Online slots fans are no strangers to the mysteries and wonders of the Orient but there’s always another game just around the corner to take us back in that direction; this time it’s Pear River Quad Shot, a release from Ainsworth Gaming which offers plenty of wilds and a handful of free spins.
Pearl River Quad Shot is a five reel slot with three rows and twenty five fixed paylines; those reels float above the Pearl River (also known as Zhujiang) and you can see the Quad Shot reel position to the right of the reels which connects to the jackpot prizes shown at the top of the screen.
The higher value symbols include a sailing boat, a Lotus flower, a bird, a shell and a dragonfly; 9, 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower values.
The wild is the girl with the elaborate hairdo and she will substitute for all others to help form winning combinations except for the scattered pearl.
