Rules

Chinese spider uses a rather unique 2-3-2 format, which when you count manually, has a total of 12 possible winning moves/ways. Fortunately, the slot’s payout algorithm utilizes all of the ways, meaning that the chances of landing a winner on an inactive payline are reduced to zero.

When it comes to the controls, they are as simple as it gets, with the auto-spins button only requiring you to click it once to start the auto rounds. What’s more, the slot utilizes a simple coin-based wager selector, which only requires the players to use the + and – button to select a coin bet ranging from 10 to 1000.

The symbols on the paytable are a random collection of gems as well as Chinese-inspired symbols such as ostriches, dragons, fish, and the Asian-native Azalea flowers. As you play, watch out for dragons, the Chinese symbols of good luck for worthy beings, as they are the highest paying symbols triggering a 120X payout when occupying all 7 positions on the grid.

Multiplying Wild Symbol

As you would speculate, the Chinese Spider is the key to unlocking this game’s premier reward. The question is: how do you line it up for that to happen?

Well, the Chinese Spider symbol has substituting powers, and that’s not all… Every first wild you land bears an X2 multiplier, and for every other additional wild present on the grid, this multiplier is multiplied by 2 up to a maximum of X32. To break it down even more, one wild on the grid will multiply your wins (if any) with an X2 multiplier, two wilds with X4, three wilds with X8, four wilds with X16, and finally, five with X32. And because there are only 7 spots on the grid, land 5 wilds and only 2 dragons (the highest paying symbols) to unlock Chinese Spider Slot’s premier reward of 3840(120X32) times your bet.

Any Downsides?

The biggest downsides of the Chinese Spider Slot is that it lacks a free spins bonus round and that its Return to Player percentage is at a low 95%. However, the fact that its potential goes all the way to 3840000 coins and that triggering wins is beyond easy, all thanks to just 3 symbols across a payline, conceals both of these potential flaws.
