32Red Casino has just added the brand new Dragonz Slot from Microgaming to their casino, available to play on desktop download, browser and mobile versions of this Microgaming powered casino.

Dragonz is a regular 5×3 reel slot with a 243 way (pay anyway) payline structure, with the minimum bet required being required of 0.40 credits, the slot features 4 cartoon styled dragons Flint, Switch, Frost and Gobble who all have their own unique free spins bonus rounds.

During base game play there are wild symbols present on all reels and a special feature called Wild Deal, which will trigger when a wild symbol lands on reel 3 but does not form a winning combination, this feature then adds several extra wilds onto the reels in random positions and forms a win.

The main bonus round is triggered by landing 3 or more of the special scatter symbols on the reels and this will initial trigger 1 of the 4 different bonus rounds, a nice feature here is that there is a player progression bar which records your bonus rounds, once this special meter has been filled the player is then given the option of choosing exactly which of the Dragonz bonus rounds to pick, and in our playtests some seem to perform much better than others, certainly in terms of volatility and win potential!

You can check out the promotional video for thew Dragons Slot below which covers most of the features available in this new slot.

Dragonz Slot- Bonus Rounds

Until you have filled up the player progression bar you are awarded a random bonus round from the 4 Dragonz available, all of these rounds are unique in the special features that are added during the spins, and some are definitely more volatile and potentially rewarding than others, our advice would be to fill up the bar as soon as possible on minimum bet, then allowing you to select your favourite and your desired stake size.

Dragonz Free Spin Options

The 4 bonuses are as follows,

• Flint – 10 Free Spins with Fire Wilds – the number of wilds added increase through the bonus round as Flint fires off more fireballs onto the reels.
• Switch – 10 Free Spins with Stashed Wilds – non-winning wilds are stored until at least 3 are collected than these are all added onto the reels during the next spin.
• Frost – 10 Free Spins with Frosty Wilds – non-winning wilds are frozen onto the reels until a winning combination is produced on the remaining free spins.
• Gobble – 10 Free Spins with Winning Wilds – Gobble will spit wilds onto the reels, if they form a winning combination they remain on the reels, semi-sticky wilds as long as wins are created.

There are a couple of interesting features to these rounds, for example, during the Switch and Frost bonuses if you have collected wilds stored up or frozen wilds still on the reels then extra spins are granted after the initial 10 free spins have been used until a win is received which is definitely a nice touch.

Overall Opinions on Dragonz Slot

Our initial summary for Dragonz was going to be that although it had very nice graphics, animations, and sounds we felt that overall the bonuses felt a little lacklustre and not rewarding.

As with many slots even our several thousand spins isn’t enough to really test the true potential of a slot, near the end of our playtests we had wins in the base game of over 200x with the Wild Deal feature after adding many extra wilds to the reels.

This was then followed by a Gobble bonus round where wilds were added to the front 3 reels very early on resulting in a 400x stake bonus round with wild symbols on 4 of the 5 reels, resulting in big wins on every remaining free spin.

Our advice – unlock the player progression for the pickable bonus rounds playing on minimum stake and then opt for the highly volatile Gobble Free Spins bonus round!
