Demon Hunt West - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction to Demon Hunt to West

Based on a 16th-century Chinese novel, this slot is not quite what you would expect from an Asian-themed slot. Instead, it is a modern, even futuristic, take on the classic story, which is one of the most popular novels in East Asian history. Some players may be familiar with some of the characters that this slot depicts on its cascading reels, but you certainly don’t have to know the story to enjoy the way it plays out in slot form.

There are 20 paylines that are set out across a 5x3-reel set, which houses some fun features. You can expect to find wilds and free spins, plus the chance to land even more wins as symbols disappear and the reels fall once again. There are also three potential jackpots that you could stand a chance of winning.

Game Theme and Graphics in Demon Hunt to West

Demon Hunt to West is certainly not your average slot, with a fantasy theme that is based on the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. However, it doesn’t look like a traditional Chinese tale, with up-to-date graphics that look more suited to a video game. It’s bold of the game makers to put their stamp on such a beloved aspect of Chinese literacy, but to someone who has never heard of the novel, it’s a slot that works for all the right reasons.

The background of the slot does look a little more suited to your average Chinese slot, with tall mountains silhouetted against the orange sun. However, to the foreground, there are bright orange lines that make up the reels and are a little reminiscent of the Tron graphics, albeit orange rather than blue.

On the reels are playing card symbols as the low payers, but the character symbols have the main importance. These are characters from the Journey to the West novel. Because it was written way back in the 16th century, we can imagine that the slot characters may have been given a little upgrade.

We are not familiar with the faces on the reels, but the game rules tell us that Tan Sanzang, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing all appear. Whilst the names could be attributed to any of the characters, some of their nicknames make it obvious who is who, with Sun Wukong being known as the Monkey King and Zhu Bajie’s alias being Pigsy.

Winnings are multiplied by your line bet, so you should think carefully before deciding on your stake. You can choose between 0.01 and 10 per line, giving you a minimum bet of 0.20 and a maximum of 200 per spin.

It is worth noting that the characters are shown in two forms, one that looks to be their mortal form and the other immortal. They are, however, worth the same prize, although you do need to land three, four or five of the exact same character form, not just the same character.
