Spartan King Review

The story of how just “300” brave Spartan warriors took on the whole of the Persian army has been told countless times. The blockbuster movie, 300, put this underdog battle back into the mass consciousness in the west, together with the comic book it was based upon. Plenty of developers have attempted to capitalize on the hype, and Spartan King is the latest effort from Pragmatic Play.

You can place bets between 20p and £100 per spin, and the high volatility certainly matches the brutality of the battlefield. Visually, the game looks somewhat generic, with an idyllic animated depiction of the Miditerranean Sea as the backdrop. You will certainly feel like an underdog battling the math model here, as well as Pragmatic Play’s ever-uncertain and exaggerated max win potential.

Spartan King slot Features

The base game comes with a Mega Shield Wild that you will also benefit from in the bonus round. You can also land a regular spartan warrior wild, and this will land on all reels except the first one. Both wild types can land on any given spin, and they will step in for all regular symbols like wilds usually do. The Spartan Warrior/King wild pays 20x for 5 on a payline.

The bonus round is pretty similar to the base game really, but with one important added benefit. You will be granted 8, 10 or 12 free spins respectively, when you land 3, 4 or 5 red flag scatters anywhere on the same spin. You will also get an initial scatter win of 1x, 5x or 20x your stake, depending on how many red flags you landed.

The 2x2 mega wild symbol will land more frequently during free spins, and now it comes with a random multiplier value of either 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x or 25x. You can land more than one 2x2 mega wild both in the base game and during the bonus round. However, if you land more than one 2x2 wild in the bonus round, the total multiplier will still be chosen from the same range.

The 200 Spins Spartan King slot Experience

The random multiplier wild boosts makes the bonus round quite unpredictable, and we certainly had a taste of this in our 200 spins test session.

You can skip to 0:45 into the highlights video if you don’t want to see the base game grind. We won decent amounts even with the lowest possible wild multiplier, and were quite happy with how it went.

Review Summary

If you’re into the legendary macho culture of ancient times, Spartan King might be something worth checking out. The hit movie, 300, branded this ancient civilization as the toughest ever in most young people’s minds, and plenty of slots have tried to capitalize on that fact. Pragmatic Play has centered this game around the 2x2 mega wild shield, which comes even more to its right during the bonus round.

It’s rare to land more than one such mega wild in the base game though, which is the best way to land bigger wins there really. The bonus round comes with a promise of possible payouts up to 7,480x your stake, but we take that with a grain of salt from this developer. We got only 2x multiplier wilds in our bonus round session, and although we had a decent time, there are better alternatives out there in this genre.

Pros

• 2x2 Mega Wild in the base game
• Bonus round with mega wild multipliers up to 25x
• High volatility and claimed max win potential of 7,480x

Cons

• Volatility might be too brutal for casual players
