Theme
Visually, Asia has some of the most beloved artwork in the world, and China in particular serves as a muse for many slot games. In China, red and gold are considered to be lucky colors, so it only makes sense that's the primary color scheme of these easily adaptable and memorable slot game. The background is a red velvet red with subtle embroidery, meanwhile the frame of the slot has no shortage of gold detailing. Multiple jackpots are sitting at the top of the reel on the right side, and there are golden symbols on the left side. At the very top of the reel there is a treasure trove of gold located on the roof of the game. Of course, the truly eye catching designs lie within the actual reels of the slot.
Symbols
The drum scatter triggers a special feature, while the golden dragon is the highest paying symbol and awards 600 coins for a match of five. The golden koi pays out 300 coins and the golden frog pays out 200 coins. Even the golden junk is valuable, and awards 150 coins. Lastly, for Chinese food fans the golden wontons pay out 100 coins. Meanwhile, the none golden version of these symbols pays out significantly less, and awards 15 to 30 coins. The lowest paying symbols are the letters and numbers. When playing this game, you need to bet 0.88 per spin to 8.80 a spin
Jackpot and Other Special Features
You can land twelve free games when three or more of the scatter symbols appear from left to right. However, the lower paying symbols A,J,K,Q, 9 and 10 will not make an appearance during the free games feature. The feature however can be retriggered! The free games feature ends when no more free games appear on the reel or when the maximum payout is achieved.
This game also has a Jackpot Pick Feature. This feature is triggered when twelve gold coins appear on the reel. If you press a coin, it'll unveil one of the four god symbols. If you manage to land three identical gods, the corresponding jackpot will be awarded to you. There is a mini jackpot, a minor jackpot, a major jackpot and a grand jackpot. If the feature is triggered during autoplay, the game will randomly select coins for the player. Four of the five symbols have a regular version and a gold version. The more golden symbols during a spin, the higher the total bet, the higher the coins multiplier, the all ways pay factor and the number of jackpots that are enabled. You can upgrade major symbols on the reels from regular to golden symbols by pressing the golden symbols on the pane located to the left. If the wild appears, the player could be awarded a jackpot randomly. The jackpot can also be triggered during both the main game or the free games. If you are lucky enough to land more than one jackpot, the gold coin feature will determine the jackpot that is awarded.
Final Thoughts
The elaborate golden versus not golden symbol mechanic really shake up an otherwise standard, Asian themed game. Plus, the various jackpots add another level of flare and excitement I've rarely encountered while playing slots. Overall, this is well made game.
