Bruce Lee: Dragon's Tale Slot Review

WMS are back with a sequel to their popular Bruce Lee slot and once again you’ll find a game that is certainly unique. The original game saw one set of reels with an original set up, but this time around you’ll find four sets of independent reels, each being linked at various stages of the game.

The game, as you might expect, has a distinctly Oriental feel featuring many symbols related to the Far East as well as those associated with the Martial Arts that Bruce Lee was acclaimed for. Bruce Lee appears in two of the symbols, one featuring his hand making a fist with a headshot, while the other shows him in action. All of this is set against a fiery crimson red background, making for a slot that certainly has attitude.

When you enter the game you’ll notice there are four sets of reels – one central set which is accompanied by three smaller sets down the right hand of the screen. Each of the reels has a 5x3 configuration and they all play independently, so you may gain a win at just one reel, or gain wins at all of the four. However they are not completely independent, as the action on the central reel can affect the others. This is because any time either a wild symbol or the feature lands on the central reel; it will be copied across to the others. So, for example, if you land the stacked wild symbol on reel one of the central reels, you’ll have the same stacked wild on reel one on all of the other three reels.

This leads to a scenario where you may have a great number of wins together, as you may see a number of wilds or feature symbols across all 4 reels, so the onus is on gaining a good start with a good number of these symbols on the central reel – this reel spinning before the others.

The game has 80 win lines, which equates to 20 at each of the 4 reels and you’ll pay 1 credit for every 2 lines. The minimum value for each line is just 1c, making the minimum overall stake for each spin just 40c, but you can pay a maximum of $80 for a spin with a coin value of $2.

How to win at Bruce Lee Dragon’s Tale

The largest wins at this slot certainly come your way when landing the free spins bonus feature. This is achieved by hitting three or more of the Yin and Yang feature on any of the sets of reels. Of course, hitting 3 on the original central reel will see the three symbols move to every other set of reels, enabling the free spins feature on all, while landing 2 on the original reel will see you given a great opportunity of landing the feature on the other three sets.

You’ll have 10 free spins during the feature, whether that is on 1, 2, 3 or 4 sets of reels. However the more sets that are in action, the higher the multiplier you’ll receive, with the multiplier starting at 3x for just one, with 3 added for each additional set of reels.

Aside from the bonus feature you’ll win when landing three or more consecutive symbols from left to right on a win line. The title symbol, which also acts as the wild is the joint highest paying at the game, with 200 coins coming your way when hitting five in a row – the Bruce Lee close being the other joint highest paying. Bruce Lee in action and an Oriental dwelling on a blue background come next at 100 coins.

The gameplay experience at the slot is certainly different, as you’ll need eyes in the back of your head to follow all of the action, but the crisp graphic effective graphics on show certainly make for a nice looking game. This is added to by the Oriental theme tune that accompanies the game throughout, which is certainly relaxing and transports you to a time long before Bruce Lee was born.

Overall Experience at the Bruce Lee Dragon’s Tale Slot

This slot is certainly very different to any you will have played before. The game is action packed but after a while you’ll become used to the four reel formation and quickly realize that this a slot where the wilds and the feature symbols on the original reel play a huge part. This makes for a slot where you might have to wait a little while for a win, but when they do come, they’ll come thick and fast – so fans of variance higher variance games will be drawn to this Bruce Lee themed game.
