Ed Jones & Book of Bastet Deluxe

Ed Jones and Book of Bastet Deluxe Overview

Ed Jones and Book of Bastet Deluxe is a book-style slot from Spinmatic, released on 9 March 2023. It plays on 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 lines. SlotCatalog lists an RTP of 94.78%, high volatility and stakes from 0.10 to 40; it does not publish a maximum win.

The Paytable

We checked the paytable at a €40 bet (€4 per line):

• Ed Jones, the explorer in the hat – 5 pay €20,000 (500x the bet), 4 pay €4,000, 3 pay €400 and 2 pay €40.
• Bastet – 5 pay €8,000 (200x).
• Anubis and the falcon god – 5 pay €3,000 (75x).
• A and K – 5 pay €600 (15x); J, Q and 10 – 5 pay €400 (10x).

The Book: Wild and Scatter

The book is the Wild Scatter: it substitutes on the lines and also pays on its own – 5 books €8,000, 4 books €800 and 3 books €80 at the €40 bet. SlotCatalog lists the Book mechanic, expanding symbols, free spins and additional free spins.

Free Spins with an Expanding Symbol

One of our screenshots shows the book opening in blue flames to reveal the A as the special symbol for the round; the win meter read €260. In book games of this kind the chosen symbol expands over the reels during the free spins.

Reading the Paytable

The gap between the symbols is wide. Five Ed Jones symbols pay 2.5 times as much as five Bastets and more than six times as much as five Anubis or falcon symbols, while the royals top out at 15x. Ed Jones and the three god symbols also pay for just two on a line – two Ed Jones return the full bet – whereas the royals need at least three. This shape, with most of the value concentrated in one premium symbol, fits the high volatility rating.

Theme and Presentation

Two black cat statues of Bastet flank the reels, their eyes and collars glowing gold in the base game and blue while the special symbol is chosen. The symbols sit on dark panels in a sandstone temple, and the premium portraits are painted in rich colour.

Our Base-Game Win

A line of 10s across the middle row paid €20 at the €40 bet – 0.5x the stake.
