Fans of fantasy themes and slot games have never struggled to find examples of these two loves being combined, and there’s one more on the list after the recent release of NextGen’s Kingdom’s Edge.NextGen are a developer who don’t always get it right, but when they do, they get it incredibly right, so players tend to stand up and take notice when a new game from this provider hits the market.
About the slot
With five reels and 20 paylines, Kingdom’s Edge is playable from 10p to £200 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.A castle stands atop a hill in the background while the reels include various fantasy characters including a King, a Queen, a Giant, a Dwarf, and many more.The lower value symbols are represented by the 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A filler symbols, which is always an odd choice when Kings and Queens also make up the higher values.The slot looks great though, despite that questionable decision, bringing the kingdom to life beautifully.
Gameplay
There’s a few features to look out for here. Firstly, the Rally the Troops feature triggers when a full stack of Gold wilds appears on reel one, any silver wilds elsewhere when then expand and fill other reels as well as adding spins and multipliers to the prizes.Three, four, or five scatter symbols will trigger the Defend the Gates feature and 15, 20, or 25 free spins.Gold wilds will expand to fill the whole reel here while fully stacked gold wilds will trigger a further ten spins.This slot is at its best when the two features are working together, offering up to a 5x multiplier on every free spin.Kingdom’s Edge may not have the most original concept or style, but it’s still a lot of fun to play.
