Dragons Chest - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Inside a castle overrun with mighty dragons, Dragons Chest gives brave knights the chance to conquer the fire-breathing beasts to take home some huge prizes of up to 2,000x your stake in this interactive, 5-reel, 3-row, 25-payline slot.

Featuring three magnificent dragon symbols plus their offspring (the Walking Wilds that we’ll discuss in more detail later in this slot review), this game brings you into the heart of the best medieval tales as you battle for wealth and glory. To win at Dragons Chest, simply line up three or more matching symbols along one of the 20 paylines starting on the leftmost reel.

There are three Wilds that can “walk” in various directions, and these can be used to substitute for any other symbol (excluding the Scatter) to help you land longer winning combinations and bigger prizes. The treasure chest Scatter is also worth watching out for in this slot as this holds three dragons eggs containing free spins, Multipliers, and cash prizes, which we’ll discuss in more detail below.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Dragons Chest has been beautifully designed with detailed graphics and animations to really bring the dragons to life on the screen. The base game is set on the doors to a castle, with bars to keep peasants out. Triggering one of the bonus features will grant you access to the inside of the castle, where even more stunning animations await.

The soundtrack is suitably epic without being distracting and does a good job of adding to the atmosphere, suspense, and excitement of the slot.

Dragons Chest RTP & Volatility

Dragons Chest is a high volatility slot offering an RTP of 95.32%.

Bonus Features

As Dragons Chest is clearly set in a land of mystery and magic, it’s no wonder Booming have included a number of special features to this game, which we’ll look at below.

Walking Wilds

There are three baby dragons in Dragons Chest, each of which is a Wild symbol. When these symbols land, they become sticky and “walk” one position in a given direction for each spin until they walk off the reels:

The green Wild lands on reel 5 and will walk one position to the left each spin.
The red Wild lands on reel 1 and walks one position to the right for every spin.
The blue Wild will walk down the rows by one position for every spin.

Treasure Chest

Land three or more Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels to enter the bonus portal bonus game. From here, you’ll discover the chest contains three dragons eggs, which you can choose from to trigger 10x free spins, cash prizes or 10x free spins with a 2x Multiplier.

Conclusion

Although our initial response to loading the Dragons Chest game screen was a bit underwhelmed, we quickly changed our tune after just a few spins as the quality of graphics and gameplay became apparent. We absolutely loved the baby dragon Walking Wilds. Even when these didn’t provide us with a win, they were simply fun to watch become animated and move around the reels.

The bonus games weren’t as difficult to trigger as we might have expected from a high-volatility slot and were very rewarding, particularly the free spins plus 2x Multiplier win.
