Dawn of Kings

Inside the game

Captured in the studio's own free demo on 11 September 2026. Nothing below is taken from a press release or another site — it is what the game shows when you open it.

The base gameThe base game: five reels, three rows, framed by the gateway of an Egyptian temple. Bottom left, the BUY BONUS button opens the feature purchase; on the right, the demo bet sits at €2.00 against a play balance of €5,000.00.
FeaturesABOUT THE GAME, the panel's opening section: the game describes itself as a 5-reel, 3-row payline slot built on the classic Book mechanic, and states a maximum win of 10,000 times the bet, achievable in every game mode. Below, FEATURES covers the Book symbol, both Wild and scatter: 3, 4 or 5 Books trigger BOOK OF DAWN or TRIPLE BOOK OF DAWN, and five of them add a 1000x cash prize.
Game rules, page 2BOOK MECHANIC IN THE BASE GAME: during the main game the mechanic can fire at random — a symbol is drawn as the Special symbol, 3 to 5 copies land on the spin, then expand to cover their reels and pay anywhere, even with other symbols between them. Just below, BOOK OF DAWN BONUS: three Book scatters in the base game open 10 free spins.
Game rules, page 3The feature continued, with an illustration: the chosen symbol switches from a blue frame to a golden one. The panel spells out the spins added mid-bonus — 2 Book scatters award 2 extra spins, 3 award 4, and 4 scatters upgrade the round to TRIPLE BOOK OF DAWN with 4 extra spins. That mode, detailed lower down, starts at 12 free spins and draws three Special symbols, at least one of them a high-paying one.
Game rules, page 4The two Best of Bonus variants, each with its own scroll. BEST OF BOOK OF DAWN plays out three full bonuses in a row and records each result on a scoreboard beside the grid; after the third, only the highest value is paid. BEST OF TRIPLE BOOK OF DAWN applies the same rule to three Triple bonuses.
Game rules, page 5SYMBOL PAYOUTS, the paytable read at the current bet. Card symbols run from €0.40 up to €10.00 for five 10s and €20.00 for five As. The picture symbols climb far higher: €150.00 for five scarabs or five Bastets, €400.00 for five Anubis or five pharaohs, and €2,000.00 for five of the explorer, the best-paying symbol on the grid.
Ways to winWAYS TO WIN: combinations form left to right from the leftmost reel, and the panel states that the game has 13 possible lines, each drawn out below. The BONUS BUY section that follows lists the purchases available from the BUY BONUS button and their respective buy return: 96.38% for BONUSHUNT FeatureSpins™, 96.28% for SILVER FeatureSpins™, 96.38% for GOLDEN FeatureSpins™ and 96.25% for the BOOK OF DAWN BONUS.
GeneralThe end of the purchase list — 96.35% buy return for the BEST OF BOOK OF DAWN BONUS, 96.32% for the BEST OF TRIPLE BOOK OF DAWN BONUS — followed by the GENERAL section covering the balance display and the bet controls. The game sets its bet levels between €0.10 and €100.00, noting that feature buys may exceed that ceiling.
Max winMAX WIN, the section where the game states its own ceiling: 10,000 times the bet, after which the round ends immediately and any remaining free spins are discarded. Then FREE SPINS, explaining the running total shown in the TOTAL WIN field, followed by AUTOPLAY and its advanced settings — number of rounds, session loss limit, single win limit.
Game rules, page 9The end of the panel, given over to handling. KEYBINDS lists the keyboard shortcuts, including SHIFT + B or F to open the Bonus buy and FeatureSpins™ menu, SHIFT + 1 to 4 to jump straight to a purchase confirmation page, and SHIFT + P for the paytable. Then ADDITIONAL INFORMATION on the bottom bar, HISTORY — only completed rounds appear there — and the general terms.
