Book of Ra Classic
Classic is the oldest online version: per SlotCatalog from 2005, with nine lines and a 92.13% RTP. It plays like deluxe — the book as wild and scatter, ten free games with an expanding symbol, the gamble — with older graphics and one line fewer.

We have not captured a Classic paytable ourselves because there is no official demo. The symbols match deluxe; payouts are quoted per line bet.
Why players look for it
Players who met Book of Ra in a European arcade or on a trip often search for “the old Book of Ra”. That usually means Classic: darker reels and the familiar machine sounds. Try the principle in the deluxe demo; the 2.97-point RTP gap is a good reason to prefer deluxe anyway.
