The Royal Family Slot Review

Released March 2020

The Royal Family slots game is produced by Yggdrasil Gaming. Yggdrasil Gaming take their name from Norse mythology where Yggdrasil is a magical tree where dragons lived and Odin sacrificed himself. Yggdrasil Gaming are one of the smaller slot development companies on the market at the moment – primarily focusing on lottery and scratch card game – and do not offer a full casino platform. They lease their games out to casinos using other platforms as a bolt on package. Yggdrasil Gaming publish the Return to Player/House Edge of their slots games within the game help file. The House Edge of Royal Family is 3.9%.

Royal Family is a 5 reel game that is 4 symbols high. It has 25 paylines, playing from left to right.

Theme

This slot has a medieval theme to it. You get a nonspecific royal family, each member equally outrageous, you get the castle that they live in and the Jester that keeps them all entertained.

Special Symbols

Wild – The Wild symbol is the “Jester”, which will substitute for all symbols other than Free Spins symbols.

Free Spins – The “Trophy” is the Free Spins symbol. You need 3 or more of the Free Spins symbols to trigger the feature.

Bonus – The Bonus symbol is the “Royal Chest”. You need to land one on the last reel in order to trigger the Bonus feature.

Bonus Features

Free Spins – 3, 4 or 5 Free Spins symbols will award 8, 16 or 24 Free Spins respectively. During the Free Spins there is a chance that your high paying symbols can become sticky Wilds that will remain in place for the duration of the spins.

Feature Prizes – You can also trigger the Free Spins when you land 2 Feature Prizes on one reel. Feature Prizes are awarded at random and whatever reels they land on they will be placed in a space to the bottom of it. Once you land 2 on a reels you will be awarded at least 8 Free Spins, during which the Feature Prizes will be active.

Common Feature Prizes – You can land 1, 2 or 3 additional Spins, 1, 2 or 3 starting Wilds or you can have 1 low paying symbol removed from the reels.

Rare Feature Prizes – Rare Feature prizes only land on specific reels and will only do so once there is a Common Feature Wild on that reel already:

Reel 1 – Swords will only land on reel 1 and can award 2 extra Free Spins, 2 starting Wilds or a x2 multiplier.

Reel 2 – Crowns will only land on reel 2and can a award a x4 multiplier.

Reel 3 – Golden Eggs will only land on reel 3 and will award 2 starting Wild reels.

Reel 4 – Necklaces will only land on reel 4 and will award 6 starting Wilds.

Reel 5 – Keys will only land on reel 5 and will award 9 extra Free Spins.

Bonus – If you land the “Royal Chest” Bonus during the base game then you will either win an instant prize, worth up to 2500 coins or you will be awarded either 8, 16 or 24 Free Spins. Those Free Spins will be the same as the ones described in the Free Spins section above. If you land the “Royal Chest” during the Free Spins then you will be given 2, 3 or 4 extra Free Spins or 1, 2 or 3 sticky Wilds.

Conclusion

Yggdrasil hit the mark in terms of how this slot looks. As usual this is up to their brilliant standard and is a real feast for the eye. One thing to note about this slot is that it was made exclusive with LeoVegas in 2018, and as such it isn’t strictly speaking a new slot, but the purpose of this review it will be new to a lot of people. The slot comes with Free Spins that can be triggered in 3 different ways. There are Feature Prize spins that comes with a nice little additional modifier and you get a Bonus feature that will either get you Free Spins or an instant win. The house edge is beneath 4% and as such should be considered reasonable value.
