Fu Er Dai from Play'n GO: Slot Review - luck, luxury and lavishness!

This latest release from acclaimed software studio Play’n GO invites players to hang out with the next-generation nouveau riche of Asia. The game title Fu Er Dai is a direct reference to the rising generation of rich young entrepreneurs who are springing up all over China these days thanks to some very wealthy parents. The term basically means “rich second generation” and you can bet your bottom dollar that these kids have it all in life! From fast cars, gold watches, designer clothes, to the best education money can buy, there is literally nothing that this new wave of rich young people cannot afford. So let’s hang out with this hip young crowd and see if they will share their vast fortunes with you!

Fu Er Dai has 5 reels with 10 paylines and comes with Respins, Sticky Wilds, Expanding Wilds, and Win Spins.

Special Features

The first feature to highlight is the Wild symbol and this is represented by a beautifully designed golden dragon. Like most Wild symbols, its main function is to substitute for all other symbols to help contribute to winning combinations on the reels but it is also used to trigger the two bonus features in this game.

If you manage to land a Wild symbol on reels 2, 3, or 4 then it will magically transform into a girl with a dragon tattoo on her back and will proceed to expand to cover all positions on that reel. That's not all as you’ll also receive a Free Respin with the Wild symbol remaining in place for the Respin.

Land 2 Wild symbols on the reels and you will trigger the Win Spins bonus game. In this feature, you will be awarded 5 Win Spins which basically guarantees a win on each spin as a Wild will remain sticky for the duration of each Win Spin and if new Wilds appear on the reels then the original will remain there for up to 3 spins. It’s actually possible to get up to 3 full Wilds on the reels quite often while playing this feature. Furthermore, every Wild that lands will award you an extra Spin and you can land up to a maximum of 20 Win Spins.

Theme, Graphics and Sound

The graphics are visually stunning as the game is set in a swanky Chinese bar complete with bright red lanterns and you’ll notice 2 beautiful looking golden dragons adorning the top of the reels. Symbols are superbly detailed and consist of a wealthy looking man with shades, a gold watch, a wallet with gold notes, a gold key, and the standard A – 10 icons. The animations are impressive as symbols zip up and down the reels at furious pace and spring into life when part of a winning combination. I really enjoyed watching how the Golden Dragon transforms and expand into a lady whenever it lands on the 3 middle reels in the game.

The music is excellent and features lots of Asian techno sound effects. It ties in nicely with the Oriental theme of the game.

Win lines, Payouts and Jackpots

The game has 10 paylines, a high RTP of 96.5%, and an unbelievable maximum payout worth a whopping 5,000X your wager.

Below is a summary taken from the PayOut Table from the game. The amount won for each combination depends on the value of the bet when you spin the reels.

Our Verdict on Fu Er Dai

This slot is produced by Play’n GO and it’s definitely one of the best Asian-themed slots that I have played in quite some time. The theme is highly original and should appeal to players who enjoy the finer things in life. It’s a game that is really easy on the eye and even better to play and features a decent amount of bonus games. The most rewarding feature of the slot is the Stacked Wild Respins as you can land some massive payouts in excess of a whopping 5,000X your wager on each spin! I found this slot to be of High variance so expect to land a few dry spins before you finally land a big cash payout on the reels. For games with a similar oriental theme, check out Fu Dao Le and Prosperity Palace.

Live the life of luxury when you play Fu Er Dai!
