Shining Royal 5: Strike down Wild Crowns and Radiant Bells for up to 500x Wins

With dazzling fruits, 7s, and golden bells filling the reels of Gameart’s Shining Royal 5, does this new classic-themed slot have what it takes to become a hit? With symbol payouts up to 100x your bet, expanding wilds, two different scatters offering up to 500x payouts, and a gamble feature, it just might. Let me break it down for you below!

Shining Royal 5 brings familiar mechanics with 5 reels, 3 rows, and 20 winning piles connecting them together. After playing the game for about an hour, I noticed that symbol pays were landing every 3 to 7 spins with the payouts being higher than average between 1.50x to 3.75x my bet. 

Despite the decent payouts, I was not seeing much profit early in my session, so I decided to try out the gamble feature available after landing a winning combination. The gamble feature opens up a card-based mini-game where predicting the color doubles your win while guessing the suit quadruples it. I first used it only for rare small wins under 0.75x my bet and had decent results. 

I even managed to push a few small wins up to 6x my bet but the game wasn’t super consistent in terms of wins so I’d advise caution while using it. The other feature worth talking about is the scatters that bring the free spins bonus game. While the star-shaped scatter only has small payouts, I saw it quite frequently on the reels which got me up to 15x wins a few times. 

The Golden Bell Scatter was much rarer and had up to 500x payouts but I was not able to get them to land in triplets or more so those big wins weren’t in my reach. There are no other features or a bonus game in Shining Royal 5 and this slot heavily relies on its surprising base game payouts to keep players interested. I had a decent time in the game but it wasn’t anything special.
