The essence of the Chinese New Year is the set of animals that are assigned to different years. Each year is dedicated to one of the animals. Each person also has an animal that belongs to the year in which the person was born. The best Chinese New Year themed video slots feature these animals as symbols on the reels. 4 Seasons from Betsoft and Lucky Zodiac from Microgaming are popular. Lesser known but equally good is Chinese New Year from Play n Go.

The 5x3 reels are set in a typical Chinese courtyard. The symbols are the animals from the Chinese Zodiac. The depiction is bold, in 3D and cartoon style. The tiger is the wild symbol. It also awards the highest line payout of 5000 coins for a combination of five symbols. A combination with four tigers pays 1000 times the line bet. You can expect high volatility in this slot game. The other animals awarding line payouts are rat, ox, rabbit, snake, horse, goat, rooster, dog and pig.

The monkey symbol triggers the free spins feature when it lands on reels 1, 3 and 5 in the same spin. This also pays three times the total bet. You are first taken to the second screen that displays a large wheel containing all the Zodiac animals. The monkey then spins the reel, which determines the animal that will become the extra scatter. The monkey then hits the gong and the number of free spins awarded is displayed. The extra scatter pays as per the regular payout table. However, the symbol can appear anywhere on the reels and the multiplier is applied to the total bet. The feature cannot be retriggered.

Three dragon symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 trigger the pick objects bonus feature on the second screen. You get to pick up to five of the firecrackers displayed on the screen. If the firecracker goes off you will be awarded an instant bonus. If the cracker happens to be a dud then the bonus game will end prematurely. You can win up to 150 times you total spin amount from this game.

A gamble feature can be optionally activated after each one. It gives you the chance to double or quadruple your payout, but you risk losing it all as well. Chinese New Year online slot has 15 selectable paylines. The maximum total bet per spin works out to $75.
