Full Rules & Information About the Rat Royale Online Slot

Pragmatic Play’s latest new slot has a square game grid, with a 5×5 set of reels offering a whopping 259 ways to win from each spin at UK online casinos.

No jackpot is offered for Rat Royale players, but multipliers and free spins are up for grabs and it costs from 20p to spin the reels on the new slot.

Rat Royale Symbols & Payouts

A-10 icons are in place on the new slot’s paytable as the low pays, while payouts rise for rat symbols holding a range of coloured gems. These run from low to high-paying in the following order: blue, green, purple and red.

The new slot from Pragmatic Play has a standard wild that can swap in to help make winning spins, which need three or more matching symbols. Wilds come with multipliers too. Rat Royale also has four Rat King Wilds, which only land on the middle reel.

Rat icons holding gems are among the new slot’s symbols.

• All symbols: 14
• Highest-Paying Symbol: Red Gem Rat
• Wilds: Rat King Wilds
• Paylines Pay: Left to Right
• Maximum Win: 15,000x the stake size

Rat Royale Bonuses & Features

The new slot’s Rat King Wilds are the first feature to explore. As with the four standard rat icons on the game’s reels, they come in four colours – blue, green, purple and red – and they each have a power that they apply.

When the Red Gem Rat King Wild drops, the symbol expands to fill the reel if the spin produces any win. For the Purple Gem Rat King Wild, any multipliers of all regular wilds in view are added to the multiplier on the wild itself.

Green Gem Rat King Wild on the new slot’s reels has the power to contribute its own multiplier to those that are already in place on other wilds.

Lastly, if the Blue Gem Rat King Wild drops, then any blue rat symbols on the reels will turn into a standard wild, which has a random multiplier.

Landing three or more scatters triggers free spins with variants in play

Rat Royale also has a free spins bonus round, triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. Three scatters triggers the bonus game with the Blood Ritual variant, which changes to the Blood Pact variant when four scatters drop. If five scatters land, then the Blood Lust variant is the one in play for the bonus round.

Blood Ritual free spins ensure that any wilds that land have a multiplier with a value of at least x2. Rat King Wilds are guaranteed to land in the Blood Pact free spins.

And when the Blood Lust version of the free spins game is played, the reels have a fully expanded Rat King Wild in place on the middle reel throughout.

A further five free spins are also added if three scatters drop from the same spin during the bonus round on Rat Royale by Pragmatic Play.

Similar Games & Best Alternatives

Push Gaming’s Rat King has a very similar theme and also puts the animal at the heart of the action. Meanwhile, Rogue Rats of Nitropolis is another option to try.

Rat Royale’s maker Pragmatic Play produces various new slots and casino games with Color Game Bonanza among the big hits to have come out of the studio.

Wonderful Wilds Make Slots Magic

Pragmatic Play’s new slots are often shiny and sparkly affairs, but Rat Royale has a dingier, darker feel that may not appeal to everyone at UK online casinos, even if the top win of 15,000x the stake size appeals.

Offering medium volatility and an RTP of 96.52% is a solid combination, and features like the Rat King Wilds help to make the new slot stand out, as do the three different variants of the free spins bonus round, which can be productive.
