Payline Description

15 Dragon Pearls: Hold and Win is played on a 5×3 grid with 30 fixed paylines. To form a winning combination, matching symbols must land on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel. The dragon pearl is the game’s scatter symbol. When three or more pearls land anywhere on the reels, they trigger the Hold and Win feature. This innovative mechanic locks the pearls in place and respins the other reels to give more chances at forming winning symbol chains. Up to 15 locked pearls can appear per feature trigger, setting up some highly lucrative potential prize payouts.

Symbols Types

The main game icons in 15 Dragon Pearls are thematic icons related to Asian culture. The top five standard symbols ranked from highest to lowest value are:

• Red envelope
• Turtle
• Frog
• Koi fish
• Fan

The pearl scatter is the most valuable, capable of awarding prize payouts of up to 2,500 times the total bet. When six or more pearls trigger the Hold and Win feature, they remain on screen while the other reels respin up to 250 times, continuing to form winning combinations with every new spin.
