King Slime is a pre-Hardmodeboss. His appearance is that of a massive Blue Slime wearing a jeweled golden crown and has what appears to be a ninja inside of it. It lacks the crown on the 前代主机版和3DS版 of the game. As King Slime takes damage, he spawns additional ordinary Blue Slimes (and in Expert Mode and Master Mode, 尖刺史莱姆) and will also appear to shrink in size.
If 150 slimes are killed by players, lava, traps, and/or summoned minions during the Slime Rain event, King Slime will spawn. Defeating the boss will end the event shortly after – if all players die (even on singleplayer), the boss will despawn and the event will continue for some time before ending on its own (between 9-15 in-game hours). If the King Slime has already been defeated on a world, it will only take 75 slime kills to spawn the King Slime. If King Slime is summoned manually with the Slime Crown and then subsequently killed, while the Slime Rain is active, the event will end in the same way as if the player killed the King Slime that naturally spawns at the end of the event. This can be quite helpful for powerful players who want to get the Slime Rain event over with as quickly as possible.
Although being a large and resilient enemy, in addition to boss music playing during the fight, King Slime is often regarded as a "side-boss" or "mini-boss" (though there is no official word on this from the developers). It differs from traditional bosses in the following ways:
King Slime can be encountered regardless of the current level of game advancement.
King Slime does not travel or fire through blocks, which creates shielding or trapping possibilities that do not exist when battling most other bosses (though traveling too far from a trapped King Slime can cause him to teleport out).
其特定生成条件与普通敌怪相似更甚于 Boss。
On the 电脑版、 主机版、和 移动版, if the King Slime's target is unreachable, it will teleport upon the player. This can be performed from any distance and prevents easily trapping the boss within a small area.

In 专家模式, King Slime summons Spiked Slimes along with normal slimes as he loses health. Note that these are not affected by Royal Gel (unlike the other, normal Blue Slimes spawned).

It is possible for King Slime to teleport to the player after they died fighting in the outer layers of the world.
Piercing weapons can not only damage King Slime, but also kill the additional slimes it spawns.
The Blue Slimes it spawns can drop Hearts and Stars, which respectively restore 20 health and 100 mana.
Spawning King Slime while in specific areas using Slime Crowns can be a quick, easy way to farm for specific drops, such as souls (pre-1.4 only), Biome Keys, Pirate Maps, Halloween and Christmas drops or Cascade, Hel-Fire, Amarok, Yelets and Kraken yoyos, due to the high number of Blue Slimes spawned during the fight.
By using a Starfury while King Slime is falling down after jumping, it can take over 50 damage for each time he is hit by the star.
Note that King Slime itself does not drop any Gel, but the Blue Slimes it spawns do. This makes King Slime to be a good way to farm Gel, for Flamethrower ammo and Asphalt Blocks.
Killing King Slime on Expert Mode and selling all drops gives 10 gold on average.
When King Slime teleports, it can become stuck inside the blocks around him, preventing its movement for a while.
The images for the ninja inside the King Slime and the crown are stored in separate image files. The King Slime's sprite without them looks similar to an enlarged sprite of a normal Blue Slime.
Despite sometimes being considered the easiest boss in the game, it does the second highest damage of any pre-hardmode boss, only beatable by the Wall of Flesh in Classic Mode or Skeletron in Expert Mode.
King Slime is the only boss capable of spawning randomly even after it has been defeated.
When teleporting, King Slime drops his current crown and seemingly generates a new one upon completing the teleport.
The Spiked Blue Slime and the Pirate's Curse are the only non-invincible enemies in the game without a bestiary entry, and the King Slime is the only boss whose summoned enemies don't have one.
