Lancelot is a game that comes from WMS and which is themed around one of the most popular characters from the story of King Arthur and Camelot. Lancelot was one of the Knights of the Round Table, and a guy who had a bit of a love story going on with the queen, with Guinevere. The game is inspired not just by this love story, but also by the rest of the legend, having on the reels symbols that include Merlin, Excalibur, Camelot and others.
Once Lancelot has loaded, the 5 reels will be populated with 40 paylines and as features you will be given stacked wilds and they act as scatters as well, not to mention as triggers of the free spins and their multipliers. A $2,500 jackpot awaits you inside.
Features of Lancelot
A couple of wild symbols are part of the slot, and they’re both the kind that come in stacked. The game uses them to trigger the free spins as well, and multipliers are provided when this happens.
The two heroes of our story, Lancelot and Guinevere, are used as stacked wilds which have the capacity of occupying the entire reel when they’re fully visible. Since they’re stacked, not expanding, they can just as well occupy a single spot on the reel, if you get only the top or the bottom of the icon. No matter how much of the wild you see, this symbol has the ability to replace any other icon in the game, no exceptions. Wilds also combine to pay the best prizes of the slot, up to 500 coins with only matching wilds, or 250 coins when both types mix in a combo.
Free Games Feature
The two wilds are used to trigger the free spins as well. You need these symbols on adjacent reels, going from left to the right. They can be all of the same type, or they can be mixed wilds.
You receive 5 free spins for two wilds arranged as specified above, 10 spins for three wilds, 20 for four and 50 spins for all five reels having them. The prizes you obtain during the free spins are all doubled in value. You can retrigger the free spins in the same way as you obtained them, with 2+ wilds.
Betting options and jackpots
You have no option to activate fewer lines, you always play with 40, so naturally you have to use 40 coins for the bet. The value of the coins is under your control however, and it goes from $0.01 to $5, which allows for a betting range between $0.40 and $200.
If the slot forms on a line its best combo, you get paid 500 coins, or up to $2,500. Thanks to the stacked symbols, chances are that you will get more than one jackpot at the same time.
Design and symbols
One of the good things about this slot would be the quality of its design. You don’t get any random poker cards showing up, only images of armor, knights, Camelot or the few characters from the legends of King Arthur that are relevant to this love story. There are a couple of stacked symbols also showing up. All the symbols are excellently designed and it’s a pleasure to watch them.
Symbols: Lancelot (wild, 500 coins), Guinevere (wild, 500 coins), Mixed Wilds (250 coins), Merlin (150 coins), Knight (125 coins), Excalibur (100 coins), Camelot (100 coins), Crown (100 coins), Two Crowns (100 coins), Helmet (100 coins), Shield (100 coins), Flowers (100 coins) and Acorns (100 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
The love story between Guinevere and Lancelot hasn’t had this much attention from slot developers before, even though the Camelot theme has been used plenty of times before. It also has a good design and a couple of stacked wilds that I’m a fan of. Even with the small prizes, I’d still recommend it.
You will find Lancelot at any online casino which chooses to use software from WMS, playable either for free or for real money.
