Majestic King Double Symbols — How 10-Symbol Paylines Work

Most slots cap payline combinations at 5 matching symbols. Majestic King doubles that to 10 through its split-symbol mechanic. Every animal symbol on the reels can appear as a double — two icons in one position. Here is what that means for your payouts and why it is the game's most important feature.

How Double Symbols Work

When an animal symbol (elephant, vulture, giraffe, or zebra) lands as a double, it physically displays two icons stacked in a single reel position. The game counts each as a separate symbol on the payline. If you have five reel positions on a payline and every position contains a double of the same animal, that is 10 matching symbols — the maximum possible. The paytable has entries for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 matching symbols, with payouts scaling at each step.

Paytable Impact — 5 vs 10 Symbols

The elephant is the highest-paying regular symbol. At 5 symbols it pays 150 coins; at 10 symbols it pays 300 coins (the game's max single-line payout). The vulture goes from 130 (5) to 260 (10). Giraffe: 110 to 220. Zebra: 100 to 200. The payout roughly doubles between 5 and 10 symbols, which makes landing doubles on high-value animals significantly more rewarding than landing singles.

Random Double Symbols Feature

Aside from naturally appearing doubles, Majestic King has a random feature called Only Double Symbols. When it triggers (announced with gold text on screen), every symbol on the reels for that spin appears in its double form. This means all payline combinations are effectively calculated at double value. It fires randomly in both the base game and during free spins. There is no way to predict or influence when it occurs.

Double Symbols During Free Spins

When you trigger free spins, the wheel selects one animal to be permanently doubled for the entire round. This is separate from the random all-double feature — the chosen animal is always doubled, every spin. If the random all-double feature fires on top of that, you get a spin where every symbol is doubled and your chosen animal is guaranteed to be doubled. These are the highest-value spins in the game.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do double symbols count as wilds?
No. Doubles are regular symbols that occupy two positions. The wild (lion) is a separate symbol. Doubles only match their own animal type.
Can the lion wild appear as a double?
No. The wild lion does not double. Only the four animal symbols (elephant, vulture, giraffe, zebra) can appear as doubles.
Is the random all-double feature different from natural doubles?
Yes. Natural doubles appear on individual symbols randomly. The all-double feature forces every symbol on the reels to appear doubled for one spin. It is rarer and significantly more valuable.
