Knockout Riches Demo (PG Soft) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

It’s not the first time here at demoslot that I’ve commented on the lack of great online slots in the sporting genre, and in my opinion, that’s down to licensing, as getting the biggest brands and names on board would cost a small fortune, along with gambling now generally being frowned upon in modern day sport advertsing. That puts an added onus on game developers to come up with their own ideas, and in today’s review of Knockout Riches from PG Soft, we’re taking a step inside the squared circle where entering the championship rounds could bring big prizes. Before we get to the features, let’s quickly look at the main stats. Knockout Riches is a 5-reel slot with up to 9,000 ways to win, an RTP of 96.75%, and a maximum win of 10,000x.

Knockout Riches is positioned on our sporting-themed slots page, where, despite the lack of licensed content, you’ll still find some interesting and fun slots to play. As today’s game also has a boxing theme, we’ll stick with that to fire some recommendations your way. So, if you think you’ve got 12 rounds in you, go and check out Jili Games Boxing King, along with the iconic Rocky slot, from the legendary provider Playtech.

We move to the pays section next, and at the top of the paytable is the Female boxer, paying 2.5x for a five of a kind win. She is followed by the Punchbag and Head Guard, both returning 1x, whilst the Gloves and Gumshield complete the premium section with payouts of 0.5x if five match across a payway. That only leaves the lower-value symbols with Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Ten, all sharing rewards of 0.25x for a winning combination of five.

We round off this part of the review with the possible betting options on Knockout Riches. Players can choose to spin the reels from a minimum of €0.20 to a maximum of €100.

PG Soft’s Knockout Riches is initially played on a 3x4x4x4x3 reel configuration, but this can expand in the base game and the free spins, as we’ll learn more about later. Wins are awarded when three or more matching symbols land on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel first. All winning combos trigger cascading reels, which replace winning symbols with new ones, giving you more chances to win.

Stacking Symbols

During any spin with 3 or more rounds, the Stacking Symbols Feature will be triggered. At the end of the 3rd round, the values above reels 2, 3, and 4 will be set as 1.

Starting from the 4th round onwards, any winning symbols on reels 2, 3, and/or 4 will increase the respective reel’s value by an amount equal to the number of winning symbols on that reel.

At the end of the spin, both reel 1 and 5 will be transformed into a single randomly chosen symbol (excluding Wild symbol and Scatter symbol), and reel 2, 3 and 4 will be filled with a stacked amount of the chosen symbols equal to the value above the reels before wins are paid.

The maximum value above reels 2, 3 and 4 is 20.

Landing 2 scatter symbols in the base game will trigger the bonus round and award 5 free spins, with each extra scatter that hits thereafter adding an extra 5 spins to your starting total.

Free Spins

The free spins on Knockout Riches play out precisely the same as the base game. However, in the feature, the number of stacking symbols above the reels will not reset between losing spins.
