Rainbow King, £500 Jackpot Slot Machine, FOBT and Online.
Rainbow King is a random fruit / slot machine from Novamatic. It was released in the U.K. in late 2011 and featured as a promotional game in William Hill bookies. The pushing of this game on the main screen of the fixed odds betting terminals (FOBT's) helped to raise the games profile amongst slot machine players.
The game is set to £500 jackpot in the U.K., except for the online version which has a jackpot of £200,00 when played on a massive £400 per spin. The online version also has a minimum stake of 1p per spin, per pay line (up to 20 lines), so you can play to your wealth.
The theme is the same as many of its predecessors, with three bonus features and twenty win-lines to enhance the playing experience. It's a bright, colourful machine which thankfully lacks the annoying 'attraction' music its predecessor Reel King had in many arcades.
The bonuses are pretty interesting, but nothing too original:
The King Cash feature is the main 'super' feature which can pay up to jackpot. This is shown in the video below, and is awarded by landing three golden crowns anywhere in view on the centre three win-lines. Once awarded, the player has the option to pick just one of twelve crowns. Each of these crowns has a value ranging from a minimum of £50, up to the jackpot. Visual odds assume there is a 12/1 chance of getting the jackpot, and I would assume these are true odds as it is difficult to win this feature in the first place.
After your selection, which is paid to your credits, you are shown where the other values were. You are then returned to your standard game.
Online Rainbow King: This feature offers values based on the value of the stake you are playing at. £200,000 is only available if you are playing at £400 per spin.
Cash Castle is a simple pick me type feature. This is awarded with either three, four, or five castles in view. The more castles, the higher the awards offered. Five can offer the chance of a jackpot, but not always. Again, you are shown the value of all the boxes once you have made your selection.
Once again, the value of these features in the online version is considerably different depending on the stake you are playing.
You can play the machine in demo mode further down the page to learn the values of these online features.
The final, and most fun feature is Rainbow King. This is awarded by landing three, four, or five slot type symbols anywhere in view. The value of the feature increases with four and five symbols, but all three are capable of offering the jackpot.
The player is transferred to a board game style feature board, with a dice and a crown playing piece. There are cash values and slot bonuses that all accumulate to the final pot. This is the automatically collected upon exiting of the feature via a 'take your money' square.

The rest of the wins are made up of reel wins, which it isn't too shy on giving. It doesn't tend to (or seem to) favour offering certain wins over features, so a good selection of both are generally awarded.
