5 Lions Gold

5 Lions Gold Slot

Although the game is a sequel to 2018’s 5 Lions by Pragmatic Play, you don’t need to play the original to enjoy 5 Lions Gold, which offers great gameplay on its own. And if you’re familiar with 5 Lions, then you’re guaranteed to love 5 Lions Gold. It is very similar to its predecessor but offers a higher max win potential and includes jackpots and a pick and match bonus. The theoretical return is 96.5%, the volatility is high.

The free spins feature is the main event, consisting of seven different games. In addition, the Golden Reels Random Jackpot feature awards one of three fixed jackpots, while the Cashien Random Reward is a pick and match bonus that can award free spins or a jackpot.

How to play

The developers have endowed the slot with five reels and three rows of symbols. The presence of 243 ways to win with many free spins options increases the player’s chances of forming profitable combinations. To control the slot machine, use the keys on the panel below.

The device starts when you press the round button on the right, but before that you need to adjust the bet size from 0.18$ to 90$. Automatic play is activated by clicking on a key with the same name. Sound settings are on the left side of the screen. An information page with descriptions of functions and coefficients of symbols can be opened by pressing the i icon.

3, 4 or 5 illustrations in a row, counted from left to right, bring a win. The prize chain has a different multiplier and is assembled from symbols drawn by designers in the form of animals from oriental stories:

• Red Dragon;
• Pink firebird;
• Green toad;
• Blue fish;
• Purple turtle.

The apparatus is complemented by card denominations from ten to ace. They have a small coefficient, bringing small winnings. The green-eyed lion is a Wild that appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4. The combinations that make up the wild symbol acquire a random multiplier.

Thanks to the use of HTML5 technology, 5 Lions video slot runs smoothly in smartphone and tablet browsers. Specifications, including return and volatility, in the mobile version correspond to the standard one.

Free Spins

The 5 Lions Megaways Free Spins are triggered when 3, 4, 5 or 6 Yin & Yang Scatters land on the reels. You then have the choice between a whole range of options that are guaranteed to cover your personal risk level:

• 25 free spins with a x2, x3 or x5 wild multiplier
• 20 free spins with a x3, x5 or x8 wild multiplier
• 15 free spins with a x5, x8 or x10 wild multiplier
• 13 Free spins with x8, x10 or x15 wild multiplier
• 10 free spins with x10, x15 or x30 wild multiplier
• 6 free spins with x15, x30 or x40 wild multiplier

Mystery Option: a random combination of the above possibilities If three more scatters land, the free spins are repeated with the one before selected option. By the way, by increasing your bet by 100x, you can trigger the bonus round immediately with the next spin. After all, with the Ante Bet function you increase your chance of getting more scatters in the next spin for 25% more bets.

5 Lions Megaways Jackpot

You don’t have to count on a 5 Lions Megaways jackpot in this game. The maximum potential is 5,000x. But who knows, maybe a 5th part of the series will come out at some point, which will give us one or more jackpots.

Random Reward

This feature can be triggered randomly during the base game and free spins. It can provide free spins or a choice jackpot bonus game, during which players must match 3 matching symbols to win the corresponding jackpot.

If 3 more scatters land during the free spins, players can choose another free spins game after the current round ends. There is no limit on the number of restarts.

Verdict

5 Lions Gold provides an enjoyable gaming experience. The high-fidelity graphics and soundtrack are largely associated with this, as is the seven-in-one free spins feature. In addition, the possibility of winning one of the three fixed jackpots, especially the Grand, will be enough to make this game very attractive for many players. In doing our research for this review, we won a small jackpot with the Golden Reels Jackpot feature, however, we never received the Cashien Random Award despite playing over 1,000 spins.
