| 2 | 5 | 2 | 3 |

BONUS GAMES & FEATURES
Apart from the base game pays, the slot game has symbols that trigger different types of features.
- Wild – it substitutes for a missing symbol to help you form a winning combo. If you land the wild on reels 2 and 4 at the same time, they will expand to cover the entire reel, and the slot game will reward you with five free games.
- Scatter – the scatter symbol is the prince. It pays coins, but it does not trigger free spins. The scatter payout is:
- 5x – 100
- 4x – 10x
- 3x – 3x
Scatter pays are calculated against your total bet. If you wagered 2 per line, the total cost of your bet is 40 coins. If you managed to land 5 scatter symbols at this bet size, your prize is 100 x 40 = 4,000 coins.
- Free Spins – if you landed the Golden Lotus, or the wild, on reels 2 and 4, they will expand and trigger the free games. Once they expand, they will also become sticky. Only reels 1, 3, and 5 will spin during the fee games. Overall, you will receive five free spins.
If you land a scatter symbol during the free spins bonus, the expanded wilds will only function as one scatter symbol per reel, not three per reel. You can no longer trigger more free spins because the wilds are already in place.
The scatter symbols that you land during the free spins bonus round would only pay your coins, but not add more free spins. All bets used during the free spins bonus round are the same with what triggered the two wilds on reels 2 and 4.
SUMMARY
From the Spadegaming company comes Golden Lotus, a 5-reel slot that has an RTP of 97% and a medium variance. Sitting on three reels, the game was released in 2016 and offers 20 pay lines. It also has wild scatters, and free spins.
We will give this slot a rating of 7 out of 10 points in our review. While it does have wild and scatter symbols, their functions were changed, making the slot a little confusing. For one, the wild only appears on two reels, and will only expand if you fill both reels with wild. Also, the scatter does not award free games.
The slot is best played if you are a fan of the erotic / sexy genre. Despite this, the game compensates for what it lacks with the high payouts with then base symbols. At least, your max win in the base game is 5,000x your line bet.
