Review
Put your armour on and become a reel knight on the slot from Yggdrasil Gaming. Arthur’s Fortune takes you back to the medieval era where you will join the other nights at the fable round table. The bravest spinners will be rewarded with a random Wild Conversion feature, Merlin’s Bonus prizes and a Free Spins round that can lead to wins of up to 10,850 times your bet.
Slot Details
Arthur’s Fortune is a video slot with five reels, three rows and 20 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols on a line from left to right only. You can become a reel knight on desktop or mobile from 0.04 to 100 credits per spin. The game has high volatility with an RTP of 96.20%.
Loading the game will treat you to the splendour of Camelot castle overlooking a typical green highlands scenery with knight tents scattered at the foot of the hill. Several knights, Lady Guinevere and King Arthur himself dominate on the reels while a medieval soundtrack adds to the authenticity of the design. Keep an eye on the wooden wheel at the top as it will be at the core of scoring big wins on this slot.
The pay symbols start at the low end with the card royals from 10 through to A, awarding 1x to 1.75x your stake for a single five of a kind. They are followed by three knights on turquoise, blue and green coloured tiles, LAdy Guinevere and King Arthur. Hit five on a line to win 5x to 12.5x your bet.
A crown marked with the words itself is the wild and scatter symbol, substituting for all pay symbols and also triggering the free spins feature. All pay symbols can be converted to wilds, turning gold in the process. Five on a line will yield 27.5x your stake. A blue orb landing on the fifth reel will trigger Merlin’s Bonus.
Arthur’s Fortune Slot Features
Welcome to a medieval world, the time period where most writers placed the Arthurian legend. Apart from creating authentic visuals, Yggdrasil Gaming went to great length to include ample features that can deliver the purported maximum win of up to 10,856.5 times bet, to be exact.
The main feature is the Arthur’s Gold modifier, which can trigger randomly in the base game to convert symbols into wilds. The modifier will be active in a different manner during the Free Spins round. At this point, the wooden wheel at the top comes into play, containing all 10 pay symbols. Initially, it will spin once and the symbol stopping on the marker will turn wild for the current spin. The feature can retrigger and convert up to 10 symbols into wilds, which would lead to a full screen of wilds with a payout of 550x your stake. In the base game, any converted symbols reset before the next spin.
Watch out for the blue orb that can appear on reel five only to trigger Merlin’s Bonus. The sorcerer will appear and grant you a prize:
- Base Game
- Cash prizes: 40 – 500 coins or 2x to 25x your total bet
- Free Spins: 7 | 10 | 14 Free Spins with 1 | 2 | 3 symbol conversions
- Free Spins
- Cash prizes: 50 – 1,000 coins or 2.5x to 50x your total bet
- Extra Free Spins: 1 – 14 additional Free Spins without any further wild conversion
Hitting three or more wild scatters anywhere on the reels in one spin will trigger the Free Spins feature. Alternatively, it can be won from Merlin’s Bonus. The number of free spins and wild conversions are based on the number of triggering scatters. Similarly, retriggers will award a range of extra spins and symbol conversions.
- Trigger 3 | 4 | 5 Scatters: 7 |10 | 14 Free Spins with 1 | 2 | 3 symbol conversions
- Retrigger – 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 Scatters: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 extra Free Spins with 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 additional wild conversions
All instances of a converted symbol will remain wild throughout the entire feature. Only extra free spins will be awarded once all symbols have been converted with no limit to the maximum number of free spins.
Final Verdict
The Arthurian legend is alive and well, at least on slot creations. There is rarely a month going by without a developer presenting the next game featuring the fabled king. Yggdrasil Gaming did a pretty good job, combining authentic visuals with ample feature and a win potential that will please even hardcore reel knights.
