Fei Cui Gong Zhu has a classical feel - set against a simple turquoise backdrop, symbols on the reels include a vase, a fan and a ruby green dragon statue as well as a quintet of brightly coloured Chinese letter characters. The seemingly obligatory beautiful woman is the wild. She substitutes for every other symbol bar the scatter and bonus. Land 5 wilds in a payline and the cashier will ring to a 10,000 coin payout!
Land 3 or more bonus symbols from the leftmost reels to activate the Secret Garden Bonus feature- you'll be presented with 6 water lily flowers. Choose 3, 4 or 5 of them depending on the number of bonus symbols with which you triggered the round - you'll be awarded a cash prize for each one.
In addition to the pick me round, there's a Free Games feature. You'll need to hit 3 or more temple scatter symbols to trigger this where you'll be awarded 10 free spins. All wins during the bonus will be boosted by a 3x multiplier too. There's no limit to the number of times you can re-trigger more free spins either. You can also play the Secret Garden Bonus feature during the free games – sadly, your pick me prizes won't be trebled.
Keep an eye out too for the Dragon Mystery Progressive Jackpot - it's triggered at random and can even hit on unsuccessful spins. Once active, you have to spin a wheel. Collect 3 identical dragon symbols to win the jackpot. You're guaranteed to win at least 1 of the jackpots on offer every time the round is triggered.
The visuals, fine as they are, won't make Fei Cui Gong Zhu stand out in what is a pretty crowded Asian themed slot genre. The range of features are good though - throw in the potential of a progressive jackpot with the standard pick 'em and free spins and Fei Cui Gong Zhu becomes a more interesting proposition.
Fei Cui Gong Zhu may not be the most original title you'll come across. Keeping things simple works in this instance with solid visuals and some quality gameplay make this Chinese-themed offering worth considering. If you like Oriental-themed games, NetEnt’s Koi Princess gives you a taste of anime Japan whilst Aristocrat’s Choy Sun Doa is a very popular choice, both online and in land based casinos.
