The Lost Book of Mummy's Curse Slot (Mini Review)
The Lost Book of Mummy's Curse is a 5x3 slot from Hacksaw Gaming partner Trusty Gaming using 10 paylines and offering a maximum win of 3,000x the bet. It follows a classic book-style format with a 96.28% RTP and stakes ranging from $/€0.10 up to $/€300.
Wins are formed by landing matching symbols from left to right, with some lower-paying symbols requiring only two matches. The main mechanic is the expanding symbol feature. On each base game spin, a random symbol is selected, and if it forms part of a win, it expands to cover the entire reel, increasing the payout potential.
Free spins are triggered by landing three or more scatters, awarding 12 spins. During the feature, one symbol is chosen at the start and remains the expanding symbol for the entire round. These symbols can pay even when not fully connected in the usual way, allowing multiple wins to stack more easily. Additional spins can be added by landing more scatters during the feature. A bonus buy option is available at 100x the bet for direct access to free spins.
While everything works as expected, this is a very familiar setup that doesn't try to do anything new. The expanding symbol mechanic has been used countless times before, and the 3,000x max win feels limited by today's standards. Even with a solid presentation, it comes across as a safe and predictable release that doesn't offer much beyond what players have already seen many times.
