Wukong Peaches Slot Machine - Play Wukong Peaches Slot Free

Game Theme

Sun Wukong, known as the Handsome Monkey King, is a famous character within Chinese literature, featured within the epic 16th Century ‘Journey to the West’ novel by Wu Chen’en. Chinese mythology has it that Sun Wukong was given the title of Protector of the Peaches, with his task being to look after and protect the Peaches of Immortality. The peaches are said to have mystic virtue, capable of granting longevity, and so are eaten by the immortals.

Sun Wukong ran into much trouble during his time as peach protector and the Journey To The West fantasy novel covers some of his adventures. Unsurprisingly perhaps, peaches have thus become a popular symbol in Chinese art and culture to symbolise immortality.

Graphics & Soundtrack

Aesthetically, this is a clear-cut, bright and beautiful slot. The breathtaking background is brilliantly rendered and the symbols are given detail and vibrancy to make them pop against the reels.

The slot is set against a luscious landscape of mountains and waterfalls, and clouds that lazily grace the sky. Graphics are complemented by a themed soundtrack to help immerse players in the theme, giving the slot an ethereal, mystical vibe.

How To Play

There are 5 main themed symbols, including fans and fire bowls, that are luxuriously detailed with gold. In addition are lower value Chinese-styled playing cards from 9 to A. Players need only land 3 identical symbols from the left on adjacent reels to scoop a prize.

The green peach is the wild, capable of substituting all bar the Wukong symbol and can appear on reels 2, 3 and 4. The red-haired monkey Wukong is the scatter.

This slot does away with a defined user interface and instead lists the credits, win, total bet, sound and menu underneath the reels, overlaid against the background for a seamless appeal. The spin button is in the middle of the screen to the right of the reels, where users can also adjust the bet with the +/- buttons.

To play, simply adjust your wager and hit spin. There are 243 ways to win and no conventional betways, so nothing else needs adjusting. There’s also autospin and turbo mode if you want to speed things up a notch.

Bet Sizes & Maximum Win

The minimum wager is 0.60 coins per spin, which is reasonable for the more casual players. The maximum bet is 375 and this is well suited to the higher rollers, especially as the multipliers could see some very tempting returns from a max wager.

The playing cards pay for 3 or more, with prizes from 15 up to 200 for for the A. The fan is worth 20, 100 and 300 coins for 3, 4 and 5 during a spin respectively. The fireball is more valuable, worth up to 3,000 coins when these grace 5 reels. In addition, the scatter pays 5x, 10x and 50x your total bet when it lands on 3, 4 or 5 reels.

Bonus Features

This slot keeps things sweet and simple with one bonus element, but it packs a punch thanks to some generous multipliers.

Free spins - The scatter won’t just give you a multiplier on your bet, it’ll also trigger 10 free spins. During the round there are additional multipliers to be had to give your winnings a boost. The first free spin will pay at the usual rate, the second win will be doubled and the third will be tripled. This continues increasing, and so on the tenth free spin the prize will get a 10x multiplier. What’s more, free spins can be retriggered during the round with more scatters so it’s possible to get 50 free spins. This means that as the multipliers keep growing, you could be getting a 50x multiplier on your prize by the final spin.

RTP & Volatility

Although the RTP and variance aren’t known, from demo gameplay we would anticipate a reasonable RTP, probably around 96% with low to medium volatility. Players could probably expect fairly consistent smaller to medium wins, with the larger payouts, such as from retriggering free spins for the 50x multiplier, being harder to come by.

Our Verdict

The theme is brought out nicely by top quality, beautifully rendered graphics. Lack of a defined user interface, with buttons seemingly floating atop the background, makes it feel contemporary and seamless.

While the RTP and volatility aren’t stated, we’d anticipate the former being average, or on the good side of average, and the variance to be low to medium based on gameplay. It’s likely players will find more regular small and medium wins, but striking lucky with 50 free spins for the 50x multiplier is going to be harder to do.

The game is kept pretty simple with only one bonus round, the free spins. This feature is given a boost with the ability to retrigger spins and score increasing multipliers on each spin, upping the excitement. On the whole, it’s a straightforward game to pick up and play while being engaging and pleasing to look at.
