Eastern Dreams Game Theme & Storyline

As already mentioned, the game's theme is based around ancient China, which seems to be a popular inspiration at the moment. If you've played other successful Chinese themed slots such as 88 Fortunes (and its various spin-offs), Fortune Tree, Lucky Cat or any of the other seemingly hundreds of similarly themed slots in the past, you'll no doubt feel that some of the symbols and imagery here feel a little familiar. There's a reason this is such a popular theme, though - it really works. The Chinese gambling den imagery works well in the colourful, anything-goes setting of an online slots game, and Eastern Dreams makes the most of this.

Eastern Dreams Graphics

This is an extremely attractive slots game and is highly polished. If this is an indication of the style we can expect to see from all R Franco Games slots, you should expect the brand to become far better known in the near future. The game is big, bold and colourful, and the intricately designed symbols give the entire thing a glossy, luxurious finish. If this is what all of this team's games look like, we'll be sure to check out all of the other R Franco Slot Machines too.

How to Play Eastern Dreams

Eastern Dreams has a total of five reels and 25 paylines. There are three active symbols on each reel, giving you 15 symbols on the screen at all times. Use the controls at the bottom of the reels to choose your preferred bet size. This is a fixed payline slots game, so this makes things super easy - just change your bet size and you're good to go. You will always be betting on all 25 lines, giving you 25 possibilities of winning with every spin of the reels. There's also a Bet Max button, but be sure you're happy with the total amount before you even think about going for this option if you're playing for real money!

There is an autoplay feature if you prefer to sit back and watch the reels spin without any input from you. You can activate this by clicking on the Auto Game button and then following the on-screen prompts to select your preferred settings and limits.

Eastern Dreams Bonus Features & Free Spins

The bonus features in this slots game are both triggered by the scatter symbol. The first scatter symbol is a beautiful woman in traditional Chinese dress. When she appears on the reels, she awards an instant cash payout. All very nice and welcome, but what about the free spins? To trigger the free spins feature, you will need to land the other game scatter - the lucky gold coins. These only appear on the three central reels - i.e. 2, 3 and 4. Three of these landing during the same spin will give you 10 free spins, although you can add more free spins later on. You'll be invited to choose the free spins mode you prefer, and each one comes with a multiplier. If you land more coin scatter symbols during the free spins, you can add additional free spins to your initial 10 spins. If you want to land big wins, the free spins feature with its multiplier of up to 5x is where you're most likely to do it.

RTP & Volatility of Eastern Dreams

As previously mentioned, the return to player (RTP) of this game is an incredible 98.2%. Most slots pay out somewhere in the mid-90s, with anything over 97% being considered generous. This is one of the highest RTPs we've seen, so it's definitely worth a mention. If you're new to online slots and not familiar with the idea of RTP, it basically gives you a rough idea of how much you can expect to win back from a game over a long period of playing. In theory, if you were to place 100 bets of one coin on this slots game, you would finish with 98.2 coins at the end. Obviously, this is highly unlikely to happen in reality, and most players would end up with considerably less or more than this. Of course, it's also possible to end up with nothing!

The game's volatility is medium, which means you can expect some small wins, fewer larger ones and probably a fair number of dead spins with nothing, but not so many that you start wondering whether the game is broken!

Our Verdict

8/10. The game is so attractively designed that it's definitely worth a few spins. The bonus feature is great but, like all good bonus features, it's pretty rare to trigger it. This just makes it all the more special when you do, though.
