Beast of Wealth Slot Machine – Free Play & Review

Play n Go went big on the Wealth angle with three different games that they released lately, where in addition to Beast of Wealth we’ve also gotten Temple of Wealth and Celebration of Wealth.

The focus is on riches, a promise made to players that enjoy the Chinese theme and the focus on the local culture and things considered lucky there. The graphics quality can only be good, considering the company that’s offering this game.

For the symbols, it starts with Royals, which is not great, but then continues to images of the Yin Yang logo (scatter), the Gong (wild), plus Red Dragons, White Tigers, Red Phoenix Bird and Green Tortoise.

Developer

It’s Play n GO that gives us this slot machine, and it’s one of the top names of the industry, a developer that releases dozens of new games each year. It looks like they launched about 1 new game each week in 2020, so they’re going to end with over 50 titles added to their collection.

Graphics are always impressive, features tend to be good as well, and top payouts will give you a chance at wins of over 5,000x the stake more often than not.

How To Play It

You select the bet directly, using the options listed in the middle of the bottom section. The smallest wager shown is $1, while the highest reaches $100.

Played on 5×3 reels, Beast of Wealth delivers 243 potential ways to win. As is usually the case, the combinations get formed via 3+ symbols of the same type, which are on 3+ consecutive reels (they have to start from reel 1 as well). It’s considered a standard setup these days.

Special Features

Via scatter symbols, the ones showing you the logo with the Yin Yang, the game gives you 8 free spins and a chance to retrigger them, in which case you get the same 8 rounds again. You pick one of the four beasts, to replace all other beasts during this feature. So, rather than play with four high value symbols, only one will be present, and the odds of getting big prizes increase considerably.

As you can see from the pick screen, you are being told how many Beast symbols will be on the reels, ranging from 118 Tortoise, to 108 Phoenix, 98 Tigers or 88 Dragons. A fifth option allows you to Mix the number of symbols and the beast, at random.

The Gold Reel is another concept that’s present in this game. You are going to get 1 to 5 Gold Reels, at random, only during paid rounds. Get a wild symbol to land there, and oen of the progressive jackpots can be paid.

Wild Gong symbols are to be used as substitutes or for their own combinations (10x the stake).

Maximum Payouts

The top prize of the game has the potential to reach 5,000x the stake, though that would be over the course of several free spins, I’d assume. With individual wins of up to 10x the stake, and 243 ways to win, the most that a single round could give you is 2,430x the stake.

As I mentioned above, triggering a progressive jackpot requires a wild symbol to land on a Gold Reel. The higher the bet, the better the odds for the feature that follows. The four jackpots are the Grand, Major, Minor and Mini.

Summary

Beast of Wealth certainly looks like a slot machine which could be a lot of fun, as it adds both interesting features and progressive jackpots to the mix. It’s mostly designed with the Asian market in mind, but anyone can give it a shot, it offers enough to be a good choice.
