John Hunter and the Book of the Fallen Slot by Pragmatic Play

Super Spin is the reason this one sticks out from the rest of the John Hunter series. For 10x your total bet per spin, you pick an expanding symbol that stays active every single base game spin - not just during free spins. Wins still calculate off the base bet (not the inflated 10x), so the premium buys you the mechanic, not a payout boost. It's essentially a permanent ante bet mode that turns the base game into something closer to the bonus round, minus the retrigger potential.

The book-of-style core is standard. Three Book symbols trigger 10 free spins. Before they start, you select one regular symbol to become the special expanding symbol for the round. Whenever enough of that symbol land for a win, it stretches to fill all three rows on its reel - and then pays on every reel where it appears, ignoring adjacency. So five scattered John Hunter symbols don't need to sit on a payline. They expand and pay across all positions, which is where the 500x-per-line top payout starts stacking. Retriggers are unlimited - three more Books during free spins add another 10 spins with your current expanding symbol still locked in. For 100x your bet, you skip straight to the bonus round with the same 10-spin package.

Golden columns and hieroglyphic walls frame the grid in warm torchlight. Symbols lean heavy on the Egyptian artifacts - an Anubis head, Eye of Horus, golden Pharaoh mask, and an ornate ankh sit above the styled card royals. John Hunter himself is the top-paying regular symbol at 500x for five on a line. The Book of the Fallen doubles as both wild and scatter, glowing gold whenever it substitutes or triggers.

The expanding symbol selection screen is where the real decision sits. John Hunter pays the most but appears less frequently on the reels. Lower-paying symbols hit more often and expand more regularly, producing smaller but steadier returns during the round. Pick wrong and those 10 spins dry up fast.
