A Dragon’s Story

Hunting dragons is so passé, real fun lies in moving other side and hunt some knights instead. Well, at least the game makers of Dragon Story think that way. In this game chase away the greedy gold digger knight with the help of ultra-powerful and kind of cute Dragon. The story goes that Ruff the Dragon wants to protect his huge gold stash from the hands of a greedy gold thief Knight, Sir William and you have to help him protect his gold. Dragon Story is a video slot game designed and marketed by NextGen Gaming.

About the developer

NextGen Gaming’s follows a story based approach in designing slot games. They are not the standard, simple video slot makers, they will bring backstory, animated creatures and lots of bonus features in all of their games. NextGen Gaming entered the market in 1999 and have been around with very popular games like Gorilla Go Wild, Foxin wins, Irish Wins etc. They are known for their good technology, animated graphics and innovative bonus features.

About the game

First thing that you will notice about Dragon Story is the fun animated characters, Ruff the Dragon has a lovely twinkle in his eye and it clearly looks he wants some fun. Background is full of gold and the reels have symbols related to the story. There are standard card symbols, burnt armour of knights who have previously tried to raid the lair, numbers and two lovely small dragons that turn symbols into wild by setting them on fire.

Second thing that catches your attention is the amount of additional stuff available to do. Dragon Story comes with a free game, Brave Sir William (Bonus), superbet and a gamble feature. It seems that NextGen Gaming doesn’t wants you to leave the lair by providing so many freebies.

This game is five reel and comes with 25 playlines with a betting range of 0.01 to 2.00. Winnings start with playlines, getting 3 to 5 same icons can multiply the bet between 5x to 200x. A gold breathing dragon is the ‘Wild’ and will replace all other symbols to make the winning combinations. They can reward you up to 2000x of your bet money. Collecting three scatterers will trigger the Free Games feature that gives 10 free games with double prizes.

You can also have enhanced reels by betting 25 coins on getting reel 3 enhanced and 50 coins for enhancing all the reels. A real fun feature of Dragon Story is Sir William, he is super sneaky and will try and enter the lair after any paid spin. Just drop a fireball on him so that he drops the treasure he is trying to steal. The size of the treasure he drops increases your price money. The gamble feature lets you stake your winnings and double it by a choice of a card.

Verdict

Fun animated characters, bonus features that are super entertaining and great payout there in no scope of not liking Dragon Story. This game is a complete package and doesn’t disappoint at all.
