Jade Valley

Jade Valley is one of the latest free slots from the game developers at Platipus which is played using a 5x3 box layout with 50 pay lines. There are huge prizes on offer when symbols are aligned from left to right, and four truly precious jackpots too. The graphics are stunning being of an oriental style with jade stones which are not only the typical precious stones found in the East, but they also assist players to win even more prizes.

There are warriors and princesses that guard the ancient jade stones and the slot is based entirely on and around the precious stones as “Jade Valley” suggests and is indicative of the valley where these great stones are created.

Graphics and Symbols

The graphics are second to none and it is obvious that the creators have taken time and effort to create a totally amazing ambience, a feature that will see players returning again and again. The most prominent colours used are sky blue and jade green which provide the feeling of serenity and tranquillity. This is all topped off by the haunting (in a good way) soundtrack to provide the complete package that players are looking for.

When it comes to the symbols, players can expect to find the princess who can pay up to 500 coins at a time. She is followed in order by the warrior, sword, jewel then the letters and usual playing card symbols from 10 through to Ace.

The wild is depicted by trees and can replace all symbols apart from the scatter and bonuses symbols. The wild has the value of a joker and comes to life to complete winning combinations. The trees are often stacked and can end up replicating all of the other symbols making it far easier for players to land wins. The scatter is represented by the Chinese red fan and activates the free spins bonus feature.

Bonus and Jackpot

There are two outstanding bonuses, and players may win thousands of chips straight off. The first bonus is the free spins, this is triggered by landing three or more scatters anywhere on the game screen. The second feature is the Jade stones, and this becomes active when the player finds six or more green stones. Finding at least six in the same spin activates the Coin Chain which provide three initial re-spins.

In these re-spins’ players have the opportunity to improve and collect more stones. Every time a stone with Mini, Minor or Major are rolled the player wins the corresponding jackpots and any other prizes shown along the way. If the whole is completely filled with stones the player wins the Grand jackpot.

Verdict

Although there are many slots that have a Chinese theme, Jade Valley takes things a step further with its unique features and stunning graphic design. The slot is playable on all devices and there are up to 100,000 coins up for grabs.

The controls for the slot are basic and straight forward, starting from left to right there is the menu, sound, balance, total bet, bet, auto play, turbo play and finally the spin. I really enjoyed this slot, with the huge jackpots, superb bonus features and easy gameplay what is there not to like? However, don’t take my word for it, give Jade Valley a spin you won’t regret it!
