Lunar Link: The Legend of King Arthur

Lunar Link: The Legend of King Arthur, developed by Playtech, combines Arthurian legend with lunar-themed gameplay elements. The character appears to be King Arthur himself, represented as the Wild symbol. Other characters include a wizard, Merlin.

Core Game and Mechanics:

The game features a standard slot layout with multiple paylines (30 visible in the images). Players aim to match symbols from left to right on these paylines to win. The game includes traditional card symbols (10, J, Q, K, A) as lower-paying icons, while theme-specific symbols like the wizard, spell book, crystal ball, and ring offer higher payouts. The Wild symbol, depicting King Arthur, substitutes for all symbols except special ones like the Bonus and Moon symbols.
