The wombat says: Well, well, well! Quite a bold statement from NetEnt to create a game called the King of Slots – they have set the bar very high indeed! Those Scandi slot wizards have combined 2 classic slot favourites – fruit and jewels – and chucked them together to create King of Slots (if you like shiny things try our Epic Gems game by the way- something a bit different!)
Say ‘hi’ to a whole load of cool features that include sticky wins and a bonus round that dishes out between 5 and 30 free spins with all your wins tripled. So will this promising slot live up to its name? Let’s find out…
Look and Feel
NetEnt has kept the graphics simple here; your gold rimmed reels are set against a black and blue backdrop and the symbols come in subdued hues. The cartoon king at the bottom right of the screen is the only fancy bit of design on the screen, but we don’t mind, as sometimes 3D graphics can give you a headache! It’s more sophisticated than the Cosmic Cat slot however- that really is going back to basics.
Game Play
King of Slots has 5 reels, 3 rows and 25 pay-lines like the Penguin Splash slot and lots of other good games we could mention.
Your symbols on the reels include some fruity delights; cherries, lemons, watermelons, and the kings crown, mixed in with the usual 10, J, Q, K & A playing cards that make up the lower paying symbols.
The Wild in King of Slots is the big blue gemstone, and your Scatter symbol in the game is the pink diamond icon.
King of Slots Sticky Wins
When you land a winning bet of 3x or more symbols, the Sticky Wins feature will come into play. The reels will spin again, with the winning symbols stuck in place for free. Hurrah!
After the re-spin, if any more symbols have landed to form part of a new payline, you’ll get another spin- and so on and so on until no new winning paylines are created.
All these winning symbols are now frozen in place and the reels will spin one final time, giving you the chance to land some quite frankly enormous wins. We had a screen full of
King of Slots Free Spins
Land 5x or more Scatters on the reels Wombat Fans, and it’s Free Spins time! 5x Scatters may sound hard to achieve but remember that with th Sticky Win feature you’ll be able to lock those Scatters in place making it much easier to hit more of them.
The number of spins you’ll get depends on how many Scatters you landed in the first place, so:
5 Scatters = 10 free spins
6 Scatters = 15 free spins
7 Scatters = 20 free spins
8 Scatters = 25 free spins
9 – 15 Scatters = 30 free spins
And that’s not all folks: any wins you make during the Free Spins Bonus will be tripled thanks to a generous x3 multiplier! And you can re-trigger the free spins, too. Cheers NetEnt!
Conclusion
OK, King of Slots it’s not, but it is a fun and entertaining game. The Sticky Wins mean you are always getting small payouts which keeps you busy while you wait for the Free Spins to trigger. And when they do, thanks to the 3x multiplier, they can deliver some really rather chunky wins. This slot is simple, yet effective – just like us wombats!
