Moon Goddess - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction 

Moon Goddess is an online slot with an Asian fantasy theme brought to you by KA Gaming. Played on 5 reels with 3 rows, the game offers players 20 fixed paylines on which they might win. A potentially lucrative free spins round also adds to the excitement of the game for players who are lucky enough to enter it.

On the reels, there are 11 regular symbols. Six of these are the classic playing card symbols A, K, Q, J, and 10. The rest of the regular symbols are made up of a Moon Goddess (young lady), a palace, an archer, a white rabbit, white flowers, and a lantern.

Additionally, the reels also have a wild and a scatter symbol. The scatter is the box with a golden ball inside. It’s these symbols that are able to trigger the free spins bonus round. Then there’s the wild symbol, depicted by a full moon, that can replace any symbol in the game except the scatter to help form winning combinations.

The demo game above is great to play just for fun. It’s also useful for players who might possibly consider playing with real money at some point as it gives them the opportunity to experience the game’s variance firsthand.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack 

Moon Goddess’s theme is an oriental fantasy story featuring the Moon Goddess herself. We also see other traditional oriental symbolism, such as the lantern. All this contributes to the atmosphere the game tries to create. The graphics are quite pretty, and a nice touch of animation adds some very subtle movement to the symbols when they make a winning combination.

As with many other KA Gaming slots, the soundtrack doesn’t play until you actually spin the reels, but when it does play, we hear an enchanting oriental melody that’s quite a catchy tune.

Moon Goddess RTP and Variance 

There’s no officially published figure for this slot’s theoretical return to player value, and other online estimates seem to vary. However, we’d say that Moon Goddess is probably in line with other slots by KA Gaming and sits somewhere near the 96% RTP mark. In terms of variance, we think that Moon Goddess is a medium variance slot that provides a middle ground between other high- or low-variance slots.

How to Play Moon Goddess

Join in the fun in a few short steps.

1. First, set your bet level by pressing the button marked ‘New Bet’ (on the left of the start button).
2. With your bet set, the values in the paytable will be tailored to your bet level. See the paytable now by pressing the ‘i’ symbol in the bottom left of the screen.
3. While you’re there, scroll all the way to the right to view the 20 paylines.
4. If you prefer to play quietly, you can switch audio off by pressing the hamburger menu icon (in the top right), followed by the speaker symbol.
5. For players who like to use auto-spin, you can reveal the auto-spin configuration options by pressing and holding the start button.
6. If you want to spin manually, press the start button when ready. Manual spins help you to see what has been won and how.
7. Remember to always gamble responsibly. Here at Slots Temple, we make good use of timeouts and self-exclusion tools to help, but you should always walk away if it stops being fun.

Bet Sizes & Paytable Wins

The minimum bet you can place on Moon Goddess is 0.20, whilst the maximum you can bet is 300.00. This provides a rather wide range of betting options that will appeal to many different players.

As you know, the paytable displays prize values according to your currently configured bet level. If the maximum bet were to be played, some of the top paytable wins you could potentially get include:

• 3,750 for 5 Moon Goddess symbols
• 3,000 for 5 palace symbols
• 2,250 for 5 archer symbols

The game pays one way, left to right, and only pays the highest win on any one payline. If wins appear on multiple paylines, these will be added together and paid out at the end of the turn.

Moon Goddess Bonus Features

The only real bonus feature present in Moon Goddess is the free spins bonus round. To gain free spins, players must land 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. They are then awarded with 15 free games.

During the free spins, it’s not possible to gain further free spins by landing more scatter symbols. Instead, landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters in the free spins round will pay out 3x, 4x, or 5x more than scatter wins won during the base game. Scatters do actually pay out as symbols in their own right when appearing on paylines. In the base game, you must land 3, 4, or 5 of them to win up to 3,000, but in free spins games, you must land 2, 3, 4 or 5 of them and can win up to 15,000. 

Overall Moon Goddess Review

Moon Goddess is a fairly basic online slot that is nonetheless enjoyable to play. We liked that the free spins games seemed to trigger a little earlier than we’ve experienced with some other slots. That was a good thing because the game is pretty light on bonus features. It would be nice if there were more of them.

We think the game would prove to be popular with beginners as its basic features make it simple to understand. In addition, its medium variance isn’t too high.

Players might also like to try KA Gaming's Diamond Power slot, which is also pretty basic but has 4096 paylines.
