The Legend of Shangri-La Cluster Pays

By Becky M. | Updated 13 November 2024

There isn’t a lot that NetEnt don’t do well these days, and one of their newer habits is to produce series of games. From the Fairytale Legends series, to last year’s NetEnt Rocks trilogy, NetEnt love a theme, and The Legend of Shangri-La is the newest in their Cluster Pays series, following on from the immensely popular 2016 release Aloha!

The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays is a pure NetEnt slot, combining excellent graphics with amazing gameplay.

About the slot

The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays, like Aloha before it, is a six reel, five row slot that doesn’t work with left to right paylines, instead the aim is to group symbols into clusters of at least nine matching symbols.

Based on the mythical city of Shangri-La first mentioned by James Hilton, this slot brings the kingdom to life with stunning graphics and animations, and symbols including a cat, an elephant, and a monkey which are all two positions tall, as well as flowers, butterflies, and more.

Gameplay

Land three, four, five, or six scatter symbols anywhere on the reels and you will trigger the free spins feature, and receive five, six, seven, or eight free spins respectively.

Wilds will be added to the reels between every spin that you have during this feature, making it increasingly likely for winning combinations to land. If this feature ends and you have made less than 10x your bet amount, you’ll get another spin.

With random wilds, sticky cluster re-spins, and a classic nudge reel in play during the base game as well, The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays is unlikely to get boring too soon for you!

An excellent game from simply one of the best software developers around, if you liked Aloha, you’ll love the Legend of Shangri-La!
