Panda’s Fortune slot review (Pragmatic Play)

Pragmatic Play’s last release of 2017 goes by the name of Panda’s Fortune, and it involves, you guessed it, Panda Bears and Jackpots

They have been churning out lots of great slots in 2017, which is excellent news for all you slot-loving casino players out there.

What do Panda Bears have to do with winning big jackpots, we hear you ask? Don’t they hang about and clumsily fall from trees all day? Well, some Panda Bears are also into helping you reach a state of eternal bliss.

That is precisely the case with Panda’s Fortune, where the Panda Bear acts as a stacked wild. There are also 3 jackpots to be won that correspond in size to your total stake.

The top jackpot is worth a staggering 800 times your total stake – well worth the effort.

Panda’s Fortune game features

Panda’s Fortune is a 5 reel, 25 pay line slot with a beautiful, relaxing Chinese Garden theme. The music is soothing and will bring you straight to Nirvana if you let it. Don’t let its peaceful settings fool you, though; this is a high variance slot at heart. The Return to Player of this slot is an impressive 96.17%.

The Panda Bear is stacked and acts as a wild symbol, replacing all other symbols except the Yin and Yang scatter symbol. Wilds only appear on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Other premium symbols include the Butterfly, Lion, Frog and Bonzai Tree and pay out between 200 and 100 coins on every five-of-a-kind. The card symbols 9, 10, J, Q, K and A all pay out 50 coins when you line up five of the same symbols.

Free spins bonus

The free spins bonus is activated when 3 or more scatter symbols appear on the screen.

Depending on the number of scatters that activate the bonus, you win free spins and a credit prize:

• 3 scatters: 8 free spins and 2 x your total bet
• 4 scatters: 10 free spins and 15 x your total bet
• 3 scatters: 15 free spins and 100 x your total bet

During the free spins, there are stacked special symbols on the reels. After each spin, all the special symbols transform into the same symbol, giving you a real chance to land some huge wins.

Unlimited retriggers are possible during the free spins. Every time 3 or more scatters appear, you are awarded 5 extra free spins.

Jackpot bonus

Whenever you get a five of a kind with a gold symbol on the 5th reel, you have won one of the 3 big jackpots.

• Five Premium symbols without a wild symbol: Grand Jackpot
• Five Card symbols without a wild symbol: Major Jackpot
• Any Five of a kind including a wild symbol: Minor Jackpot

The Grand Jackpot pays out a whopping 800 x your total stake.

Our verdict on Panda’s Fortune

We love Pragmatic Play slots – they are fast, fun and pay out well.

Panda’s Fortune is a high variance slot that should appeal to both serious gamblers and recreational gamblers.

And if the top jackpot of 800 x your stake is not enough to whet your appetite, the action-packed free spins bonus with stacked mystery symbols should do the trick.
