Dynasty Warriors - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Join the elite Dynasty Warriors on their quest in this online slot from Platipus. Dynasty Warriors has five reels, three rows, and 50 always-on paylines.

Match armour-clad warriors, their armour and their weapons to win on the reels. Look out for the mortarboard-clad teacher, who holds the key to the bonus feature in which you get five free spins and three golden spins with a range of multipliers applied.

A progressive jackpot can also be won if jackpot symbols appear on the central row of the reels.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

The symbols and graphics are well-designed, with the game looking and feeling like an epic adventure title.

The animations are designed to build anticipation if a big win, jackpot or free spins feature is approaching. Similarly, the music and sound effects also draw your attention to this.

One lovely touch is the symbols often overspilling the boundaries of the reel slots, which adds to the chaos and reality of the title.

Dynasty Warriors review: our verdict

The bonus features and prospect of landing the jackpots make Dynasty Warriors an engaging game to play. The graphics and soundtrack help to give this title a premium feel; however, the lack of a bet below 0.50 could put some players off.
