The Sultan Spins slot is a Relax Gaming-powered game that premiered at online casinos on April 23, 2024. The game is refreshing as it comes with one of the rarely used themes in the iGaming industry, an Arabian theme. While most of the Arabian-themed slots on the market are inspired by Aladdin and hence feature common symbols such as lamps and genies, the Sultan Spins slot differs.

The game’s uniqueness stems from the fact that it is set against the backdrop of Burj Khalifa. Located in the United Arab Emirates, the epicenter of riches and wealth, players won’t be surprised to learn that all the symbols on the grid ooze class and elegance. Well, this also means the payouts churned out on winning spins are classy and handsome, and can reach a high of 5,000x the bet.

It’s recommended that at the start of the gaming session, players take control of the action by tweaking settings to their preference. The settings to adjust include:

• Bet Option:  With the game supporting an extensive range of betting options, from a minimum of 0.10 coins to 200.00 coins, select a bet amount that aligns with your bankroll management plan.
• Spin Option: Depending on whether you want to spin the reels manually or automatically, click the respective button you like.

The gaming action when playing the Sultan Spins slot plays out on a 5×4 reel grid with 40 paylines. On this grid, players are tasked with landing at least three identical symbols next to each other starting from the leftmost reel. 

The higher the number of symbols involved in the winning combination, the bigger the payout awarded. Owing to the game’s high volatility level, the frequency of landing winning combinations is low but the payouts awarded are super high.

The symbols that fetch payouts when landed on active paylines in sets of three or more include: 

• Smiling male character 
• A yacht 
• A top-of-the-range car 
• Expensively looking shoes 
• Royal poker icons.

• Wild: The icon that bears a ‘W’ icon acts as the wild and it possesses the power to substitute for all other symbols when evaluating wins.

• Local Jackpot Feature: Directly above each reel is a jackpot meter. The value of each meter increases whenever a gem symbol lands on the reel below. Once the jackpot value is increased, the gem will reveal either a payout symbol, a wild symbol that could expand to a wild reel, or a jackpot spin. The jackpot spin is played out on the standard playing grid, and once a jackpot has been won, that prize will reset. Players should note that each jackpot prize must be won before exceeding a specific value. The values are as follows:
  • Reel 1 must be won before 25x the bet. 
  • Reel 2 must be won before 50x the bet. 
  • Reel 3 must be won before 250x the bet. 
  • Reel 4 must be won before 1,250x the bet. 
  • Reel 5 must be won before 5,000x the bet.

• Free Spins Bonus: Three bonus symbols that land on the reels simultaneously help trigger the free spins bonus. All bonus symbols that land will be collected during the feature, and every 5^th symbol collected will unlock a new level. The levels which are played consecutively are as follows:
  • Level 1: 7 free spins with 1x multiplier. 
  • Level 2: 7 free spins with 2x multiplier. 
  • Level 3: 7 free spins with 4x multiplier. 
  • Level 4: 7 free spins with 6x multiplier. 
  • Level 5: 7 free spins with 8x multiplier.

Bonus symbols collected in the free spins bonus round, which don’t unlock a new level will be carried into the base game. The free spins round includes the local jackpot feature but multipliers only apply to the standard win lines. 

What I loved when playing the Sultan Spins slot is that:

• It comes with a unique, refreshing theme.
• An easy-to-trigger jackpot bonus round that can produce top rewards of up to 5,000x the bet. 
• An above-industry average RTP pegged at 96.10%.
