About Shah Mat
Chess is a game based on strategy, and this is the main focus in Shah Mat. Played across 8 rows with the cluster pays mechanic it’s available to play on desktop and mobile devices from 10p up to £20 per spin. RTP is slightly below average at 95.79% and volatility is expected to be high.A giant chessboard forms the backdrop to the slot with reels flanked by two huge columns. Royals provide the low values while Knights, Bishops, rooks, Queens, and Kings represent the top paying symbols.
Gameplay
If you enjoy a game of chess, then you’ll love Shah Mat. This thoroughly immersive game provides a cluster pays mechanic where symbols involved in a winning cluster fall away and are replaced by new symbols. If a wild lands in a winning cluster only regular symbols fall away and the wild remains on the grid.Symbols can land on the reels in various sizes from 1×1 to 4×4, this is the Super Symbols feature and it increases your chances of winning clusters, wilds can also land as larger symbols.If two or more wilds land on the reels next to one another they merge to create a single symbol with a multiplier attached. The multiplier value mirrors the number of wilds in the symbol, for example, 2 wild symbols merging = 2x multiplier and so on.You activate the free spins feature in the same ways as many slots by landing 3 or more scatter on a spin. The number of free spins you’ll receive is determined by the number of triggering scatters. 6 scatters award 21 free spins in total. Wild multipliers are present during the free spins and the values are combined and your prize awarded.
Verdict
Chess is a great concept for a slot game and not something we have seen very often. The visuals in Shah Mat are stunning and something we have come to expect from Red Tiger. The bonus features are enough to provide extremely lucrative rewards.
