Zillard King Review

Given the success Red Tiger has had with their original release, Primate King, it’s no wonder they want to try their luck with a follow-up. Unfortunately, Zillard King is close to being a pure reskin job however, but the medium volatility makes this more suitable for the casual crowd. The 3,500x potential is close to the original, and the only real difference is the random losing spin feature that now provides up to 9 wilds instead of removing low-pay symbols.

The game doesn’t fire on all cylinders until you’ve reached level 3 in the progress meter, and the Zillard Wild is thus upgraded in 3 steps. You eventually end up with sticky 1x4 Zillard Wilds with a random starting multiplier, and the multiplier increases per consecutive win (up to x20, at best). The progress meter turns into a 6th reel with only premium symbols, and 6-oak wins pays twice the amount you get from 5-oak wins.

Zillard King Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 3 to 15 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and 6 to 30 x your stake for 6-oak wins. The latter only applies when the 6th reel has been unlocked, and it lands premium symbols only. Small gold coin icons are attached to random symbols, and these are collected if, and only if, you also land the Zillard Wild on the same spin.

The Zillard Wild symbol steps in for all regular pay symbols to help complete winning combinations, and collecting the gold coins progresses the Zillard Wild upgrade in 3 steps as follows:

• Upgrade level 1 (30 gold coins collected) - turns the Zillard Wild into a fully expanded 1x4 sized wild that fills the reel.
• Upgrade level 2 (60 gold coins collected) - adds a random multiplier to the 1x4 Zillard Wild.
• Upgrade level 3 (90 gold coins collected) - makes the multiplier 1x4 Zillard Wild sticky until it’s involved in a win, followed by a losing spin.

  

  The win multiplier increase for each consecutive win the Zillard Wild is part of, up to x20 at the most.

The Zillard Wild is then removed after you hit a non-winning spin, but the wild upgrades are permanent with the same bet level. When you’ve gone through all 3 upgrades, you’ll also see the progress bar turn into the 6th reel. Only premium symbols appear on this reel, and it’s unlocked from that point forward.

When you land a Zillard Wild that does not generate a win, the Thunder Wilds feature may trigger at random times. This awards 3 to 6 Thunder Wilds on a 5-reels grid, and up to 9 wilds if the 6th reel has been unlocked. The feature comes with a win guarantee.

Review Summary

There is a B-movie vibe hanging over this production, and it’s not only the somewhat “zilly” title and the fact that it’s close to being a reskin job. Also the visual presentation is a bit below the usual Red Tiger standard. The way the ocean moves in the background feels kind of cheap, although it’s not really a big deal. Overall, the audiovisuals create the right ominous atmosphere, and you do get the sense that a giant lizard with laser eyes can suddenly emerge from the raging seas.

As for the gameplay, well, you need patience to unlock everything, although it doesn’t take that long either. Once the dopamine progress reward is no longer a factor, you’re left with a 6x4 reels slot with a fully expanded, sticky winning-streak progressive multiplier wild that substitutes for the lack of a real bonus round. The premium symbol values double when the 6th reel is involved, but you can still “only” win up to a mediocre 3,500x your stake.

Pros

• Zillard Wild coin collect upgrade system
• Upgrade in 3 steps (1x4 size, multiplier and sticky)
• Unlock 6th ‘premium symbols only’ reel
• Increasing multiplier per consecutive sticky wild win
• Win up to 3,500x your stake

Cons

• No bonus round
• Close to a reskin of Primate King
• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges

If you appreciate Zillard King Slot you should also try:

Primate King - is a very similar release from Red Tiger, but this one revolves around a giant ape. You get the same coin collect wild upgrade system, which eventually also unlocks the 6th reel.

Raptor Doublemax - is a volatile dinosaur release from Yggdrasil, and each cascading consecutive ‘dropdown’ win doubles the win multiplier. Things can get interesting real soon this way, and the multiplier has no upper limit. It does not reset between bonus round spins, and you can win up to 20,000x your stake.

Reptizillions Power Reels - is another volatile dinosaur-themed release from Red Tiger, and it comes with a 8x6 grid with 30 betlines. Special super dinos turn into walking symbols, leading all matching adjacent symbols across the grid. The bonus round comes with a super symbol chosen up front, and you can win up to 4,473x your stake.
