On September 27, 2023, GreenTube, an Austrian online casino content provider, announced the release of Book of Ra Win Ways. The addition of the Win Ways mechanic to this iconic title will be good news for online slots players.
Like the hugely popular Megaways mechanic from Big Time Gaming, GreenTube's Win Ways engine gives slot players at the best mobile casinos a chance to form thousands of winning ways. Obviously, this comes with an increased number of reels and symbols.
Book of Ra Win Ways is played on six reels with a maximum of 117,649 pay lines. Players will see an additional reel above the main game reels. This reel eliminates all symbols that are part of a winning combination as new symbols replace them. This continues until there's no winning combination on the reels.
This game can also reward gamers with 10 bonus spins after landing at least three bonus scatter symbols on the reels. But that's not all. Each time a player lands a scatter during the free spins bonus, they will receive five extra spins.
Meanwhile, any symbol can be randomly chosen during the Free Games feature to be the expanding symbol. Note that this expanding symbol can cover the entire reel, including the extra reel above the main gaming area.
Remember that the scatter symbols of the Free Games feature can land on the top-most reel. If this happens, players receive five extra spins for three of them and 10 spins for four.
Steve Cross, Director of Games Development and Operations at GreenTube (Novomatic Interactive), commented: "The demand for our esteemed Book of Ra franchise remains unquenchable. It was only natural, therefore, for us to incorporate Book of Ra with the highly sought-after Win Ways mechanic. The team did a great job on this title and we can't wait for players to get their hands on it."
