Black Knight Slots

Black-KnightBlack Knight is one of the WMS slot machines, and it was designed with a theme inspired by Medieval Europe. The knight mentioned in the title is accompanied by members of the king’s court among the symbols, with jesters, the queen, the king and various objects of the time being all images you get to see and play with. It’s not an uncommon theme for a modern game, and the slots tend to look quite good when developers choose to create titles based on that time period.

The 5 reels and 30 lines of Black Knight might bring you top prizes of up to $10,000, or they can trigger features which include free spins, scatter symbols, expanding wilds and regular wilds.

Features of Black Knight

The features of Black Knight are what you would consider normal for a modern slot machine. You get a wild symbol from it, plus a scatter, free spins and expanding wilds.

The Black Knight is a main character in the story that this slot machine tells. As a wild, it can come in handy since it will give you more winning combinations, simply by being in the right place at the right time. It will not be helpful as much as in other slots though, since here it appears on three reels out of five (2nd, 3rd and 4th). It also can’t get its own combinations formed, since it can’t cover an entire payline.

There is one other symbol which you will find useful. It has the image of the Horse Chess piece on it, on a shield set against a purple background. A scatter symbol, it will award anywhere between 2x and 50x the total bet when enough of these symbols are present.

Free Games Feature

On top of the prizes I mentioned, having three or more scatters from left to right will also trigger the free spins feature. 7 free spins are given when this happens, and if you get a Black Knight wild on one of the three middle reels, then it will expand to cover the reel and will remain sticky until the feature is over. It’s a feature which can’t be triggered again.

Betting options and jackpots

The game will allow you to use the number of lines that you’re comfortable betting on, one coin being enough to place a bet on each line. The coins have their own betting range, between $0.01 and $5, so if you max out every option you have you can end up with total bets of up to $150.

The game pays best when the wild symbol gets involved, at which point you can win up to 2,000 coins from one combo, with a maximum value of $10,000.

Design and symbols

All the symbols which are used by the game are directly inspired by Medieval Europe. It might mean that you will see some characters from a king’s court on some of the symbols, while others will have sigil rings, crowns, scepters and so on. The design is pleasant to the eye and appropriate for this theme. Based on the design alone, it should be an enjoyable experience.

Is It Worth Playing?

I believe it’s the better Black Knight slot out of the two which were released so far. The game has only themed symbols as well, something which the second game from the series doesn’t do.

This Black Knight slot is offered by all online casinos with WMS software, playable either in practice or in real money mode.
