Exquisite Entertainers

Japanese Geishas are refined entertainers and highly trained in the art of performance and conversation.

The imagery of flowing water and relaxing music helps to slow time down.

The reels fill with three card symbols as low-paying symbols and an eastern lantern, traditional tea set, and oriental fan as mid-paying icons. A sophisticated geisha represents the Wild symbol that substitutes for all paying symbols, and she is the premium-paying symbol. A Koi-fish Scatter pays medium returns. 

Bonus Entertainment

Punters have the choice of activating Retro Bet during each round. This feature presents the chance of multiplying your winnings by up to x10 and costs the same as your current bet level. Koi Scatter symbols pay in any position on the reels and when 3, 4, or 5 of these land, punters win x2, x10, or x250 their stake. 

The Geisha Wild pays handsome rewards when 3 to 4 of these artists land in combination with a Scatter symbol. When this lucky combination occurs, punters win x80, x400, or x2,000 their stake with 3, 4, or 5 Geishas followed by a koi Scatter.

Embark on an Eastern Adventure

The night scene backdrop with hues of blue and traditional eastern music creates an enticing setting for the adventure to play out. Gold dragons guard the treasure trove on the reels and sit on each corner of the slot frame. Adorned with gold and colours fit for royalty, the crisp design work tells the tale of wonderful riches. 

Paying symbols fill the reels along with bonus-triggering icons and players can expect lower rewards when 3 to 5 of a kind of the card royals align. An ancient scroll and golden treasure box pay medium rewards while an older man and a beautiful young woman represent higher payouts. The dragon bell Scatter is the premium symbol and bonus trigger, and Lord Fortune is the Wild substitute. 

Dragon Bells and Pearls

Lustrous pearls enclosed by a gold dragon represent the bonus symbol and when 6 or more of these appear in the base or the Free Spins game, it triggers the bonus game. With 6 respins on the counter and the chance of more landing during the feature, players collect the total of all pearls present. Each land with a value displayed and when green or blue pearls appear, it takes on the value of all the pearls on the reel. 

Three or more bell Scatter symbols trigger the Free Spins game where 8 rounds play out to bring big wins. During the feature, a Power Wild symbol can appear with multipliers of x81 to enhance any winning combination it is part of. When 3 or more Scatters appear during the feature, it adds four spins to the counter.

The paytable includes card symbols 10 to Ace designed to look like brushstrokes of paint and these stylish icons bring lower returns for three to five of a kind. Four different crustaceans represent the mid to high-paying symbols with the gold crab paying the highest rewards. A fierce dragon is the Wild and a golden gong is the Scatter.

Sailing to Fortunes

When three Scatters appear in one spin, it triggers the action-packed Dragon Spins bonus feature, which starts with 9 spins on the counter. Every additional Scatter on the reels adds three more spins to start with. During the feature, the dragon Wild symbol becomes a stacked symbol that occupies the centre reel. Apart from filling the reel, it also becomes a walking Wild to enhance as many wins as possible.

The dragon Wild receives a win multiplier equal to the number of Scatters that triggered the bonus feature. Included in the bonus round is a Gong feature linked to the Scatter. When the gong Scatter lands during the bonus feature, it can award more free spins or it can increase the Wild multiplier. Set sail with the Dragon King and experience the slot sensation made for legends.

The Magic of the East

The developers perfectly captured the beauty of a traditional Chinese home from a bygone era and complimented it with relaxing eastern sounds. Abundant gold finishes and vibrant red hues all confirm this is a slot inspired by the eastern region. The slot plays out in springtime as two trees proudly display their blossoms next to the reels. 

Paying symbols appear as card symbols 10 to Ace for lower returns with a paper lantern and red gift envelopes for slightly higher returns. An ancient Chinese Junk ship and golden ingot with coins represent medium rewards while a picture of a little girl hugging a koi fish pays premium returns. A happy samurai is the Wild symbol and only appears on reels 2 to 4.

When the Stars Align

Bonus star symbols represent the Scatter and hold the key to all the bonus features in this slot game. When 2, 3, or 4 Scatters land in one spin, the Hold ‘n Spin feature triggers with the triggering Scatters in place. Three respin rounds offer the opportunity to collect more Scatters until you have five. This triggers the Divine Pick Bonus.

Here, players must pick one of seven stars visible on the screen and the star reveals how many spins they win. The next collection of stars offers win multipliers for the free spin game. Players can win up to 10 Free Spins with a multiplier of up to x10. Enjoy the privilege of stars aligning in your favour with the chance to win exciting prizes along the way.

Beauty and Serenity

A calming slot setting meets players where soft pink cherry blossoms bloom and a stream flows beneath a wooden bridge. The developers took care with creating a visually stunning slot game and paired it with an equally relaxing soundtrack. A breeze gently blows leaves across the screen and the wooden finishes add to the nature scene. 

Card symbols created from branch-like material represent lower-paying symbols and pay in combinations of 3 to 5 of a kind. Eastern trinkets represent the medium rewards which pay out when 2 to 5 of a kind line up. An Asian lady with her umbrella represents the premium rewards in combinations of 2 to 5 of a kind.  

Winds Blowing in Your Favour 

Following any normal spin, the Winds of Wealth feature can trigger at random, where a wind gust removes lower symbols from the reels to fill the spots with higher-paying icons. Mystery Stacked Symbols can appear on each reel and guarantee the same symbol in each position for every spin. A Maneki Neko cat represents the Scatter symbol and awards a payout before triggering a bonus.

With 3, 4, or 5 Scatters in view, players win 10, 15, or 25 Free Spins respectively. The Scatters pay 3x, 10x, and 50x the stake before starting the bonus feature. During the Free Spins feature, the Winds of Wealth bonus has a higher probability of triggering and more Scatter combinations can retrigger the bonus.
