Slotfather: Book of Wins - Hold and Win Slot Review

We’re all obsessed with the classic American Italian gangster. Movies like The Godfather 📽️ and shows like The Sopranos 📺 continue to stoke the fantasy of a life in organized crime, but the reality is that it ain’t so glamorous.

Riding shotgun in a big stretched-out Cadillac 🚗, strapped with a Tommygun 🔫, is not how real gangsters go about business anymore.

In reality, these guys are dabbling in the pharmaceutical industry 💊, buying derivatives on the stock exchange 📈, and organizing garbage truck routes 🚛.

Even in Japan, the infamous Yakuza have dropped tattoos for suits 👔. It’s all very corporate these days. If you want a taste of the old-school days, give Slotfather: Book of Wins by Betsoft Gaming a go. 🎰

Gameplay

Slotfather: Book of Wins features a 3x5-reel grid set against a real old-school backdrop featuring a classic car, and an imposing gangster-type. The soundtrack is just as swanky as the rest of the game.

The high-paying symbols are Gangsters of varying description.

Land 6 Bonus symbols (Coins) and you’ll trigger the Hold & Win feature, or land at least 3 Scatter symbols (a Book) to trigger a Free Spins round. Scatters also act as Wilds.

Slotfather: Book of Wins has an RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate.
of 96.6%
and 10 paylines. The max multiplier is 17,226.5x and the max win is $344,530. This game has a very high volatility rate, and you can’t play with yen.

Features

HOLD & WIN:

Six or more Coin symbols trigger the Hold & Win feature. The coins will show a value of up to 400x your bet.

The Coin symbols that trigger the feature become sticky, and you receive 3 repsins. Every time a new Coin symbol lands, the spins are reset to 3. The feature comes to an end when you run out of spins, or when all 15 slots are filled. You then get paid out.

FREE SPINS:

Land 3, 4, or 5 Scatters to receive 10, 15, or 20 Free Spins respectively. Scatter symbols that land will reveal a random symbol that will cover the entire reel it sits on. Landing 2, 3, 4, or 5 Scatters during Free Spins will retrigger the feature with 3, 10, 13, or 15 Free Spins respectively.

BONUS BUY:

You can purchase a Free Spins round with 10 Free Spins for 126x your bet, or go for a Hold & Win round for 120x your bet.

Performance

These gangsters will happily play on your mobile phone, or on any popular browser.

Maximum Win

With a betting range of $0.20 to $20, and a maximum multiplier of 17,226.5x, you can expect a massive max win of $344,530.

Conclusion

The Slotfather: Book of Wins – Hold & Win plunges you into the thrilling world of organized crime, packed with exciting features and big win potential.

Fans of Hold & Win mechanics and the allure of Free Spins will find plenty to enjoy in this slot, offering every player a taste of underworld excitement.

That being said, I did find the base game to be a bit dull; it's basically a waiting room where you try to trigger Free Spins or the Hold & Win feature.

Once you’re in the bonus features, it's pretty standard fare; the Hold & Win feature works exactly as you’d expect, and the Free Spin are bog standard too, with the exception of those magic books that stack the reels with symbols.

That is basically the only standout feature here. That and the chance to win big.

PaylinesPaylines are preset lines that run across the reels, and when you land matching symbols on them, that will result in a payout. The more paylines, the more ways you can win, but also the higher your bet per spin.: 10
Volatility RateSlot games can have low, medium, high, or extremely high volatility rates (or a combination thereof).

The less volatile the game, the more often it should pay out, but the lower the amount, the less the payout, as this is in keeping with the risk you’re taking. Volatility rate should be considered in conjunction with a game’s RTP.
