Description: Royal Spins is, without a doubt, one of the free slots driving the immense popularity of online slots in the UK Gambling industry. What’s so special about this game?


The overall design of Royal spins is so successful that you are even mesmerised to watch someone else play. It is the type of game that combines both the classical and modern elements to give users a gaming experience rare to come across with any other game. The game’s symbols are a rhyming combination of fruits, numbers, bells, and crowns in HD.

What to expect in Royal Spins Free Slot
Designed by IGT, Royal Spins slot delivers everything you can expect from a modern online slot. The game plays out on a 5X3 reel platform that offers you a chance of winning up to 200X of the amount you wager. It also features bonus features such as free spins and scatters to help you win more.

The background features a stone wall, a constant reminder to players that they are playing just outside the royal castle. Similar to the original land-based slot, soft music with an occasional jingle for the wins plays in the background. The game also borrows the purple silk curtain from the brick and mortar version.

How to play Royal Spins
Some of the features of the game to take note of before you play the game include:

  • RTP: 96.03%
  • Low to medium variance
  • Progressive Slot
  • 5 pay lines
  • Available on mobile
  • Wins of up to 300X of your stake
  • No wild symbol

First, you will need to select a bet-line. With Royal Spins, you only need to activate only one of the pay lines but for better chances, it is better to cover all 5 lines. The wager per line ranges from $1 up to $200 averaging to a single platform bet of up to $1000. Such a wide betting range means that the game is suitable for both low and high rollers. After selecting the bet-line, all you have to do is click the spin button and watch as the symbols play out on the screen.

How to win on Royal Spins
There are quite a number of ways to win on Royal Spins slot. One of the most common ways to make a decent winning is by hitting a combo of red sevens which can pay up to 1000 units if you line up five of them on the pay line. Another way to win is through the crown symbols (the scatter symbol) that award you up to 200X your bet.

With Royal Spins, the winning combinations are considered from either side of the screen. This is quite unique because, with modern slots, combinations are only considered if they run from the left side of the screen.

Just like in the land-based version, the crowns which are the scatter symbol need not be on the same line to be helpful. You can get a good number of free spins depending on the number of crowns present on the platform after the spin. This is also called the bonus round which doesn’t use up any of your money. When crowns appear on reels 3, 4 or 5, for instance, you get 3, 5, and 10 free spins respectively. If 3 more crowns appear during the free spins session, the free spins will be re triggered instantly giving you 10 more spins. The crown scatter also multiplies your stake during normal play as follows:

  • One crown scatter: 2X the amount wagered
  • Two crown scatters: 6X the amount wagered
  • Three crown scatters: 12X the amount wagered
  • Four crown scatters: 48X the amount wagered
  • 5 crown scatters: 200 times multiplier on the amount wagered

You will also notice a cherry meter right below the reels. This is the jackpot meter. Hitting all cherries in a single line will fill up the meter meaning that you are in for a good treat. You get a progressive jackpot proportional to the amount you wagered. In addition, every red seven that appears on the platform also increases the jackpot’s prize. IGT deserves a tip of the hat for Placing the jackpot meter right at the bottom of the reels because it lets every player know that they are one step closer to winning the jackpot.

The rest of the symbols which are the bells, plums, and oranges also pay out a decent amount. Bells pay out up to 500 units, plum pays up to 100 units while the latter pays out 50 coins.

Verdict
The smooth cartoon graphics and simplicity of the Royal Spins free slot never seems to get old. This together with the scatter symbol that keeps you anticipating for good wins guarantees this slot from IGT an even greater future in the UK.
