The Knight King Slot Review

The Knight King - Slot Overview

The Knight King throws you into a fairy tale style medieval world with knights, princesses and dragons spread across 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines. The backdrop is all forests, mountains and a distant castle, with glossy cartoon graphics that look neat but feel quite generic for this studio. I found the base game pace straightforward, focused on line wins and the occasional Special Money Symbol that drops extra cash on chosen icons.

You spin The Knight King from 0.20 up to 100 per go, which covers casual play and more serious sessions. The default RTP sits at 96.05%, though operators can pick lower settings of 95.02% or 94.06%, so I always check the info screen first. Volatility is high, which matches the 5,000x max win. Core features are simple enough: Wild Symbol, Special Money Symbol, Free Spins and an 80x Bonus Buy option.

Design and Atmosphere in The Knight King

The Knight King leans hard on a romantic medieval vibe, with the reels framed by green hills, sharp peaks and a storybook castle. The symbols use a bright cartoon style, so even the dragon comes across more playful than menacing. Animations are clean when you hit a decent line or land the money symbols, but I never felt much tension or build-up. It looks good, just a bit production-line in personality.

Symbols and Paytable in The Knight King

In The Knight King, wins land when you hit three to five matching symbols on adjacent reels from the left. The low paying set is 10, J, Q, K and A, returning between 1x and 2.5x your bet for five of a kind. Premiums are the horse, princess, knight and dragon, paying from 3.5x up to 7.5x for a full line. So regular symbol hits can stack up quite nicely at higher stakes.

The wild symbol is a horse on a golden shield, and that one does some heavy lifting. It substitutes for all pay symbols to complete lines, and it also has its own paytable. Landing three, four or five wilds on a payline awards 40x, 100x or 300x your stake, which is chunky for a line hit. The knight in armour acts as the scatter, triggering free spins when it lands on reels 1, 3 and 5.

Bonus Features in The Knight King

The base game in The Knight King is built around the Special Money Symbol feature. On any spin, a regular paying symbol or the wild can be chosen at random. When that happens, every instance of that symbol lands with an instant cash value between 0.5x and 20x your bet. You do not need a separate collect symbol; you just take the total of all cash values in view, which keeps things very clear.

Three scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 trigger 7 free spins and pay 3x the bet upfront. Before the bonus starts, one paying icon or the wild is picked as the Special Money Symbol for the entire round. If it is a regular symbol, its starting value ranges from 1x to 7x the stake; if it is the wild, the value sits in the 11x to 20x band. These money versions can show up on any free spin.

Each time the chosen Special Money Symbol lands and pays during free spins, its assigned value increases by a random step taken from the same range. So a low starting icon can grow into a serious payer if you keep collecting it. In my sessions, the feature could feel quite streaky, but when it lines up it does the heavy lifting. If you are impatient, you can buy straight into free spins for 80x your bet where allowed.

RTP, Volatility and Max Win in The Knight King

From a numbers angle, The Knight King sticks close to this studio’s usual template. The official max win clocks in at 5,000x your stake, which is solid without being jaw-dropping. The volatility is high, rated 5 out of 5, and in long samples the hit rate hovers around one win every four or five spins. Bonus frequency sits near 1 in 217 spins, and the top prize is mathematically very rare, in the millions of spins range.

The adjustable RTP bands mean I always check which version I am actually playing, as 96.05% feels fine while 94.06% is much tighter over time. In practice, the game behaves like a classic high variance slot: stretches of small line wins, sudden spikes when money symbols align, and the bonus either dribbling or throwing out a big upgrade streak. Bankroll wise, I treat it as something that can swing fast in both directions.

The Knight King Slot Verdict

After a fair few sessions on The Knight King, my take is that it is a decent but rather standard medieval slot. The Special Money Symbol idea keeps both base game and free spins focused on instant cash hits, yet outside that the gameplay feels a bit bare. If you like straightforward high variance grinds with a single main feature and a 5,000x ceiling, it does the job, but it never quite feels special.
