If you’re feeling up for some old-fashioned medieval action, 5 Knights might be able to offer you just what you want. This is an online slot game by software developer NextGen Gaming and it comes equipped with everything you would expect. The graphics are of high quality and feature the occasional animation throughout gameplay. The game will take you to a kingdom far, far away, with a brilliant view over the valley. There’s also an epic soundtrack to accompany the spinning of the reels, so be sure to have your sound on. The symbols here feature your regular lower value playing cards, but these all boast a very appropriate and elegant design. In addition to them there are various thematic icons, such as knights, pieces of their shining armor and the obligatory fair maiden.
Moving on to the more mundane aspects of the game, let’s have a look at its layout. It features a total of 5 reels and 3 rows, which is pretty much the industry standard, and with it is a total of 25 active paylines. However, players are free to play with a lesser number of those if they so choose, and this adds that extra flexibility to the betting range, making it appealing to an even larger audience. Stakes span from a minimum of 0.01p per single spin and up to a maximum bet of £125 per spin.
Where to Play
Special Features
In 5 Knights, you can take advantage of the Gamble Feature after any winning spin, which means you will have the opportunity to double your prize with the help of a simple card game.
Wild
The Wild symbol can land in any position, on any of the reels. It doesn’t offer any payouts of its own, but it will be able to substitute for any of the other symbols in the game, and thus it can help complete winning sequences to boost your winnings. However, the Wild will not be able to replace the Scatter symbol.
Besides its regular Wildly duties, the Wild is also part of its very own special feature. This game boasts something called a Wild Slider. Basically, you can slide it to be over any of the five reels, and whichever reel it is on will be able to land stacked Wild symbols. But there’s more: depending on the reel you choose, the Wild will come with a different multiplier value. For example, if it’s on reel 1, that multiplier value will be 2x. On reels 2, 3 and 4, the multiplier will be 3x, 4x and 5x, respectively. Finally, if you place the Slider on reel 5, you will benefit from the maximum multiplier of 6x. Keep in mind, though, that the higher the multiplier value, the less frequently you will land the Wild symbol.
Scatter
Be sure to keep an eye out for the game’s Scatter symbol. Like the Wild, it too can land in any position, anywhere on the reels, but for you to make the most of it you will need to land at least 3 of these icons simultaneously. As a result, you will activate the Freespins feature and receive a total of 15 free spins.
What’s more, all free spins winnings will be subject to a 2x multiplier, and in addition, this will also affect the Stacked Wilds Multiplier. So, if you can land wins with Wilds on your chosen reel, you can make quite the pretty penny. Furthermore, you can even re-trigger this feature by landing another 3, 4 or 5 Scatters during a spin.
