Book of Charms slot
Book of Charms is a Realistic Games slot released on 28 July 2022, with 5 reels and 10 paylines set between Egyptian sands and a fantasy realm. It has two free spins rounds rather than one, Book Free Spins with an expanding symbol and Pink Orb Free Spins with a 3x multiplier, and each can trigger the other, so one round can lead straight into the second.

How Book of Charms plays
Realistic Games pairs two settings on the same reels: Egyptian sands on one side and a fantasy realm on the other. Line wins pay on 10 lines, and the ladybird and the ace are the two symbols whose five-of-a-kind pays are listed in the table above.
Two different scatters share the reels, books and pink orbs. Three or more of either kind start that scatter’s own free spins round, and neither round shuts the other out: books can still start their feature while the orb round is running, and orbs can do the same in the book round. That link between the two features is what the game is built around.
Book Free Spins
Three or more Book scatters start 10 free spins. Before the first of them, one symbol is picked at random to be the expanding symbol for the round, and whenever it lands it can grow to cover its whole reel. The round can be retriggered. It also holds the game’s largest single award of spins: if the Pink Orb scatter is the symbol picked to expand and three or more of them land, it can lead to up to 165 free spins in the Pink Orb round.
Pink Orb Free Spins
Three or more Pink Orb scatters anywhere start 15 free spins, and every win in the round is boosted by a 3x multiplier. More pink orbs during the round retrigger it. The round can also start Book Free Spins, and when that happens the multiplier travels with it, so the expanding-symbol spins are played with the 3x boost in place. As a worked example, a line win of £1 in Book Free Spins started this way would pay £3.
Book of Charms compared with Book of Dead
Book of Dead, the 2016 game from Play’n GO, gives three scatters 10 free spins in which one randomly chosen symbol expands to fill its reel. Book of Charms has a round built on that same idea and then sets a second one beside it. Its Pink Orb round replaces the expanding symbol with a 3x multiplier, and either round can lead into the other, which turns one bonus into a possible run of two.
| Game | Released | Free spins rounds |
|---|---|---|
| Book of Charms | 2022 | Two: Book Free Spins (expanding symbol) and Pink Orb Free Spins (3x multiplier) |
| Book of Dead | 2016 | One: 10 free spins with a randomly chosen expanding symbol |

Frequently asked questions
What is the Book of Charms slot?
A 10-line slot from Realistic Games, released in July 2022 and rated high volatility by the studio, that pairs a book feature with a second bonus. Its reels move between Egyptian sands and a fantasy realm. The two free spins rounds, one with an expanding symbol and one with a multiplier, can each set off the other.
Is there a Christmas version of Book of Charms?
Yes. Realistic Games followed the original with Book of Charms Christmas Edition, which keeps two bonus features, one with free spins and a multiplier and one built on an expanding symbol, under a festive design. It is a separate game with its own settings, so the figures in this guide apply to the original only.
Which symbol expands in Book of Charms?
There is no fixed answer. One symbol is picked at random when Book Free Spins begins, and that symbol expands for the round. The pink orb is one possible pick, and it is the one that ties the two features together, since three or more of them landing as the expanding symbol can lead to up to 165 free spins in the Pink Orb round.
