BONUS GAMES & FEATURES
The slot has several features that can help you win more from the same bet.
- Wild – the wild in the game is the Chinese character, which substitutes for all symbols to make a wining line. It only appears in reels 2, 3, and 4, and it cannot substitute for the scatter.
- Scatter – the scatter symbol is the dragon, and it awards money. Below are the prizes:
- 5x – 50
- 4x – 10
- 3x – 5
All scatter wins are multiplied against your total stake, not your bet per line.
- Golden Symbols – if you want the high-value symbols to pay more money, you have to increase the size of each credit. Each credit increase would activate one high-value symbol and turn it into gold, which will pay more money. You can choose to wager between 8 and 88 credits per spin.
- Free Spins – three scatters will activate 10 free games. The low-value symbols will not be used during the free games, and you cannot re-trigger the bonus during this round.
- Jackpots – there are four types of jackpots here, and they can only be triggered based on the credits you wager. To activate all jackpots, you must wager 88 credits per spin. These four jackpot prize are progressive and are shown to the left. Jackpots are won randomly.
The key to winning the jackpot is to land the wild. Landing more wilds will fill out the money chest. If this money chest is filled, you will have more chances to win any of the four jackpot prizes, but it is still random.
