A Slot That Puts Fun into Fantasy
Fantasy games are always very popular among online slot players, but it has to be said that they can sometimes take themselves just a little too seriously. Don’t get us wrong, we love detailed back stories and hardcore RPG-style features as much as anyone else, but occasionally we’d much rather just sit down and play a game that has a sense of humour. Fortunately, we can’t be the only ones who feel that way, because the development wizards over at Nolimit City have recently created a slot called Dragon Tribe which suits that mood perfectly.
Enjoy At Least 4,096 Ways to Win
Dragon Tribe has six reels and four rows, and gives you an impressive 4,096 ways to win with every spin. However, this is a game featuring Nolimit City’s xWays mechanic, and so the number of ways to win can increase to even higher levels, with a staggering 20,736 ways to win being available when all six reels are expanded to the maximum. We will tell you more about that shortly.
The six reels are presented within a stone structure which stands in what looks like a prehistoric landscape. This is a cascading reels game, so when you land a win the symbols involved in that win will explode and new symbols will cascade into play from above. The symbols, which are shown on slabs of rock, include bones arranged to show the playing card ranks of 9, 10, J, Q, K and A, portraits of five different dragon-type creatures, a female character wearing face paint, a Bonus symbol, an xWays mystery symbol and an xNudge wild symbol.
All of the visuals have a colourful cartoon style which reminded us of the style adopted in the 1960’s animated television series, The Flintstones. The audio, by comparison, isn’t at all cartoonish, but rather more reminiscent of a soundtrack that you might hear in an adventure film. Add in some great animations – such as dragons flying in the background as you play – and Dragon Tribe is a game that will delight your eyes and ears in equal measure.
Dragon Tribe xWays Mystery Feature
The xWays mystery symbol looks like an X, and can appear on any of the reels. When it does so, it will expand the reels to show two or three matching symbols. This reel expansion also increases the number of ways to win, so if you manage to get a series of cascades with several xWays mystery symbols thrown in, the ways to win can soar very quickly indeed. As mentioned earlier, when all reels have been expanded as far as possible, the number of ways to win is 20,736.
Dragon Tribe xNudge Wild Feature
The xNudge symbol looks like a dragon egg, and can appear on the second, third, fourth and fifth reels. When this symbol appears, it will nudge – one cell at a time – to the bottom of its reel, and with every nudge it will increase a multiplier value by one. The maximum value that an xNudge wild can have is x6, and when the symbol has reached the bottom of the reel it will turn that entire reel wild with the final multiplier value being applied.
Dragon Tribe Dragon Spins Feature
The main feature in this game is Dragon Spins, which is a free spins round that is triggered by getting three or more bonus symbols on the reels. When triggered, this feature will give you a choice between two different modes. The standard Dragon Spins mode is described as one that will enable you to win more often, and in this mode only the xNudge Wild feature is active. The Dragon Spins Extreme mode, on the other hand, involves higher risk with the potential for higher rewards, and in this mode the xNudge Wild will be active and at least one xWays mystery symbol will appear on each initial cascade.
Whichever mode you choose, every third winning cascade will transform one of the dragon symbols into a wild for the remainder of the feature, and you will also be awarded two more free spins.
An Explosive Slot
‘Producing a cascading slot with both xWays® and xNudge® has been an exciting challenge to tackle, and gave us the opportunity to create an explosive slot with true win potential,’ said Per Lindheimer, who is Product Owner at Nolimit City. ‘Making the player select his preferred version of Dragon Spins bonus mode, brings something truly unique to this game.’
