Chinese Zodiac Slot Review

I was born in the year of the Rooster. I didn’t really know what that meant so I decided to investigate what roosters actually are like! I have learned a lot about myself through this research.

The first thing I learned is that I am more precocious than my peers. Which I thought was an insult until I used a thesaurus and the meaning of precocious is advanced, intelligent, gifted and or talented. So while I may not agree, I am going to own it. Secondly, it told me I like to pursue the opposite sex, and it is difficult for me to resist temptation. I am going to gloss over this for the sake of my marriage and the fact that it has been 23 years. I was assured that a lot of roosters do go on to have long happy marriages so that I will own too. So as the article was ending, they dealt the blow! Why at the end of the article I ask myself? It appears we Roosters are not good at managing financial expenditure and should learn to be better at it in order to avoid financial disaster. Now, this would be the likely cause to end my marriage not my pursuit of the opposite sex!

Chinese Zodiac is present on a backdrop of a stylised design of the Chinese Zodiac wheel. The game is quite austere in appearance and with no sound to talk of it can come across as a bit cold or dull in atmosphere. Having said that the graphics are presented with so much detail, and that along with a few interesting features brings this game to life.

The game plays smoothly on Laptop, Tablet, Macbook and Mobile Phone.

Gameplay

Chinese Zodiac predicts it’s fortune on 5 reels and 25 paylines.

The symbols are all the animals that represent the various Chinese zodiac signs. The detail with which they have been animated is outstanding.The lower paying symbols of the wheel of east fortune are the Rooster, Pig, Dog, Ram, and Monkey. The middle symbols are the Rat, Bull, Rabbit, Snake, and Horse.

The most important symbols here are the Bonus Tigger and the Wild Dragon which can replace all features except the Bonus Tiger.
The control panel is as neat and mechanical as the game. TThere are all the standard symbols that will help you bet and navigate your way around the game that is Chinese Zodiacs.

Features

There are two bonus features:

  • The first one is the Bonus game. 3 or more reels contain stacked wilds the feature is triggered, and you can receive up to 15 free spins.

  • The Second Chance Bonus feature is also triggered during this round.

Uniques Features

The first is the Gamble featureThis feature allows you to gamble your current winnings. It usually takes the form of guessing what color and/or suit a facedown card will reveal itself to be. A correct guess on the color pays 2x, while a correct guess of the color and suit pays 4x your bet.. You can press the Gamble button if you want to try and double your win. You will get to choose red or black, and if it is correct, your win will be doubled. If not you lose your win.

The second Chance Bonus feature occurs when 1 or more reels fill with stacked features. When this happens, if the stacked symbol is the bonus all the other symbols turn into Chinese doors.
If it is not the bonus feature, then the first reel from the left that does not contain the stacked symbol will be filled with Chinese doors.
The Chinese wheel then appears and spins to choose a symbol that is compatible with the stacked symbol. Once this is selected, all the doors will open to match that symbol creating many opportunities for great wins.

Performance

This game is big on features and wins which lifts it on to another level from when you first start playing. This initial feeling is that it will be bland and yield little. Thank goodness the great graphics and spinning wheel change that quickly

Conclusion

This game will appeal to those who have been in the game for a while as the features are exciting and offer more than just the usual free spins. Belatra has paid a lot of attention to bringing something new to the table.
