Did somebody say dragons? The latest 5×3 video slot Dragon & Phoenix video slot is strictly focusing on the rich Asian culture. That means dragons, gold, and many dragons encased in gold! This is the third title in the new Betsoft’s Asian-themed trilogy Red Dragon. All three titles were specifically designed with the Asian market in mind. However, what distinguishes the Dragon & Phoenix from the two previous titles is the potential of the game. This game is more geared towards low rollers, with max winning potential of only 10,000x the stake.
However, that doesn’t mean the game is not fun. Betsoft managed to fit in a couple of interesting features, including potent Wilds that expand in the base game. The biggest feature involves extra rounds that can be retriggered unlimited times – thanks to the Scatters Cascade. We don’t doubt that’s something that will certainly delight the players!
The background of the Dragon & Phoenix slot consists of medium to high volatility and a nice 96.1% RTP. Bets in this 20-payline slot go from €0.2 to €20. If you succeed in hitting the max payout using maximum bet, you are looking at a decent payout of 20,000 coins. Not bad for a low rolling game, right?
SHOW MORESHOW MORESHOW LESSBetsoft is an expert in design, that much is certain. Because we know that the game belongs to this provider, we had high expectations for the visual experience in this game. And truth be told, we were not disappointed in any way! Right from the start, it is obvious Betsoft wanted us to focus more on the action happening on the reels. That is why the background that shows a temple is saturated with colours that fade behind the grid. The positive atmosphere was triggered with the visuals, but the soundtrack is there to round it off. If you listen to the smooth melody long enough, you will start imagining you’re somewhere in China.
The icons on the reels are a collection of famous Asian symbols and relics. A dragon’s claw holding a pearl, gold, a pair of 8s, a phoenix, temple, and dragons – all embellished with gold! They form the higher-value suite of symbols, while card royals have, as usual, lower values. The dragon is the most sought-after symbol in the game as it pays out 500x your stake for 5 instances on a single payline.
The game pays left to right. When it comes to the rules, there’s nothing new. Your only task is to try to collect 3 identical tiles on any of the 20 offered paylines. Oh, and as this is a Betsoft title, after each win you are offered an option to gamble your winnings. You can double it or lose everything – it’s up to you! That option is placed right next to the Spin button below the reels.
Admittedly, Dragon & Phoenix doesn’t boast many super features, but instead you get only two. Maybe more features would provide a greater adventure, but for now, they are more than enough.
If you are a fan of Asian-themed slots and enjoy slots with less risk, Dragon & Phoenix is a perfect game for you. The game is built for fun and enjoyment without stress and hassle. What you see is what you get – both in terms of gameplay and payout percentages.
The 96.1% RTP and medium to high volatility suggest smooth playtime with occasional spikes in action. From time to time, three Wilds will cover your reels giving you a chance to win big prizes. The smallest bet that you can choose in the game is €0.2 per spin. If you prefer to go big, you can go with the max bet of €20 per round. Betsoft made sure to accommodate all types of players, including those who prefer to play on mobile devices.
With 5 reels and 20 paylines, Dragon & Phoenix is a pretty standard video slot with a familiar theme. If you enjoy hassle-free games, try this title. If, however, you enjoy action a wee bit more, you can always try out the two other titles, Bamboo Rush and Caishen’s Arrival, in the Red Dragon trilogy.
