It is adjusted with the help of the New Bet button. The Max Bet key activates the maximum bet amount.

All winnings in the paytable are shown in credits for the current bet amount. To access this information section, players need to press the “i” key. Once all the parameters have been adjusted, players can start spins by clicking on the big round button in the center of the control panel. Payouts are guaranteed for combinations of 3, 4, and 5 identical symbols.

Symbols and Payouts

The playing field of the slot is placed against the backdrop of a blurred oriental landscape with animated falling leaves. As the reels start spinning, players will be offered to listen to a beautiful national Chinese tune. The image of a half-man-half-monkey serves as the wild symbol in the game. The portrait of a Chinese man against a blue backdrop helps form the most expensive combinations. At the minimum bet, payouts for them equal 100, 200, and 1,000 credits. The pig-man brings payouts of 30, 150, and 600. The portrait of a man against a green backdrop pays 25, 100, and 300 credits. The white horse image awards winnings of 25, 100, and 250, and the mountain landscape grants 15, 75, and 200 credits.

The rest of the symbols pay in the following way:

• Ring, magic stick – 10, 50, 150.
• Lotus – 5, 25, 100.
• Book – 5, 25, 70.
• Pink fruit – 5, 20, 50.
• Golden cloud – 5, 15, 50.

The scatter symbol in the game is a green hieroglyph. It increases the total bet by 2, 3, and 5 times.

Journey to the West Slot Bonuses

Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols gives the player 9 free spins. During them, the night landscape in the game switches to a daytime one. While this feature is active, it gets even easier for the player to receive large payouts. After any spin, a monkey-man can appear near the reels. He beats the playing field with his magic stick, which causes one to three central reels to fill with a full-sized wild symbol.

How to win?

The RTP of the Journey to the West slot is 94%. As usual, the most impressive payouts are likely to occur during free spins. If the bet is at its maximum by the time the feature is activated, the user can expect the largest winnings. For this reason, it makes sense to keep increasing the bet amount until 3, 4, or 5 scatters land.
