King’s Mask

Have you got your Pith Helmet ready Wombat Fans?

Make sure you have a big slug of ice cold water as we are off to hot Ancient Egypt in the King’s Mask slot from Play’n GO.

Slot Stats

This is a 5 reel and 3 row online slot machine that was released in May 2022, around the same time as the Western Gold 2 slot from Just for the Win. It’s a high variance game with 20 pay-lines and scatters, wilds, a spins bonus and a Buffalo mechanic (wilds with multipliers). A pretty traditional set up, in other words, compared to games like Bombuster (7×7 grid) and others.

The maximum win is 10,000x your stake. That’s the same level as you will find on the Diamond Royale slot, but that is where the similarities end.

Play’n GO is well-versed in ancient Egypt, and this isn’t the only game to include the well-known Tutankhamun mask, also known as the King’s Mask, in the game, and it probably won’t be the last. Remember, the legend says that whoever comes into possession of the golden mask of King Tut will have unimaginable power and a fortune worthy of a Pharaoh. Well, let’s hope that one plays out!

The theme of this release is bright and breezy with vibrant colours and heaps of riches in the background.

The slot game runs smoothly: Play’n GO are no stranger to high production values, and this game is another one that ticks the visual quality box.

King’s Mask Design

When the Play’n GO team unveiled the King’s Mask slot, the slot machine quickly built into a respectable hit. It is finding its way onto players’ desktop and mobile screen, this game having been developed using HTML5 technology. So you get a smooth, portable gaming experience that works across most devices.

Looking at the reels, they are made up of a five-by-three grid with Egyptian themed symbols. It’s a simple, yet pleasing design with the reels set across the Temple of Tutankhamun and some mystical music playing in the background. That gold sparkles, I must get me some of that!

What you get when the bonus round activates really makes this slot game. Bag a global win multiplier in the Free Spins feature and possibly payouts from wilds, and you could head up to a max 10,000x pay out.

It can take the place of every other symbol on the reels, except for the Scatter. This wild also comes with a 2x multiplier attached. Land 5 and they pay out 1000x your bet.

King’s Mask Bonus Features

Let’s take a look at the different bonus feature options that are available. As with many slot games, the bonus feature is a free spin round, but you have a few to choose from. 3 or more pyrmaid scatters gets you in! (And pays out 10x your stake).

These are the options you can choose from:

– 15 Free Spins with a 3x win multiplier on any winning spin
– 10 Free Spins with a 5x win multiplier on any winning spin
– 5 Free Spins with a 10x win multiplier on any winning spin

It’s a volatility pick basically. Will you hedge your bets with more spins to capture the wins with a x3 payout? Or will you hope to win in 5 with a 10x multiplier. Or go in between with 10 free spins. The choice is yours. Personally we go for the higher number of Free Spins most of the time and occasionally throw in the big multiplier option.
