With the Knights of Fortune slot, Spearhead Studious takes us back to Medieval times to fight for glory and cash among the bravest noble warriors. Challenge your enemies with exciting collection mechanics and Cascading Wins and make your way to the Free Spins with a payout potential of nearly 16,000x the bet.

Knights of Fortune has a very cool collection mechanic that builds tension up to the point that you reach the bonus feature. Get there quickly and you may not have many wilds and a lower win multiplier but take a little longer and the pay-off can be so much greater.Kevin CortiGame Development Director, Spearhead Studios

Knights of Fortune - Slot Outlook

Once you load in, Knights of Fortune will transport you to a Medieval village, set in the backdrop of a 5x3 reel set with 243 ways to play. The game actually immerses you greatly into the action with its vibrant design and stunning special effects, making you feel like a true knight. The soundtrack is also on spot, as you play along to an epic medieval soundtrack that adds a final touch to the general ambiance.

Besides equipping your broadsword and a shield, you'll need from $0.5 to $100 to participate in the action. Knights of Fortune is a highly volatile game, so you should adjust your bets wiser to not lose your bankroll too fast. You should get your returns fairly often though as the slot boasts an RTP of 96.2%, which is slightly above the average.

Heading over to the paytable reveals us 12 regular symbols that are split into highs and lows. On the lower side, the pay symbols are made up of classic royals from A to 9. Next are four premium symbols, including in ascending order gauntlets, crossed axes, and green and blue knights. To score a win, you'll need to land at least 3 symbols adjacently on a single line starting from the leftmost reel, and 5-of-a-kind wins award from 0.6x to 4.4x the stake.

Knights of Fortune - Bonus Features

The Knights of Fortune slot relies heavily on the Free Spins feature, which is the key to the success here, as most wins come via the bonus. Indeed, there's not too much to do in the base game, aside from collecting boosters that are, once again, available in the free games. Anyway, you would like the bonus to trigger for as long as possible until you collect decent boosters.

Central to the gameplay both in the base and the bonus games is the Cascading Wins feature that allows you to land multiple winning combinations on a single spin. All winning symbols get removed from the grid whenever you hit a win, and new ones tumble down from above filling vacant spaces. The cascades continue until there aren't any new winning combos in view.

To the left of the reels are sitting 3 collection meters, indicating your progress on collecting boosters and triggering the Free Spins feature. Each is divided into 5 segments, and whenever a needed symbol drops on the reels, it gets collected and contributes to the corresponding meter above.

• Wild Meter - Any Wild symbol landing in view during the base game increases contributes to the meter, and collecting 5 will increase the number of guaranteed Wilds for the Free Spins by +1, up to 80 instances.
• Multiplier Meter - Each winning blue and green knight symbols contribute to the meter, and collecting 5 increases the total Multiplier for the Free Spins by +1x, no limits.
• Free Spins Meter - All low-paying symbols may land on the reels with a golden shield background, and those symbols contribute to the free spins counter. You'll need to complete the meter 5 times to gain access to the bonus.

Keep in mind that the meters cannot be increased during the Free Spins, and the progress is saved for each bet level separately.

Once triggered, players will receive 8 Free Spins. The accumulated Multiplier will apply to all wins during the bonus game, and collected Wilds are randomly unleashed at the beginning of each spin.

There's also a Buy Bonus option included, allowing players to skip the less exciting part and get straight to the action. That will give 8 spins with 13-14 guaranteed Wilds and a 3x Multiplier for the cost of 100x the current bet. Accessing Free Spins via the Buy Bonus feature does not reset the meters. However, the Buy feature is restricted in particular markets due to legal regulations.

Knights of Fortune - Slot Verdict

That's definitely a huge release from Spearhead Studios, where the devs managed to deliver a lovely mix of top-notch design, rewarding extras, and solid stats. With fun features and potential prizes of nearly 16,000x the stake, the Knights of Fortune slot is likely to get to the top of players' favorite, not no mention the Medieval theme that's ever-popular among players all over the globe.

It is a quite unique feeling watching the meters fill up, wondering what will happen and asking, ‘How good can it be?’ We worked very hard on ‘Knights’ to bring something novel to the slots-playing community, and I’m confident players will enjoy it.
