King of Atlantis Slot Machine

Finding the lost city of Atlantis is the underwater Holy Grail of explorers and intrepid adventurers. There have been films, songs, TV shows and video games. Even being a setting for various comics and an inspiration for a Lego set. Are you up for that challenge?

The opportunity is made even sweeter in King of Atlantis by GameArt as there are Gigantic Wilds and Free Spins. And there is one big extra in this high-variance and super aquatic5 reel 40 payline slot game. You can win up to 25 million credits on one spin and the bonuses that come from it.

Golden Sea Water

As the page loads up a blue screen comes up with a picture of Poseidon holding his Trident. As the main page comes up, you’ll be struck by the imagery in the background. This is no deep and dark setting. It really is bright. There are gold coins all over the sea bed, with lights shining from above and beaming down in golden rays.

Rather intriguingly there isn’t any music to go with the images. But there’s more than enough going on with the background and the reels themselves. Fitting with the underwater heaven vibe, there are no boundaries between the 25 symbols, and some of the buttons are on the top left with other betting details at the bottom.

The Sea’s The Limit

One of the main things is how incredible the betting possibilities are. While the betting lines are fixed at 40, this is a high-end game befitting of the term underwater paradise. This is no low key, low prize game. At the bottom of the screen is the paytable, the value of the Wilds, Spin button and Total Bet. With Total Bet you really are spoiled for choice. The least amount is 90. It gets really interesting as the maximum is 180,000. Play big and win bigger.With this in mind, you can change the Wilds too, with 3 different options available.

It might seem unusual for a mermaid to be top when there are all kinds of gems and jewellery to be had, but that’s a quirk of the game. The dolphin, next most valuable, is as friendly looking as can be, with the other 6 symbols being relative to the rich, secret world from the past. The payout is up to 96.14%

A Poseidon Adventure

The Wildcard is a free hair flowing Poseidon. It doesn’t offer any credits but replaces everything except the Bonus symbol. The symbol appears on reels 2 and 4 but each also expand one reel to the right. 2 reels aren’t enough to hold in this god of the sea. And neither is 1 option when it comes to Gigantic Wilds. You can choose either 20, 40 or 60 of them, with each change coming with a powerful harp sound. As there are so many credit options for betting you’ll have to pay attention to how much each change is worth.

There may not be a Bonus Game, Gamble Feature or a Scatter, but there are Free Spins available. If you get the Bonus symbol of a trident, which appears on the first reel, along with the Poseidon card, you get 8 Free Spins. They can’t be retriggered during the extra spins, but the Wilds that accessed them stay in place. Also worth noting is that when playing the maximum 60 Wilds, you can get 2 reels full of Wilds, meaning a big credit prize and hearing Poseidon talk.

Atlantis Delights

While there are countless games set underwater, many of these focus on fishermen, marine life, beach fun or buried treasure. While there are others with the Atlantis theme, King of Atlantis does have its own identity through its gameplay. It doesn’t focus on Scatters as much as Queen of Atlantis or Lost Secrets of Atlantis, while Jewels of Atlantis features smaller Bonus games. Like those games though, it does retain the sense of mystery of this hidden world.

Lots to be Won

There may be no Bonus Games, Scatters or a Jackpot prize, but this game does have its own style of gameplay and there’s plenty of money to be won. The lack of an Auto Play is a shame, but this is a fun game which isn’t complicated to play, has one of the prettiest backgrounds you’ll see and certainly has an adventurous Wildcard system.
