Cluster Kingdom Slot Review

HOW TO PLAY CLUSTER KINGDOM

Cluster Kingdom works through a mechanic called Cluster Pays. You’re not trying to arrange winning lines like with classic reels and rows. Instead, your goal in is to create clusters of symbols. This means that identical symbols can be connected both vertically and horizontally anywhere on the 5×5. However, you need at least 5 matching symbols to secure a payout. Payouts are increased whenever you hit additional symbols beyond 5, as described on the game’s paytable.

Additionally, the base game heavily relies on tumbling symbols, otherwise known as reel cascades. Every winning symbol is eliminated from the game, making way for fresh symbols to fall from the top of the board and take their place. These newly arrived symbols have the potential to create further winning combinations. This (hopefully) results in strings of multiple winning combinations after a single spin. For a more comprehensive understanding of this feature, we recommend referring to our comprehensive guide on cascade features in slots.

Cluster Kingdom also features Wilds in every part of its gameplay. Wilds in this game appear with multipliers that increase the payout for any cluster the Wild is a part of. Additionally, wilds are sticky and remain in place during symbol cascades.

Sticky Redrop

The Sticky Redrop is a special feature that can trigger with any spin. It randomly selects one type of regular symbol in the game and makes it sticky, which means it sticks around between spins.

Then, all other (non-sticky) symbols are removed in what is essentially a free respin. If you land at least one more sticky symbol during the respin, you get another respin, and potentially more than that. This continues until you hit a respin with no additional sticky symbols. This typically results in a large payout thanks to a typically big combination of regular symbols.

You can use the Feature Buy option to guarantee a Sticky Redrop on the next spin for 10x your stake.

Special Symbols

There are three additional special symbols that can appear during any spin:

• The Princess feature places 1 to 4 wild symbols on the board. When the King symbol is visible, the Princess symbol moves one step towards it after each win and before a refill.
• The King feature picks the lowest pay symbol type next to the king and upgrades these symbols to the highest adjacent symbol.
• The Queen symbol rearranges vertically and horizontally adjacent symbols and moves towards the King, much like the Princess.

Bonus Rounds

The Cluster Kingdom slot game features several types of bonus rounds, which can all be purchased using the X-Iter feature buy button:

• The Bonus Round triggers whenever a King and Queen symbol end the round next to each other. You get 6 free respins and a persistent multiplier from Wilds which sticks around and applies to all wins until the end of the bonus round. Costs 100x your stake to trigger via Feature Buy.
• The Super Bonus Round is triggered by hitting a Kind, Queen, and Princess symbol all next to each other. Works the same as the Bonus Round except you get a persistent multiplier as soon as you trigger the round that increases with every spin and applies to all wins. Costs 500x your stake to trigger via Feature Buy.
• The Mini Bonus Round triggers whenever a King and Princess symbol end the round next to each other. Works the same as the Super Bonus Round but you only get 3 free spins instead of 6 and costs 50x your stake to activate using Feature Buy.

Additionally, the X-iter button can be used to activate Bonus Hunt spins which increase the chances of hitting a bonus round for 3x the bet per spin.
