Book of Sam

Trolls, Vegas and a bit of ancient Egypt combined together is an unlikely mix that delivers memorable gameplay action in this slot. The Book of Sam is the latest retelling of ELK Studios' troll family range of titles, and here we see Sam and Sandra take their daughter Maggie along on a trip to Las Vegas.

There's a twist, though, as the reels and symbols feature Egyptian-inspired detailing. Feature-wise, this five-reel slot brings Electric Treats, a series of three modifiers inspired by the main characters. Thanks to expanding symbols, players stand a chance of winning up to 10,000x their stake.

This special bonus feature can become active at any point in the game. It is triggered when any troll symbol creates a win of any kind. Here's what each treat offers:

Sam – Receive a respin with a book symbol that serves as the Wild and scatter.
Sandra – Receive a respin along with a multiplier to boost total wins.
Maggie – This removes all the low-value symbols, allowing new ones to drop.

Electric Treats modifiers will land when one of the family members creates a win. They are available in the base game as well as the bonus round.

This bonus feature is only possible when players land at least three book symbols. The game awards eight free spins with up to three expanding symbols. Note that a random character is chosen as the expanding symbol, and they can trigger full payline wins.

In the Book of Sam slot, the book symbol serves as the Wild and scatter. It triggers the bonus round but can also substitute for other characters to enable a win. The Wild also offers instant credits. It pays as much as the Sam symbol when the winning combination contains just Wilds.

This high-variance video slot from ELK Studios was released in January 2023 and quickly became one of the most popular games from this software provider. This is an impressive feat, considering that ELK is one of the top gaming studios in the industry. The slot graphics are nicely done with a mix of still and animated images.

The game intro displays Polaroid pictures of the family having fun in Las Vegas before ushering players into the main screen. The reels are the standard 5x3 video slot setup and depict ancient Egyptian detailing, while the backdrop and high-tempo soundtrack are Vegas all the way.

Book of Sam is the third instalment in this developer's troll series. Their flagship slot Electric Sam sports a fruit machine theme with neon graphics and a unique range of Electric Treats. The second instalment, Sam on the Beach, takes the adventure to the Caribbean. It delivers a different feel but is just as action packed.

Outside of the series, you can get a similar experience in Vegas Diamonds. This is a Vegas-inspired slot with a classic nod, and it's got some rewarding features like the locked twin reel respin and fortune wheels.

Book of Sam is one of the many 'Book of' slots, a style made famous by none other than Book of Dead. This Play 'n Go classic is one of the most popular slots ever made, and it comes with bonuses such as expanding symbols, free spins and a max win of 5,000x your stake.

In the Book of Sam slot, the premium symbols pay for at least two on a payline. The low payers, on the other hand, require at least three matching symbols for a win.

Clicking the spin button sets the reels in motion. Before you do so, you must select your stake using the coin stack symbol that leads to the bet page. Book of Sam allows you to adjust your bet between £0.20 and £100.00.
