Play Midnight Knights for Free

Midnight Knights has a very standard look, shared by many other retro slot games on the market. The background shows a fierce-looking knight in armour riding a horse with the full moon shining brightly in the sky. The majority of the screen is still filled with a bulky command bar, the reels themselves and an extensive paytable on the side.

In other words, Midnight Knights is rather cluttered and sticks to that very old-school look that you may love - or hate. At least the game will probably not leave any player indifferent. With all the possibilities offered by modern computers and mobile devices, we were expecting a bit more from Midnight Knights to be honest. But if you are in the mood for some retro gambling, then keep on reading.

Midnight Knights lets you bet on 1, 2 or 3 paylines maximum, set on its 3 reels. Use the plus and minus buttons located under the reels to choose the coin size and activate as many paylines as you want. The bet max and autoplay shortcuts are there if you want to speed up the process a little, but otherwise Midnight Knights is fairly straightforward when it comes to its basic rules.

The small reel set of the game comes with a higher volatility, which makes the whole experience more challenging than usual. The most common symbols available are single, double and triple bar signs, followed by coats of arms and rings worth x3000 at most. The knight symbol is the rarest of the game for 2 reasons. First of all, it acts as a wild and can replace the other icons quite easily. Most importantly, wild combinations can be worth up to x5000, if you are playing all-in. The minimum bet is 0.06 and maximum is 6.00.

There are plenty of options available for players who dream of becoming the famed knight in shining armour. Black Knight by WMS, for example, is another challenging slot game with a high volatility that you might enjoy. Note that you also get to enjoy a larger, 5-reel setup in this game.

Knight’s Life by Merkur is another option to consider. Based on a more modern gameplay, this game offers up to 30 free spins to the luckiest players, with some win multipliers available as well. As such, this Merkur creation could be the perfect alternative for players who would rather avoid any sort of old-school slot game.

Midnight Knights is going to be quite polarising, as far as gameplay and design go. You have to love old-school slot machines and high-variance challenges to really enjoy Midnight Knights to its fullest, as the game embodies both trends perfectly. Otherwise, this Tom Horn Gaming game will probably not be your cup of tea at all.

The addition of a wild symbol was a nice touch, but probably not enough to reach a broader audience. In other words, Midnight Knights was probably designed to appeal to veteran gamblers mostly. If you are nostalgic of simpler physical slot machines but cannot afford a trip to the casino right now, this could be a good alternative.
