Rise Of The Mountain King Slot Review – NextGen Gaming
NextGen Gaming is a studio who has been established for nearly 2 decades. With a long list of game releases, some well known in the casino industry. The last game I reviewed from the studio is ‘Pillars Of Asgard’, which shows high variance and up to 1,000,000 betways. The next slot venture is ‘Rise Of The Mountain King’, which is available to play now across all sites.
One studio who has already released a similar game is Quickspin, with the release of ‘ In The Hall Of The Mountain King’. Both have the same theme, inspired by the soundtrack Hall Of The Mountain King by Edvard Grieg. The soundtrack is well known and recognisable once you hear it. However, there are big differences between visuals and features. The visuals are definitely eyecatching, set above the clouds with a beautiful night sky. The artwork is unique with impressive detail and a non-saturated theme used.
Rise Of The Mountain King has a classic setup of 5 reels by 3 rows, this includes 30 set pay lines. This game is high variance due to the set RTP of 96.31% and max win capped at 50,000x. You can bet from £0.30 – £15.
Rise Of The Mountain King Symbols & Paytable
There are 12 symbols in total, this includes 6 low paying symbols. These are represented by 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 4 premium symbols, these are represented by axes, shields, trolls and a female character. In addition to these regular symbols, there is a scatter symbol and mountain king wild. The highest paying symbol is the mountain king wild, which pays 16.7x for 5 across a pay line. The wild substitutes for all symbols except the scatter.
Rise Of The Mountain King Features
There are two features included in this slot, the first is the ‘King’s Re-spin Feature’. 3 or more wilds will award a free re-spin with held wilds. Scatters that appear on the triggering spin turn into wilds. Re-spin is retriggered if one or more additional wild lands during the re-spin.
The second and central feature is the ‘Free Spins’. Triggered by landing 3 or more scatter symbols during one spin. 3 Scatters Award = 8 Free Spins, 4 Scatters Award = 9 Free Spins and 5 Scatters Award = 10 Free Spins. During spins a meter will appear above the reel set. Wilds start with an x5 multiplier, collecting scatters will fill up the meter and award an additional spin for each scatter that lands. Every 3 scatters that land will fill up the meter which will increase the multipliers on each level by x10, x15, x25, x50 and x100 for the max.
Conclusion
Overall, this game has insane volatility on offer thanks to the max win of 50,000x and innovative bonus feature. Visuals are beautifully crafted and show impressive detail. Be sure to try the slot out for yourself and check out our exclusive casino offers.
