Why the RTP at a casino may differ

Providers ship the same game in several return configurations, and each casino picks which version it runs. Across the market the spread typically runs 2–8 percentage points below the headline figure. The number here is the provider specification — the version actually running is shown inside the game, in its rules screen.

Book of Cats review

A tongue-in-cheek take on the classic "book" formula: instead of a stern tomb-raider, the reels here are ruled by Egyptian cats decked in gold. The book acts as both wild and scatter — three of them launch free spins, before which a special expanding symbol is chosen at random. Get lucky and draw the pharaoh cat, and the symbol spreads across a full reel to make it rain gold. There's a double-or-nothing gamble and a bonus buy too. High volatility is par for the genre. This slot is built for fans of Book of Ra and Book of Dead who want the same tried-and-tested formula but with humour and kitties in place of solemnity.
