Kingdom of Gloryby ThunderSpin

The Legend of King Arthur is known far and wide. The sword in the stone, the Knights of the Round Table, are all icons of world mythology.

As with anything so well known…

…there are versions in cinema, TV, videogames, and pretty much every conceivable type of media.

It’s a story so captivating it just has to be told over and over again.

Now, slot developer, Thunderspin is retelling the story in the Kingdom of Glory offering that’s all about Arthur, Lancelot, and the other characters in this enduring story about honor and magic swords.

Theme

Everything is appropriately medieval here. The background shows rolling pastoral hills with a big castle in the background.

It’s Camelot, of course. And inside Camelot are the characters we all know and love. King Arthur, Lady Guinevere, the magical and mysterious Morgana, and Lancelot.

They represent the high-paying symbols as is expected with the low paying jobs going to various pieces of medieval equipment and jewelry.

Merlin is there of course…

…and his appearance on the reels is as a scatter symbol and also a separate sticky wild symbol in the extra spins mode.

Betting Options and Functions

Camelot is represented here as a 5x3 grid with 20 fixed paylines. Pretty traditional and there are no surprises in the basic functioning of the game.

Autoplay is available for those who don’t want to click over and over, and there is also a button that will speed up the animations. In that way, if you’re in a hurry or just want to see the result, you can just click it.

Special Features

King Arthur is not a new theme for slot games. Many have attempted the same thing Thunderspin is doing.

But what the developer did do is fill this game with some pretty interesting features.

In the base game, the main attraction is the nudge. Any time there are scatters on the screen they will nudge one reel so that the maximum possible win is made (two scatters will nudge two reels). There won’t be a nudge if the win can’t be improved, meaning the feature won’t override a better win.

There are extra spins too…

…which happen when three scatters appear. Ten spins will be awarded and there will be a sticky wild in the center which will grant nudges after every spin. But unlike in the base game, up to three reels will be nudged in search of the best possible outcome.

Our Take

It is true…

…that there are many games about this particular legend, but Thunderspin does not disappoint. They have managed to marry high-quality graphics to innovative and engaging features.

And that’s a pretty good marriage if you ask us. Even if you are not a big fan of the Arthurian legends, there’s still a well-crafted real money gaming experience underneath the medieval theme.
