Description
East Sea Dragon King slot from NetEnt takes you on a cruise deep into the sea where you get to seek and claim the long lost treasure of the East Sea Dragon King. This slot offers visually appealing Asian-themed graphics which is combined with catchy background music to deliver an immersive gaming experience.
The slot packs Asian-type symbols which are set on 5 reels and 3 rows. Rather than standard gameplay, you would have to trigger wins using the Cluster Pays mechanic. This means you have to match 5 or more symbols vertically or horizontally to trigger a win.
Though the slot is light on bonus offers, it does give you a chance to trigger nice wins of up to 1,000x the stake.
How to play
The game’s stake limits are nicely set giving players of all budget types a chance to spin the reels. The lowest stake limit is 0.10 which is probably the lowest you will find in the industry. If you’re not playing to risk it all then you should stick to this limit. For high rollers with more money to throw around, they can try the higher limit of 200 coins.
Wins can be triggered horizontally and vertically with at least five of the same symbol type matched and fifteen at most. On the reels are symbols of medallions, ingots, and ornaments. The most lucrative symbol is the green-jade dragon ornament followed by the box of gold nuggets. You will also come across the golden scroll and seashell symbol. At the bottom of the paytable, you will find the gold, silver, and bronze medallions.
The Cluster Pays mechanic means you would have to put in more effort to match symbols and trigger wins and unfortunately, this slot has a hit frequency of 14.6% which is quite low.
