Queen of the Castle is a medieval themed slot from NextGen Gaming which is playable from 40p to £20 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.

With five-reels, and 576 ways to win, Queen of the Castle is a modern feeling slot with an age-old theme, and one that has been used many times for slot games, leaving this NextGen release needing to really stand out in order to get noticed amongst the crowd of similar slots.

About the slot

The cartoon style graphics and animations of Queen of the Castle let you know immediately that this is not a slot that takes itself too seriously.

The reel set appears on the entrance to an imposing castle, with gems, thrones, the Queen’s banners, and more playing the high value symbols, while the lower values are represented by playing card symbols.

A nice soundtrack plays in the background to give the slot a bit more life. There’s nothing exceptional here, but it’s an attractive slot with a relaxing tone.

Gameplay

The Queen herself plays the part of the wild symbol and substitutes for anything but the bonus symbol and the crown symbol to help with winning combinations.

The Mystery Red Chest which appears on reel one, which can be nudged to fill the whole reel, triggers the Red Mystery Chest Reveal feature, where all lower value symbols turn into higher values.

Land three bonus symbols and you’ll trigger the Free Spins feature, as well as 120x your stake. 14 spins greet you here, with a tower meter that can add more spins and more paylines to the reels if you fill it up.

A playful slot with big wins available, especially in the free spins feature, NextGen have created a fun and exciting slot with Queen of the Castle.
