Ox Bonanza Slot

 

2021 is the year of the Ox, according to Chinese astrology, so RTG are celebrating with the release of Ox Bonanza; a high variance slot with 25 paylines. Some of the features in the game are scatters, wilds, jackpot prizes and free spins.

You can play from 25p to £12.50 per spin and the maximum payout is 2000x your bet. The game has a 5×3 layout and is available to play on all devices.

 

Ox Bonanza Design

 

If you’ve played plenty of Asian themed slots before, then you’ll know what to expect. There is lots of traditional Chinese imagery and colours, and the reels are under the roof of a traditional Chinese building. There are cherry blossom trees to the side and the traditional soundtrack fits the theme well.

On the reels are 10 to A symbols, with a pig, dog, mouse and the ox making up the higher values. The gold bull is the wild, which can replace other symbols, and the bonus symbol is the ‘ox bonus’.

 

Gameplay and Design

 

The ox bonus symbol is worth 200x your stake for 5 on a payline and 3 symbols also activates the free spins round. Here you’ll receive an impressive 100 free spins and you can also trigger the feature when you land more scatters during the round.

The bull wild symbol not only replaces other symbols to help form wins, but also gives you a 2x multiplier when you do win.

Above the reels are Minor and Major jackpot bars. These are progressive jackpots which increase as you play. They’re triggered at random and you can trigger both at the same time if you’re lucky enough!

 

Verdict

 

The design, while the graphics are excellent, isn’t anything we’ve not seen plenty of times before. However, the 100 free spins is a real bonus we don’t often see and there’s a decent 2000x top prize, plus the progressive jackpots to be won which might really appeal to some players.
