Shining Crown Deluxe

Shining Crown Deluxe Overview

Shining Crown Deluxe is a new version of one of EGT Digital’s best known fruit slots, released on 16 September 2026. It plays on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines, and wins pay for combinations of a kind on adjacent reels from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel. Two Scatters, the dollar sign and the star, add their wins to the line wins.

The game is listed with an RTP of 96.37% and a low volatility (some listings say low to medium), with a hit frequency of about 15%. The maximum win is 1,543x the bet. The demo rules list bets from 0.10 to 1,000 per spin, while casinos usually cap the bet at 100.

Theme and Graphics

The reels sit in a golden frame on a warm orange and red background, with the four Clover Chance jackpot meters – Grand, Major, Minor and Mini – along the top. The symbols are classic: the red lucky 7, grapes, watermelons, golden bells, plums, oranges, cherries and lemons, a golden dollar Scatter, a purple star Scatter and a jewelled red crown as the Wild.

Symbols and Paytable

At a bet of 500, the paytable shows these values:

• Lucky 7: 250,000 for five (500x the bet), 12,500 for four, 2,500 for three and 500 for two,
• Grapes and Watermelon: 35,000, 6,000 and 2,000,
• Bell: 10,000, 2,000 and 1,000,
• Plum and Orange: 7,500, 1,500 and 500.

Line wins are multiplied by the total bet, only the highest win per line is paid, and simultaneous wins on different lines are added together.

Scatters

The dollar Scatter pays anywhere on the screen: 5 pay 100x the bet, 4 pay 20x and 3 pay 5x. The star Scatter appears only on reels 1, 3 and 5, and three of them pay 20x the bet.

Expanding Crown Wilds

The crown Wild lands only on reels 2, 3 and 4 and substitutes for all symbols except the two Scatters. It expands across the entire reel only when it is part of a winning line, and the wins are paid after the expansion. In our screenshots, one crown reel on reel 2 completed a grapes line for 2,000 at a bet of 500, two crown reels on reels 2 and 3 lit up almost every line for 5,000, and two crown reels on reels 3 and 4 paid 3,000.

Wild Hunt Bonus Buy

The BUY BONUS button opens a menu with three Wild Hunt options, which put more Wilds on the screen. The price is deducted from the balance and changes with the bet:

• One crown: 1, 2 or 3 Wilds on every spin, for 4.5x the bet, or 9.3x with Guaranteed Win,
• Two crowns: 2 or 3 Wilds on every spin, for 15x the bet, or 22.9x with Guaranteed Win,
• Three crowns: 3 Wilds on every spin, which always creates a win, for 71.5x the bet.

The optional Guaranteed Win mode makes sure that at least one winning line is formed with the cheaper options, and Buy Bonus Every Spin keeps the selected bonus buy active from the main screen. At a bet of 500, the menu showed 35,750, 11,450 and 4,650. In our session, a three crown spin filled reels 2, 3 and 4 with Wilds and paid 9,000.

Clover Chance Jackpot

Clover Chance is EGT’s progressive jackpot with four levels. The jackpot feature is triggered randomly at the end of any game, and the player then picks from 15 chests. Twelve of them hold coloured pearls – red for Grand, green for Major, blue for Minor and purple for Mini – and three hold level up clovers. Three pearls of the same colour win that jackpot, and a matching clover upgrades it to the next level. Only one jackpot can be won per feature.

Gamble Feature

After a win, the x2 button opens the card gamble. You choose red or black: a correct guess doubles the amount, a wrong one loses it. In our game, a win of 300 could be gambled for 600, with the last cards shown in the history bar. The gamble is limited to a few attempts in a row.

How a Round Plays Out

Most spins are quick: small wins come from the fruits on single lines, and the Scatters pay wherever they land. The big moments come from the crowns. Because a crown only expands when it is part of a win, every expanded reel already means a payout, and with two or three crown reels in the middle, the outer reels decide how many of the 10 lines pay.

The lucky 7 pays 500x the bet for five of a kind, so a line of 7s combined with crown reels is the best possible base game result. The Clover Chance jackpot can drop on top of any spin, whatever the bet.

Shining Crown Deluxe vs the Original

The original Shining Crown is one of EGT’s classic 5x3 fruit slots with expanding crown Wilds and two Scatters. The Deluxe version keeps the same look and the expanding crowns, and adds the three Wild Hunt options and the Guaranteed Win mode.

Who Should Play It

Shining Crown Deluxe is for fans of the classic Shining Crown who want the same simple fruit gameplay with expanding crowns, plus a bonus buy and a progressive jackpot. Try the free demo first.
