Book of Shadows Demo & Review
Book of Shadows review
Book of Shadows is Nolimit City's take on the book format, with a twist: Shadow Rows let you pay extra to add rows and win lines. More rows mean more frequent wins and bigger payouts, at a higher cost per spin.
Three or more scatters, which are also wilds, award ten free spins with a golden expanding symbol, and you can redraw it if you don't like the first pick. There's a 50/50 gamble and a gamble-to-bonus option. Nolimit rates it High volatility, with a 30,338x ceiling, far above a typical book slot.
