Treasure Kingdom Slot Machine
Remember those Arcade Games of the 90s? Remember playing Prince of Persia, Wolfenstein and Dave on Windows 98? Well, if you do, you have pretty much everything it will take to fully immerse yourself and enjoy Treasure Kingdom – a video slot by Casino Technology.
In being very – really, very – simple, Treasure Kingdom allows you to enjoy the most basic appeal of a slot – the thrill and the rush. There are no heavy graphics to distract you and no funky features to confuse you. It’s all about basic slot play where your luck will be put through a grinder to see if you come out on top. And take our word for it – it’s a great feeling when you do come out on top!
A Trip Back In Time
As we mentioned earlier in passing, playing Treasure Kingdom is like rolling back a bunch of years to end up in the 90’s where internet was a luxury and smartphones were still unheard of.
Crass design and chunky bits of graphics ensure that Treasure Kingdom gets to represent that era quite nicely. Add to it repetitive and somewhat annoying sound effects, and you have a complete package of powerful nostalgia potion right on your hands. Not bad, we say!
Playing The Player
Arcade games were fabulously addictive, and were often known to ‘play’ the player by crashing in the middle of a high-scoring round. While Treasure Kingdom, being an online slot for real money, doesn’t need to do that, it certainly does its best to play the players by offering some no-nonsense gameplay and decently generous payouts.
For starters, let us break it to you that there is no high-handedness in the realm of Treasure Kingdom. Five simple reels and 9 fixed paylines are all you have to showcase your fortune at, and you better make the best use of them!
While 9 paylines were the norm for the early video slots, we would surely have loved to see Treasure Kingdom sport more than 9 paylines, especially when we consider that it was released in 2014.
A Little Downer, Now
All good, so far. But when you look at the symbols of this slot, you cannot help but feel a little let down. There is some serious lack of imagination here, as every symbol used is quite generic to the whole idea of slot machines.
Cards, diamonds, hearts, daggers and shields form the legion of regular symbols that will be your bread and butter, if you were to recover your wagers. The heart pays out the warmest and largest bounty of 1,000 coins, while shields and daggers bring to you a stash of 500 coins for five-of-their-kind combos.
But what are these coins worth? Let’s find out…
Curious Case Of Coins Of Treasure Kingdom
The case of coins of Treasure Kingdom is quite curious. Although the slot touts and promise you the earth, the monetary value of these coins is a touch underwhelming. Being able to wager only one coin per line, we would have hoped to see the upper cap a little higher than 50 cents.
In short, for any given spin, the maximum you can put at stake to turn around some profits is $4.50. So, the highest base game jackpot of 1,000 coins (for heart symbols) will amount to $450.
But Hold It, Good Sirs! It’s Getting Sunnier!
It surely gets sunnier in Treasure Kingdom once you care to look past the regular symbols. For starters, there is the luxury of having a wild symbol (a golden chalice) that can – for five appearances anywhere on the screen – add a jaw-stretching, brain-scratching sum of 10,000 coins to your balance!
If you haven’t caught your breath yet, don’t even try – because it’s about time we tell you have this wild also carries a flat-out 2x multiplier for ALL of your base game winnings.
To make your merry-making a dash merrier, we also have a scatter symbol (a castle) on hand. For five-on-five combination of it, you will receive a no-holds-barred mini-jackpot of 4,500 coins, not to mention the tripling of your winnings. As if that wasn’t enough, all you have to do to get 10 free spins is land up with 3 or more scatters across the screen!
A Treasure That Grows
Treasure Kingdom is a late bloomer. It starts out modestly, but soon enough, blossoms into something truly magnificent. Forget the lack of imagination, it’s the high-payouts through wild and scatter that matter to us! Given this is fully mobile compatible, for a wager of as little as $4.50, if we can stand to wind down hundreds of dollars, we think we are game for it!
