5 Lions Gold Slot

Another good thing about the game is the payout principle. It is a 243 ways to win game so it pays each time when at least 3 matching non-feature icons hit adjacent reels starting from the leftmost one. Although the paytable looks a bit low and icons like playing cards pay less than x1 the bet, 243 ways to win make the game pay better or even much better when icons like Turtles, Koi Fishes, Frogs, Phoenixes or Dragons land on the reels and award up to x7 the bet or up to C$630. Combined with very high volatility, 243 ways to win may produce roaring wins up to x7,000 the bet. The bet is ranging from C$0.10 up to C$90 per spin so Canadians who opt for playing 5 Lions Gold for real money may indeed expect the best payouts, in fiat currencies as well as cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. Again, the broad range of betting options makes this slot a good choice for fans of penny slots as well as for high rollers. An animated green-eyed Lion is a Wild symbol. It appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 and substitutes for non-feature icons but not for Scatters. A black and white Yin and Yang sign is a Scatter; it appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 and triggers a free spin feature arranged in an interactive and exciting way.

Players trigger free spins by hitting three Scatters during the base game. The feature gives a choice among 7 options, 6 of which are sets of certain numbers of free spins (6, 10, 13, 15, 20 or 25) and Wild multipliers (x2, x3, x5, x8, x10, x15, x30 and x40). The bigger the number of free spins a player selects, the lower the Wild multipliers he gets. For example, 6 free spins run with x15, x30 and x40 Wild multiplier while 25 free spins run with x2, x3 and x5 Wild multipliers. The 7th option is a mystery choice offering a random number of free spins with randomly chosen Wild multipliers. If 3 or more Scatters appear on the reels during free spins, the feature retriggers and runs anew when the current free spins session is over. Each time the feature retriggers a player may choose another combination of free spins and multipliers or opt for the mystery choice. There is no limit on retriggering of free spins.

The game is equipped with 3 jackpots including Minor, Major and Grand, x15, x150 and x2,000 the bet respectively. These are random jackpots (also available in the mobile casino version as well) and may trigger at any spin during free spins. The feature activates in a rather unexpected way: it is triggered by reels when they turn golden (and they do every free spin). To hit the prize, players need at least 3 golden reels which award the Minor jackpot; 4 golden reels activate the Major jackpot and, finally, 5 golden reels trigger the Grand jackpot. The jackpot prize may also be won when the Caishen Random Award feature activates.

Caishen is a Chinese God of wealth. As every decent God, Caishen brings his gifts when he pleases, that is, completely at random, regardless of anything and beyond players’ control or efforts. So players do not need to land on reels any special icon or a combination of icons; all they need is luck. Caishen appears on reels like a true God from the machine, during the base game or free spins, out of the blue, and awards the free spins feature or a Jackpot bonus Game. Free spins run at regular rules described above including Wild multipliers and unlimited retriggering. The Jackpot bonus Game is the best of Caishen’s gifts. It is a pick round. Caishen offers 9 golden coins hiding Minor, Major and Grand Jackpots. The task is to guess 3 matching coins which award a respective prize. It looks like it is a safe pick as the feature runs until 3 matching coins are found and one of Jackpot prizes is awarded.
