40 Thieves

One Thousand and One Nights is synonymous with Middle Eastern folklore, especially Arab folklore. These—together with treasure-seeking quest, stealing, magic, and organized crime—are some of the themes brought to the fore by games developer Bally Wuff through its video slot named 40 Thieves, which is a slot game adaptation of Alibaba and the Forty Thieves tale. Like in the aforementioned tale, 40 Thieves is about a peasant woodcutter called Ali Baba who not only chances on the location where the thieves stash their loot, but also the magic password. 40 Thieves is named after the thieves, numbering forty.

Horsemen, Magic Book (December 2016), and Magic Book 6 (October 2016) are other Bally Wuff’s games with similar themes. Rival games include Arabian Nights from NetEnt, Alibaba and the 40 Thieves from Leander Games, and Open Sesame from Ash Gaming.

Eight of the 40 Thieves symbols (hidden loot, horse, the golden loot, sword; and diamond, clubs, hearts, and spades suits) require three, four, or five winning combinations; and one symbol (the thief) requires three, four, or five winning combinations.
