Dragon 8s Introduction
Dragon 8s is one of our great free online pokies, available on desktop, mobile or tablet. Designed by Amaya and based on ancient Chinese legends, it’s visually appealing as well as rewarding to play. The high definition graphics are beautiful depictions of creatures and landscapes from mythical China, with a soundtrack to match.
Lucky Eights
Rather than traditional playing card symbols, the lower paying symbols in this game are figure Eights surrounded by different coloured dragons. Eight is a lucky number in Chinese folklore, and depending on how many Dragon Eights show up, you could be very lucky as well! The lowest value Dragon Eight is the purple, followed by red, turquoise, orange and yellow.
These symbols will earn you prizes ranging from five times your initial wager for three Purple Dragon Eights, to 150 times your initial wager for five Yellow Dragon Eights.
Mythical Beasts
The next set of symbols feature creatures from Chinese legends: the koi carp, the crane, the panda and the dragon. Each creature is depicted in its natural environment, so the panda is in a bamboo forest, the crane on a lake and the carp in a pool. Bonuses There are other symbols to look out for as well.
The ancient Chinese mask is the Wild symbol. It can substitute for any of the base symbols and it will double the prize of any payline it shows up on. The golden fan is the Scatter symbol - it will pay out no matter where it appears on your screen. Finally, there’s the glowing lantern. This will trigger your Free Spins bonus game if it appears three times or more.
