Tiger Palace Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Tiger Palace Review - Introduction

This sumptuous animal themed slot features a tiger as its emblem, and the rest of the paytable is similarly luxurious. The tiger symbol is the most valuable, but the brooch, bell, lamp and lotus aren’t too far behind. You’ll find the letters A, K, Q and J, as well as the number 10, at the bottom end of the pay scale.

Tiger Palace comes loaded with 30 paylines (you won’t be able to adjust these), but the bonuses are the real highlight. Free spins await players fortunate enough to land bonus symbols, but there’s plenty more excitement to be found than just that.

Green orbs award respins and then keep doing so until they stop appearing. Those symbols also pave the way to Tiger Palace’s most thrilling feature of all: jackpots. There are two, the Mega and the Major, and although winning a jackpot is always a long shot, their presence alone is enough to infuse the reels with tension.

The palace doors are open at Design Works Gaming slots online.

Theme, Graphics & Design

Tiger Palace isn’t the most exuberantly designed slot around, but it does feature a colour scheme that’s luscious and beautifully evocative of its Asian setting. The background is mostly purple with some gold leaf style embellishments creeping onto the sides. Although the colour palette works phenomenally well, that is, unfortunately, it for the background, and we would have liked to see a bit more detail in this area.

Happily, things are much improved across the paytable. There’s a fantastic set of symbols on display, especially the tiger and the brooch. Everything on the paytable is exquisitely detailed, much more so than on the background. This makes for a more magical experience and goes some way to redeem the scaled-back setting.

The music is a triumph too, albeit it a short-lived one. The sounds of jangling sitars play as the reels spin, but then they stop, which is a shame. With a soundtrack of this quality, we would have preferred a full-length backing track, but the music is always a highlight when it does play.

Tiger Palace RTP and Variance

Tiger Palace is a reassuringly medium-volatility slot with a great RTP of 96.53%. The top prize is even more exciting at x83,806, but it would be unwise to fixate too heavily on that figure. Massive wins (especially on that scale) are always rare.

How to Play Tiger Palace

Tiger Palace has an uncluttered interface that’s easy to navigate, so you’ll be exploring the palace in no time.

1. All the important game information is accessed by pressing the menu button on the right of the screen.
2. In the subsequent menu you’ll see an option to toggle sounds on/off.
3. Press “paytable/game rules” to see how much you can expect for symbol combinations and to familiarize yourself with the bonuses. 
4. “Exit menu” takes you back to the game.
5. Bet controls are big, blue and difficult to miss on the left. Use the plus and minus keys to set a stake.
6. Autoplay is the smaller of the two spin-style buttons. Give it a tap if you would like the reels to spin automatically (you can set limits on your balance, too).
7. Decide on a budget that’s within your means.
8. Press spin to throw open the palace gates!

Tiger Palace Bonus Features

Tiger Palace comes adorned with three great bonus features, so there’s certainly something for everyone.

Free Spins

Tiger Palace awards 12 free spins to anyone lucky enough to land three or more bonus symbols. These can land in any position across the reels, and you can earn another 12 rounds by landing another set.

Respins

Green orbs will occasionally land. Collect three or more of these to earn a set of three respins. Best of all, any additional orbs on the respin award another spin. Respins end when the total reaches zero.

Progressive Jackpot

Tiger Palace features two progressive jackpots: the Mega and Major. These can be awarded at any time, so there’s always (an albeit very slim) chance that you’ll strike lucky.

Our Verdict

Tiger Palace is an intriguing proposition. It doesn’t immediately dazzle with jaw-dropping visuals or perform graphical somersaults, but it’s a slow burner. The opulent colour scheme of delicious reds and golds establishes a tone of palatial splendour that sets the scene for the bonus features to come.

Free spins and respins are a rare combination. Most online slots opt for one or the other, but having both feels especially generous. Bundled alongside two different progressive jackpots, these features really load every spin with tension.

We would have liked slightly more from the background, and extending the soundtrack would have paid dividends, but Tiger Palace is otherwise a gem.

Big cat fans would do well to pay a visit to the Tiger Claws online slot for another safari!
