Caishen's Arrival - Slot Review

You love Slot machines with a Chinese theme? Then you will get "Caishen's Arrival" from the house Betsoft definitely liked. But can the mysterious slot, in which everything revolves around the Chinese god of wealth, also convince with regard to its bonus functions and chances of winning? My following review will tell you.

Design

The design of "Caishen's Arrival" is well done. There are various symbols that are immediately associated with Chinese culture and the actual playing field has also been nicely staged. However, the map symbols that are also used are somehow inappropriate and the rather barren background could have been made a bit more impressive. Unfortunately, the makers wasted a lot of potential here.

Gameplay

"Caishen's Arrival" by Betsoft is a classic slot with 5 reels, 3 rows and 25 paylines. The gameplay itself is relatively simple, because you only have to collect at least three identical symbols from left to right on the field. The already mentioned card symbols are relatively uninteresting because they can only be used to make minimal profits. On the other hand, all symbols related to China are much more interesting. That would be a pot full of gold, a bonsai tree, a rattle, a golden bell, golden bowls and a turtle. The latter is the most valuable standard symbol in the game.

The fact that the pot of gold, of all things, is lined up directly after the card symbols and is therefore not particularly valuable, seems strange at first glance. However, anyone who is familiar with Asian culture should know that turtles enjoy an excellent reputation here and stand for longevity, strength and endurance.

Small and big bets

What is striking about “Caishen's Arrival” is the fact that the maximum bet per spin is just 5 euros. At least 5 cents must be used. Nevertheless, the chances of winning on this slot are relatively good, because with the right amount of luck you can win 33.817 times your stake here. Which in the best case is just under 169.000 euros. However, it would have been nice if the payout ratio would have been a little higher. It is 95,74% and thus just below the magic limit of 96%.

And finally ...

"Caishen's Arrival" is a nice Chinese slot that gives away a lot of potential in terms of its design, but can convince with great chances of winning.
