This Wombat heard that dragons are considered lucky and powerful, so a game called the Dragon Riches slot ticked all my boxes.
Tom Horn Gaming has dreamt up this Chinese themed treat, stuffed to the eyeballs with dragons and glitzy oriental treasures, just what this marsupial loves! This is no traditional fruity – head to the Reel Splitter slot if you want lemons and cherries.
Instead, follow me to the times of ancient China where there are four progressive jackpots waiting for you. There’s a super smart Golden Symbols feature where you play to suit your budget and level of pure nerve.
Look and Feel
This slot has arrived in a regal fashion with a whole heap of gold and high class Chinese styling that’s straight off a classic Asian movie set- very swanky, I must say. I’d say there’s even more gold flying around than you’ll see on the Gold Cash slot machine, and that’s saying something!
Behind the reels is silk red wall. The reels are framed by a pair of fancy red and gold pillars topped in the game’s lead character, dragons.
Topping the reels are four boxes which display the totals for the jackpots on offer. Beneath each of the reels are a set of boxes, each containing one of the game’s five special golden symbols. At this point, it would be good if someone could hit a massive gong, and I will bow and continue.
Dragon Riches Slot Game Play
The Dragon Riches slot is played out over 3 rows, 5 reels and has the 243 Ways to Win mechanic. There’s none of your pay-lines here, you’ll need to head to a more traditional game like Inspired Gaming’s Bear Money slot machine if you want those.
This is very smart looking game that has been designed with your mobile devices in mind, so you can enjoy how this great game on the go. This Chinese themed game offers up a set of symbols that wouldn’t look out of place in the best Asian themed slots.
The higher value icons include a golden statue of a jolly rotund chapss, land 5x of these on an active payline to win by 50x your wager in the base game.
Other high value symbols include traditional coins in ribbons, jade rings, gold ingots and paper lanterns- it’s a Chinese treasure trove! Even the lower scoring icons, the Ace through to 10 of the card deck are a carnival of colour.
The Dragon of the game’s title is the dramatic Golden Wild, and this icon substitutes for all other icons except the Scatter. The Scatter Symbol is ann elaborate symbol
The Bonuses
Golden Symbols
This game comes with an exciting multi-level mechanic. If you want to up the ante and bet bigger, and win bigger rewards, you need to embrace the special Golden Symbols part of this game.
Dragon Riches comes with some very special fancy gold symbols, which are blinged up versions of the five major icons. These fancy alternatives are more valuable than their regular play counterparts but you have to pay accordingly to access them. Different icons come with varying price tags and increasingly large rewards. For example, at the top end of the scale, a golden statue can be worth 88x your wager. Hang onto your hats Wombat Fans, that number 8 is lucky in China!
Depending on how many of the five golden symbols you want to play, the number of these is shown in the special boxes beneath the reels.
The Free Spins feature
Three Scatters will unlock the Free Spins feature with 10 free games.
There’s also a Gamble feature that you can crack on with after any win. Just choose the colour of an unturned playing card and double your winnings or lose the lot. This feature may not be available in all jurisdictions.
The Jackpots
This game is jam-packed with, count them…, four progressive Jackpots. You can check above the reels for the running totals to tempt your gaming. In ascending order there are a Mini, Minor, Major and Grand pots of prizes. The higher your wager, the higher the level of prize pot you will be in the running for.
To get your claws on the prize pots, spot one or more of the Lucky Dragon icons on the reels and then enter a picking game where you will try to reveal three matching icons from a series of dragons- those of the game’s title. Depending on the amount of golden symbols you have, you will gain entry to the higher level jackpots.
