A new slot game unveiled by Play’n GO invites online casino players on a journey to uncover the secrets of Queen Nitocris’ tomb in Banquet of Dead.

Play’n GO released its new slot game on Thursday. Banquet of Dead joins the company’s Dead Series of online games.

Dead Series

The Dead Series from Play’n GO is a treasure trove of iconic titles in the iGaming industry. The collection of different Ancient Egypt Slots brings players into the world of treasure hunting and is packed with features like Special Expanding Symbols, Expanding Wilds, and Free Spins.

Popular slot games like “Rich Wilde and Book of Dead” and “Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead” also fall under the Dead Series of online slots. These titles are available in the United States, Banquet of Dead will join the market soon.

Banquet of Dead

Banquet of Dead has a 5×3 screen that leads players to the dusty, cavernous tomb of Queen Nitocris in Ancient Egypt. As players venture deeper into the tomb, they’ll encounter the Banquet of Queen Nitocris, rife with dangerous obstacles and tasty traps.

During the game’s Free Spins feature, seven spins are gifted automatically. Obtaining three or more Scatters will re-trigger free spins for up to 25 rounds for bigger wins.

The game boasts two newly revised iconic features that tie to the long dynasty of Dead titles:

  • Expanding Symbols: Expanding Symbols can cover all three positions on the reels and create powerful winning combinations.
  • Symbol Removal: The Symbol Removal feature removes the lowest-valued symbol from the reels every time the feature is activated.

Don’t let the dead theme scare you, the slot series has taken on a “life” of its own, Play’n GO Games Ambassador Magnus Wallentin explains.

“The Dead series has become an icon that’s taken on a life of its own, and we’re proud to continue its storyline,” Wallentin said in a company press release. “The game features Expanding Symbols, a Gamble Round, and Symbol Removal with a new dynamic twist that we think fans will adore.”

“Players can prepare themselves for an unforgettable slot experience in Banquet of Dead. This slot game boasts 10 dynamic paylines and stunning visual effects that will leave players craving more.”

In the meantime, you can play other Dead Series slots and follow along with Rich and Cat Wilde on their adventures with the Book of Dead.

Rich Wilde and Book of Dead

Released in 2016, this video slot joins Rich Wilde on his most famous escapade in Book of Dead.

Having traveled to discover the Pearls of India and his encounter with the Aztec Idols, Rich Wilde journeys to the sands of Ancient Egypt. At the root of modern-day civilization, there are legends of treasures that lie within the secrets of worlds between life and death uncovered by the Ancient Egyptians and noted in The Book of Dead.

Landing three scatter symbols in the game will unlock ten free spins. Landing a further three or more scatter symbols during the free spins will re-trigger free spins where an additional 10 spins are awarded.

The game has a minimum bet of $0.10 and goes up to a maximum of $50.00.

Rich Wilde and Book of Dead can be found at BetMGM Online Casino and PokerStars Online Casino.

Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead

Known as the next chapter in the Book of Dead series, Cat Wilde, daughter of Rich Wilde, set out on an adventure of her own in 2022 titled “Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead.”

This game has three features that are triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols:

  • Jackpot: The Jackpot feature is a pick-and-click game of 12 urns displayed in front of the player. The jackpot value is hidden beneath the lid of each urn. Each urn contains one of the four possible jackpot values presented in the form of spirits. Once tapped, an urn opens and reveals the spirit contained within. The spirit flies to the Jackpot counters on top of the screen and fills up the meter below the respective label. Once three identical spirits have been found, and one of the Jackpot meters on top of the screen is filled, the Jackpot Round is over, and the player has won the value awarded.
  • Instant Prize: The Instant Prize features are as follows, 5x, 10x, 20x, or 100x players total bet.
  • Free Spins: Landing three scatters in the Base Game awards eight free spins. Four scatters awards 10 free spins. Five scatters award 15 free spins.

The game has a minimum bet of $0.10 and a maximum of $100.00.
