NextGen Gaming is the developer of the Emperor’s Garden Scratch. This is an oriental themed online slot. It takes you back in time to an era when the Japanese emperor was a very powerful political figure in the East.
Emperor’s Garden Scratch has twenty-five paylines and five reels.The background is a Koi pond surrounded by ancient Japanese styled drawings and trees located underneath the reels.
This online slot has high and low-value symbols. The high symbols include a dragon statue, a pink lily, a pagoda and the Emperor. The low value symbols consist of your standard A, J, K, Q, 9 and 10 card values.
The Koi Carp symbol represents the Scatter and the Garden icon represents the Wild symbol. The wild symbol will appear on just reels two, three and four. However, as the wild appears on these reels, it will expand to cover all the reels to give you a chance of winning more cash prizes.
The Emperor’s Garden Scratch comes with a Free Spins bonus feature. This can be triggered when you land a minimum of three Koi carp scatter symbols on any position on the reels.
Your winning combos will then be multiplied by a 3x multiplier. You can reactivate the Free Spins when you are able to land more Koi icons. Another bonus feature available is the Gamble feature. This round can be activated by clicking the ‘Gamble’ button located right underneath the reels. Once you have landed a winning combo, you can activate this feature.
To win this card guessing bonus game, all you need to do is guess the correct colour of card (i.e. either red or black) to double your winnings. By choosing the right suit of cards you will quadruple your wins.
In this feature, you can have as much as five chances to guess and win. However, any wrong guess could leave you losing out completely. The best advice would be for you to completely avoid this bonus feature. To avoid gambling away all your winnings and walking away with nothing at the end of the day.
The triggering of the Free Spins can be a challenge and this online slots could do with a bit more innovation and creativity. However, the cool graphics, animation and the pleasant soundtrack makes Emperor’s Garden Scratch worth a trial.
