Best Oriental-Themed Mobile Slots Launched in 2018
It seems software developers will never run out of inspiration when it comes to Oriental-themed slots. Slots inspired by the Far East are everywhere and each year brings a plethora of new ones. Although they may all look alike, it seems slot enthusiasts love them too. That’s why we have decided to compile a list of the best Oriental-themed mobile slots launched in 2018.
My Fair Pearl
The first title in this list comes from Playtech. Taking you to the Far East, the 5-reel slot offering 243 ways to win features a female along with dragons, golden rings, jade butterflies, hearts and bowls with some magic golden powder. The reels are set within a temple on a beach with turquoise water seen in the backdrop. The Asian beauty is the game’s Wild appearing on the reels 1, 3 and 5 only to complete your winning combinations and double your winnings.
Look out for Temple Scatter as 3, 4 or 5 of these will award 15, 20 or 25 free games respectively. All payouts obtained within the feature will be trebled. If you complete a winning combo with Wild during free games, the payout from it will be multiplied by 6x! The feature can be retriggered meaning that you can play up to 50 free spins per activation.
What makes this game so special?
We love slot games that use winning ways instead of paylines as all you have to do to hit a win is to land three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost position. Wild that doubles your payouts in the base game and a chance to get your payout multiplied by up to 6x during free spins make My Fair Pearl a must play mobile slot.
