To start playing, choose a suitable bet from a minimum of just $0.20 and $40. Click on spin or select the auto spin option for automated playing. A win is achieved by hitting at least 3 matching symbols on any adjacent reel.

The game is designed with low pay symbols; royals 10, J, Q, K, and A worth 0.5x to 1.5x while high-paying symbols include trucks, watches, steering wheels, KITT red lights, and Michael knight 2x-4x the stake.

Theme, Design & Music

Knight Rider is a movie-themed slot, which you will figure out immediately as the inro is pulled directly from the show to get you in the mood. The reels are set against a background with a moody desert and KITT on the side. Classic EDM tracks play in short bursts during the main game but are allowed to play continuously during the bonus game. There is also an occasional voice-over of Michel Knight and KITT during the spins. The visuals are pretty impressive, nothing short of what you would expect from NetEnt.

Special Features

Walking Multiplier Wilds

Each wild that lands carry a multiplier with the same value as the reel they land on. For instance, a wild on reel 5 has a multiplier of x5. When used in a win, the wilds move one position left and increase the multiplier accordingly.

Free Spins with Laster wilds

Hitting at least 3 scatters on reels 2,3, and 4 activates 10 free spins. For every 3 special knight symbols collected, a player moves up a level where they are awarded 2 additional spins plus 1 laser wild. The number of laser wilds you’ve managed to collect at the start of free spins is added to the reels.
