Oasis of Dead Slot Review 2024
Pay attention, Play’n GO are back with a brand new release, Oasis of Dead!
Set in front of a stunning backdrop of a huge Egyptian building and stone pillars covered in ivy, Oasis of Dead passes the eye test. Oasis of Dead starts with a straightforward base game that can transform into something much more exciting with the use of bonus features, including Free Spins and a gamble round.
Will the gameplay be as good as the visuals? Find out in our in-depth slot review.
Base Game & Features
Oasis of Dead is a simple-looking traditional 5-reel, 3-row slot that contains up to 10 pay lines with every spin. Players can play with a minimum bet of £/€0.01 and a maximum bet of £/€100 per spin, as well as everything in between.
Play’n GO has released multiple versions of Oasis of Dead, all with different RTP ratings – 96.58%, 94.51%, 91.51%, 87.56, and 84.55%. Please check the version your choice of casino has before making a bet.
Oasis of the Dead is a highly volatile slot with a maximum win potential of 5,000x the bet from a single spin. As we have seen with some of Play’n GO’s recent releases, Oasis of Dead works in coins, so the size of the win depends on the amount of coins you receive.
The cards ranked 10 to A are the game’s low-paying symbols and reward players with between 80 and 120 coins for a line of five. The pharaohs, snakes, crocodiles, and scarabs are the high-paying symbols, and they can be worth up to 5,000 coins for a winning combination of five. The golden building symbol is the wild and scatter symbol.
Gamble Round
If you are feeling extra lucky once you have landed a win and want to increase the size of your prize, the gamble round is the perfect opportunity to do so.
Correctly predict the face-down colour of the card, and you will double your original prize. If you can correctly guess the suit on the card, you will quadruple your win. If you guess incorrectly, the round is over, and you lose your prize.
Free Spins
Landing 3, 4, or 5 golden building symbols will reward players with 8 Free Spins and a cash prize worth 2x, 20x, or 200x the bet.
Before the free spins begin, one symbol gets chosen to become the Expanding Symbol. If the designated symbol can form a win during free spins, it will expand to cover all the reels and result in cash prizes being rewarded.
Landing an additional 3 Scatters during the free spin round will retrigger the spins and reset the total to 8. A new symbol will also be selected to become the expanding symbol, replacing the one from the previous round.

Conclusion
As slot fanatics, we have seen Play’n GO release many slots that fall under the ‘Book’ or ‘Book of’ banner to the point where things quickly become boring.
Often Play’n GO releases a game that falls under the ‘book of’ bracket, but they include a unique aspect, such as a new bonus feature that helps change the feel, but that has not been the case with Oasis of Dead. We feel their latest release is very similar to many other games that we have already experienced and reviewed.
If we were to look past Play’n GO’s deep list of similar slots and look at Oasis of Dead on its own, it would be a solid game. Not only does it have stunning visuals, but it also has a free spin round and themed symbols that help build the Egyptian-styled theme.
If you are a fan of the ‘Book of’ collection, you will be in your element when playing Oasis of Dead. However, due to the repetitiveness, we feel Oasis of Dead does not have the wow factor and the excitement that a game of this quality should have.
