ways of the qilin theme,stakes, pays & symbols

There are so many online slots that use graphics and imagery based on Far Eastern culture that it seems logical to assume that players must really love this type of game! Not a month goes by when we don’t see at least one or two such releases here at Demoslot. We have reviewed Eastern Emeralds, Dragon Boat 2, and Cai Shen 168 just in the past few weeks, but our library contains more than enough of these games to warrant us creating a whole new category for them; we should probably get around to that soon!

The numbers stated on the paytable here are given in coins, and you need to multiply the values by the number of winning payways to get the return of each combination as a multiple of your stake. I mention this as I was initially unsure if I had made a mistake when writing this part, but I was eventually able to confirm that these numbers are indeed correct, despite seeming very low. Our top paying symbol then is the golden frog which has a payout of 4x your bet for each complete payway of six of a kind, followed by the old-fashioned ship with a return of 2.5x. There is a pot adorned with gold coins with a payout of 2x for all six symbols, but I couldn’t quite make out what the next symbol is meant to be. It appears to be some kind of green vegetable (maybe?) and has a return of 1.5x, whilst the bag of gold coins and the gold coin necklace share a payout of 0.75x for six of a kind. The low-paying royal symbols are divided into the Ace/King, which pays 0.5x, and then the Queen/Jack/Ten which all share an unimpressive return of 0.2x the current stake. Whilst these numbers do feel very low, it’s worth remembering that you can win on tens of thousands of individual payways on each spin.

The wager selection system used in PGSoft’s games appears a little overcomplicated initially, but the various selectors allow excellent granular control over your current bet. The minimum/maximum bets allowed are €0.20 and €20.00, respectively, and you can choose to bet any multiple of €0.20 that falls within that range.

ways of the qilin base game

Ways of the Qilin uses a very large playfield with six reels of six rows each. This is a size that we commonly see used by grid slots but much less frequently by standard machines such as this one. Some Megaways games use a similarly sized setup, of course, and I suspect that this is where PG Soft got their inspiration for the jumbo-sized reel set used here.

ways of the qilin slot bonus features

The larger-than-average reel set used in Ways of the Qilin comes with a small caveat; you now require four scatter symbols to trigger a bonus round instead of the more usual three! If the bonus triggering combination features more than four scatter symbols, then the extra symbols are used to provide a boost to the potential of the feature, as described below.
