Design
The Kingdom’s Rise slot series if full of graphically rich games and Kingdom’s Rise: Sands of Fury is no exception. This game is visually brilliant with plenty of detail to create that fantasy world. The game is set in the middle of the desert with a stone kingdom featuring the slot reels. The game is covered in dusty oranges and dark blues to help set the scene. There are five characters about the reels including a crocodile-looking character, each of which is armed with weapons and look very dangerous.
The slot background is very static and doesn’t offer any sort of life to the game. In fact, there isn’t much going on in the way of exciting animations. The reels light up when you hit high paying symbols but that’s about it. The most visual movement comes during the re-spins and even that’s a little on the light side. When you land a win, the game presents the win amount is a somewhat simple font which kind of tones down the excitement. As you spin the reels you can enjoy a cinematic soundtrack that adds to the scene.
Although the game lacks in the animation department and doesn’t pop with excitement. The graphics are still top-notch and offer engaging gameplay.

Our Verdict
Kingdom’s Rise: Sands of Fury has plenty of action in the way of high paying symbols and in-game features, but the game doesn’t offer a lot when it comes to immersive animation. The graphics are top-notch but need a little more movement to create a fully immersive playing environment. It can get repetitive when you spin the reels. The main attraction is certainly the jackpot prizes. The game is still a good addition to the series but visually, it’s one of the least favoured.
