Are you looking for a slot with a touch of luxury? Welcome to Regal Riches, a game with a sophisticated style and royal-themed symbols (including golden shields, crowns, and fine silverware). It’s a 5x4 slot with 30 fixed paylines and multiple bonus features to try.
One of the features that impressed me most is the Progressive Wilds bonus. Gem symbols on the reels can transform into Wild symbols to give you a better chance of lining up winning combos. And you can also trigger two free spins features: the Major Free Spins Bonus and Mega Free Spins Bonus.

I found Regal Riches simple to play, and I think you will, too. The Spin button is in the bottom-right corner, so press it to spin the reels. The Auto Spin button next to it opens the Auto Spin menu, where you can set up a maximum of 100 automated spins.
The ‘Paytable’ and ‘Game Rules’ buttons at the top of the screen take you to the respective pages, which offer more information on how to play. Use the ‘Audio On’ button to turn the sound on or off.
Push the settings button to open the menu, where you can change your bet and set up auto spins. The ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons on either side of the bet meter let you change your stake.
Regal Riches’ symbols all have a stylish and colourful design that fits the luxurious theme.
The royals pay up to 50x your stake, while the lute and trumpet award up to 60x. You can win up to 100x your bet with the goblet, emerald ring, crown, and shield symbols.
Payouts get higher with the three Wild symbols: they’re worth 125x max each. Wilds can stand in for other symbols on a payline to create wins. Free Spins Scatter symbols trigger the free spins features.
You need three, four, or five matching symbols on any paylines to win cash payouts. Wild symbols will help you win by substituting for other symbols when you don’t have enough to build a winning combo.
Each total bet in Regal Riches has a Progressive Wilds meter: the Major Free Spins meter and the base game meter.
After every spin in the base game, any green gem that lands on reel 5 boosts the Major Free Spins meter by 1 Wild. The gem then transforms into a green Wild. After you play the Major Free Spins Bonus, the Major Free Spins meter resets back to 40 Wilds (but it can have up to 100 Wilds).
Any blue gem that appears anywhere on the reels during the base game boosts the base game meter by 1 Wild. The gem then transforms into a blue Wild. Once the Guaranteed Wilds feature ends, the base game meter resets back to 5 Wilds (it can hold a maximum of 50 Wilds).
The Guaranteed Wilds feature can trigger on any spin in the base game that doesn’t award a blue gem, green gem, or free spins. If the Guaranteed Wilds feature triggers, one or more symbol positions will transform into a blue Wild.
If a position chosen to become a blue Wild already has one, that becomes a Wild with a 2x multiplier instead. The multiplier increases by 1x each time that symbol position transforms, up to a maximum of 5x.
The base game meter drops by 1 Wild whenever a symbol position transforms. If more than one multiplier Wild substitutes for another symbol to form a winning combo, the payout is multiplied by the sum of the multipliers combined.
The total number of Wilds shown in the base game meter from the spin that triggers the feature is guaranteed to be awarded by the time the feature ends.
Get two blue Free Spins Scatters anywhere on reels 1 - 4 and a green Free Spins Scatter on reel 5 to trigger this feature. You can trigger it if your Major Free Spins meter reaches 100 Wilds.
When the feature starts, you get ten free spins. One or more symbol positions may transform into a green Wild on each free spin, and green Wilds can also have multipliers of up to 5x.
Land two blue Free Spins Scatters on reels 1 - 4 and a gold Free Spins Scatter on reel 5 to get ten free spins with 88 Guaranteed Wilds. Symbol positions can transform into gold Wilds, with multipliers of up to 5x as before.
Regal Riches offers a max win of 3,333x your stake. The bonus features can increase your chances of winning the prizes.
Regal Riches has a theoretical Return to Player (RTP) of 96.27%. That’s better than the 96% average for slots.
The volatility is in the medium range so that payouts can be regular. When I played, prizes were pretty frequent but tended to be small (as I expected).
Regal Riches has a luxurious style with royal-themed imagery. The reels are transparent with a golden frame, and the background features dark purple patterns. Small glowing orbs drift up from the bottom of the screen.
I liked the contrast between the bright symbols and the more subtle background, but it’s not a particularly exciting game visually. The music has a lot of drive and intense sound effects, but they only kick in when you spin the reels. If you wait a few moments between spins, the game goes silent.
With our Regal Riches demo, you can test the game for free without betting your money. Spin the reels with thousands of virtual credits and explore Regal Riches at your own pace.
Regal Riches is one of many luxury-themed slots on the market, and others have royal elements.
Rising Royals transports you to 18th-century France to meet a wealthy family of royals, with a Symbol Upgrade feature and a Re-Spin bonus to try. If you want the luxury without the royals, try Deco Diamonds Deluxe instead. T1920s culture inspires this with diamond-filled symbols, a Bonus Wheel, and a Re-Spin feature.
Another option is Diamond Empire, which is similar to Deco Diamonds Deluxe. It includes stacked Wilds and a Bonus Wheel that awards multiplier wins of up to 888x.
Let’s see how all four slots compare.
Regal Riches is a decent slot with some robust features. The Progressive Wilds and Guaranteed Wilds bonuses give the game more depth, and numerous Wild symbols can be added to the reels. That might make it easier for you to build winning combos.
The Major Free Spins Bonus and Mega Free Spins Bonus may help boost the size of your payouts, thanks to the multiplier Wilds. The max win is fine at 3,333x, but it could be slightly higher with many bonuses and luxury themes.
Overall, Regal Riches is worth a try mainly for its features.
