Look and feel
Power Dragon is resplendent with the trappings of China’s ancient Imperial dynasties. The reels are set against a background which is strikingly decorated with traditional Chinese patterns, and the reels themselves are guaranteed to dazzle with their gold gilding and red velvet hues. The symbols feature valuable artefacts from Chinese history, and would make excellent prizes on their own.
No attention to detail is spared, with engraved emerald stones set into the rims of the reels working to make this a very eye-catching pokie, and a delight to play.
How to play
Wins are to be had by landing matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel. This means that, for example, matching symbols on reels 1, 3 and 4 won’t pay - but, because symbols can be anywhere on the reel, it does make for an extremely versatile playing experience with an unbelievable 243 different ways to win.
Instead of betting a certain amount per line, bets are made by choosing your bet multiplier using the arrows at the bottom of the screen, varying in increments from 0.01 to 0.50. This lets you change your total bet from a minimum of $0.50, all the way up to $25.00 per spin.
Symbols
The symbols in Power Dragon are a sight to behold. Open the paytable and you’ll notice that their prize values change as you alter your bet amount - the values here are with the highest bet. The playing card symbols, from 9 to Ace, are decked out in royal regalia and pay handsomely. Five Kings or Aces are worth $150.
Moving to the beautifully rendered picture symbols, the pile of gold coins pays out $250 for a line of five - and that’s the lowest value regular symbol! Five of the more sought-after stone lions net you a stunning $750, while the most valuable symbol, the winged golden dragons, is worth a show-stopping $1,000 for all five!
Lucky wilds
The Golden Eight symbol - traditionally held to be the luckiest number in China - is the wild, meaning that it substitutes for all other regular symbols to help you form more of those winning combinations. The Golden Eight appears on reels 2, 3, and 4 - watch as it explodes with light when it helps you to form a winning spin.
Free Spins
The Ancient Chinese coin is the scatter - land three or more on adjacent reels from left to right to trigger the Free Spins round. If the red pockets symbol appears on reels 1 and 5, you'll be awarded a mystery bonus multiplier. Free spins can be re-triggered with the multi-coloured lucky eight symbols, generously offering from 10 to 25 additional free spins.
