Book of Thieves Slot Review

Book of Thieves Game Overview

Book of Thieves is a five reel, three row, ten line book style slot from Blue Guru Games, set in a gloomy mediaeval village where thieves prowl the streets at night. Stakes start from about 0.10 a spin and go up to 200 in some versions, while UK focused builds run from 0.20 to 5. The maths sits in the medium to high bracket, so I treat it as a swingy, bonus driven game.

Most documentation lists an RTP around 96 percent, usually 96.08 or 96.21, although some regulated markets use a trimmed 93.95 setup. Max win lands around 4786x the bet in tests, with some marketing material quoting 5250x, so I file it under solid rather than insane. Slammer Studios has since decommissioned the title, so access now depends on whether your casino still carries older Blue Guru content.

Book Of Thieves Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

The theme in Book of Thieves leans into that ghastly medieval village vibe mentioned in several write ups, with crooked timber houses, lanterns and a sense that something dodgy is about to happen. Spins play out against moody skies and warm light from open doors, which works well for late night sessions. Audio supports the atmosphere without getting in the way, so I never felt the need to mute it during longer runs.

On the paytable, the lower paying symbols are bronze coin, silver coin, gold coin, dagger and goblet, paying roughly 5x to 15x the bet for a full line of five. Premiums are four characters, headed by the lady of the house, worth 250x for five of a kind. The three thieves follow at 200x, 100x and 50x, so character lines still feel meaningful even after the value trims used to balance the features.

Book of Thieves runs with a dedicated wild that shares the top symbol value and substitutes for regular icons, and a separate book symbol that acts as scatter for the bonus. Lines pay from the leftmost reel, usually needing three or more matching symbols. With ten fixed paylines and flexible stakes across different builds, I found it easy to size bets to my bankroll without feeling forced into awkward jumps.

Base Game & Modifiers in Book of Thieves

Base game play sticks to the classic five by three, ten fixed pay line layout, with wins awarded for three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the left. The twist is the special reel above the middle, shown as a box on the roof. When a symbol lands there, it becomes the expanding symbol for that spin, fills its reels if a win is present, and then pays on all lines as if it were a scatter.

Book Of Thieves Slot Bonus Features

Free spins in Book of Thieves trigger when three or more book scatters hit anywhere on the reels, giving 10 spins to start with and another 10 if you retrigger during the feature. At the beginning of each free spin, one to three symbols are picked as special expanding symbols. They expand one after another if enough are present to form a win, and pay on all lines from any position, which is where the slot can stretch its legs.

If the bonus buy is active in your region, you can pay 70x your current stake to jump straight into the free spins. That version runs on a theoretical return around 96.08 percent, the same as long term base play. In my sessions, the buy felt swingy but fair, with many rounds hovering around 50x to 150x, and the odd setup with three premium expanders threatening to go into serious payout territory.

Book Of Thieves Slot Review Final Thoughts

Stepping back after a fair few sessions, Book of Thieves lands as a solid take on the book formula rather than a total reinvention. I like the way expanding symbols appear in both base game and bonus, which keeps even dead looking spins alive. The trimmed symbol values and mid range max win stop it hitting truly epic heights, yet the crime soaked mood keeps drawing me in for another heist.
