The Eastern Asian themed games are quite popular and this one has a great potential! The background looks nostalgic and beautiful, the Asian temple on the mountain behind the clouds and a garden... 

The reels are semi transparent and there's a gigantic egg on top of it. There's a sort of mystical feel to the game, maybe because of the Phoenix, maybe because of the symbols and graphics. 

All in all it looks amazing. The tune playing is a traditional Asian one, relaxing and soft.

The pay table consists of 8 regular paying symbols, out of which 4 are low paying set of royals A, K, Q and J. They look plain and simple, they differ in colors and that’s about it, the designers could’ve done a better job here for sure.

The high to medium paying symbols look like a Gold Ingot, Red Ornament, Jade Amulet and a Scroll where the Gold Ingot icon is the most rewarding. The Phoenix Rising From Ashes is the Wild while the Egg acts as a Scatter.
