William’s Quest (Swintt) – Review & Demo Play

William's Quest Slot Overview

I've put plenty of spins into William's Quest by Swintt. It's a video slot built around 3 or 5 reels, 3 rows, and 12 or 24 ways to win. Stakes run from 0.10 to 100, with a 96% RTP, medium volatility, and a 20% hit frequency. The max win caps at x180. The base game holds interest, then steps up a gear when features land. The maths feels balanced, though you can get some swings, which suits a quick session or a steady grind.

Game Rules in William's Quest

Win by landing 3, 5 or 7 identical symbols on adjacent reels. In the standard 3x3 layout you always play on 8 win lines. When Super Spins trigger, the grid shifts to 5x3 and the format moves to 24 ways to win. The game uses a credit system: it's 5 credits per spin, and the value of each credit can be changed. That gives a bet range from 0.10 up to 100, letting me keep stakes tight while I chase feature triggers.

The spin button sits at the bottom, with bet controls to the left and extra settings tucked in the right menu. The slot has 21 symbols in total, with six of them able to activate a bonus game. Lines can connect across multiple paths, so a single spin can feed into a longer count of matching symbols. That's handy for those 5 and 7 symbol outcomes the rules refer to, which I've found key for nudging balance between bonus games.

Game Detailed Manual - William's Quest

To trigger the Love Letter, collect three items: Scroll, Feather, and the Arrow. Land 3 or more of the relevant symbols in a winning combination to add each item. Once all three are collected, William writes his story and fires the letter to the Princess, awarding 3, 4, or 5 Super Spins. The machine then switches from 3x3 to 5x3, and plays the granted spins with the lowest bet value used to trigger the feature. After the round, it reverts to the 3x3 setup.

Thimble Rigger is a pick feature. You guess one of three cups hiding changing rewards. The number of picks depends on how many bonus symbols formed the trigger: 3 symbols award 5 picks, 5 symbols award 6 picks, and 7 symbols award 7 picks. Before each pick, rewards shuffle. There's also a small chance that one of the progressive jackpots sits under a cup, which adds a bit of edge to each selection, especially when you've built up several picks.

Sword Fight gives you a limited amount of strokes to defeat an opposing knight. There are three hit zones, and larger zones are easier to strike. With 3, 5, or 7 trigger symbols you get 4, 6, or 8 strokes, and defeating the opponent carries a small chance to drop a jackpot. Archery is a skill shot set. You get 5, 6, or 7 shots, and the closer you land to the centre, the bigger the reward. The final arrow has a special jackpot chance.

Bonus Features in William's Quest

Across the four features, the game builds a neat loop between collection and short mini-games. Love Letter feeds Super Spins on the expanded 5x3 grid, while Thimble Rigger, Sword Fight, and Archery each add their own risk-reward rhythm. I like that 3, 5, or 7-symbol triggers scale the number of picks, strokes, or shots. That keeps low stake play engaging, as small wins still push progress. There is also a Buy Bonus option for players who want to jump straight into the action.

William's Quest also ties in two progressive pots. Gold Jackpot is a progressive jackpot with a contribution of 30% of the player's stake leading to a bonus game and a guaranteed minimum prize of DKK 5,000. Super Jackpot is a progressive jackpot with a contribution of 20% of the player's bet leading to a bonus game and a guaranteed minimum prize of DKK 100,000. Each can trigger in Thimble Rigger, Sword Fight, or Archery, with published odds per penny contribution as listed in the rules.

Pros & Cons of William's Quest

I rate the base maths as standard, with the 96.00% payback sitting right where I expect. Max win tops out at x180, so this is more about steady feature cycles than huge peaks. Design is fine, and the short mini-games break up spins well. Starting bet at 0.10 per spin suits me when I'm testing. Buy Free Spins is a handy option if I want to skip the build. Overall, quality feels solid, though I keep expectations measured.

William's Quest Paytable and Symbols

The paytable lists stepped tiers for 3-, 4-, and 5-of-a-kind wins. Top symbol pays x180 for five, x60 for four, and x20 for three. The next groups run x160/50/16, x140/44/14, x120/40/12, then x100/30/10, x80/24/8, and x60/20/6. Lower tiers include pairs of x8/4/1.6, x6/3/1.4, x5/2.4/1.2, and x4/2/1. These values scale well with small stakes, making frequent counts of 3, 5, or 7 symbols worth tracking. From my logs, those mid-tier pays do a lot of the work between features.

Combinations can span multiple lines at once provided a continuous path links each symbol. That way, matching sets on a horizontal and a vertical can combine into a longer total, settling as the highest valid 3, 5, or 7-symbol outcome. In my sessions, those extended connections mattered in base game play, while Super Spins on 5x3 moved more of the weight to ways hits. It's a tidy spread of payouts that fits the compact x180 ceiling.
