Luke E. Chance and the Book of Luck Review

It’s really hard to count how many copycats the legendary Book of Ra has spawned, as up to this day we still keep witnessing more and more games being released based on the same winning formula. One such is Gaming Corps’ new Luke E. Chance and the Book of Luck slot, which is already the second ‘book’ installment in the studio’s portfolio. The first title was Book of Pirates, which enlivened the popular gameplay with the exciting respins mechanic, and the one under review also has several tricks of its own that bring an extra layer of entertainment.

On the outside, however, Book of Luck doesn’t really stick out from the crowd of ‘book’ games, as it utilizes the classic Egyptian theme. Still, we should give credit to the design team since the graphics and animations are of a top-notch level. Anyway, the game plays out across a standard 5x3 reel matrix, and players have 10 ways to play on each spin.

The reels are made up of 9 regular symbols that are divided into highs and lows. At the lower end of the paytable we see classic A-J royals, which pay from 10x to 15x the bet for five-of-a-kind. The higher section consists of three Egyptian gods, namely Bastet, Anubis, and Ra, as well as the brave explorer Luke E. Chance, who is the top star here. Matching 5 of the higher symbols awards from 75x to 500x the bet.

Playable on any device, the Luke E.

Chance and the Book of Luck slot comes with a betting range of £0.1 to £25 per spin, though, stakes up to £40 are possible with the Lucky Bet feature enabled, which doubles your chances of triggering the bonus but increases your bet by 1.6x in return. The volatility tends to the high side of the spectrum, and the maximum you can win here is 10,000x the stake. The default RTP is decent at 96.21%, which is above the average level, but you can also come across a 94.24% value depending on where you play. Additionally, using the bonus bet or buying the features via the Premium Spins menu affects the payback slightly.

As always, book symbols are the most desired out of all, as these are the key to winning big in the game. They act as both Wild and Scatter symbols at the same time, substituting for any of the regular symbols in winning combos as well as triggering the free games when 3+ lands simultaneously.

If 2 book symbols appear anywhere in view during the base game, the Lucky Chance Respin is awarded. The reels containing book symbols are held while all other reels spin again for a chance to award another book and activate the bonus.

When 3 or more appear, players receive 10 Free Spins.

Upon the start, a random regular symbol is chosen to become the special expanding symbol. Additionally, there’s a Second Chance feature included, allowing players to get a different special symbol. During the bonus game, special symbols expand to cover the reels entirely whenever a win is possible and award a win across all 10 paylines. More importantly is that they pay anywhere in view, meaning that they don’t necessarily have to land adjacently. Finally, landing another 3+ books awards a retrigger, up to a maximum of 100 free spins.

Players can activate the bonus immediately via the Bonuy Buy feature. At a cost of 91x the total bet, a spin with at least 3 book symbols is triggered.

Review Summary

To conclude, Luke E.

Chance and the Book of Luck is a decent slot, with beautifully-crafted visuals, fun gameplay, and well-balanced math. Will it surpass the iconic Book of Ra and Book of Dead games. Probably not, but a healthy dose of entertainment is guaranteed, so for players really into the genre, it’s certainly worth a spin or two.
