Kingdoms Rise: Chasm of Fear Slot – Free Demo

The 1024 is four rows on five reels

Kingdoms Rise: Chasm of Fear is a video slot with 5 reels. The base game shows 4 rows on every one of them, which is where the 1024 comes from. It has something as customary as 1024 ways to win in a Playtech slot, and it is part of the Kingdoms Rise series, whose shared shop and jackpot extend across all the games in it. The jackpot can be won on any spin of any amount, and a higher bet raises the chance of it.

Sea Serpent and Mermaid pay from two

Depicted by the Sea Serpent and the Mermaid, the premium symbols both already pay from 2 of a kind. Everything else on the grid needs three on consecutive reels, counted from the left. The Sea Serpent is the best symbol. It pays 50 coins a way for 5 of a kind. Those paytable figures are per way and in coins, so they are multiplied by the coin bet before they reach the balance.

Octopus wilds on the middle three reels

The Wild symbols show up on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. The wild here is an octopus. They stand in for everything except the scatters, and they can drop as a 2x or a 3x multiplier wild. Both frames I captured came off the logged session, each with two octopus wilds on screen and a 22.00 win on a 10.00 total bet. That then multiplies the win they finish.

The row the scatter lands on picks the feature

The Respin feature is triggered when a scatter drops on row 2 of reel 5, and the respin is played with 2 additional rows on reels 2, 3 and 4. Scatters land on reel 5 and nowhere else, so the row one stops on is what decides which of the two features arrives. So the 1024 ways become 3456 ways. The two extra rows go on the middle three reels only; reels 1 and 5 stay at 4.

What the Free Games round adds while it runs

The Free Games feature is started by a scatter on row 3 or row 4 of reel 5. My first one arrived on spin 55 and paid 360.00, 36.0x the stake, against 3.00 from the base game on the same spin. During Free Games the reels retain the 2 additional rows on reels 2, 3 and 4. The second came 34 spins later on spin 89, retriggered, and finished at 1,350.00. All 3456 ways are in play for the length of the feature. The two rounds moved the balance from 9,845.00 to 10,198.00 and then from 9,886.00 to 11,226.00.

Three additional Free Games are granted for every scatter dropping on row 3. Both awards depend on a scatter arriving during the round itself, so the count can only grow while the feature is already running. Six additional are granted for every scatter dropping on row 4. A scroll banner hangs to the right of the reels holding a token marked New; tokens collect on symbols during any spin and are spent on features in the Kingdoms Rise Shop.

Minty Slots Verdict: Two rows are the whole difference between the two states of this game. Reels 2, 3 and 4 grow from four rows to six for the respin and for Free Games, the 1024 ways become 3456 while either runs, and a scatter stopping on reel 5 is the only thing that opens them.

210 spins in the chasm

It took me exactly 55 spins to trigger the first bonus. The longest stretch I went without a win of any size was 21 spins, ending on spin 80. For the second bonus I only had to play through another 34 spins. The balance peaked at 11,230.00 on spin 94, and its low point was 9,755.00. My two bonuses paid 1,710 credits between them, 69% of everything I won. The other 760.00 came out of the base game.

Over 210 spins at a 10-credit stake I finished up ahead. I wagered 2,100.00 across them and took back 2,470.00. 10,000 credits turned into 10,370, a session return of 117.6%, and the retriggered bonus on spin 89 alone paid 135x the stake. The largest win outside a bonus round was 140.00 on spin 50. Only 45 spins of 210 paid anything at all and 24 of those paid less than the stake.

I did like the fact that it is a 1024 ways slot that opens up to 3456 ways in the features.
