Penguin City is the brand-new release (launched 24th July 2018) from those clever people at Yggdrasil Gaming and plays out over 5-reels and rather than pay lines offers 243 ways to win.
Penguin City Overview
The aim of the casino games is for players to help the worker penguins escape from the kitchen of the Penguin Emperor’s Chinese Restaurant. The slot is set against the back drop of the Emperor’s Chinese restaurant and players will come across the playing card suits clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades as well as several food related symbols such as soup bowls, fish broth pots, kitchen cleavers, dark soy sauce bottles, noodle boxed, udon noodles and slices of meat. The slot is visually stunning which is what players will have come to expect from Yggdrasil Gaming and can be played for as little as 10p per spin.
Special Symbols
Penguin City is complete with a sticky wild and the emperor penguin with the highest paying symbol being the box of Chow Mein and this rewards the players with a prize of 250 coins. When players have a wild land on the second or fourth reels it triggers the Penguin Escape Mode. Next players will see the sticky wild lock into place for some free spins which carry on until all the time the players are landing winning spins. On every spin one of the worker penguins makes a bid for freedom provided that the Emperor penguin is not present at the time. If the penguin manages to escape the player will see that there is a sticky wild added to the second and fourth reel, alternatively one symbol will be swapped to to create a win on a losing spin on the third reel. If the players are lucky they will see the Emperor Penguin stacked on the third reel, his activates the Emperor Penguin Feature and the player is guaranteed to land a winning combination.
Penguin City Features
The stacked Emperor wild is a walking wild which means that it will move down one row until it disappears completely from the reels. If the penguin manages to escape the clutches of the Emperor Penguin, they will jump onto the reels and the players reels then spin until they land a winning combination. Although Penguin City is a relatively simple slot it is a lot of fun and whilst it predominantly focuses on the wilds and Emperor Stacked wilds there is nothing wrong with that particularly when there are some big wins on offer, with the maximum win being worth a whopping 1,647 times the players stake on each and every spin. If penguins are your passion, then we would also suggest giving Batman and the Penguin Prize a try from Playtech.
Conclusion
Penguin City is a slot that will grow on you more every time you play it after all penguins are such cuties who could not help but love them. Players should be prepared to wait for a win as it can be a rather stingy game. The mechanics of the game are built around an engaging theme that has already proved to be a great hit with players. It is a shame that there is no free spin feature but with the combination of the walking Emperor wilds and re-spins that are on offer they more than make up for the lack of free spins.
