Game Overview
Today, Eurasian Gaming is back with another Chinese-inspired slot, which focuses on Taishen, or Caishen, the Chinese God of prosperity and wealth. You probably know the guy quite well if you’ve played the zillions of other Caishen slots around – he’s the smiling guy in red who carries around bowls of gold coins he likes to give to those who honour him. The question is whether he will bestow that honour on you in Gates of Wealth, a 6×5 scatter pays slot with a 5,000x maximum win and a 95% RTP.
Scatter-pay slots have been trending for quite some time, so it’s no wonder that Eurasian Gaming has jumped on the bandwagon with its take on the genre. Combinations are paid anywhere in view, a tumble feature removes symbols so more can drop in to potentially create additional wins, and multiplier symbols can land to boost payouts by up to 500x the stake. Players can gamble winnings received via a risk game, while there is a free spins bonus that offers all the above but with a global win multiplier that is persistent throughout.
Has the sound of all those bonuses and features left you feeling lucky? Well, rather than take a risk from the off, why not fire up our Gates of Wealth demo slot to see if the god of money is shining down on you today? It’s free to play below.
Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
It’s never a coincidence that slot studios create luck-themed slots. They know we’re a superstitious bunch who are likelier to play this type of slot, hoping that the luck rubs off and we walk away with some hefty winnings. If only life were as simple as playing a luck slot and winning; however, as more often than not, the reverse happens. We keep trying, though, and if you’re after some similarly themed slots to hopefully turn luck in your favour, I recommend Leprechauns Magic Megaways from Red Tiger Gaming and Microgaming’s Shamrock Holmes.
Turning to the paytable on Gates of Wealth, the Scatter symbols have the best returns. Aside from playing a part in triggering the free spins bonus, they’ll also reward 100x the stake for a 6-symbol combo. The Coins are worth up to 50x, the Green Charm pays up to 25x, and the Firecrackers can return up to 15x. The last of the premiums is the Lettuce, which has a top payout of 12x. As for the lower-value symbols, these are the Red, Pink, Gold, Green, and Blue Gems that return up to 10x, 8x, 5x, 4x, and 2x, respectively.
There are plenty of stake sizes available to play Gates of Wealth. These start from as little as €0.20 a spin and reach a maximum of €40.00 a play.
Base Game & Modifiers
The action takes place across a 6×5 grid that holds 30 symbols at a time. Rather than pay lines, the slot uses a scatter pay mechanic to determine and calculate payouts. Wins are rewarded when 8 or more matching symbols land anywhere in view.
Tumble Mechanic
When winning combinations are created, all symbols are removed from the reels, and more tumble in from above. If further wins are created as a result of that tumble, another round of symbols drops into the action. The whole process only ends once no new wins are created.
Multiplier Symbols
Multiplier symbols holding multiplier values between 2x and 500x can appear on all reels during the base game and the free spins bonus. The combined values of all multipliers are applied to all wins on the current spin.
Gamble
Another feature you can choose to use is a risk game. You first have to activate it in the slot’s settings, and once done, you’re given the option to gamble your winnings after every win.
You simply guess the colour of the next card to be drawn from the pack. If you get it right, you double your winnings and can choose to play again or collect what you’ve won. Guess wrong at any time though, and you walk away with nothing.
Ante Bet
To increase your chances of triggering the free spins bonus, you can activate the Ante Bet feature, which costs an extra 25% on top of your current spin bet.
Gates of Wealth Slot Bonus Features
While the tumbles and multipliers ensure the base game offers plenty of potential, your ultimate aim is to trigger the Gates of Wealth free spins bonus. That happens once four or more scatter symbols land anywhere in view.
Free Spins Feature
Once triggered, you receive 15 free spins. Whenever a multiplier symbol lands on the reels and a winning combination is created, the multiplier value of that symbol is added to a global win multiplier. Going forward, the global multiplier will apply to all wins.
Bonus Buy
You can use the buy bonus feature to jump straight into the free spins bonus. It costs 100x your current take and guarantees the scatter symbols required to trigger the bonus.
Pros
- The persistent global multiplier in the free spins round offers increasing potential as the bonus progresses.
- Similar mechanics to other popular slots.
Cons
- The maximum win is far lower than you can find on other scatter pays slots.
- Below average RTP.
Gates of Wealth Slot Review Final Thoughts
If you’re a scatter pays and tumbling reels fan, Gates of Wealth certainly brings enough action to keep you entertained. The multiplier symbols, with their potential to skyrocket your payouts by up to 500x, add a touch of unpredictability that keeps each spin interesting. The free spins bonus also allows you to build significant wins thanks to the accumulating global multiplier. Overall, I have to say this is one of my favourite Eurasian Gaming slots to date.
