Asia was, is and always will be fascinating for Europeans and North Americans, it’s a part of the world that still preserves mysteries and traditions that capture the imagination.
On the other hand, the Asian market is a very important battleground for game developers, there are plenty of hardcore players in that part of the globe.
With Happy Riches, Net Entertainment are trying to kill two birds with one stone: fascinate the European and North American players and also deliver the Asian players a slot that is tailored to their needs.
Theme
Happy Riches is as Asian as they get, with traditional music in the background and very familiar symbols on the reels. The whole game seems to take place on the doorstep of a pagoda somewhere in the Far East.
The most valuable symbols in the game are the Golden Dragons, inspired by the Chinese culture, but there are also Koi fish that are mostly related to Japan. The other symbols are oranges, cymbals, lanterns, the waving cat statues that we find in Feng Shui stores.
Betting Options and Functions
The game has five reels and three rows, with a total number of 30 paylines. The minimum stake value is 30 cents per spin and the maximum is 75 euros. For a winning combination you need to get three or more identical characters on a payline, while the highest win you can get in the base game is 166 times your stake.
This product has a solid return to player (RTP) rate of 96.32%, and the volatility is medium to high. This should be a pretty enjoyable game because wins will be quite often, there’s a calculated hit rate of just over 44 percent.
Features
The big wins can come outside the base game though, let’s see:
- Free Spins
The Free Spin symbol is the scatter in this slot, and when you get four or more in a spin you will be given a special round of free spins. You can get between 10 and 30 free spins, depending on the number of scatter symbols you land.
During the free spins session the wild symbol appears in stacks of two or three, increasing your chances to hit winning combos. Moreover, every win that you get in the free spins round has a 3x multiplier applied to it.
So, if the planets align perfectly and you get a full screen of wilds in a free spin, you can receive 15,000 times your stake.
- Double Symbol
These are special, they count as either one or two symbols, even though only one position is occupied on the reels. That leads to the possibility of having winning combinations of up to ten symbols instead of just five.
Conclusion
Happy Riches is a remake for the Asian market of Flowers, another pretty popular slot from Net Entertainment. The original was and still is a very good slot, and the same can be said about this version.
Playing this can be a lot of fun, mostly thanks to the high hit rate and the pleasant graphics. Moreover, you have to admit there is some magic to Asian symbols and that traditional music. So start chasing the Golden Dragons in this game and find your fortune!
