The Green Knight Slot

Basing a video slot around a medieval poem is certainly original, and it adds a certain depth and context to the gameplay. Sir Gawain, King Arthur’s nephew and one of the round table knights, takes center stage in this Play’n Go release called The Green Knight. Inspired by the late 14th-century poem, “Sir Gawain & The Green Knight,” this game offers a volatile and thrilling experience that will put your bravery to the test.

Gameplay and Features

In The Green Knight slot, the base game can be a challenging grind, but don’t let that deter you. Occasional multiplier wild wins will keep you motivated to continue spinning the reels. The visual design is reminiscent of its predecessor, The Sword and The Grail, delivering a strong and visually appealing experience.

The shield wild symbol acts as a substitute for all regular pay symbols, helping you form winning combinations. It can also land with multipliers ranging from 2x to an impressive 100x in the base game. As the highest paying symbol, landing five regular wilds on a payline awards you 100x your stake. Additionally, if you manage to land five of the 100x wilds on a payline, you can crack the game’s maximum win of 10,000x your stake.

To trigger the bonus round, you need to land three or more Green Knight scatter symbols on the reels. Once activated, you receive a scatter win of 2.5x, 5x, or 100x your stake, depending on the number of scatters landed. The bonus round grants you five free spins, with each spin guaranteeing at least one multiplier wild. The multiplier value increases progressively with each spin, starting at 2x and reaching an incredible 100x on the fifth spin.

Furthermore, if you land two or more Green Knight symbols on a bonus round spin, you unlock the Shield Spins feature. During Shield Spins, the regular bonus round is put on hold, and each spin is played with the current wild multiplier locked in place. As with the bonus round, you are guaranteed at least one multiplier wild per Shield Spin. Once the feature concludes, the regular bonus round resumes.
