A departure from NextGen’s trademark style featuring vibrant and splashy colours and somewhat more traditional themes, the Rise of the Mountain King game with a 5x3 grid and 30 paylines is sleeker, more sophisticated, and slightly more subdued. However, this high-volatility game might very well turn out to become the stuff of legends with its jackpot of 50,000 times your stake. Travel far to visit the awe-inspiring Mountain King from the Norwegian fairy tale of Per Gynt and enjoy the stunning quality of its graphics as well as its hugely entertaining gameplay that will likely have you spinning for hours.
Rise of the Mountain King slot online sets its main game in the famous Hall of the Mountain King. Against this mysterious backdrop, you will spot familiar symbols like standard low-value card symbols. You will also come across objects and characters from the fairy tale such as an axe and a shield, as well as the Mountain King and his daughter.
The menacing title character is the wild symbol of the Rise of the Mountain King online slot. Matching 5 of these across all 5 reels will result in a 500-coin win, but by itself it can substitute for any regular symbol. Meanwhile, the most coveted symbol is the scatter, represented by jewels. If you are lucky enough to match 5 of these, you will win 7500 coins!
Free spins are unlocked by landing at least 3 scatter symbols. A Collect Metre appears, keeping track of how many scatters you land during these spins. The more scatters you collect, the more free spins you get and the higher the multiplier is increased.
Landing 3 wilds will activate the King’s Re-Spin. In this bonus, all the wilds are locked in place to help you land more winning combinations while all scatters are turned into wilds.
The Rise of the Mountain King slot machine has a relatively low maximum bet amount at just 15. This might not be ideal for high-rollers, but the potential for a huge payout with the game’s bonus features should not be overlooked.
While you can play this game for free in demo mode, those willing to try placing bets for real can stake as little as 0.30.
This slot is mobile-optimised and can be played on any device.
This high-volatility game has a high RTP of 96.31%.
Despite such a low maximum bet amount, you could still win a jackpot of 50,000!
NextGen have outdone themselves not only in the gameplay department but also the graphics. Though it’s ideal to play on as big a screen as you can find to appreciate the beauty of the artwork, you will experience zero problems playing on a smaller smartphone or tablet screen. Switch to landscape mode to get a better look at the grid.
