Legacy of Dead is a slot game created by casino software developers: Play’n GO. The game seems to mix elements from two other slots from this publisher, namely Book of Dead and Legacy of Egypt. Indeed, just from the title, you can see the influence of these two games.
In terms of the atmosphere and symbols it is also in the same vein as Book of Dead and Legacy of Egypt. Legacy of Dead is a highly volatile slot where players will have the chance to hit incredible payouts: up to 5000 times the bet!
We have tried this slot to evaluate it according to some criteria that you will find in this review, such as the game’s graphics, its gameplay, all the important technical details, the types of bonuses you can enjoy and finally the quality of the mobile version.
The Game
Legacy of Dead: How good is it?
In Legacy of Dead, we find the same aesthetics and design style as in the other two slot games that serve as its basis. If you are already familiar with these two games, you will find the same symbols and a very similar atmosphere.
As always with Play’n Go games, the quality of the artwork is impeccable. There is a mix of realism and attention to detail with a touch of fantasy. The reels are located in a kind of ancient temple that probably belonged to the pharaoh that you can see among the symbols of the game.
The game itself is arranged in such a way that the gameplay is intuitive and fluid. In fact, all the symbols needed for the game to run smoothly are grouped just below the reels.
From left to right you have the button that opens the game rules window, with the amount of your balance displayed right next to it. Then you have the buttons to set the coin value, the number of coins in play on each spin, the number of active paylines, your bet height, and finally the spin and autospin buttons.
Legacy of Dead is a slot that offers dynamic gameplay thanks to the high volatility and bonuses that work based on the scatter symbol, which also acts as a wild. You will enjoy free spins galore and the possibility to re-trigger them immediately if you are lucky. With the help of expanding symbols, you can quickly increase your chances of hitting the jackpot.

Mechanics
How does the game work?
The bonus features in Legacy of Dead are mainly related to the special symbol that acts as both a wild and a scatter. There is also a gamble feature (a bit of a double or nothing feature) like in many slots created by these casino software developers, which we will also explain. But first, we will describe the bonus features related to the special symbol.
This symbol acts primarily as a wild, which means that it can replace any other symbol in the game to help you complete winning combinations.
To trigger the free spins, you need at least 3 special symbols that appear on the reels at the same time. You will then enjoy 8 free spins. At this point, a symbol (but not the scatter) will be randomly selected to become an expanding symbol.
Your winnings will immediately increase thanks to this feature! Plus, these symbols don’t have to be adjacent to each other to bring you coins. If you’re really lucky, these expanding symbols can fall on all the reels to cover the entire game.
If 3 scatter symbols fall during these free spins, you will be awarded an additional 8 free spins. Another symbol will be randomly chosen to become expansive, giving you an extra expansive symbol and therefore even more chances to get interesting wins.
Finally, the gamble feature is available at any time if you want to try your luck at quadrupling your potential wins. With each win you hit, you have the option to gamble it away with two options: double the winnings by correctly guessing the suit of a hidden playing card, or quadruple them by correctly guessing the symbol of that same hidden card (hearts, spades, diamonds or clubs). You can use the gamble feature 5 times in a row.
