Book Of Cats Demo & Review
Book Of Cats review
Book of Cats is BGaming's book slot dedicated to Bastet, the Egyptian cat goddess. It uses 5x3 reels with 10 paylines, and the Golden Book serves as both wild and scatter.
A twist on the usual format: during the base game, one symbol is selected at random and displayed in a sixth cell, so you know in advance which symbol will expand once the bonus starts. Three or more scatters award 10 free spins in which that symbol expands to fill its reel, and more scatters during the round add spins. An optional card gamble and a bonus buy are also available. BGaming rates it very high volatility with an 8,202x maximum. The 96.99% RTP is excellent, and free spins land around once every 140 spins on average.

Book Of Cats RTP, volatility and max win
RTP: the default return to player is 96.99%, meaning that over a very large number of spins the game is designed to pay back around 97.0 units for every 100 wagered. Some casinos may run a lower configuration; the info screen inside the game shows the exact figure. How RTP works.
Volatility: Book Of Cats is a very high volatility slot. Most sessions will be dominated by small wins and dead spins, with the bulk of its return concentrated in rare bonus rounds. A short session can easily lose its whole budget without a meaningful hit – the demo is the safest way to see how swingy it really is. Volatility explained.
Max win: the maximum payout is 8,202x the stake. What max win really means.
