The Kingdoms Rise Suite With 3 Slots from Playtech

Published: thu 14 nov 2019

Kingdoms Rise Suite

Kingdoms Rise is an innovative suite of games that was recently launched by development company Playtech. What makes this suite of games something extra special is not only the fact that each title takes place in a different land in the same shared fantasy world, but that it allows players to earn rewards in the form of tokens, and that those tokens can be used at a dedicated feature shop to unlock special features and bonus rounds.

The Kingdoms Rise suite also offers three different networked jackpots, giving players the chance to land a daily, capped or progressive jackpot.

Three Kingdom Rise games have already been released, and a fourth title is scheduled to be released before the end of the year. The three games to look out for right now are as follows:

Kingdoms Rise: Guardians of the Abyss

This is a five-reel game with 25 pay lines, and is set in a land of water, with most of the action taking place beneath the ocean. Symbols include four different gems, three fantasy weapons and three Guardians of the Abyss (names Odeon, Akali and Jax) as well as a wild symbol and a shell scatter symbol, which can be silver or gold.

Get three shell symbols on the reels at the same time and you will trigger a Guardians Bonus round. Here you will spin each shell in turn to determine which game feature you will be awarded, how many free spins you will get and what power will be active.

Each of the three different game features is associated with its own guardian and boasts different variables and rules. Odeon will swarm the reels to add his symbols to the reels on each spin, Akali will give you extra wilds on every spin, and Jax will add a multiplier to every wild that appears.

Kingdoms Rise: Sands of Fury

Whilst Guardians of the Abyss is set in a land of water, Kingdoms Rise: Sands of Fury takes place in a desert region of the fantasy world. This title has five reels and 20 pay lines, and symbols include four gems and five characters, all of which can also appear as wilds.

Each reel is presented as a stone pillar which is topped with a bust of one of the characters, and a cell immediately below each bust (above the three rows of the game itself) represents a feature. Get a character wild on the reel which is topped by the same character and you will activate the main Wild Fury feature. Here you can enjoy sticky wilds and respins, depending on the symbols shown in the feature cell at the time.

Kingdoms Rise: Forbidden Forest

Having explored the land of water and the desert region, you can venture into the Forbidden Forest. This is a five reel game which gives you 576 ways to win, and here the reels are presented against the backdrop of the mysterious forest region. Symbols used in this game include five gems, an owl scatter, a feather, forest creatures and three female warriors.

Get one, two or three owl symbols on the reels and you will be awarded two, four or twelve respins. You will receive two more respins every time you manage to get a feather on the third reel, and during this part of the game the owl symbol serves as a roaming wild which shifts its position on every respin.

Token Collection and Redemption

Whichever Kingdom Rise title you play, tokens will appear randomly on the reels. These are collected automatically and when you have collected sufficient tokens, you can head to the Kingdoms Rise shop to redeem them. Each game has its own special feature which can be unlocked, but tokens can be applied to any game in the suite, so if you collect a stack of tokens when playing one title, you can use them to unlock a feature in a different Kingdoms Rise game should you choose to do that.

The Power of Choice

‘Innovation is always at the forefront of Playtech’s games development process and, in Kingdoms Rise, we are proud to be delivering an industry-first concept for players and licensees alike,’ said James Frendo, which is Casino Director at Playtech. ‘The suite’s token system gives players the power of choice like never before – they decide what feature to play, when to play it and in which game. Some players may want to try a feature as soon as they have enough tokens; others may prefer to build up a balance and play several features at once. The key point is, the choice is theirs.’

He continued: ‘For players, the chance to “earn” extra in-game features and potentially significantly boost their win potential will be a key point of differentiation. The opportunity to gain more tokens, which can be redeemed in any Kingdoms Rise game, is a clear incentive to try all games in the suite. The success of multi-game brands such as Age of the Gods clearly demonstrates the value and potential of original content and, with its uniquely enhanced player experience, we’re confident that Kingdoms Rise will have the same strength of appeal.’

A Superb Suite for Fantasy Fans

The Kingdoms Rise suite of games is a superb creation that is sure to keep fantasy fans entertained for hours. Add in the ability to play on tablet and mobile as well as desktop and we can see this series being extremely popular.
