About King of Macedonia
King of Macedonia is a slot which was released in October 2017 by IGT, and is based on the tales and exploits of the legendary Alexander the Great. In life, Alexander ruled over a vast empire, and IGT have paid homage to that with a truly vast scope in this game. IGT’s King of Macedonia features 40 paylines spread over 5 reels, with players unable to alter them. They are free to alter their total bets, though, which range from 0.40 per spin, up to 1,200.00 per spin. Any lover of Alexander and history will appreciate the addition of Bucephalus on the reels of this game, although the generic Ancient Greek themed symbols are a little stereotypical and dull. King of Macedonia’s best icon is Alexander’s overbearing mother, Queen Olympia, which can see you win as much as 200 coins if 5 of her appear on any payline in the game.
Special Features
The King of Macedonia himself appear as a wild symbol in this slot machine game. As a wild, it can replace all other symbols with ones you need to win a payline, save for bonus icons. Wilds can only appear on the second and fourth reels in the slot but can cover two spots, and replace adjacent positions on the reel to the right. In this manner, it is possible to win with wilds on the second to fifth reels in total.
Bonus icons are pretty handy in this game. If they appear on the first reel without any wilds on the reels, an instant multiplier worth between 2x and 10x is added to your winnings.
Players who land the bonus icon on the first reel, as well as the King of Macedonia wilds on the reels, will trigger a free spins bonus round. It is also possible to trigger the feature with a gigantic wild (colossal wild) appearing – namely on the second and fourth reels at once.
Bonus Feature
King of Macedonia’s free spins bonus offers a total of 8 free spins. During this feature, players can pocket wins via colossal wilds, and as you can imagine, that can make all the difference between a decent win and a truly epic win. There have been many Ancient Greece themed slots before, and although this one doesn’t have overly brilliant graphics, it is the first major one to focus on Alexander the Great. That alone makes it worth a look.
