Pub Kings Slot by Pragmatic Play

Two scatters on a single spin can trigger an instant cash prize without entering free spins. The game picks a random reel and a random award level between 1 and 5, paying anywhere from 2x to 600x total bet depending on which reel hits. Reel 1 carries the biggest prizes - its level 7 award pays the full 5,000x cap.

Three scatters start 10 free spins with a collection mechanic. Each high-paying viking character gets linked to one of the five reels at the start of the round. After every spin, all instances of each character on the grid get collected into their assigned reel. Landing 6 of the same character unlocks level 1 of that reel's award table, and every 3 characters after that push it up another level - all the way to level 7. Meanwhile, beer mugs also accumulate next to each character across the round.

When the last spin ends, the character with the most beers collected wins the prize currently sitting on its reel. If two characters tie, the one linked to the higher-value reel wins. So the round is essentially a race between five viking characters to collect the most beers while simultaneously leveling up their reel's prize pool. The round cannot retrigger.

The paytable itself runs traditional 20-line pays with the top viking at 150x for five of a kind and six card ranks at the bottom. Buy bonus costs 100x bet for a direct entry into the 10 free spins.
