake, kraken and a scarab. Adding to the game’s intrigue, a magic book (the Grimoire) serves as a mystery symbol. On the magic book’s cover is a question mark. There is also a golden skull that serves as the wild symbol in the game. However, it only makes an appearance when the mystery symbol is revealed. A valuable golden key serves as the game’s scatter symbol.

Magical Bonuses

Three of the golden keys on the reels at once start the free bonus round. Players then get eight spins of the reels for free. The only downside is that free spins can’t be re-triggered. However, during the free spins round the magic symbols come into play. The transformation of symbols can lead to huge winnings.

The mystery book can be seen on four of the five reels during the bonus. In regular gameplay, it is only ever on three of the five reels. While free spins are being played, the magic book becomes a sticky wild. They remain on the reels until all free spins are complete. If there are other mystery symbols on the reels they remain locked in place as well.

While the magic symbols are powerful so are the wild symbols. The magic symbols on the second, third and fourth reels power up the wilds. When this happens every symbol on the reels becomes a wild or another symbol. If the new symbol is the same as the first reel’s symbol the entire row will match. In the case of a new wild symbol, every symbol on the first and second reels will become the wild.

Golden Grimoire – Final Thoughts

Many players fascinate with magic. This game was designed to appeal to those players the most. As a universal theme, magic is a subject players of all ages will enjoy.

NetEnt has an excellent reputation for creating slots with incredible bonuses. Golden Grimoire has proven to be one of them. The added element of the mystery symbol makes this game uniquely entertaining. Its soundtrack and graphics work together perfectly to create a dark but compelling game.

Players that enjoy mystery-themed games have choices similar to this one. They include Book of Dead and Book of Ra Deluxe. Both of these games feature a magic book that offers chilling fun.
