Royal Banquet Slot by Genii

Tudor England by way of Saturday-morning cartoons. The reels float inside a wooden cabinet in some castle great hall, cobblestone floor under your feet, stone arches off to the sides, and tattered red banners hanging from distant turrets. The header banner is curly red calligraphy on golden parchment, the cells are warm off-white like illuminated manuscript pages, and the symbols look like they wandered in from Disney's Robin Hood: a portly bald king clutching a turkey leg, a striped jester mid-prance, a frantic yellow chicken, a knight with sword, a chef with spoon, a roast pig with the apple still in its mouth.

The wild is King Eric Eat-A-Lot, and he subs for everything except the two scatters. He carries no multiplier and pays nothing on his own, which is unusual for a character wild this prominent. The trade-off is the paytable itself: the top five symbols all pay 2-of-a-kind, with the Queen worth 5 coins for a pair, Knight and Chef worth 3, Musician and Chalice worth 2. That's the largest 2-of-a-kind tier on a Saucify-era build short of Roll Up Roll Up's six, and it means small hits land constantly on character symbols. There are no card royals (A/K/Q/J/10) anywhere, the entire paytable is themed.

Two scatters drive the features and they're handled by separate characters. Claude the Jesteer (yes, spelled that way in the official paytable, engine typo and all) triggers free spins: three jesters anywhere on the reels gets 10 spins, four gets 15, and five hits the jackpot at 30, which is a steep jump from the four-scatter tier. They retrigger on the same scaling, no multiplier is added, and the line bet locks for the duration.

The other scatter is The Chicken, who triggers Test the Broth, a pick-style bonus where you sample the king's soup pot for cash prizes scaled to the triggering bet. Three or more anywhere starts it. No buy bonus, no ante, no jackpot, no tumbles, just two parallel scatter paths and a wild that exists purely to fill in for the named cast. The 10-tier coins-per-line range (1 through 10 rather than the more common five steps) gives you finer control over stake than most slots offer, which makes the older engine quietly more flexible than newer Genii titles in the same medieval bracket.
