Top King Slot - Demo, Free Play, No Registration -

Top King review: introduction

This medieval themed slot makes a big first impression. You can expect the biggest payouts from the blue king, club king, heart king and diamond king. Next in value are the blue princess, green princess, and the heart and diamond princesses.

Knights, jesters and the usual playing card symbols bring up the rear. A jester’s hat doubles as the wild, but it is the bonus features that really make a lasting impression. The action-packed Ship Battle pitches you in a naval war, the Queen’s Gem bonus awards multipliers, and there are even free spins.

A special Lovebirds feature can top your free spin count up to as many as 20, so Top King is the slot of choice for anybody who likes their gameplay varied. There are 25 paylines, and both turbo and autospin can be enabled. 

You can play Top King and other Skywind slots in demo mode right here at Slots Temple.

Theme, graphics and design

Top King’s gorgeous fairy tale world is introduced through one of the most spectacular loading sequences you are likely to see. Players are whisked through a misty valley, between ancient towers and over winding rivers.

Things don’t let up much when the game is fully loaded. Top King has a truly unique artistic style that is somewhere between cartoon and watercolour. It shows medieval-style castles nestled in the heart of a verdant valley, birds soaring through the sky, and even a spin button styled as an animated sheep!

A soft piping tune accompanies the action. The music is distinctly medieval and conjures up images of court jesters and bards. Special mention goes to the game controls, which are cleverly designed to match the rest of the theme.

Top King RTP and variance

Top King’s RTP is below average at 94.44 per cent and the slot is high volatility; therefore, wins will be erratic and you are likely to encounter some winless spells. Given the low RTP and high volatility, it is a shame that the top win is just 500x.

How to play Top King

You could easily be forgiven for feeling confused when Top King first loads! This short guide will help:

1. All Top King’s game controls are styled to match its setting, so look for a bush at the bottom of the screen by the riverbank.
2. Start by pressing ‘i’ and reading through the different screens on bonus features, paylines and the paytable.
3. The bet controls also nestle amongst the foliage and are easy to use. Tap + and - to set your wager.
4. Turbo and autospin are on the other side of the river. Turbo will make the gameplay much quicker, while auto sets up to 99 fully automated spins.
5. Setting a sensible budget with responsible gambling in mind is always important and best done before you start spinning.
6. The spin button is a sheep, which you will see to the bottom-right, so give him a tap to start playing!

Bet & win sizes

Bets between 0.25 and 250 are available in Top King. These totals are easy to adjust using + and - on the bet controls. The highest single line win is 500x.

Top King bonus features

Top King has lots of fun bonus features available to lucky players:

- Ship Battle

This exciting game is Top King’s standout feature. To trigger it, you will need to land symbols equivalent to the opposing royal families: the two sets of kings. Manage this and you will be conveyed to the high seas, where two galleons face off against one another. Pick a card to reveal your side and keep picking to boost your winnings. If you have a higher win total than your opponent when the round ends, you get to keep the cash.

- Love free spins

Free spins are much more straightforward. Land two adjacent princes next to two adjacent princesses and you will win seven free games. A special 2x wild multiplier is added to the reels for the duration.

- Lovebirds extra spins

Every time you land adjacent prince and princess symbols during the base game, you will be awarded a lovebird. These are collected and will award you a random number of extra spins - up to 20 - when the free spins launch.

- Queen’s Gem bonus

When the diamond queen symbol appears on reels one or three, she steals a gem - and you must get it back! This involves picking cards until she is caught. The fewer cards you pick, the higher your eventual award. Three picks awards 20x, six gives you 11x and nine equals 8x.

Concluding thoughts

We love bonus features but must confess to getting a little bored with the same old games across countless slots. Top King totally reinvents the formula with the Ship Battle, Love free spins and the fantastically high-octane chase of the Queen’s Gem bonus; in fact, the whole slot feels fresh. We have never encountered artwork quite like this before, with the pastel visuals striking just the right balance between a cartoon and a watercolour painting. With some stellar music to boot, Top King is a joyous experience.

More chivalric action awaits in the Cash of Kingdoms slot, which is also available here at Slots Temple.
