About Xingyun Baozhu
Xingyun Baozhu may be a bit of a mouthful for Westerners to pronounce, but this Eyecon developed slot machine is Chinese-themed, so the title goes with the territory. Xingyun Baozhu literally means “lucky firecracker” so you know where Eyecon were going with this title. Like many other similarly themed games, this one deals with luck and fireworks. Chinese lanterns make up a good number of the symbols in this game, which is played over 5 reels and 25 lines, and all those lines are adjustable. Players can bet anything from 0.01 up to 0.50 per line, so the slot comes with floor and ceiling bets of 0.01 per line per spin, and 12.50 per spin, respectively. Land 5 of the firework symbols on a line to win 3,000 coins in this game, which has a fair 94.9% RTP (return to player) rate.
Special Features
Firecrackers appear as wild symbols on the first, third and fifth reels. They will replace any other icons save for dragon symbols and can triple the value of any winning combinations in which they play a part.
Scatters appear as dragons, as mentioned. These symbols can trigger a free spins bonus if 3 or more appear on the reels. Players can also pocket scattered wins worth 2x, 5x, 15x or even 300x their total bet when 2, 3, 4 or 5 appear on the reels of the game.
Following any win, players can choose to gamble their winnings. When they do so, they will get to play a 50-50 game of chance. We wouldn’t really recommend this feature, though, since your odds of success aren’t great.
Bonus Feature
Players will always start the free spins bonus in this game with at least 15 free spins when they land 3 scatter icons on the reels. They could, however, start the bonus with 20 or 25 free spins if they pocket 4 or 5 scatter icons. During the feature, all firecracker wilds will expand to occupy whole reels. The free spins bonus round can be retriggered, with players able to retrigger it up to 15 times in total.
