CASH CONNECTION™ - Golden Book of Ra™
About this machine
This Book has it all: Free games, special expanding symbols, retriggers as well as Lock ’N’ Wins and Progressives on top! Opening a new chapter in the history of the legendary Book, the Golden Book of Ra™ raises the bar.
WILD substitutes for all symbols except SUN DISC and the scattered SPECIAL EXPANDING SYMBOL of the free games feature.
6 or more SUN DISC symbols trigger the LOCK ‘N’ WIN FEATURE: SUN DISCs are labelled with credit prizes and free games as well as MEGA BONUS and SUPER BONUS free game wins that are evaluated at the end of the feature. All SUN DISCs are locked in position while the remaining reel positions turn into individual reels for 3 initial respins. Respins are reset to 3 as long as additional SUN DISCs appear. The LOCK ‘N’ WIN FEATURE ends when either no respins remain or a full screen of SUN DISCs is collected – in which case the GRAND is won. Prizes of the LOCK ‘N’ WIN FEATURE are the Grand Jackpot, Major Jackpot, Mega Bonus (25 free games) and Super Bonus (10 free games) as well as credit prizes and free games.
The free games start with a random SPECIAL EXPANDING SYMBOL that expands to cover all three positions on the respective reels and pays on any position. Free games are played at trigger bet and can be won again during the free games feature through 3 or more WILD GOLDEN BOOK symbols that trigger 10 additional free games.

Where CASH CONNECTION™ - Golden Book of Ra™ sits in NOVOMATIC's range
CASH CONNECTION™ - Golden Book of Ra™ is part of NOVOMATIC's Cash Connection line, which runs to 31 documented titles. Manufacturers ship a hit as a family rather than one box, so entries in a series share branding and often a bonus structure while carrying different maths.
It runs on NOVOMATIC's CoolFire™ II-s platform. The platform is the cabinet family — screen geometry, button deck, seat — and it is what you recognise from across a floor before you can read the title.
Mechanically it is a 5 reels / 10 pay lines game. Pay-line games award only on defined line patterns, which typically means fewer but larger hits than an equivalent ways-to-win title.
What "CASH CONNECTION™ - Golden Book of Ra™" actually refers to
NOVOMATIC sells the European way: a cabinet ships with a mix of dozens of titles behind one menu, and the operator licenses the pack rather than the individual game. So this entry is a game inside a mix, not a machine you will find standing alone on a floor.
That matters for payback. The theoretical return is configured per game per installation, and operators in most European jurisdictions choose from a set of approved percentages. Manufacturers ship the same title in multiple par versions — commonly spanning roughly 85% to 96% across the industry — and nothing on the machine tells you which one you are sitting at.
Numbers you find quoted for this title elsewhere are almost certainly from its online version, which is a separate product with its own certified maths and typically a higher published return.
Where to play
We don't yet have verified floor placements for this machine. Our casino cross-reference covers 442 properties, but only through IGT's public linked-progressive data — which doesn't reach NOVOMATIC titles. We would rather show nothing than guess.
Rest of the Cash Connection line
All 31 Cash Connection machines →31 titles carry this branding. They share artwork and usually a bonus structure, but each ships its own maths.
Also on the CoolFire™ II-s platform
The platform is the cabinet family — same screen geometry and button deck. If you can spot one of these across a floor, you can spot all of them.
