Royal Rush Slot
Throw on your armor and sharpen your sword as Royal Rush by Electric Elephant transports you to a medieval kingdom where you’ll brave treacherous weather conditions. Roaring thunder will shake the king’s castle grounds and bolts of lightning will illuminate the dark sky as the sovereign hopes to become a knight in shining armor – letting you experience a storm of big wins.
You see, the wealthy royal is having a horrid time trying to fend off flights of fire-breathing dragons hell-bent on entering the castle to steal his rich profusion of treasures. With his beautiful daughter having been left feeling petrified at the threat of the winged creatures, he’s roped you into joining his few armored knights who remain unshaken by the perilous task facing them: to slay the dragons once and for all.
Powered by the Leander Games platform and exclusively available to play for real money at PokerStars Casino, Royal Rush boasts an epic soundscape that sets the tone with slashing sounds of swords echoing out every time you click to spin the reels. Like all casino slot machines developed by UK-based Electric Elephant, it’s been developed using HTML5 with high-definition graphics that look incredible whether you play on desktop, tablet or mobile. Plus, it’s been loaded with exciting bonus features to lure you into the perilous battle against the dragons, such as wild symbols, free spins that can be retriggered, and a whopping total of four progressive jackpots!
Medieval Money
Your quest for a mountain of medieval money playing will cost you if you’d like the king to reward you with real cash. But don’t worry, it’s not going to cost you an arm or a leg – unless the dragons sink their teeth into you!
Royal Rush is a 5-reeled video slot with three rows of symbols that you’ll be hoping to match across ten fixed paylines. There are ten different betting options to choose from. Our opportunity to become the king’s right-hand man begins with a low limit of 0.25 credits, while the max bet is unlikely to excite high limit players being a paltry 5.00 credits per spin.
King-Sized Prizes
A total of thirteen symbols feature on the pay table of this free Royal Rush slots game, consisting of eleven regular and two special symbols. You’ll be hoping to see lots of lightning bolts flashing across the reels, as these indicate winning paylines. Unfortunately, the character animations are basic.
Poker suits represent the least valuable symbols of all, with rewards of up to 10x your stake on offer for lining up sets of diamonds, clubs, hearts or spades. Gathering up pairs of swords or axes and wooden shields will earn you greater rewards of up to 12x your stake.
The king has an abundance of gold crowns dotted around his large castle. You’ll earn up to 24x your stake for locating sets of them, with the same rewards on offer for rounding up his armored knights. Dragons flying onto the reels will see you secure up to 40x your stake, but in this case you’ll witness them let out a small yawn rather than spit fire – so they certainly won’t have you quaking in your boots. A maximum of 80x your stake can be secured if the king or princess pop up to show gratitude for your coming to their rescue.
In terms of the special symbols, you can learn all about their powers below.
Features Fit for Royals
Initially, we expected the king to represent the wild symbol as a show of power. But it’s a wooden shield with the word “wild” imprinted you’ll need to look out for to take advantage of its substituting capabilities. Not only do these wooden shields substitute for every symbol aside from the bonus, but all wins they are involved in will be doubled in value.
Speaking of bonus symbols, these are represented by the PokerStars symbol decorated with olive leaves. So, what’s so great about them? we hear you ask. Well, landing three or more of them during the same spin sees the king grant you a whopping 18 free spins that can be retriggered, plus he’ll fill your pockets with up to 80x your stake before they even begin.
Finally we move onto the four progressive jackpots, which are probably the main reason why you have an interest in helping the king slay the dragons. These range in value in order of Micro, Mini, Major, and the potentially life-changing Mega jackpots – with access to the jackpot round being key to winning one of them. To do that, you’ll need to land three jackpot symbols during the same spin to light a castle torch, with entry granted once you’ve lit three of them.
Wait a minute. We said there were only two special symbols, right? Yes, these jackpot symbols are completely random and appear as flames on the other symbols. Be warned, though: you’ll have to endure plenty of teases. While two of them appear at an incredible frequency, the third will prove mightily elusive!
Only the Brave Dare Play
It’s not because the dragons are scary or anything, but because the paltry return-to-player percentage of 86.87% could see your wallet take a bigger bashing than those winged creatures. Granted, there are four progressive jackpots on offer which explain this figure, but it’s going to make it too volatile for many of you to even consider playing.
Still, Royal Rush is by far the best Electric Elephant slot machine released to date – thanks to its being mobile-optimized, the overall quality of its graphics and sound effects, and the variety of bonus features included.
