Pros and Cons

Like most casino games free slots by Spadegaming, Dragon Gold features images rich in colour and full of depth. The game is set up on a 5x3 grid. Your purpose is to land at least two of-a-kind symbols. Playing cards (9, 10, J, Q, K, and A) pay out small. 9 and 10 give you from x5 to x100. J and Q – from x8 to x250. K and A – from x10 to x350. 

Thematic symbols reward higher, with the Jade Pear paying up to x10,000 the stake for five of a kind. Other symbols, Koi carp and Chinese Lantern reward x800 and x1,000, respectively. The Wild symbol, a Golden Dragon, helps build a winning combination as it substitutes all symbols (surely, Scatters don't count).

The Dragon Gold demo slot and its real money version run great on mobile devices. It adapts to a mobile screen horizontally for better navigation and playing convenience, with minor differences in UI compared to the desktop version.

The game has a medium pace. Things get warmer only when you hit special features. They include:

• Wild. As usual, the wild substitutes all other symbols except for scatters.

• Scatter. The scatter symbol, depicted via red Chinese hieroglyphs, rewards players with free spins.

• Free spins. When you land three or more scatters, the screen gets filled with five treasure chests, each with a certain number of free spins. Choose any, and the free spins behind it will get credited to your account.

• Jackpot. On the Dragon Gold paytable, the most expected symbol is the Jackpot. Landing only on the first three reels, three Jackpots will reward the player generously per the bet level.

• Gamble game. After every win, the Gamble feature is activated. You can gamble your win and try to enhance your prize. It would help if you guessed whether the dice have fewer dots (up to three) or vice versa (four to six). You can guess the precise number on the dice to maximise the profit. If you're lucky, your bet will be multiplied six times.

One winning combination can be gambled up to four times!

Dragon Gold RTP is 96.08%, while the volatility is medium. This ensures relatively frequent wins. The available bet value ranges from 0.02 to 6.00 coins per spin, which suits great for any gambler, whether they love to play at small stakes or risk more to hit the highest win potential. By the way, the maximum win of the slot is stated as 120,000 times the bet. However, it can hardly be reached with a single bet. You must be lucky to activate the bonus rounds and hit the Jackpot for a big win!

Whether for real money or free, the Dragon Gold slot has fifteen paylines, i.e., you must land a combination on any of them to register a win. Once you set the size of your bet, you can start gambling. Click the "Spin" button, and the fun will begin. The game has straightforward navigation, and all the necessary tools are easily accessible.

I have tested it in the accessible demo mode to include more authentic information on how the game performs in this review. I started with 100 spins and 2,000 coins on my balance. To spice up the game, I set the bet value to 30 credits, which turned out to be a bet size that was too big, as my 2,000 free credits wore out on the 76th spin. Then, I added another 1,000 credits to reach the goal of 100 spins.

When you play Dragon Gold in demo mode, please don't focus on the wins' size, but watch their frequency. Overall, I registered plenty of minor wins, few of which recouped the bet—no free spins ever triggered. I ended with 57 credits left on my balance!

Twice after landing a winning combo, I activated the Gamble feature - one was a win, and the other was a loss. My personal experience concluded in a Hit Rate of 61% - a pretty decent result.
