Pragmatic Play's New Dark-Themed Slot: Rat Royale

Pragmatic Play has launched Rat Royale, a new slot game for players. Unlike the bright colours the provider is usually known for, the game offers a dark and misty visual world. In this respect, the game is positioned as a product suited to the autumn season.

The story is built around a decayed kingdom ruled by human-like rats. The cunning rat king sits beside the screen on a pile of gold and does not want to share his wealth. Players, meanwhile, try to use their courage to claim a share of the kingdom's treasury.

The symbols are designed in pale colours, while the glowing gems carried by the rat soldiers stand out against this muted tone. The golden W symbol replaces all other symbols and applies a multiplier between 1x and 100x to wins. According to the game rules, up to three Wild symbols can appear on the same reel.

The rat king appears in the game as both a Scatter and a Rat King Wild symbol. These symbols come in four colour variants and can only appear on the third reel. Each symbol activates a different special power depending on its colour, and can add a multiplier of up to 500x to all wins it takes part in.

Among the special powers, the symbol with a red gem can cover the entire reel, the one with a purple gem adds its multiplier to the normal Wild multipliers on screen, the one with a green gem transfers its own multiplier to the other Wild symbols on screen, and the one with a blue gem turns rat symbols carrying blue gems into Wild symbols. Three to five Scatter symbols trigger one of three bonus game variants.
