Dragon Watch Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Dragon Watch is a good example of what you can expect from Nucleus Gaming slots. The storyline is clear and engaging, and the dragon themed graphics are thoughtful and appealing. 

This is a slot designed with a far from traditional approach, but that gives it the huge advantages of being innovative, modern, and unique. It’s a slot we think all players can get into, so why not just start spinning and enjoy the journey; learning about any new features as you play. Unless you feel a sudden heat on your neck, of course. If that happens just run!

Graphics & Soundtrack 

This slot opens to a misty view of a forest and a barely there old building. This could be an ancient castle, as the reels seem to be part of a boundary wall, guarded by a fierce looking dragon.

The symbols in this slot each sit in their own circle. Rather than spinning reels these circles all rotate to show their plain side before revealing a new set of freshly reshuffled symbols. This is an unusual approach that adds a nice twist to this slot.

There’s a decent set of icons in play, including the golden eggs, knights, crystals, swords and dragon’s teeth. The standard playing card royal symbols make up the numbers.

The soundtrack to this slot will immediately bring Game of Thrones to mind, with its dramatic beats and rousing highs and lows. There’s a risk here of simply settling for the obvious, but to be fair the music really is both very well done and absolutely perfect. On the flip side, the sound effects are pretty basic, being mainly a creaking door noise as the reel images flip over.

Dragon Watch RTP and Variance

There seems to be no record of either the return to player rateor variance level of this slot. That is actually pretty typical of Nucleus Gaming titles, but the reason for this approach is also a mystery! The only way to get an idea of these stats is to spin the reels for a while in fun mode, and see how it feels to you.

How to Play Dragon Watch 

This isn’t the most intuitive slot, but if you get stuck this brief guide should help you out:

Dragon Watch Bonus Features 

We love slots with fun bonus opportunities, and this one definitely delivers.

Let’s start with the random bonuses.

Dragon’s Breath

A dragon breathes fire onto random symbols which burn and reveal icons that create matches on winning lines. 

Dragon’s Gaze

The fiery creature’s red glowing eyes can suddenly trigger up to 8 random symbols to create a stack, and award a 3x multiplier rate. 

Dragon’s Call

Following a huge roar that’s so noisy it shakes up the reels, they all move up or down a space, and possibly create some new win opportunities. 

Golden Dragon Egg Wilds

These act as a substitute for the standard symbols, and grabbing 3 or more triggers the 5 free spin reward, with a bonus twist. Before the free spins are released: 

The reel symbols rotate to show identical plain images.

Players can choose a number of grid locations, 1 for each wild icon that triggered the bonus, which means choosing 3-5 of them. 

The 5 free spins are triggered after the new reel symbols are revealed. Each specially chosen symbol space has transformed into one of several randomly allocated special bonus awards. These include up to 4x multipliers, up to 5 extra free spins, and instant extra credit awards of up to20x the current bet.

There’s something special about a dragon themed slot. Perhaps it’s the special blend of fantasy, adventure, and fairytale that draws you into your imagination? Whatever the reason, Dragon Watch delivers everything you could want from an online slot, from well designed symbols to plenty of bonus opportunities. 

If you are in the market for another close encounter with these fiery beasts then you’ll enjoy Dragons Myth slot. It features a young heroine who took on a whole pack of them and won. This is an action packed game with plenty of bonus rewards up for grabs as you play.
