Play the new Beetle Jewels slot from iSoftBet at Videoslots Casino
VideoSlots Casino has just added the latest iSoftBet slot called Beetle Jewels to their casino, this is a title that is heavily inspired by the classic Book of Ra Deluxe slot from Novomatic, but thankfully iSoftbet has added their own little twist to offer something new in terms of the key mechanics.
The Beetle Jewels slot is a regular 5×3 reel slot and has 10 fixed paylines, as you would expect from the title the reels are made up of a mixture of regular low paying symbols (10, J, Q, K, A) along with a mixture of special Beetle symbols that have jewels encrusted into them, with the highest paying symbols also having a gold outline.
On top of these symbols, there is also a special Wild Beetle Symbol which also acts as the Scatter symbol to trigger the main free spins bonus round.
The great news is there doesn’t look have to have been a compromise in terms of the paytables with some huge paying premium symbols and expanding symbols mechanic on offer during the bonus round, needless to say, expect this to play just like Book of Ra in terms of its super high variance and win potential.

Beetle Jewels Slot – Bonus Round
The main free spins round is triggered by landing 3 or more of the special Scatter/Wild Beetles anywhere on the reels and awards you with an initial 10 Free Spins.
During the bonus round, you will notice an extra mini-reel just above the main reel set, whichever symbol lands in view in this reel acts as the special expanding symbol for that spin, this means any matching symbols in the main reels will expand to cover all positions.
This mechanic is the same in theory to Book of Ra Deluxe with the twist that on each spin the special symbol changes, and of course you can r-trigger the free spins multiple times during the bonus round by landing 3 or of the Scatter/Wild Symbols.

Overall Thoughts
Beetle Jewels is a very decent release from iSoftBet, they have managed to capture the essence and mechanics of Book of Ra and introduced a slightly different mechanic to the bonus round to make it definitely worth checking out.
If you are a fan of high variance slots then will definitely appeal, in our playtests the bonus rounds ended in the 20x stake range right up to 400x stake.
With a full screen of the highest paying symbols paying 50,000 coins there’s plenty more potential to this slot!
