Knights of the Golden Egg Slot Review
Knights of the Golden Egg slotđ° from All 4 1 Studios reminded me of an obscure animated film đď¸from 1991, Rock-A-Doodle. In the 90s we still had video stores where you could browse aisles and aisles of gloriously designed VHSđź covers.
The movie revolved around an anthropomorphic Elvis-inspired roosterđ who magically causes the sunđ to rise. The villain, a badass evil owlđŚ, tricks him into moving to the city so the sun doesnât rise at all, and he and his owl kind can eat all the barn animals.
Rock-A-Doodle is a fully independent movie separate from the mammoth Disney or Warner Bros. studios. And the film is better for it. Itâs also the case with Quickfireâ game.
Gameplay
Knights of the Golden Egg slot machine features 5 reels arranged in a 3-4-5-4-3 pattern, offering 720 ways to win. The high symbols include a sword and shield, a bow and quiver, and a wand and staff.
Thereâs an egg-shaped shield that acts as a Wild that appears on reels 2â5, which can substitute for pay symbols with the exception of the Scatter, Golden Egg, Knight, Archer, and Wizard symbols.
The Scatter is another shield that appears on reels 2, 3, and 4, and when 3 appear at once, you can select a round of Free Spins. The Golden Egg is a Prize symbol that ranges in value from 0.6x to 500x your bet.
The rooster Collect Knight symbol is a 1x3-sized Collector symbol that only lands partially or fully on reel 1. The Knight symbol will move to cover the reel when it lands. The Archer and Wizard symbols only appear on reel 5.
The Archer and Wizard symbols will activate their respective features upon landing, while the Knight and at least one Prize symbol will appear on the remaining reels. However, we will delve deeper into these details in a moment.
This game features a 96.24% RTPRTP stands for âReturn to Player.â The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.
RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a gameâs volatility rate. and has high volatility. You can bet between $0.25 and $75. There is a max multiplier of 3,000x, which can lead to the gameâs prize cap of $225,000.
If youâre a cryptocurrency player, this game isnât for you. You can only play this game with fiat currencies, except for the Japanese yen and Russian ruble. Now, on to the features!
Features
EXPRESS COLLECT
Landing the Knight symbol on reel 1 and the prize symbols on adjacent reels triggers this feature. Only when Prize symbols land on adjacent reels from left to right, starting on reel 2, do they collect and award.
WIZARD FEATURE
The Wizard and Knight transform into random Prize symbols when this feature activates. Each reel's Prize symbols combine into a single Prize, bringing you to a mini Plinko gameA Plinko game is played on a pyramid-shaped area with âpinsâ stuck in them. Much like Pinball, a ball gets released from the top and hits the pins on the way down.
Underneath the pyramid is a âtrayâ that catches the ball and is divided into segments; each with a multiplier value. The further towards the edge of the pyramid you go, the higher the multiplier.
Multiplier values are adjusted by cycling through the volatility settings..
You start with 5 spins, 1 for each Prize symbol. A chicken perches at the top of the plinko game and swallows the Prize symbols 1 by 1. There are 5 possible slots the Prize symbol can land in. At the start of each round, random multipliers from 1x to 8x appear under these slots.
Whichever slot the prize symbol lands in is multiplied by, and the final amount is added to your total win for the game. After multiplying all 5 Prize symbols, you receive your total win for the round and return to the base game.
ARCHER FEATURE
When this feature triggers, the Knight turns into 3 Prize symbols, all the prize symbols on reels 1 to 4 are summed up, youâre awarded 5 spins, and youâre taken to a new set of reels.
This feature consists of a single reel with five positions. Above the reel are 8 rows, each with a multiplier next to it, starting at the bottom with 1x and going up to 8x. Your prize amounts are reflected on the bottom row.
As you spin the reel, the following special symbols or blanks appear:
- Target symbol: Only land on reels 1 to 4, and it will move the prize above it up 1 row, increasing the multiplier that it will get.
- Boost symbol: This symbol only lands on reel 5, and it will upgrade all the multipliers next to the board by 2x up to 3 times.
- +1 symbol: Also only lands on reel 5 and will award an additional spin up to a maximum of 7.
- Credit symbol: Only land on reels 1 to 4 and will add a new prize to the board above it. If the bottom row still has a Prize on it, the Credit value is added to it.
This feature ends when you run out of spins. The multiplier on each Prize's row multiplies it, adds it to your total win, and returns you to the base game where you left off.
FREE SPINS
When you trigger Free Spins, you have 2 options:
Play 8 Free Spins with Wild symbols that carry a 2x multiplier that is applied to any wins it helps complete. If more than 1 Wild symbol helps complete a win, their values are added together before multiplying the win. Maximum Wild multiplier is 16x.
You can also retrigger 8 Free Spins by landing 3 Scatter symbols.
Or you can go with option 2, where you get a single Free spin, which is guaranteed to trigger the Wizard or Archer feature. You cannot retrigger this round.
JACKPOTS
The Mini, Minor, and Major Jackpots appear above reels 2, 3, and 4, respectively. You can increase these 3 Jackpots by landing their corresponding Increment symbols on their respective reels.
Once these Jackpots have reached their maximum value, they wonât increase any further, and if theyâre won at any point, their values are reset to their starting value.
- The Mini Jackpot starts at 10x and can increase to 40x your bet.
- The Minor Jackpot starts at 40x and can increase to 120x your bet.
- The Major Jackpot starts at 400x and can increase to 550x your bet.
- The Mega Jackpot cannot be increased, and itâs valued at 2,000x your bet.
To win one of these Jackpots you need to trigger the Jackpot Bonus. This feature is triggered randomly whenever Prize symbols are collected on a non-winning base game spin.
This feature transports you to a new set of reels where Prize symbols and Jackpot symbols can land. Until you win a Jackpot, each position spins independently.
Prize symbols are sticky and stay in place until the end of the feature. Jackpot symbols are collected, and once enough Jackpot's symbols have been collected, youâre awarded it, and the game ends.
You need to collect 3 Mini Jackpot, 4 Minor Jackpot, 5 Major Jackpot, and 6 Mega Jackpot symbols, respectively, to win their prizes. The first Jackpot collected is awarded along with any Prize symbols, and youâre returned to the base game.
Performance
I'm not sure why, but the first time I loaded this game on my gaming laptop, I received a general error message. However, after that, the game played flawlessly for hours. I didnât encounter any errors or issues on my Android phone.
Maximum Win
You can wager as little as $0.25 or as much as $75 per spin. The most you can win is $225,000 if youâre playing with the biggest bet and hit the highest possible multiplier of 3,000x.
Conclusion
I completely overlooked the methods of winning in this game. There are simply so many other winning opportunities in the base game that they pale in comparison.
The 2 features triggered by the Chicken characters are essentially mini-games that help you improve your initial Prize symbol wins. Itâs just a pity they are so finicky to trigger.
This game also offers Free Spins. The first being a pretty standard round of just 8 spins at no cost with 2x Multiplier Wilds. Not especially exciting. The other Free Spin option simply guarantees entry into one of the Wizard or Archer features.
The Jackpots also add a little excitement to the game by allowing you to increase the smaller 3 incrementally and the Jackpot Bonus game lets you win Prize symbols as well.
Feel free to take this well-designed game with you wherever you go, as it performed better on my phone than on my laptop. The graphics may cause some lag, so ensure you have a strong Wi-Fi or data connection.
An overall impressive game from All 4 1 Studios, I highly recommend it. Give it spin and good luck!
