4 Beasts Mahjong - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Maverick Gaming have brought us a new game for fans of the ancient board game of Mahjong which is sure to appeal to many other gamers. The game is played with one prime symbol and four other symbols which appear on the flop deck.

The aim of the game is to match the prime symbol with one, two or three other tiles on the flop desk.

There are three main features triggered by three special symbols, but only one will be triggered during any game. These features will appear in order with the highest-ranking feature being that produced by the Azure Dragon, followed by the Black Tortoise and the Qilin Wild.

The game features include free spins triggered by a scatter symbol and a normal wild which substitutes for all other symbols except the two other special wilds and the scatter.

In all there are five different kinds of basic paying symbols. In order of value these are: Arrow, Wind, Dots, Lines and Character. The number of symbols in each group are three in Arrow and four in Wind, followed by nine in each of the lower-value groups.

Fans of this designer’s work will find many other Maverick Gaming free slots here at Slots Temple, where you can also search for other game-makers’ free slots.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

4 Beasts Mahjong is based on the traditional Chinese game of Mahjong.

The game opens up with the tiles placed on a translucent background, through which we can glimpse an ornate tapestry featuring the special symbols from the game.

The symbols are beautifully designed and are perfect images of the game’s tiles.

The slot also has a great layout for the controls, all of which are clear and easy to use.

Meanwhile, the soundtrack is a delightful soothing track featuring traditional Chinese strings, woodwind and percussion instruments.
