How to play Micro Knights (members only)
Wins pay for groups of matching symbols that touch horizontally or vertically. Larger clusters pay more, and winning clusters usually disappear to make room for new symbols.
Micro Knights is played on a 5×3 grid with cluster pays.
- Set your stake. Choose your total bet per spin between $0.20 and $100. Wins are paid as multiples of this stake.
- Check the paytable. Open the game's info screen to see what each symbol pays and the exact rules for this version.
- Spin. Each spin's result is decided by a certified random number generator, independent of previous spins.

How winnings work (members only)
What 96% RTP costs per $100 wagered, the 2,500x max win at a $1 stake
The top prize is capped at 2,500x your stake. On a $1 spin that is $2,500; on $0.20 it is $500. When the cap is reached the round usually ends immediately.
Because wins don't depend on lines, every symbol in view can count towards a pay. The paytable lists how many matching symbols each tier needs.
Because winning symbols tumble away and are replaced, one paid spin can produce a chain of wins. All of them count towards that spin's total.
What 96% RTP means
Expected return = stake × 96%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $4.00
RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a medium volatility game.
The published hit frequency is 36.9%, meaning roughly one spin in 2.7 returns something — though many of those wins are smaller than the stake.
Features explained (members only)
3 features explained: wild symbols, tumbling reels, cluster pays
Wild symbols
Wilds substitute for regular paying symbols to help complete winning combinations. They do not normally replace scatter or bonus symbols.
Tumbling reels
After a win, the winning symbols are removed and new ones fall into their place. This can create several consecutive wins from a single paid spin. Also called cascades or avalanches.
Cluster pays
Wins are formed by groups of matching symbols touching horizontally or vertically, rather than along lines.
Strategy tips (members only)
- Size your stake to the volatility. Medium volatility balances hit rate and win size. Expect dry spells between features, but not extreme swings. A simple rule: bring at least 200 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.25.
2 more tips and a session planner
- Bonus wagering: at 96% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $40.00 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
- Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
