Gameplay and Theme
Book of Oz is an enchanting fiat and Bitcoin slots game filled with fantasy and adventure. Its source material is the 1939 American musical fantasy film The Wizard of Oz, so the game is set within the fictional world of Emerald City. As a sequel, Book of Oz: Lock ‘N’ Spin is the version 2.0 of its successor
The game has 5 reels, 10 fixed paylines, high volatility, and a 96.39% RTP. It’s available on any device from 10p to £25 per spin. There are no significant changes in the layout of the game as Microgaming focused on its bonus features. The original symbols are still present on Book of Oz: Lock ‘N’ Spin: wizards, potions, keys, the Book of Oz, and the A, K, Q, and J card suits.
The Book of Oz functions as the wild and the highest-paying symbol. It can replace all regular symbols except the scatter. The wizards have their corresponding payouts—with 5,000x multiplier as the highest reward.
