Dragon Shard

Designed by the South Africa-based studio to stand out of the crowd, Dragon Shard is a true masterpiece among the slots.

With a winning potential of €160,000 and a unique Win Booster ™ that pays both ways, its 5x5 grid makes an ideal battlefield for the epic clash full of wild twists and mysterious turns.

Theme

Far away from the ordinary, in the fantasy Kingdom, Fire Queen and Ice King fight to the last ditch for possession of the Dragon Shard - the ancient artefact that makes its keeper almighty.

Stormcfaft Studios did a great job, and superb visuals and a matching soundtrack really conjure up the mysterious atmosphere: the old castle made of cold grey stone is surrounded by whimsical trees and unapproachable mountains, ready for a fire-breathing attack.

„super stacked Mystery symbols“

The red-haired Queen and her handsome enemy are two top-paying regular symbols, that are followed by their loyal dragons and the mysterious shard. In its turn, the low-value group is represented by four precious stones shaped like the card suits.

The cool thing is:

all regular icons are double stacked while the Queen and the King are stacked to five high.

Since the game’s logo acts as a wild, it can substitute for all other symbols except the scattered eye of the dragon. As usual, scatters pay at any position regardless of pay lines.

Betting Options and Functions

Hidden from the eyes of strangers, the striking medium-volatile battlefield has five reels, five rows, and 40 fixed pay lines.

The wide range of stakes starts at just €0.10 a spin and extends up to €200, but in the case, players opt for the Win Booster™ feature …

… all values are doubled, so the minimum wager equals €0.20 while the maximum limit is impressive €400.

To adjust your wager, choose the coin size and a number of coins per line, or simply select one of the options from the Quick Bet menu.

When it comes to the theoretical RTP, it is set at 96.41% for base game only and at 96.77% for base game and Win Booster™.

Features

Is the Win Booster™ worth the price? Let’s take a closer look at what punters can get in exchange for the extra bet.

First of all, it empowers the game to pay both directions, that means your winning combinations valid not only from left to right but from right to left as well!

Secondly, it enhances advantageous Mystery symbols ...

... able to transform into other icons (including wilds) and create stacks!

Those perky question marks can serve really well during free spins played with Mystery Reels™ loaded with stacks of Mystery symbols.

By hitting at least three scatters, players will trigger 10 bonus rounds with Mystery Reels™ to replace their counterparts 2,3 or 4. Containing only mystery icons, 1, 2 or all 3 mystery reels will be activated by landing three, four or five scattered eyes respectively.

What’s more, during this feature, each scatter will award an additional free spin!
