About The Last Kingdom
Ordinarily, small-scale casino software providers aren’t able to develop slots tied to major brands. Nobody seems to have told the Skywind Group that, though. Despite being a relative newbie to the industry, this software provider managed to land a deal with Netflix to develop their Saxon and Viking-themed period drama, The Last Kingdom as a slot. Unsurprisingly, much of the imagery which appears on the reels of this game comes directly from that show. Players should expect to see 5 reels and 50 paylines to bet on in this slot, with stakes costing between 0.50 and 250.00 a spin. That might seem somewhat costly, but players should note that this is a progressive jackpot slot game, which makes it all worth it.
Special Features
There are a few special features in the game to cover, so we’d best get on with it. First and foremost, there are wilds in the shape of Uhtred. He can expand downwards to occupy the rest of whichever reel he appears on. Moreover, if any jewellery icons are located adjacently to the symbols, he will transform those into wilds to boot. Known as the Uhtred Power bonus, this is all about forming winning clusters on the reels.
There are also two free spin bonuses to be had in this game. Players need to land free spin scatters on the first, third and fifth reels for this to kick into gear. They can then choose from two possible spin bonuses.
The first of these is a Saxon Free Games round, and it promises 15 free spins with 2x wild multipliers. The game removes two Danish Vikings from the reels during this feature. The second round is the Danes Free Games round, and two Saxons are removed from the reels this time. Players can net 6 free spins with 5x wilds multipliers in place during this feature.
Bonus Feature
Of course, the bonus feature that everybody wants to land is the one which could deliver a progressive jackpot. Known as the Shield Wall Jackpot Bonus, this requires three shield scatters to appear anywhere on the screen. Players will start with 5 bonus spins and any shields acquired will drop to the bottom of the reel they were on. Players who fill an entire reel with shields (new icons can be picked up on those spins) will win five more bonus spins. Fill three rows to land the Mini Jackpot and cover the screen with shields to win the Grand Jackpot.
