Players seeking the best online slots will want to explore Play’n GO’s Dragon Maiden.
With its theme (obviously derived from Game of Throne’s Mother of Dragons character), this five reel title offers:
- sophisticated visual and sound design
- Dragon Re-Spins whenever two or more scatters appear
- Free Spins where the reels themselves expand in height, which are followed by…
- Golden Free Spins, played on a massive 6x5 set of reels.
Theme
Fantasy slots have enduring appeal, and this one is among the best of the genre. The reels are set before a rocky mountainscape, with dragons flying in the distance and the sunset light falling just so. High-quality sound design lends this title further fantasy bona fides.
Gaming symbols include the titular dragon maiden (a clear reference to Game of Throne’s Mother of Dragons, Daenerys Targaryan.), as well as four jeweled artifacts – rings, swords, and coins. The four playing card suits provide lower-value symbols.
When the titular Dragon Maiden’s eyes light up, the symbol acts as Wild. With her burning eyes, she can expand to into a stacked wild up to three symbols high.
This title’s most important symbol, though…
… is the fire-breathing dragon. This symbol acts as scatter, opening the way to Free Spins.
Betting Options and Functions
The rearing and raising of dragons is more art than craft, but Play’n GO’s excellent design team is happy to provide the more analytical, detail-oriented approach that sets their slots apart from the competition.
Instead of along traditional paylines, wins are awarded whenever matching adjacent symbols appear from left to right. This yields 243 ways to win in base play. The oerall per-spin bet range is set simply from 0.20 – 100.00 times the betting currency.
Autoplay is available for up to 500 spins, with optional automatic stops for wins, features, single wins, and bankroll swings of a chosen size. Quickspin is available for players who prefer a quicker gaming tempo.
The overall theoretical return to player ratio is well above the industry average at 96.49%.
