King of Ghosts

Reviewed by Charlie Vogelsang Last updated:

There's an ancient Chinese proverb that talks about the King of Ghosts. Apparently, he made himself a home away in the mountains just outside of China and balances his life amongst the living and the dead. He protects wandering souls and even grants them glorious fortunes if the timing is right.

Endorphina is giving players the chance to unlock this proverb in King of Ghosts. Playing on 5-reels with 20 paylines, this oriental slot contains free spins, multipliers and wilds leading to huge wins of up to 25,000x the stake.

King of Ghosts Review

In Chinese mythology, Zhong Kui is the vanquisher of ghosts and evil beings protecting humans. Endorphina is taking players to Zhong Kui in King of Ghosts.

This oriental slot plays on 5-reels with 20 paylines and takes players back to Ancient China to find fortune from Zhong Kui. Lucky players that manage to convince him will uncover free spins and wins of up to 25,000x the stake.

Design

The background of this slot looks like an Ancient Chinese painting as it's absolutely breathtaking. There are bright and vibrant colours as well as stunning Chinese architecture in the distance. There are even little details of animations with the bushes blowing and birds flying over the reels.

Now, the reels themself look like a scroll with cloud designs on. On the reels, players will find fans, gold coins, Chinese swords, gold pendants and gold hats. Zhong Kui is the wild in this slot and is a beefy-looking man with a prominent beard. He doesn't look too scary and is exactly as you'd expect.

The music of this slot is beautiful to hear with wind instruments paired with mandolins to create something that sounds authentic. The ambient noises of birds and animals in the distance enhances this authenticity.

Gameplay

King of Ghosts is simple in terms of the gameplay, but that is definitely not a bad thing. The main feature is the free spins round which is certainly a sight to behold and can lead to the biggest moments.

Anything the player will need can be found at the bottom of the screen with the spin button and the bet level button. There is a drop-down menu on the left side with the paytable and the sound settings.

Win Potential

There is no denying that King of Ghosts has one of the best win potentials that we have seen from Endorphina. It all starts off strong with high volatility and an RTP of 96.01% which is over the average standard.

The best part about King of Ghosts is the huge maximum win of 25,000x the stake that can be achieved through the free spins round with the multiplier and the expanding symbols.

Our Verdict

There are not many oriental slots that focus on Zhong Kui but King of Ghosts does it brilliantly. Ultimately, the visuals are stunning and the gameplay is enticing to play.

The slot only gets better with the win potential making it one of the best Endorphina slots yet. If you love online slots, then there is no reason not to give King of Ghosts a spin.
