Black Knight Slot Review

WMS originally made a land-based slot called Black Knight that appeared in casinos around the world and inspired a sequel. This online version from Barcrest has obvious similarities. It’s a 5-reel game with 30 paylines. In addition to trying to find winning symbols, you may also have the opportunity to trigger a free spins bonus round with wilds that can both expand and become sticky.

Ancient Legends

Long before Monty Python depicted a Black Knight who dismissed his dismemberment as “Only a flesh wound!” or Marvel decided to make its own version as a comic book hero, there were legends about a figure called the Black Knight. He appeared in Arthurian mythology, lent his title to more than one Medieval warrior, and recurs throughout history and literature as a mysterious, dangerous, and sometimes villainous character who does not wear the customary coat of arms to identify himself. Such an iconic legend would almost inevitably start appearing in slots.

A Medieval Court

The Black Knight slot is about more than just its title character. It’s set in a Medieval court, and like other period slots, it features kings, queens, and royal treasures. You’re practically viewing the British crown jewels, including orb, sceptre, and crown. Keep a look out for the jester. The symbols all appear against a yellowish brown background like they’re part of a Medieval manuscript, the opposite of a shiny, modern theme but things do come to life when you find winning symbols and trigger the animations.

Black Knight RTP and Variance

The usual RTP of the Black Knight slot is 96% when your bet is above £2 & 94% when your bet is below £2. The variance is medium.

How to Win at Black Knight

The goal is to line up at least 3 matching symbols across the 5 reels within 30 paylines. Scatter symbols can trigger bonus features even if not on a payline, and wilds can substitute other symbols to complete a line.

Top Wins

  • No generic card or gem symbols, only themed ones.

  • Lower-value symbols include items, with the crown as mid-tier.

  • High-value symbols feature characters, with a 10x win multiplier for 3 sceptres, rings, or maps.

  • 5 kings or 5 scatters grant a 500x win multiplier.

  • The Black Knight wild completes lines but doesn’t pay by itself.

FAQs

Who is the Black Knight in the Black Knight slot?

He’s the main character, a prominent feature of the setting and theme inspired by the legendary figure found in Arthurian mythology and other Medieval tales. He comes with the King, Queen, Jester and various objects from Medieval courtly life. As a symbol, the Black Knight serves as the wild.

What can the wild do in the Black Knight slot?

Like in most slots, the main purpose of the wild symbol is to act as a substitute. If you have matching symbols in all but one position on a payline, a wild that lands in the gap will act like it’s just another of those regular symbols so you can collect a win. That’s in the base game, but it also has some additional bonus features that allow it to expand and become sticky.

Does the Black Knight slot have a free spins bonus round?

It does, and it's triggered by the scatter symbol. Find 3 or 4 scatters and you’ll be awarded 7 or 12 free spins respectively. It’s during free spins that wilds can expand. They grow to cover the entire reel and become sticky, which means they remain in place as the feature continues.
