King of Spear Demo (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

Slot Overview

King of Spear is Pragmatic Play’s latest offering, and this Scatter Pays game is played on a 6×5 grid. Look out for Tumbling Reels, random Multipliers, a progressive level-up-based Free Spins feature, and a modest maximum win potential of 5,000x. Sticking closely to the studio’s proven formula, this looks like a “safe” release from Pragmatic, but is it any good? Let’s find out.

Theme & Design

King of Spear looks very familiar once you load the game; there’s an undeniable similarity to other Pragmatic Play multiplier-based games like Gates of Olympus and Starlight Archer 1000.

Still, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, especially if you’re a fan of these types of games. Visually, you’ll notice that the game carries a strong ancient-warrior theme, with stone arenas, banners, and a heroic spear-wielding king looking over the action. Visually, it’s clean and polished, with sharp symbol artwork and smooth animations during tumbles and multiplier drops.

So, yes, it looks good. Just don’t expect anything overly unique-looking or visually distinct from the many previous Pragmatic games like this!

King of Spear Gameplay & Bonus Features

King of Spear uses a 6-reel, 5-row scatter-pays system where wins are formed by landing eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid. There are no paylines, and all winning symbols are removed after a win, so new symbols can then drop down, potentially allowing for multiple wins in the same spin. You can bet between €0.20 and €100 per spin, and the game’s default RTP is 96.25%.

Now, in the base game and bonus round, random multiplier symbols can land anywhere in view, and these carry values between 2x and 100x. At the end of a tumble sequence, all multipliers on the grid are added together and applied to the total win from that sequence. The game’s sole bonus round, a Free Spins feature, is triggered by landing 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols, awarding 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. 

Now, during the bonus, a level-up system comes into play. At the start of the feature, you begin at Level 1, where multipliers are worth between 2x and 100x. Landing six multipliers during Level 1 spins upgrades the feature to Level 2, increasing the minimum multiplier to 8x. Upgrading to Level 3 introduces a 15x minimum, while reaching Level 4 guarantees a minimum multiplier value of 50x.

Bonus Buy & Ante Bet Options

King of Spear includes both Ante Bet and Buy Bonus options. The Ante Bet increases your stake by 25% and doubles the chance of you landing the Free Spins. There are also four Bonus Buy options:

• Buy Level 1 Free Spins: Costs 100x and begins the Free Spins feature at Level 1.
• Buy Level 2 Free Spins: Costs 200x and begins the Free Spins feature at Level 2.
• Buy Level 3 Free Spins: Costs 400x and begins the Free Spins feature at Level 3.
• Buy Level 4 Free Spins: Costs 500x and begins the Free Spins feature at Level 4.
