Pragmatic Play – 5 Lions Gold – Free Game

The Free Spins feature is the main event and includes seven different games. In addition, the randomly triggered Golden Reels jackpot feature awards one of three fixed jackpots, while the Cashien Random Award is a pick-and-match bonus that can be used to award free spins or a jackpot. The game has RTP ranges, with the highest possible RTP being 96.5% and the lowest being 95.94%. 5 Lions Gold offers high volatility and a maximum possible win of 7342x your bet. Bets start at €0.18 and go up to €90.00. Note that the betting range may vary from online casino to online casino.

The lion is wild and applies a random multiplier to the wins it is involved in during free spins. The Yin Yang symbol is the scatter. The game has 11 regular symbols, of which the dragon is the top symbol and awards 7 times your bet for 5 matches. In descending order of value, the phoenix, frog, fish and turtle make up the remaining highs. The ace, king, queen, jack, 10 and 9 are the lows.

5 Lions Gold Features

5 Lions Gold has three features. These are the Golden Reels Jackpot, the Cashien Random Award and a 7-in-1 Free Game.

Golden Reels Jackpot

This feature awards one of three fixed jackpots and can occur during the base game or free spins. If 3 reels go gold, the Minor Jackpot is won and 15 times the total bet is awarded. If 4 reels go gold, the Major Jackpot (150x bet) is awarded. But what you really want to see is all 5 reels going gold, because this awards you the Grand Jackpot of 2,000x your bet.

Cashien Random Award

This feature can be triggered randomly during the base game and free spins. It can award free spins or the jackpot bonus pick-and-match game, where players have to play 3 of the same symbols to win the corresponding jackpot.

Free spins

Free spins are triggered when 3 scatters land on reels 2, 3 and 4. The feature includes seven bonus games, each offering a different multiplier range and number of spins:

25 free spins with 2x, 3x or 5x multiplier.
20 free spins with 3x, 5x or 8x multiplier
15 free spins with 5x, 8x or 10x multiplier
Mystery Choice – a mysterious number of spins and multiplier ranges, each randomly selected from the other free spins games
13 free spins with 8x, 10x or 15x multiplier
10 free spins with 10x, 15x or 30x multiplier
6 free spins with 15x, 30x or 40x multiplier

If 3 more scatters land during the free spins, players can choose another free spin after the current round is completed. The number of retriggers is unlimited.

The 200 Spins 5 Lions Experience

We put 5 Lions Gold through our usual 200 spin test to get a feel for the game.

Our opening series of spins is largely uneventful. We score a couple of insignificant wins before making a decent profit of 24.6x our bet. A few spins later, we improve on that and win 28x our bet. This is the highlight of our test. The fact that our two notable wins both involved wilds makes us a little sad that this game doesn’t include wild multipliers in the base game.

Our 200 spins have expired. Of course, we’re disappointed that we didn’t trigger any free spins or see the Golden Reels Jackpot and Cashien Random Award features in action. We remember that getting the most out of a slot, and especially one with high volatility, usually requires more than 200 spins. However, the beauty of slots is their randomness, and although we didn’t have the best luck, you can come along nicely and win 7342x your bet on your first spin!

Summary

5 Lions Gold offers an entertaining gaming experience. The high-fidelity graphics and soundtrack have a lot to do with it, as does the 7-in-1 free spins feature. In addition, the potential to win one of the three fixed jackpots – especially the Grand – will be enough to make this game very attractive to many players. In conducting our research for this review, we did win a minor jackpot via the Golden Reels jackpot feature. However, we never experienced the Cashien Random Award, despite playing well over 1,000 spins.
