From Red Tiger Gaming Studios comes their own version of a classic. Introducing the Reel King Mega mobile slot.
The original Reel King slot has a devoted fan base – which is why we have many versions of the game, including the 4 Reel Kings video slot.
This is neither of those versions or even by the original creators of the game. Instead, Red Tiger studios have licensed the brand and game mechanics and created their own original version.
Except for the fact that it’s not actually all that original.
Reel King Mega is a 5 by 3 slot with 20 paylines, wild symbols, and a slot within a slot mini-game. You can win up to 500x your bet, making this a fairly low-risk casino game as it pays out little and often.
You have fruit symbols, 10, Jack, Queen and King and the Joker as a Wild. It looks, more or less, like a slightly more modern version of the original.
Which, we suppose, is the whole point. Red Tiger Gaming has licensed the slot mechanics from Novomatic and Astra Games in order to appeal to the fanbase.
You even get mini 3 reel slot machines play out in front of your eyes whenever the reels are covered in gold. It’s fun to watch, we have to admit.
Because the Reel King slot isn’t paying out and you want to try another similar version of the game?
Which, to be honest, isn’t without merit. We’ve played around with and the Agent Jane Blonde Returns slot when we fancied some low volatility spins on similar machines, testing which might be luckier for us.
But it has to be said that this Reel King Mega online slot doesn’t bring anything new. And maybe it doesn’t have to. Maybe it just has to give you that thrill of watching all those mini slot games play out.
Maybe it’s unfair to expect more from the provider that brought us the Laser Fruit game or the Mystery Reels Megaways slot, but we were hoping for a fresh take on an original, rather than just a simple copy.

The Reel King Feature: When all the reels are highlighted in yellow you will get between 1 to 5 mini slot machines to play on simultaneously. These 3 reel classic slots will keep spinning until no more wins are found, at which point you get to keep the total amount won during these mini-games.
Fans of the original or any of the best Reel King mobile slots by Astra Gaming and Novomatic will find that their favourite slot is in good hands with Red Tiger.
They haven't done anything revolutionary with the brand, but they have created a modern looking Reel King Mega slot on mobile with all the features you love.
You get to have your mini free spins games, as you spin up to 5 classic slot machines, trying to get as many wins as possible. You even have wilds and jumping wilds, for a little extra drama.
It's not a big win slot. But then the Reel King games are not designed that way. But it's easy to play, with classic familiar symbols that should appeal to casual gamers who also like the Reel King Potty slot or the Reel King Free Spin Frenzy game.
