Pragmatic Play, a Malta-based online casino technology supplier, has announced yet another 2023 release, Mystery of the Orient. The game developer partnered with Las Vegas-based Wild Streak Gaming, to release this slot highlighting ancient Asian culture with features like cherry blossoms and warrior ladies.
Played on a 5x3 grid, Mystery of the Orient uses winning ways instead of traditional paylines. Players of this slot machine have up to 243 winning ways in the base mode, with the number increasing in the free spin bonus feature when the reels expand.
This Asian-themed slot machine revolves around a beautiful but dangerous Asian woman armed with a sharp sword. The game’s ambience is that of a dramatic Asian scene, with falling leaves and cherry blossoms.
Meanwhile, players at the best online casinos can trigger a winning combination by matching three or more paying symbols on adjacent reels from left to right.
Symbol-wise, the 9-A card icons are the low-value symbols, whereas the instrument, box, tiger, sword, and warrior lady herself are the premium symbols. Five low-paying symbols can reward players between 0.8x to 1.6x the stake, while the high-value symbols can come with a 2x to 4x payout.
Pragmatic Play also throws in multiple bonus symbols to make the game more rewarding. First, players can collect at least three scatters to unlock 15, 20, or 25 bonus spins. Getting three, four, or five scatters can trigger a 10x, 40x, or 8,000x multiplier.
Gamers should also look for the Mystery symbol, which randomly appears in both game modes. If this symbol appears, it can come with scatters or wilds with 2x to 25x the stake. These multipliers are added on each spin where the wilds appear.
Note that the variance of this video slot is sky-high. But the potential of winning up to 8035x of the stake should make it a worthy risk for all casino players.
Mystery of the Orient comes hot on the heels of other online slots from the developer, including Club Tropicana, Peak Power, and Wild Wild Riches Megaways.
