Kingdom of Atlantis Jackpot Play Slot Review
Beneath the waves of this drowned city, the treasure everyone’s actually hunting sits in the top bar, not on the reels. Kingdom of Atlantis Jackpot Play is Pragmatic Play bolting four progressive jackpots onto the scatter-pays engine behind Gates of Olympus and Sweet Bonanza, and the jackpots change the game more than the theme does. Any base-game spin can end on the pick screen, at any eligible stake, which quietly reshapes what you’re spinning for.
It runs on a 6×5 grid where symbols pay anywhere on the screen, with medium volatility, an RTP of 94.50% and bets from 0.20 to 240 per spin. Wins top out at 5,000x the bet. That’s the engine you’ve probably already played in Sugar Rush or its cousins, now with a second prize draw running underneath it.
Base Game & Features
There’s no wild symbol here. Wins come from landing enough of the same symbol anywhere on the grid: eight or more matching symbols pays, and the count of them at the end of a spin sets the value. Wins from different symbols are added together, and everything is multiplied by the base bet.
The trident emblem leads the paytable, with the crown, ring and goblet behind it, and gems and a pearl-filled shell filling out the lower tiers. Every symbol pays across three tiers, capped at the 30-symbol mark. Symbol pays, as multiples of the total bet:
- Trident Emblem: 50x for 12-30 symbols, 25x for 10-11, 10x for 8-9
- Crown: 25x for 12-30, 10x for 10-11, 2.5x for 8-9
- Ring: 15x for 12-30, 5x for 10-11, 2x for 8-9
- Goblet: 12x for 12-30, 2x for 10-11, 1.5x for 8-9
- Star: 10x for 12-30, 1.5x for 10-11, 1x for 8-9
- Shell with Pearl: 8x for 12-30, 1.2x for 10-11, 0.8x for 8-9
- Purple Gem: 5x for 12-30, 1x for 10-11, 0.5x for 8-9
- Blue Gem: 4x for 12-30, 0.9x for 10-11, 0.4x for 8-9
- Green Gem: 2x for 12-30, 0.75x for 10-11, 0.25x for 8-9
- Scatter: 3x for four, 5x for five, 100x for six
The scatter sits on all reels and pays on any position, so it never needs to line up with anything. It’s also the key to the free spins round, which is where the multipliers change character.
Tumble Feature
Every winning spin sets off a tumble. Winning symbols are paid and removed, everything left falls to the bottom, and new symbols drop in from above. Tumbling continues as long as new wins keep forming, with no limit on how many can chain from a single spin.
The lot is added to your balance once the sequence finally stops, so a long run pays as one figure rather than as a drip of separate wins. A fresh symbol landing in place of a winner can complete a different combination entirely, which is how one spin keeps rolling into the next.
Multiplier Symbols
Green, blue, pink and red multiplier symbols sit on all reels and can land at random during spins and tumbles, in the base game and in free spins alike. Values run from 2x up to 500x.
They don’t multiply anything on their own. When a tumble sequence ends, every multiplier on screen is added together and the combined total is applied to the whole sequence’s win, so two or three landing in the same run stack into one much larger figure.
Kingdom of Atlantis Jackpot Play Free Spins & Jackpots
Free Spins
Four or more scatter symbols anywhere on the screen awards 15 free spins, with special reels in play for the round. The scatters pay on their own too, from 3x for four up to 100x for six, so the trigger itself carries a prize.
The difference from the base game is what the multipliers do. Instead of paying out per sequence, every multiplier that lands on a winning spin is added to a running total for the whole round, and that total then applies to every subsequent win. Landing three or more scatters during the round adds five more spins.
Because the total only grows, an early run of multipliers keeps working for the rest of the round, and a retrigger late on hands a fat multiplier to a fresh set of spins. The round’s entire win is paid out once it completes.
Ante Bet
Two bet multipliers are on offer before you spin. At 25x, the bet doubles, more scatters sit on the reels and the chance of triggering free spins naturally is doubled, but the bonus buy switches off. At the standard 20x, the buy stays available.
The RTP is 94.50% either way, so the choice is purely about how you want to chase the round rather than what it costs you in return.
Buy Free Spins
The free spins round can be bought outright from the base game for 100x the current bet. It runs at the same 94.50% RTP as everything else in the game.
Buying is disabled while the 25x ante bet is on, so the two routes to the round are mutually exclusive. The free spins round you buy is the same one scatters trigger: 15 spins, running total multiplier, retrigger at three scatters.
Jackpot Bonus Game
Up to four progressive jackpots can run at once, stepping down from GRAND through MEGA and MAJOR to MINOR, with the amounts displayed in the top bar and fed by contributions from participating bets.
Any bet from the 0.20 minimum upwards is eligible, and your odds scale with your stake, though every pot can be won at any eligible bet. The trigger is random, at the end of any base-game spin, and it can’t hit during free spins or any other feature.
When it lands, you open items on a bonus screen until three carry the same jackpot name, and that’s the pot you take. Won jackpots reseed from funds set aside for the purpose and start building again.
Two players hitting a jackpot at almost the same moment are paid in order rather than splitting the pot, each collecting whatever the pot held at the instant of their win. The amounts shown in the top bar can lag slightly behind the true figures during play.
Our Honest Verdict
Overall Rating: 7/10
The scatter-pays grind will be familiar to anyone who’s spun this engine before, and it plays exactly as steadily as medium volatility suggests. What makes it worth a seat is the four-tier ladder ticking away in the top bar: every base-game spin carries a second draw, so the flat stretches between bonuses never quite feel like waiting for nothing.
The free spins round is the best thing here, because a total multiplier that only ever climbs means one hot opening pays on every win that follows it. The weakness is the ceiling: 5,000x is small for a grid that prints 500x multipliers, and 94.50% is a notch shy of what this formula usually pays back.
It suits the scatter-pays fan who’d like a side prize to root for between bonus rounds, and the medium-pace player who prefers their sessions steady over savage. Anyone chasing the biggest ceilings this engine has produced elsewhere will want deeper water. For the rest, there’s real treasure in the shallows.
