Play Lantern Festival For Real Money With Bonus
Lantern Festival Slot
When talking about new Vegas slots, it’s nearly impossible not to mention industry leader WMS at some point. Personally, I can’t imagine a complete visit to Vegas without spending a few hours playing their latest releases.
Despite the focus on online gaming, WMS has not forgotten about land-based casino players. They continue to innovate every year, ensuring that the gaming experience for live casino players remains cutting-edge, sometimes even surpassing their online counterparts.
Since many of these games are exclusive to physical casinos and not available online, playing in Vegas provides a unique and special feeling, as if these games were tailor-made for the gambling capital of the world.
Lantern Festival is one of three games launched on WMS’s latest Blade platform, featuring the new ‘Extreme Symbols’ expanded wilds and an additional bonus round that increases the standard 40-line, 5-reel game to 80 paylines during the bonus free spins.
Theme
Unsurprisingly, the game’s Asian theme is evident from the moment you approach the machine. While the console itself is modern and designed with player comfort in mind, the fixed graphics embody the traditional deep reds and golds commonly associated with Asian culture.
The graphics are exceptionally smooth, the 3D visuals are simple yet stunning, and the music offers a traditional and authentic instrumental experience. Like other WMS games, Lantern Festival is not just entertaining to play but also visually captivating.
The game’s symbols are heavily influenced by the Chinese lantern festival, a tradition that has symbolized the end of the lunar New Year for over two thousand years in Chinese culture, signifying the shedding of old selves and embracing new ones. Dragons, wooden flutes, lanterns, and more thematic elements can be found on the screen.
Features
Aside from the standard 5-reel, 40-payline setup, the standout feature here is the Extreme symbols – stacked wilds larger than the display itself that replace all symbols except the golden envelopes which trigger the bonus free spins.
Trigger the bonus round by landing 3 or more scattered bonus symbols.
- 5 scattered bonus symbols award 20x the total bet and 50 free spins.
- 4 scattered bonus symbols award 10x the total bet and 20 free spins.
- 3 scattered bonus symbols award 2x the total bet and 10 free spins.
Lantern Festival also includes the WMS bonus guarantee, ensuring that when playing maximum lines, the Free Spin Bonus will award at least 10x the total bet. Any bonus round ending with less than that is automatically boosted to 10x total bet. Not exciting enough? Here’s the WMS ‘Wager Saver’: if your credit drops below the minimum bet, you can wager your remaining balance for one more spin and bet – a final opportunity to win without reloading.
Summary
With its diverse features, bonuses, and timeless theme, Lantern Festival is bound to be a hit on the casino floor for many seasons to come, further enhancing WMS’s strong lineup in this realm.
