Theme and Symbols

The overall concept of this online video slot revolves around one of the oldest games in the world. Of course we are talking about the game of chess!

As soon as you power up the game you will find yourself standing in front of a regal mosaic with horse figurines gracing the sides of a large central piece which is where all the action takes place. Following you on this journey will be smooth piano music echoing throughout the premises and providing for a nice atmosphere.

Now let’s take a look at the paytable:

• King is the most valued icon followed by a queen, the rook, bishop and a knight which are symbols on a medium payscale.
• Card suit symbols are the lowest paying ones.
• Silver shield with a W letter depicts a Wild while Scatter is represented with a golden sigil with free spin written on it.

Betting Options and Other Options

Shah Mat is a 8 reel 8 rows high online one – armed bandit with a cluster pay system where betting ranges span from 0,2 to 20 coins per spin, while the maximum payout is valued at 4000x your stake.

Seeing as this high volatility online video slot comes with the best odds percentage of 95.79%, makes it currently below the iGaming standard, which is set at 96%.

Special Features

Wild – substitutes for all paying symbols and when two or more Wild symbols appear adjacent to each other they will merge into a one Wild symbol with a multiplier value based on how many of the multiplier amounts merged. The maximum multiplier stands at 20x and they will be applied to wins where Wild is a part of a winning cluster.

Cascade – gets triggered whenever a winning cluster occurs which will remove the winning icons replacing them with new icons and provide for more wins per spin. This continues until there are no more wins.

Super Symbols – All of the high – paying symbols have their 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 Super symbol variations. There is a possibility of multiple super symbols appearing and helping in forming a winning cluster.

Free spins – Landing 3,4,5 or 6 scatters on the grid awards 12, 15, 18 or 21 free spins, respectively. During the round, merging wilds increase the global multiplier up to a maximum of 20x and it will apply to any winning cluster.

Landing more scatters during the bonus round awards +1 Bonus spin.

Conclusion

Shah Mat is a thrilling online video game with a cluster pay mechanic and popular features that will certainly make punters well – interested. It also comes with a fine maximum payout but lacks in the RTP department, which may prove to be a nuisance, so keep that in mind before giving this one a spin!
