Gold Dragon Slots
Golden Dragon offers a wide selection of Slot Games from different trusted providers like Asia Live Tech, MrSlotty, BBIN, BBTECH and many more. Though it’s traditionally a land-based game, players now can play the 5 Dragons Gold Slot online. Free versions exist in demo version at online casinos and review sites alike. Like earlier Aristocrat Asian-themed games, the main focus of 5 Dragons Gold Slots is a free spins bonus game. You can choose your preferred level of volatility during this bonus and will find multipliers coming via the dragons – as well.
Coin Denominations & Jackpots
There are plenty of regular-sized wins that come from the standard gameplay too. These include a 1,000-coin top prize for lining up five of the gold and blue birds on one of the 50 win-lines. Four of these are worth 100 coins and you’ll get 50 coins for just three. Not far behind this are a majestic-looking golden lion and the traditional golden carp, each worth 800 coins if you hit three.
This is a 50 win-line slot as a default, with the minimum spin amount at $0.50. Maximums will depend on where you play, though some online commenters have suggested these are on the lower side. This type of slot is ideal for auto-play.
Bonus Rounds & Fun Bonus Features
The bonus game features an exciting combination of free spins and multipliers. Before you start the free spins, you’ll have a choice of how many spins to take. You can choose to have 25 spins (with lower multipliers up to 5x) or as few as six free spins with multipliers of up to 40x each win.

What you will find is that the prizes even out over time, with the higher number of spins giving you more consistent yet smaller wins and the lower number of spins with a higher multiplier giving you the potential for big windfalls (but the chance of missing out too!).
Aristocrat often relies on multipliers in its games to provide you with those bigger windfalls. These can be as big as 40x during the main bonus feature. If you are not sure how much volatility you want to take, you can also go for the ‘mystery’ option which will assign one at random. In order to get the multipliers, you need to create wins with dragons. This is made easier by the addition of an extra row of symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4. This expands the slot, giving you a shot at many more winning combinations while the bonus round is in play.
Bonus Feature: 5 Dragons Gold Bonus Game
Golden coins are the scatter symbols for 5 Dragons Gold. These award prizes are multiples of your total spin amount based on the total number in view on the reels. If you hit five this is 20x your total bet, with 5x that bet awarded for four and 2x for three. If you hit three scatters, you will also trigger the free spins bonus feature.
When you hit the free spins, the random multipliers are animated and appear from a big ball of fire above the reels (in a suitably Asian font style). There is traditional music playing while you spin, as well as the odd clichéd gong crash for good measure.
Bonus Feature: Golden Dragons Wild Symbols
Red Gold Dragon Slots Machine
Golden dragons are wild symbols and also come with multipliers. These come in several colors, and appear on reels 2, 3 and 4 and substitute for any of the regular symbols (though not the scatters). The gold-faced dragon has special properties, adding multipliers of between 1x and 40x what is written on the pay table.

The other unique regular symbols are a gold and purple tortoise and a lucky red bag containing coins (each get you 300 for five and pay from three of a kind). There are the standard Aristocrat playing card symbols ace down to nine to make up the smaller wins.
