Happy Panda

Happy Panda Slot Machine NetEnt

Beautiful animation, music, scenery, and imagery define Happy Panda, the latest slot game from Netent. The jungles of Asia sit in the background of this 5 reel slot game as players determine their bets by controlling both the value of coins and size of bet they are playing.

Watch for pink lotus flowers that will earn players free spin. And watch for Wild tiles that only slide down one spot on their reels, meaning you can earn points from the same wild tile for multiple turns. Happy Panda also features a great bonus game that hands out huge payouts for players lucky enough to earn them in this 20 payline game.

Theme

The jungles of rural Asia play the part of the central theme of Happy Panda. Now, notice I didn’t say the Panda was the central theme. The panda appears on screen once when the game starts. That will be the last time you see him. Instead, it’s the music and jungle scenery that establish the theme of the game. Players open the game with 500000 credits. Players can bet starting at .20 a credit as they attempt to earn any of the game’s three jackpots and they can exercise a bet level anywhere between 1 and 10. Paylines are fixed, so players will have to play for all 20 of the game’s paylines.

Symbols

Happy Panda features 11 symbols: the letters J, Q, K, and A. Five symbols are standard earning tiles that represent living things in the Asian jungle: bamboo, duck, geese, and fish. Pink lotus flowers give players free spins when they hit three or more of them. The panda appears again as the wild symbol. One unique element about the Wild tile in Happy Panda is if your tile lands on top of the reel, it only slides down one spot on the reel. So players can keep using the same wild tile for up to three different spins. Happy Panda also offers a gold panda coin. Players who land three of these coins gets to play a bonus level that is coins only. Large winnings are guaranteed as players spin and land on 15 coins of various values.

Review of Happy Panda by NetEnt

The panda is the most deceiving part of Happy Panda. Many players will log in to play and be disappointed to only see the panda appear once. And that panda is not a moving picture like many main characters in games. It’s a still picture. So don’t play Happy Panda if your love of Asian culture is limited to the Panda. But other than that, the elegant imagery and music in Happy Panda is so peaceful and relaxing. Players might even treat the game less like high stakes slots and more like an exercise for peace and relaxation. Players who love rural Asian culture and want to relax while playing a slot game will love Happy Panda.
