Theme – Audio & Design Features – a simple medieval setting

The design in the Gem Splash: Kings Court slot is rather basic. With a medieval theme, Playtech has produced this game with studio RareStone meaning it’s rather simple graphically.  In the background, you’ll see the shadow of a medieval castle.

The unfussy visuals are matched by a rather generic soundtrack. There not much that hints of the middle ages as far as the backing track goes. In fact, it gets a bit jazzy when you land a winning combination. The functional design here does the job but it’s not overloaded with flair.

On the reels are A to J royals which are joined by a ring, crown and white horse. The bearded king is the most rewarding symbol. This pays 0.8, 3 or 6 x your total stake if you land 3, 4 or 5 on a payline. Oddly, there is no wild symbol.

Gem Splash: Kings Court is available to play on desktop, tablet and smartphone devices. The basic but colourful symbols stand out nicely, even on the small screen. The straightforward gameplay also works find if you’re playing the Gem Splash: Kings Court mobile slot.

Gem Drops are special overlay symbols that can appear on top of any symbol or above the reels on any spin. They then drop down the reels 1 row at a time on the spins that follows until they fall off the bottom of the game grid.

You’ll notice that each Gem Drop symbol comes with a cash value attached. These start at 1 x your stake and can get as high as 100 x stake.  If the Gem Drop symbol covers a Gem Splash symbol, you’ll trigger the Gem Splash feature and win the attached Gem Drop prize.

The prize shown on an oversized Gem Drop are awarded once for every Gem Splash that lands under it. Prizes on each big Gem Drop are worth between 3 and 20 x your stake.

Gem Splash: Kings Court Review Summary – jackpots fit for a king 

Like the other slots in this series, the Gem Splash: Kings Court slot is relatively straightforward as far as gameplay is concerned. The Gem Drops can deliver some tidy payouts though, especially in the free spins where the colossal 4x4 symbols can quickly have an impact.

It’s not the flashiest looking and sounding game you’ll play and the payouts from each base game spin or the Gem Drops won’t appeal to many. This game is all about the progressive jackpots. The size of them depends on how popular the Gem Splash series is.

The Gem Splash: Marilyn Monroe slot offers the same jackpots but has more on the features front. It also offers big non-jackpot wins of 2,000 x stake per spin. If it’s jewels you want, Da Vinci Diamonds by IGT is a popular land-based and online slot game worth trying.
