King's Mask Eclipse of Gods: Slot Overview

When some people go on holiday or have a day off, it seems they'd prefer to try something they've never done before, go somewhere new, or avoid repeating the same sort of experiences they've had in the past. Others have their spot, and their spot is their spot, and that is it for eternity, like a beloved, well-worn part of the sofa. Software developer Play'n GO exhibits these latter traits with its obsession with Ancient Egypt. As if there weren't enough already, tada, here is another game that takes place in the ancient, exotic land. King's Mask Eclipse of Gods is the name, and it's a spin-off from an earlier slot, King's Mask, this time focusing much of its power through 3 different wild symbol capabilities, respins, and free spins.

If you've fired up Play'n GO Egyptian slots in the past, you may well have formed certain expectations over how future ones will appear. King's Mask Eclipse of Gods is a classic example that combines a slightly retro look with decent-quality visual representations of the culture. There's nothing out of the norm here, really; it's all pyramids, statues and so on, but nothing here is going to ruin your eyeballs for looking.

The retro touch is provided mainly by the look of the gaming grid, which dimensionally consists of 5-reels, 3-rows, and 20 paylines. Out the back, maybe skulking around that pyramid is a highly volatile math model constructed in several RTP configurations. The highest return value is 96.29%, and when choosing a stake, the options are 20 c to £/€100.

Eleven pay symbols land throughout the game, including 9-A card rank lows, plus an Ankh, leaf, Sobek, Anubis, and Horus as the highs. Winning combinations made up of 5 identical royals gets you 5-6.25 times your stake, or 12.5-37.5 times the stake for a line of 5 matching high pays. Wilds land on all reels and pay a chunky 500x for a 5 wild winning line. Otherwise, wilds are able to substitute for all of the regular pay symbols.

King's Mask Eclipse of Gods: Slot Features

For extras, King's Mask Eclipse of Gods has random wild features and respins in the base game, as well as free spins round where players pick the wild feature they would like to be active.

Wild Features

Wild features have a chance of activating in the base game during an eclipse. The particular wild feature activated is random, and players are unable to influence which will trigger - unlike in free spins. The base game wild feature lasts for 3 respins, whichever feature triggers:

  • Multiplier Wilds - all wins are multiplied by x2. Multiplier values are not additive or cumulative.
  • Sticky Wilds - remains on the reels until the end of the feature.
  • Walking Wilds - remain for the next spin and move 1 reel to the right on each new respin. Walking Wilds move off the reels from the rightmost reel.

Free Spins

Free spins are triggered by landing 3 or more scatters on the reels. Hitting 4 scatters also awards 20x the bet, or triggering the round with 5 scatters awards 100x the bet. Players choose which wild feature they would like to play. The initial number awarded is 10 free spins, no matter which feature is selected.

King's Mask Eclipse of Gods: Slot Verdict

Never mind phoning; given Play'n GO's extensive experience designing Ancient Egypt slots, it seemed as if the team texted King's Mask Eclipse of Gods in. It was so middling in so many ways. The outer wrapper is as good a place to start as any, and whilst the artwork is of a decent standard, compared to a lot of the competition, by Play'n GO standards, King's Mask Eclipse of Gods' looks are totally par for the course average. There's little that stands out, little the studio hasn't really shoved in front of players' eyes in the past. Pretty enough, arguably more engaging than King's Mask visually, but disappointing in some ways as well.

The same assessment applies to King's Mask Eclipse of Gods' features, as well. There is more variety here than in the previous game, though axing the win multiplier from the free spins round might be perceived by some gamblers as a blow. Respins with a wild feature in the base game, okay, free spins with a chosen wild feature, not bad, certainly not terrible. Yet, the multiplier is limited in many cases because it's a straight x2, no matter how many of them you get. The sticky wilds could be achingly rare, to the point that just one landed in a bonus round, and the walking wilds? Shrugs.

However, hold on to your hats because one of King's Mask Eclipse of Gods' eye-opening aspects is its max win figure of 20,000 times the bet, displayed both on the info screen and as a flashed-up message below the reels. This is double what is available in King's Mask. Trying to visualise that figure being achieved involved mental images of smashing out masses of multiplied 5-wild winning lines or absolutely drenching the reels in sticky wilds during a hosed-out free spins round. Perhaps a lucky player, somewhere out there, in the real world, will strike King's Mask Eclipse of Gods on its best day, and we'll be able to see just how it happens - though given how rare those sorts of mega wins from Play'n GO seem to be, don't hold your breath.

Without the big number, King's Mask Eclipse of Gods is a pretty average game. Even factoring in the massive potential, it wasn't a slot that jump-started much excitement, offering certain plusses and minuses on the previous release.

Fair

When ignoring the massive max win, King’s Mask Eclipse of Gods is one of Play’n GO’s less interesting Ancient Egypt slots.
