The Last Kingdom Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

If you’re a fan of Viking-themed TV dramas, you’ll love this adaptation of the popular show The Last Kingdom. Created by Skywind, this slot features plenty of clips from the show plus the actual characters feature as symbols on the reels alongside lower valued A - 10 card symbols.

The creators are clearly fans of the show as they’ve embedded plenty of aspects from it into the game including the famous “SHIELD WALL!” bonus that helps you achieve one of the progressive jackpots on offer along with 5 initial free bonus spins. With 50 paylines, there are plenty of chances to win and winning combinations are found when you land 3+ matching symbols along a payline starting at the far left reel.

There are 2 Wild symbols to keep an eye out for, either of which can substitute for any other symbols excluding the Free Games Scatter or shield. These symbols both feature the word ‘Wild’ and the one that also depicts Uthred (the main character) expands downward and transforms adjacent dragon symbols into normal Wilds when it lands.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

The Last Kingdom has been given plenty of attention when it comes to the design to insure it pays proper homage to the show. The reels themselves take part on an abandoned battle ground with embers floating in the background and shields and spears lying forsaken in the ground.

The soundtrack features an atmospheric melody with the ghosts of Danes chanting a war tune in the background and is broken up with snippets from the original show to create a fully immersive experience.

Before the reels even land, you’ll be treated to a clip from the title sequence of the show, and there are plenty more clips to be unlocked as you spin.

Overall, the graphics and soundtrack both do a great job of pulling you into The Last Kingdom’s universe.

Dragon - 300

Bonus Features

There are a few bonus features in this slot, all paying respect to The Last Kingdom and featuring clips from the show.

Expanding Wilds

The first special feature is Uthred as a Wild. Whenever this symbol lands he will expand downwards and will also turn any dragon symbols adjacent to him into standard Wilds for even more winning potential.

Destiny Free Games

The Scatter in this slot looks like the show’s logo and says ‘Free Games’, conveniently. Land this symbol on reels 1, 3, and 5 and choose whether you wish to battle for the Saxons or the Danes to dictate the number of free spins and the multiplier you’ll receive.

Choose Saxons for 15x free spins with a 2x Multiplier or the Danes for 6x free spins with a 5x Multiplier.

Shield Wall Jackpot

Land 3+ shield symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger the Shield Wall Bonus starting with 5x free spins. During these spins, any time a shield lands on the reels (including the ones that triggered the feature) these will fall to the lowest available position and remain locked in place for the duration of the game.

Each shield awards a random cash prize up to 5x your stake and for every row you fill with shields you’ll be given an additional 3 free respins. Fill the entire screen with shields to win the Grand Jackpot.

Conclusion

We’re always suckers for a good slot made in the image of a TV show we loved, and The Last Kingdom is no exception. With all sorts of exciting bonus features plus clips from the show we were hooked from the moment we loaded the game. We would advise caution as this is a high volatility slot and the RTP is lower than we usually like to see… But as long as you keep an eye on your bankroll we think there’s plenty of fun and rewards to be had here. If you enjoyed The Last Kingdom, you might also want to check out Kingdom's Edge demo slot. We have both these games and many more free Skywind slots right here at Slots Temple.
