Slot Review: Kathmandu

Kathmandu (also called Katmandu) is the capital city of Nepal, as well as considered to be one of the most beautiful and ancient cities in the world. This gateway to Mount Everest is home to several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and became famous in the Western world during the 1960s for being part of the infamous Hippie Trail. Hinduism and Buddhism are the two major religions of Nepal, with tourism often called “the third religion” of Kathmandu, which is flooded year round with backpackers, pilgrims, and wanderers from around the globe. The Kathmandu online slot machine game is a tribute to the rich history and culture of this town.

Kathmandu is a slot machine title by Microgaming. Coin values start at one cent and range upwards to twenty-five cents, with max coins of one hundred eighty making the top per-spin wager one of forty-five dollars. The jackpot is six thousand coins, or fifteen hundred dollars on a maximum bet.

The graphics of this slot game would not be counted among Microgaming’s best, to be perfectly honest. The images are mostly depicted in colors of blue and green, with letters and numbers in jewels tones filling out space on the reels. You will see an ancient Nepalese bell, a bejeweled elephant, and a nap of the city on the reels. The prayer wheel is wild and the bell is the scatter symbol – get at least three of these icons to trigger fifteen free spins at a random multiplier amount. In a simple bonus game, correctly choose the color and/or suit of a hidden card for the chance to quadruple your winnings!
