Medieval Dragons In Online Slots

Added: January 1, 2015

Many online slots players like a challenge. And what can be more challenging than taking on a fire breathing dragon. Therefore leading software providers to online casinos offer dragon themed slot games in their portfolios. This article reviews some of these online slot games.

The dragon themed slot game from software developer Realtime Gaming is titled Mystic Dragon. The background to the reels depicts a rugged mountainous region which is the usual haunt for dragons. The dragon is obviously the wild symbol and the volcano is the scatter symbol. Both of these spew fire in the win animations. The other symbols on the reels with the dragon theme are knight, lady, castle, treasure chest and scroll. The fixed jackpot payout of 20,000 coins is awarded by an unusual combination that consists of three dragons and two knights. Each dragon symbol in the combination independently doubles the payouts. The volcano can trigger up to 100 free spins with the payouts multiplied by 2. Mystic Dragon also offers a randomly triggered progressive jackpot.

Microgaming offers Dragon’s Loot in its portfolio. It has a similar set of medieval themed symbols such as knight, dragon, castle, sword and shield and chalice. The knight is the wild symbol. It appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. In this online slot game the dragon is the scatter symbol. It triggers the free spins bonus round. But first five chests are displayed on the second screen. You select one of them to be informed of the number of free spins and the multiplier.

Playtech has a dragon themed slot machine titled Dragon’s Kingdom. The dragon is the wild symbol and awards the largest line payout. The other high paying symbols include knight, sorceress, potions and spell book. Dragon’s Kingdom uses the playing card icons as low paying symbols. The Dragon’s Kingdom is the scatter symbol and it awards scatter payouts that can be as high as 666 times the total bet. This symbol also awards 15 free spins, initially with doubled payouts. But the free spins multiplier can be increased later. The flip side is that it can also be decreased. Also, there are additional wilds during the free spins. The highlight of Dragon’s Kingdom is the Playtech split symbol feature. This feature gets activated by the dragon’s egg appearing anywhere on reel 5. Then the last symbol in winning combinations splits into two, increasing the number of symbols by one. This can lead to six of kind win combinations.
