There’s been much talk about another excellent innovation implemented by NetEntertainment in their new release: “Kings of Chicago”. This software house has always been dedicated to bringing a breath of fresh air into its games, and this time is no different. This time, they decided to create a unique blend, and become pioneers in bringing together what many thought was impossible – slots and classic poker. You still think this cannot be? Then stay on the page and find out more!

At first, “Kings of Chicago” may seem a bit confusing, especially if you’re used to regular video slots and their rules. However, just a couple of spins, and you’ll get its rules. The combinations are the same as in poker (full house, three/four/five of a kind, straight, flush, etc.), and they are far easier to make than in regular slots, thanks to the fact that they pay anywhere along a payline, not only left to right or vice versa. In addition, all symbols are playing cards, with picture symbols styled in line with the name of the game – early 20th century mafia, with kings being the mafia dons. Apart from the regular symbols, there are also special roles for some of the cards – those of wild and scatter symbols, which can help you form more winning combinations with doubled prizes, or trigger free spins.

As for the bet amounts, this five “reel” slot (there are no classic reels, but rather rows of cards) offers quite a decent variety. Namely, the slot is played on five paylines, and it enables you to pick one of various coin denominations that range from $0.01 to $1, allowing you to place up to 10 coins per payline in order to provide a bigger selection that will satisfy all playing tastes.

Special Features:

When it comes to the special features of this unusual and refreshing slot, although it may seem like it’s a difficult task to introduce some, the NetEnt designers managed to pull it off and provide us with a substitute, scatters, free spins and multipliers. When it comes to the ever-so-popular wild, it is presented in shape of a joker card, which will replace all other symbols in order to form a winning combination. Its advantage is that it appears very often and that the prizes formed with its help are doubled, which may result in some significant wins. As for the scatter symbol, it is awarded randomly, so any card at any point may get the value of a scatter symbol. Three, four or five scatters anywhere will trigger a round of 10, 15, or 30 free deals (spins), respectively. During the free deals, all wins will be doubled, and the best thing of all is that addition free deals can be triggered if another 3 or more scatters appear during the active round.

When we first look at “Kings of Chicago”, we may think it’s nothing special. However, it takes playing to get to love it. Behind its simple, straightforward graphics and theme-adequate accompanying sounds lies a true gem, a slot that brings together the impossible and makes a blend that will appeal to a far wider audience than a regular video slot.
