PG Soft Launches Knockout Riches
PG Soft has released Knockout Riches, a boxing-themed slot featuring dynamic reel layouts, stacked symbol mechanics, and a free spins mode. The game centers on Ruby, a rising star in the boxing world, offering players an intense, high-energy slot experience with potential for significant wins.
Ruby Takes Center Stage
The new slot introduces Ruby, also known as the “Flaming Rose,” as its central character. Players step into her corner as she fights her way to success, with every spin reflecting grit, determination, and a drive for victory. Designed around themes of empowerment and personal triumph, the game positions Ruby as both a symbol of resilience and the key to unlocking major payouts.
Reel Setup and Gameplay Features
Knockout Riches runs on a unique reel structure: reels 1 and 5 vary between 1 and 3 rows, while reels 2, 3, and 4 can expand from 4 to 20 rows. This configuration supports PG Soft’s signature stacking system, which is central to the game’s mechanics.
During any spin that includes three or more rounds, the Stacking Symbols Feature is triggered. By the third round, the values above the middle reels are set to 1. From the fourth round onwards, any winning symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4 increase the reel’s value based on the number of wins on that reel.
After the final spin, reels 1 and 5 transform into a single randomly selected symbol (excluding Wild and Scatter), while reels 2, 3, and 4 are filled with stacked versions of the chosen symbol, multiplied by their respective reel values.
Free Spins with Multiplier Potential
Landing two Scatter symbols activates 5 Free Spins, where similar mechanics apply. Each winning symbol on reels 2, 3, or 4 increases that reel’s value by the number of matching symbols. After the final free spin, reels 1 and 5 again transform into a single symbol, while reels 2 through 4 fill with stacked symbols equal to the stored values, creating strong payout opportunities.
The game uses a heavy, rhythmic soundtrack that mirrors the intensity of a boxing match, enhancing the immersive quality of the gameplay. Visual elements and sound effects aim to place players in the heart of the ring.
A spokesperson for PG Soft stated:
“Knockout Riches is an action-packed title that captures boxing’s spirit, and we expect it to be a heavyweight title in our portfolio. Each spin fuels the adrenaline, as Ruby’s staying power is pushed to the max in her push for glory on the reels.”
