Three Reel King rounds in 460 spins, and only the first mattered: it lit all six red reels and paid 90x the stake on spin 100. The Halloween edition swaps in pumpkin Mini Slots, a Witch Hat wild on the top reel and a free-spins multiplier with no cap, yet my 1,000.00 still slid to 896.60.
Reel Spooky King Megaways is as typical as an Inspired Gaming slot comes, with 6 reels, 2 to 7 rows and 117,649 ways, and it's playable on all devices from €0.20 to €20. Its sibling in the same Inspired Gaming series is Reel King Megaways. It has a max win of 12,500x the wager, and the RTP is 95.56%. I played 460 spins at a 1.00 stake from a 1,000.00 balance and finished on 896.60, a session return of 77.5%.
Reel Spooky King Megaways contains low paying symbols down to cherries and high paying symbols up to the cauldron. The latter is the most valuable of the ordinary symbols, giving a 50x win for 6 of a kind, and the slot also ships with a Witch Hat wild symbol. The Witch Hat substitutes for every pay symbol, in the base game and in the free spins alike. It appears only on the top reel. Below the cauldron, the A pays 7.5x the stake for six of a kind, the K and Q pay 2x and the cherries pay 0.8x.
Players can profit from lit reels in the primary game, and if a winning tumble arrives, one extra reel will light up on top of the 0 to 6 reels that begin lit each spin. The reels that start lit fill from left to right, and winning symbols are removed so new ones drop in for as long as fresh wins keep forming.
This way it is feasible to illuminate all 6 reels. That activates the Reel King feature, and this is fairly much all that is taking place in the base game. Each further cascade after all six reels are lit upgrades it to Super King with 2 to 3 pumpkin Mini Slots and then to Spooky King with 3 to 6, against 1 to 2 at the Reel King tier.
Illuminating all 6 reels can lead to 8 to 25 free spins. A Mini Slot that lights all 3 of its reels moves the player along the Free Spins Trail, which tops out at 15 spins for Reel King, 20 for Super King and 25 only at the Spooky King tier. If all 6 red reels are lit in the free spins game, an extra 1 to 3 spins will be added. Before the round starts, the award can be gambled on a wheel whose green sections add spins up to 25 and whose red sections take them away, possibly down to zero. The free spins round is equivalent to the primary game in terms of play and mechanics. But it has a multiplier that begins at x1 and increases by 1 after every winning tumble. That multiplier has no upper limit, and lighting the sixth red reel can raise it by a further 0 to 3.
Minty’s Final Note: Although it does have the capacity for some truly pleasant hits, this is a very basic and ordinary Inspired Gaming slot with rather low returns and moderate volatility. Over my 460 spins the Reel King feature triggered three times, on spins 100, 353 and 426, and each run dealt 10 free spins. It's certainly not the poorest game I've played. The first lit all six red reels for 3 extra spins and paid 90.00, or 90x the stake, while the other two returned 9.8x and 4.4x. But with a free spins game too close to the base game, it does get a little monotonous.
