BASE GAME SYMBOLS & PAYS
Below is the paytable for the game. The values shown here do not change even if you bet lower or higher. These values are multipliers, and they are applied to your bet per line.
| PAYTABLE | ||||
| Number of Appearance in a Pay Line | SYMBOL | |||
| Jade Ball | Golden Nugget | Red Lantern | Double Koi | |
| 5 | 10,000 | 1,500 | 1,000 | 800 |
| 4 | 1,000 | 750 | 500 | 300 |

Even if the slot game only has 15 pay lines, it charges twice the coin size per line per round. The smallest wager here is 0.30 per round which bets 0.02 per line. You cannot change the number of active lines.
If you landed three symbols of the Jade Ball in a winning combo at a bet of 0.30, you would win 100 x 0.02 = 2 coins.
The maximum you can wager on a round is 450 coins, which represents a wager of 30 coins per line. If you are lucky enough to land the five Jade Balls, your prize is going to be 10,000 x 30 = 300,000 coins.
To win, you must land at least three same symbols on adjacent reels on any of the 15 pay lines. The combo must start from the leftmost reel. The online slot only pays from left to right, and only the highest win on a pay line is paid, not both.
The exception is the Jade Ball, which pays even if you landed only one.
BONUS GAMES & FEATURES
The slot game has a wild, scatter, and free spins.
- Wild – represented by the golden dragon head, this substitutes for all other missing symbols to make a winning combo. It cannot substitute for the scatter symbol, and it does not pay out money.
- Scatter – the Chinese character is the scatter, and it awards free spins if you landed at least three of it anywhere on the grid.
The pays are:
- 5x – 50
- 4x – 10
- 3x – 5
- 2x – 1
These prizes are coins, which would be multiplied against your total bet for the round that triggered it. If you wagered 450 coins and landed five scatters, you would win 50 x 450 = 22,500 coins.
- Free Spins – for as long as you land three or more scatters, you would select from some boxes that reveal the number of free spins you won. The prize are between 5 and 20 free games.
All wins in the bonus round are multiplied by a number. This number is between 2x and 6x. Before the bonus round begins, you would choose one out of five golden nuggets that would reveal this multiplier.
SUMMARY
