Wu Jin Cai Yuan Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction 

Wu Jin Cai Yuan is a 30-payline, five-reel slot from Aspect Gaming. The dragon scatters hold the key to the Free Games bonus, which sees reels two to four combine to become one big reel. This can help you to find big winning combinations - if luck is on your side, of course. If you like this game, you may also enjoy the Dreams of Gold slot.

Graphics & Theme

Well, the laughing man and the ornate red script on the opening page certainly herald a Chinese-themed slot. Having experienced other Aspect Gaming titles, however, we’re not going to pass comment until the slot has loaded and we get past the title screen…

The Chinese-inspired soundtrack is a good start and, lo and behold, the reels, background and symbols actually match the title of the game. Well done, Aspect. You’ve got it right on this one!

This is a truly Asian inspired slot set amidst a building filled with gold ingots. The laughing man wild is actually a depiction of the god of prosperity and luck.

Wu Jin Cai Yuan RTP and Variance

The variance of this slot is unknown, but the RTP is clearly well under par. This game is said to offer a long-term return to player average of 93.98 per cent. 

How to Play Wu Jin Cai Yuan

If you’ve ever played Aspect Gaming free play slots before, then the layout of this game will come as no surprise. If you haven’t, here are a few tips to get you started:

1. Find the gear symbol on the left of the reels on your desktop screen. This will give you access to a range of different settings. 
2. In this gear menu, you will find the Bet Settings, the Autospin Settings, the paytable and the sound and speed controls.
3. If you don’t want to use this gear tab, there are controls beneath the reels on the desktop screen that are far more convenient.
4. Use the up and down arrows to decide on your Bet Per Line. These do not allow you to scroll up and down as you might expect, however. Instead, click on them and you will be offered a range of betting choices. Click on one to decide how much you are going to bet on each line. The choices are: 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.5.
5. This will determine the Total Bet that is displayed right next door. The minimum bet is 0.30 per spin, based on 30 fixed paylines. The maximum is 45.00.
6. Any wins are displayed in the bottom right-hand corner in the desktop version of the game, and your playing balance is in the opposite corner on the left.
7. The spin button sits to the right of the reels with an easy-access way of setting the Autospin mode just beneath.
8. Click on Autospin to be offered a range of automatic playing options. These include the chance to decide how many games you want the slot to play automatically, up to a maximum of 100 spins. You can also choose whether you want the autoplay function to stop when your losses go above a certain amount or if you win more than a set figure.
9. You can use the right and left arrows to scroll through the game’s paytable. This gives information about the prizes on offer, as well as the winning combinations available and the special symbols featured in the game. This is where you will also find Wintrack information.
10. Wintrack is an Aspect Gaming feature that is a brand-specific version of typical ‘game history’ information. This tracks your winning and non-winning spins, as well as when you manage to trigger a feature.
11. The amounts of theMega, Major and Mini progressive jackpots are displayed above the reels.

Bet Sizes & Paytable Wins 

You can choose how much you want to stake on each spin by changing the value of the Bet Per Line. The minimum is 0.01 and the maximum is 1.5. The 30 paylines in this game are fixed, and so the minimum bet allowed is 0.30 and the maximum is 45.00. All of the wins are multiplied by your bet per line except for scatter prizes, which are calculated by multiplying by your total bet. Wins on offer for five matching symbols include:

Laughing man wild - 500

Oriental shield - 500

Paper lantern - 400

Firecrackers - 300

Drum - 200

A - 50

K - 50

Q - 50

Wu Jin Cai Yuan Bonus Features 

This game offers a range of bonus features. These include:

Laughing Man Wild

He will substitute for any of the other symbols except for the scatters and lucky coin icons.

Dragon Scatters

In the base game, the dragon scatters can appear on the first, third and fifth reels. Get all three and you will get five free spins and a 1x multiplier. During the free games, the scatter will only appeal on the middle reel.

Free Games 

During this feature, the second to fourth reels combine to make one big reel. This means that there are only three reels during the Free Games bonus. If winning combinations land, the big reel on the centre reel explodes and separates into nine individual symbols. If the Bonus Game symbol, depicted by a lucky coin, lands on the central reel, it will trigger a mini game and the opportunity to bag one of the slot’s three progressive jackpots.

Wu Jin Cai Yuan review

This is a nice-looking game with plenty of vibrant colours and theme-specific symbols. It has progressive jackpots and a range of simple bonuses to keep many players occupied, although some will be disappointed by the narrow betting range.
