KING ARTHUR (FREE SLOT MACHINE SIMULATOR)

King Arthur Slot

The legendary king and his epic Excalibur sword are brought to life in the King Arthur slot. Our review will take a closer look at the collaborative effort between NextGen Gaming and Betdigital that comes with expanding symbols in the base game and free spins as well as the random Jousting feature. Also included is a Fortune Bet option that will eliminate low-value symbols from the Table Wheel to increase the chance of hitting big wins with high-value symbols.

Yeah, we can hear you. Yet another slot with the “Book of…” pay mechanic. There must be well over 100 titles now available that feature the expanding symbol mechanic. Question is whether the King Arthur slot will stand out from the crowd. Time to take a closer look.

Play on Royal Reels for Royal Wins

As our review team opened the King Arthur slot they found themselves in a misty, coastal scene at sundown with the mighty Camelot castle is the background. The game window itself has been kept rather simple without much ornaments or other clutter. The Table Wheel with the expanding symbol selector towers on top of the reels. Unfortunately, the soundtrack is pretty generic and doesn’t add any suspense to the gameplay.

The pay symbols in the King Arthur online slot can appear stacked in the base game and free spins. They start at the low end with the usual 10 to A playing cards, followed by the Excalibur sword, the sorcerer Merlin, and Queen Guinevere. King Arthur himself is the wild symbol, which will also act as a scatter if it lands in full view. The standard scatters are gold coins with King Arthur’s portrait.

The Royal Numbers to Digest

King Arthur is a video slot with five reels, three rows, and 10 fixed pay lines. You can join the royal reel jousting on mobile or desktop from 0.10 to 10 credits.

The RTP of this medium variance game is set at 95.03%, which is well below the industry average. You can also set 10 to 100 consecutive spins without interruption.

Hit Big Wins With the Random Jousting Feature

The Random Jousting feature can trigger randomly on any spin in the base game of the King Arthur slot machine. One knight will appear from each side of the game window for a jousting match to award one of two reel modifiers, based on which rows they are.

The knights will start their run and if both are on the same row, they will hit in the middle and spread a number of random wilds. Should they be on different rows, then they will turn a minimum of three regular symbols into wild symbols, except wilds and scatters.

The Table Wheel and the Fortune Bet Explained

When you load the King Arthur slot, you will observe a table wheel on top of the game window resembling the fame knights table, which is deactivated as default. You can activate it via the Fortune Bet button. It will then spin with the reels in every game round to randomly stop one pay symbol in view, which is then the expanding symbol for the current spin. However, activating the wheel will add cost to your standard bet.

In default, the table wheel is switched off and no extra cost is charged. There are five levels you can activate, which will gradually increase your bet amount, but at the same time will remove low-value symbols from the wheel, providing more potential for wins with high-value symbols

Activating the feature with all regular pay symbols on the table wheel will cost you two times the default bet. Removing the 10s from it will cost a total of four times the default stake. You can gradually remove more symbols up to the point where 10, J, Q, K and As do not appear on the wheel, increasing the cost to 10x your default bet.

For example, a 1.00 coin default bet will increase to 2.00 coins in the first level, and up to 10 coins in the last level. A rather expensive extra feature as our review team of the King Arthur slot commented. It’s certainly not an option for low rollers or even most medium rollers.
