Wizard Games Unveils New Unchain The Dragons Slot Release
On June 28, Wizard Games, a subsidiary of NeoGames S.A. based in Gibraltar, has released Unchain The Dragons, a dragon-themed online slot featuring captive dragons, enslaved to guard hidden treasures.
In addition, the provider’s previous similar hits are Dragons of the North Megaways, which incorporates Big Time Gaming‘s (BTG) popular Megaways game engine, and Dragons of the North Deluxe.
Mystical visual:
True to its title, the main theme of the slot is the aforementioned dragons. The game takes place in a distant land filled with volcanic mountains. Also, in the center of the interface, the reels are made of valerian steel. Thriller-like music completes the atmosphere of the game.
To win, players must find a way to free the enslaved dragons in order to gain the greatest wealth. In addition, the game is played on a 5×6 grid that offers 40 paylines and it can be played on any device.
The basic low-value symbols are poker royals such as 9,10, J, Q, K, and A, the medium-value symbols are green and blue dragons, and the high-value bonus symbol is the red dragon. As for the low-value symbols, a combination of 4 or 5 of the 9, 10 and J symbols is worth 0,25x and 1x, while a combination of 3 Q, K and A symbols is worth 0,1x, 0,5x and 2x a player’s bet. Next, the medium-value symbols are worth 0,1x, 0,75x and 4x a player’s bet, while a combination of 2+ high-value bonus symbols is worth 0,05x to 10x a player’s bet.
However, there are also some special symbols like the Golden Dragon Eye Wild which has a similar value to the red dragon symbol and substitutes for any symbol except the Scatter, aka the egg, which activates the Free Spins.
The game has medium volatility, RTP of 88.08%, 94.07% and 96.24% respectively and a maximum win of 1,247x a player’s bet.
Slot features:
Moving Wild – this symbol randomly lands anywhere on the columns. As soon as it lands, it moves up one position per spin until it disappears from the grid completely. However, Moving Wilds are saved per stake, meaning that if players change their stake, it will change their positions. But, if they get back to their previous stake, it will restore the Moving Wilds positions associated with it.
Valahd Feature (Random Wild Drop) – this feature is activated throughout the base game or Free Spins. The dragon can randomly land and drop +1 Wilds anywhere on the grid, meaning players get extra Moving Wilds at random positions.
Dracarys Feature (Expandable Adjacent Positions) – to trigger this one, the red dragon symbol needs to appear on the Shifting Wild and each of the adjacent positions will convert into Wilds.
Free Spins – landing 3 or more Scatters at the same time triggers this feature. As soon as it’s activated, players receive 15 free spins. Furthermore, during this feature, players have more chances to land additional payouts. However, the positions of the Moving Wilds are reset as long as the feature lasts and will be restored after it ends.
The good thing about Free Spins is that players may reset the feature and each time it is activated they receive an additional 15 free spins.
launch, Benedict McDonagh, Managing Director at Wizard Games, said: “Our new release, Unchain the Dragons, follows the acclaimed Dragons of the North with an expansive grid, exciting new features and plenty of potential to take home the treasure. “We’re confident that players will love the fast-paced thrills of the Dracarys and Valahd features, alongside the blazing Free Spins round with more chances to land winning payouts. We can’t wait for people to take a spin!”
