Kung Hei Fat Choy! or, Happy New Year, may well be the signature cry of Microgaming’s newest Gung Pow online slot. Released on the first week of January, the online slot is all based on the Chinese New Year, which is celebrated in January.
Gung Pow Slot’s 243 Ways to Win
Gung Pow has 5 reels and 243 ways to win. The graphics and sounds are Chinese. The unique format and playing structure offer players huge potentials to hit it big. Both the base and bonus feature afford players great entertainment and rewards.
This is a high variance online slot which basically means that players have a-less-than-often time to hit it big time. And once that jackpot is won, the reward is truly, awesomely, big!
Stakes and Jackpots
For the 243 ways win to activate, a player has to place a minimum bet of 50 coins. Increasing bets must be in 50-coin increments. That may seem too much for some but one must remember that each and every single spin gives a player the chance to win the pot prize of $90,000.00 if all the odds, such as free spins and multipliers are, lined up.
Wilds and Scatters
The symbols are all Chinese and the standard set of playing card reel symbols. The Scatters are the Chinese coin symbols whereas the Wild is the Gung Pow logo which can replace all symbols except for the scatter symbols. Three scatters anywhere on the reels will launch the free spins feature.
Bonus Features
The free spin feature gives the player 15 free spins if three or more scatters land anywhere on the reels. What makes this bonus feature more rewarding is that included in the free spin feature are 3x multipliers. Yup! It is during the free spins round that a player gets the chance to win the huge jackpot prize. There are no other bonus games featured in this online slot but the huge possibilities of the free spins feature makes up for the lack.
Summary
Gung Pow slot is a must play. The level of expectation and anticipation is high as in one single spin; it is possible to win the jackpot!
