The Rise of the Mountain King slot has plenty of and lucratively rewarding features. There is a King’s Re-spin feature with locked wilds. The center of attention with the highest winning potential is the Rise of the Multiplier feature. It has 6 levels during which you win from scatters that you collect. They increase the number of extra free spins you get and it is unlimited.
You also get multiplier boosts starting from x5 and reaching to x100. Each level gives you more wins, higher multiplier values and extra free rounds. The wins in this feature can be in the range of 2,500x to 50,000x stake. The latter is the jackpot in the game.
The game is set in the Norwegian mountains. There are rocks resembling castles on both sides of the frameless grid, which is transparent. Behind the symbols, you can see a staircase lit on both its sides with lights, clouds and mist. The moon is on the left top of the playing window.
The symbols on the screen include 10, J, Q, K, and A cards along with axes, trolls, shields and princesses. The mountain king is here as a wild and the pink gemstone as the scatter. You will play the Rise of the Multiplier feature in a different place. The game leaves a glorious and epic feel while playing and impresses with its great design.
There are 9 royals at the low end of the paytable from 9 to A and some thematic symbols. These are axes, shields, trolls and princesses. The Mountain King is the wild symbol and substitutes for missing symbols. If you land 3, 4 or 5 of it on a pay-line you will pocket 1.33, 6.33 or 16.66x stake, respectively.
When you get 3 or more Mountain King wild symbols in a single spin you will trigger the King’s Re-spin feature. You will be rewarded with the respective payout of the wilds and receive one free re-spin. If you landed any scatters on the triggering spin they will turn into wild symbols before the start of the re-spin.
Once the re-spin begins, the wilds symbols get locked. The overlay symbols re-spin over the other positions. If you land another wild symbol it also locks and you get another free re-spin. The re-spins continue until you fail to land a new wild symbol. If you fill all 15 positions with wilds you will pocket 500 times your stake!
The pink gemstone is the scatter and is the most valuable of all symbols – 2, 3, 4 and 5 of it pay 2, 5, 20 and 250x stake. Land 3, 4 or 5 scatters to activate the Rise of the Multiplier feature and win 8, 9 or 10 free spins, respectively. You will see a Collect Meter above the reels with the landed scatters added. Each scatter you land during the feature increases its count by 1 and rewards you with 1 extra free spin.
Every time you score a win with the help of a wild, your payout will be boosted with a multiplier, which starts at x5. By collecting scatters, you advance to higher levels, get larger multipliers. This way you also add extra free rounds. The available levels are:
The more scatter you collect, the more extra free spins you add, which means an unlimited number of free spins. You can re-trigger the feature.
The game comes with a Buy Pass feature similar to the other NextGen games. You can buy your access to the Rise of the Multiplier for 100 times your stake. You can also take part in a gamble for a chance to trigger the Buy Pass feature. Due to UK Gambling Commission regulations, the gamble option is not available for UK players.
Rise of the Mountain King is grand in scale and ensures life-changing cash rewards. Once you enter the Rise of the Multiplier feature you will only relish in increased wins. They will come from the scatters, wild multipliers and extra free rounds. The 1st and 6th level can result in 2,500x to 50,000x stake wins! We highly recommend the game!
