Excalibur: Gameplay

NetEnt takes the title of the game from the magical sword of King Arthur called Excalibur. It focuses on King Arthur and his subjects - Sir Lancelot, Guinevere, Merlin, Lady of the Lake, Mordred and Morgana as they venture into the Celtic Otherworld in search of the Holy Grail.

The golden chalice and Excalibur depict the symbols with the most value. You will have your bet multiplied by 500x your stake when you land five golden chalice symbols. It will be multiplied by 25 for four chalices, by five for three chalices and you will get your bet doubled by two chalices. Your reward will be 1,000x your wager when five Excalibur swords land on an active payline. The playing card 10 creates a winning combo with just a couple of symbols. Every other symbol requires three similar symbols to form a winning combo.

Talking about volatility, Excalibur slot machine is at the mid-range which in explanation means that wins come very frequently but in smaller amount. The best way to hit a bigger win is via the free spin bonus along with its inherent multipliers. Up to 1, 500 times is up for grabs.

The wild multiplier symbol is depicted by the Excalibur Sword. The wild is still steadfast in its function of replacing all standard symbols to complete a winning combo as well as multiply the wins by two times. The Excalibur sword lacks the capability to replace the golden Excalibur wild symbols and the scatter. When they land on an active payline, Multiple Excalibur wild symbols form winning combos but unfortunately, the payouts cannot be multiplied.

The scatter is represented by the gold chalice symbol and it does not need to fall on an active payline to create wins. Rather it has the capacity to complete wins when it lands anywhere on the game’s reels so long as the combination comprises of 2 gold chalice symbols. All you need to sum up the wins is to multiply the total number of coins bet by the gold chalice symbol combo payout.

When you have three gold chalice symbols or more landing on any position on the reels in the main game, the Free Spin feature will be triggered. Where your wins get tripled, you will get a number of free spins (three times multiplier). You will get a total of 10 free spins from three gold chalice symbols, 20 from four and 30 from five.

You can get extra free spin from three scatter symbols or more, though the inherent wins will not be tripled. While on the free spins, triggered payline rewards emanating from the golden wild symbol and the wild get multiplied by the free spins multiplier as well as the wild multiplier.

The golden Excalibur wild symbol can only land on the third reel and can substitute for all symbols bar the scatter. While it is performing the function of substitution, it can multiply your payouts by 4 times. Only a single golden wild multiplier will apply to the bet line payouts with both the golden wild symbol and the wild landing on a winning line.
