China Long Slot
We’re all on the lookout for serenity, a means of escape, and thanks to the tranquil sounds of the Far East, WorldMatch has created the perfect slot for us to achieve enlightenment. All you have to do is just give yourself to the allure of the 25 paylines and 5-reels.
Housed within a 5x3 grid, a range of oriental symbols will ease you along the path to an elusive jackpot whose final total is hidden away from users until the amount lights up their screen.
This slot machine may be a far cry from experiencing the realities of China for yourself, but for when you can’t physically be there, this is the next best thing, and it pays out some healthy real money prises, something a holiday certainly can’t!
Inner Peace
The enchantment with grab you the moment the title loads and presents you with a beautifully rendered matrix of oriental icons, namely dragon and bat pearls, koi carp, Chinese dragons and traditional Chinese calligraphy.
While each of these images are personalised to the theme, the lower value tiles which are associated with card values, are simply embellished letters. That being said, they’re still decorative and visually appealing, if not different.
The J and Q are the lowest icons and will reward between 2 to 75 coins depending on how many of them you line up. As for the most rewarding of the symbols, that’s the Yin and Yang motif that’ll give you a lovely 1,500, a sum that is sure to deliver you to happiness.
If players are keen to get themselves the highest stakes as well as the wonder of tranquility, then they need to find as many wilds, scatters and bonus tiles as possible, disguised as a bat, the Chinese dragon, and a dragon claw grasping a pearl.
Three or more bats will award you a set amount of free spins, with three icons equalling 12, increasing all the way to five tiles giving a huge 20 bonus spin total. As standard for a wild tile, the brightly decorated dragon whizzes and whirls, while removing all icons bar the scatter and bonus. This is well and good, and sure to soothe the journey to Nirvana, but three or more dragon claws will uncover a bonus round.
A Little Something Extra
The bonus game is a simple but enjoyable round that makes you choose from five glowing pearls, each of which hide their true values until you select the one of your choice. After you’ve made your decision the other prizes will be revealed to you, so you can see just how much lady luck was on your side.

Everything You Dreamed Of?
Sometimes slot machines can miss the mark completely, but this isn’t the case with China Long: it’s a subtle masterpiece that, while not all bells and whistles, is an immersive experience. The sound coupled with the action transports you across the world with a simple spin of the reels.
In regards to the downside, it’s the lack of uniqueness on offer here - for a game so textured, it seems odd that not all the icons were created so lovingly, not just the most rewarding.
