Editorial analysis
Elk Studios has 152 titles in our catalog, and Cathedral 9, released 23 October 2025, is one of its Halloween-themed entries with a six-reel scatter-pays layout rather than fixed lines. The RTP figure comes from slot.report alone at 94%; our catalog feed has no independent reading, and the value is unverified. Slot.report also calls the volatility high, matching level 5 on our scale.
Scatter pays on six reels at a 94% return
Two points below par. The 96.08% median from 9,233 catalog games sits 2.08 points above Cathedral 9's 94%, which is a wide margin by Elk standards and worth knowing before a session. Scatter pays means winning combinations count matching symbols anywhere across the six reels instead of along a defined payline. Combine that with level-5 volatility and the profile is one of long quiet runs broken by occasional dense clusters. Our packet lists no bet range, no maximum win multiplier and no cash cap, so those remain open questions until the feed catches up. Bonus buy, Megaways, progressive and tumbling reels are all flagged off.
Suited to a player who already knows Elk's high-variance style, likes cluster-style scatter pays and can accept a 94% return for the Halloween setting. A poor match for anyone who ranks RTP first.
