Reel King Mega

Starting off with physical arcade machines before later being translated to online slots, Reel King is a name that many punters may recognise.

Titles in the series tend to opt for a more traditional appearance, with the Reel King Mega slot being no different. The background features a castle and an assortment of trees, all tinted red, while piles of coins fill up the bottom of the screen.

Keeping in line with the classic theme, no background music is present during the base game. Sound effects will still activate for different events, however, including when matching combinations are formed, or one of the bonuses is triggered.

Although the original Reel King title was created by Barcrest, this title was produced by Red Tiger. This company has an impressive portfolio of online slots to their name, with Gonzo’s Quest Megaways and Wild Spartans being notable releases.

Red Tiger focuses on a wide variety of different themes, ensuring that punters never know what to expect next!

Game Features

When taking a look at the symbols in Reel King Mega video slot, the standard icons consist of cherries and a plum.

Interestingly, while they are often shown as regular symbols in other online slots, the 10, J, Q, and K icons are premiums in this release.

Should five of these form a matching combination, players will be awarded with 3x, 3x, 5x, or 10x their stake size, in that order. Last but not least is the top symbol, shown as a bag of coins, which can award up to 25x the bet.

There is only one special icon in this release, shown as the word ‘Wild’ wearing a jester hat. Of course, this symbol can replace any of the standard or premium icons mentioned above, should a matching combination be possible as a result.

Now, let’s take a look at the different bonus features in Reel King Mega, starting with the spin modifier. At random, the crown from the logo at the top of the screen can jump onto the board, landing in different positions. Wherever it lands will become wild before any potential winnings are calculated.

The other bonus mode can trigger when all of the reels come with a yellow background. Players will hear the ‘ping’ sound that has become synonymous with Reel King titles in the past, before the reel illuminates. This will start from reel 1, and if it continues to reel 5, a maximum of five reel kings will make an appearance.

Each character comes with a 3×1 reel set that features a single payline. Possible combinations include mixed 7s, blue 7s, yellow 7s, and red 7s, which can award players with 2x, 5x, 10x, or 25x their stake size, respectively. This continues until a spin does not form a matching combination, at which point the corresponding Reel King will stop.

When all of the characters have finished, the potential winnings will be totalled up and awarded to the player before taking them back to the base game.
