This game is no longer available at Wombat Casino. Sorry about that! Why not try Legend of 5 Ninjas slot from Eyecon instead?
The Wombat says: The Legend of 9 Suns slot is based on a Chinese folk tale, where infamous archer Hou Yi won favour with King Yao by shooting down 9 suns. Nowadays we’re only left with a measly one, but that’s enough to give this wombat a good tan, especially when we combine it with a sheet of reflective Bacofoil…
Oh, we do love a good Chinese mythology game – try the East Sea Dragon King slot if you are also a fan.
Rumour has it the archer is generous with his bonuses, so who needs 9 times the sunshine, anyway? What is it with the number nine? We´ve just come off the 9 Masks of Fire slot and that was a good ´un.
Let’s see how the Legend of Nine Suns stacks up shall we?
Look and Feel
Welcome to a lush, green land where the sun shines and bamboo grows. Hou Yi is sporting both a beard and a man bun, so he’s a pretty stylish fella. In fact, everyone in the game is a chisel-cheeked wonder. Oh, and Hou Yi also has a crossbow – which he’s pretty handy with.
You can hear the Chinese influence in the music – there’s the sound of a gong and a very satisfying whoosh when Hou Yi shoots his bow. Plus if you win big, prepare yourself for the spectacular green fireworks of victory. Bonza!
Game Play
The Legend of 9 Suns slot boasts 5 reels and 3 rows and 25 pay-lines. That´ll be just above the average which we´d say is around 20 (such as on the Leaders of the Free Spins World slot and others) You can start the betting at 0.25 and go up to 50.
Your symbols on the reels include: a lovely slice of cake, a teapot, a horse, a handsome fellow and a foxy lady – sounds like the ideal afternoon for this wombat. Plus the archer himself, who will pay out 1.6x your bet for three symbols, 5x for four, and 20x your bet if you land five of a kind.
The J, Q, K and A playing cards make up the lower value symbols, and the wild is the scorching sun symbol – it can replace all other symbols on the reels with the exception of the scatter. And speaking of which, your bonus symbol is blue icon with bonus written on it.
