Play Emerald King Slot

Emerald King Review

Emerald King is a retro-looking Reel Kingdom slot where payouts up to 20,000x your stake is possible. It plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 fixed bet lines, and the bonus round features up to 15 Mini Slots. You will also benefit from a progressive base game multiplier here, that increases indefinitely for every non-winning spin. The volatility is on the higher side, but you will still win frequently to keep the multiplier from going too crazy.

The game combines the sweet nostalgia of the classic machine with the charm of the Irish Luck theme. Reel Kingdom has certainly put some horses under the hood here, and big wins are surely possible. How probable they are is another matter, but the ever-building multiplier takes some of the edge off non-winning spins. You might find yourself rooting for losing spins here, as you want that multiplier to really go somewhere for your next win.

Emerald King Features

First of all, you have a pot of gold wild symbol, and this will step in for all regular symbols. You can land the wild on all 5 reels, and it will be collected in a big pot of gold whenever it’s not part of a winning combo. The pot of gold is seen on top of the reel set, and it will sometimes pay you back in the form wilds added randomly to a spin.

The Win Multiplier feature could perhaps be called a “non-win multiplier” instead, and it starts at 1x. The progressive multiplier will then increase with +1 for every consecutive non-winning spin. Whenever you land a winner, the multiplier will be applied, and then reset to 1x again. You can always see the multiplier value you’ve racked up on top of reel 5.

You will often see that 1 or more reels have turned green when they land, and this happens randomly as you play. You will need all 5 reels to turn green on the same spin to trigger the free spins bonus round here. This is called the Mini Slot feature in this game, and you’ll get a 2x win before the bonus round plays out.

You can land as many as 15 different Mini Slots during the feature, and each of them come with only 1 payline. It’s totally random how many Mini Slots you get, and they come with 4 different symbols. You will land red, blue and yellow lucky number 7 symbols, as well as blanks. This is how the different Mini Slot combinations pay:

• You win 2x when you land 3 mixed color 7 symbols
• You win 10x when you land 3 blue 7 symbols
• You win 15x when you land 3 yellow 7 symbols
• You win 20x when you land 3 red 7 symbols

Just like you can land 2x2 or 3x3 mega symbols in the base game, so can the Mini Slots also come in these sizes. If this happens, you will benefit from a random win multiplier you can see in the top right corner of the Mini Slot.

Each Mini Slot will keep going until you land a blank symbol. This means that you did not win, and that particular Mini Slot is then removed from the screen. The free spins round is over when all Mini Slots have been removed from the screen.

The 200 Spins Emerald King Experience

It’s not every day you see an irish luck themed fruit machine like this, and the 20,000x potential didn’t exactly dampen our excitement either. We had quite a thrill ride in our 200 spins experience, and you can see all the highlights in the video below. Keep in mind that our results have no statistical significance, but 200 spins is enough to give you a good feel of the game.

Review Summary

Emerald King is certainly a different take on a well-trodden genre. It combines the nostalgic charm of the classic fruit slot with the irish luck theme in a clever way. The many smaller wins you get seem a bit paradoxical considering the high volatility, but this is due to the “reverse psychology” of the game. The more non-winning spins you land, the bigger the multiplier boost becomes when you finally land a winner.

We hardly had the progressive multiplier above 3x in our 200 spins session, but the random wild feature helped us out a lot. The bonus round can be quite exciting if you land enough Mini Slots. Not least if you get the bigger ones with multiplier values attached. The main attraction is perhaps the 20,000x max win potential, as this is certainly a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for most people.

Pros

• Random wilds added to certain spins
• 2x2 and 3x3 mega symbols
• Progressive win multiplier increases +1 per losing spin
• Mini Slots bonus round with up to 15 mini reels
• High volatility and 20,000x max win potential

Cons

• Frequent smaller wins keeps the multiplier limited

If you appreciate Emerald King you should also try:

You will find 173 irish themed slots in our catalog at the time of writing. This should be more than enough to keep you busy for a while. However, we have also hand selected some games of the same nature for you below, and you can check them all out via the provided links.

Reel King - is the online version of the brick and mortar classic. It comes with all the retro charm you can handle, and the bonus round plays out on a single Mini Slot in this game. You could say that Emerald King is Reel King on steroids, but there is also a Megways version of this game to compete for that spot.

Reel King Megaways - takes everything to a new level. You will benefit from 3 different Reel King features in this game, as well as a bonus round with unlimited progressive win multiplier. The high volatility can match the game at hand, but the 12,500x potential is lagging a bit behind. Still, an exciting game if you enjoy the whole slot within a slot concept.

Leprechaun Goes Wild - comes with a Luck of the Irish bonus feature, and this might help you trigger the all-important bonus round. The free spins come with sticky wilds, and you can win up to 10,000x your stake in total from it. This is a rather simple Play’n Go title, but still charming and fun if you like loads of wilds.
