Harvest Fest Introduction
Players can reap huge rewards in this sumptuous Chinese-themed pokie from Booming Games. With five reels and 25 paylines, it has plenty to offer all types of players looking for a bumper crop of wins, with a 10,000 x line bet multiplier jackpot; wild wins, which are worth double a normal win; and free spins.
While there are no progressive jackpots or bonus features, Harvest Fest still has lots to keep you entertained. The reels are set against a beautiful night-time backdrop with a Chinese bridge, pagodas and a river under a starlit sky. Chinese lanterns hang behind a gold frame, with Chinese writing at the top for the title.
As its name suggests, this pokie celebrates harvest time in China, where the festival is celebrated by lighting lanterns and indulging in mooncakes with loved ones. The symbols all show elements of this autumn festival and include a temple lit by floating Chinese lanterns, an embracing couple, and a funny-looking rabbit wearing a red jacket.
There is also a Chinese dragon, who supposedly had a role in ensuring rain to grow the crops. Pleasant Chinese music is joined by dramatic drums and a pleasant thud as the reels drop.
Reap what you sow
The bet per line, lines and win are bottom left of the screen, next to a spinning spin symbol. To the right of this are the autoplay button and the max bet button. The balance and bet are at the top, next to the title, along with the sound settings and information. With 25 paylines across the five reels, there are plenty of chances to spin winning combinations.
Bets range from 0.03 up to 3.00 credits, with the lowest possible bet with all lines active being 0.75 credits and the largest a massive 75 coins. The lowest-paying symbols are the cards, from 7 up to king, with three kings giving you five x your bet, four paying 25 x and five on a payline bagging you 100 x.
These are followed by the lantern and temple, giving you 250 x for five, and the lovers, which will award you 400 x. The legendary rabbit and the dragon give you 700 x for five; meanwhile, the girl, who acts as the wild, pays out a massive 10,000 x if you are lucky enough to spin five. The wild will help you to make winning sequences, as it replaces any other icon on a payline while doubling the win value.
The mooncake icon acts as the scatter, which multiplies the total bet by three x, five x, 10 x and 100 x if you get two or more in any reel position. You will trigger 10 free spins if you find three or more mooncakes, giving you even more chances to win.
Conclusion
This is a pleasant pokie. Although it does not have loads of bonus rounds, it should appeal to players looking for a very respectable 10,000 x line bet jackpot.
