Tiger Treasures is a slot from RTG that isn’t themed just around tigers and treasures, but also around the jungles and forests of East Asia, specifically those from China. As evidenced by the presence of the Chinese logo and the Panda bear, the slot does have a focus on things that the Chinese rapid industrialization tends to threaten, meaning the nature and the beautiful flowers and creatures you will find there. The action takes place inside a forest with bamboo trees all around.
The slot gives you 5 reels and a total of 20 lines to play on. The top payout of 4,500 coins can be enough to get you to play the slot ($22,500), but the game adds a random progressive jackpot as well and that should seal the deal. Among the features that improve the game tremendously you will notice the presence of the scatter or the wild symbols, but also the presence of multipliers and free spins bonus games.
Features of Tiger Treasures
You will find the feature section to be quite average. Though the game doesn’t just give you the basics and nothing more, it doesn’t stand out with its features either.
The Tiger, the one that the slot is named after, is selected for the role of the wild feature. You will find it appear as a regular wild on the 2nd and 4th reels, while in the base game. Prizes will always get tripled when these wilds give their contribution to the formation of a combination.
The Chinese Logo constitutes the other half of the feature symbol line-up. The scatter is named this way because its symbols can be scattered all around the reels, and they will still award you their prizes (they don’t need the symbols on the same line, as regular symbols do). In this case, the scatter symbols will give you prizes when 2+ are present, with bigger prizes offered when you have all five on the screen (100x the triggering bet value).
Free Games Feature
The same Chinese Logo scatter also gets to trigger the free spins of the slot. Between 5 and 25 spins can be won, but only if the scatter symbols appear in a certain order starting from the Right or the Left of the reels (which limits their use and makes it difficult to trigger the feature). As you’re using these free spins, you will benefit from the presence of Tiger wilds on the 3rd reel, plus the original two reels get even more of them.
Betting options and jackpots
Getting started with the Tiger Treasures betting system is quite easy. You only need to decide on the coin value you want to work with, then on how many lines you want to use these coins. The value of a coin starts at $0.01, while its higher limit is at $5. The slot has 20 lines, so the maximum bet possible is $100.
With a bit of a help from the wild’s multiplier, the top jackpot here is at 4,500 coins ($22,500). The random progressive jackpot is the alternative, but it’s not a terribly attractive one or easy to trigger.
Design and symbols
Thanks to the heavy Chinese influence in the game, you’re going to find that besides the bamboo forest, the Panda bears and the tigers, you also get playing cards drawn in an Asian style, or delicate flowers that seem to be inspired by the same culture. It’s an average looking game though, certainly not as good as some of the other Chinese slots released these last few years.
Symbols: Chinese Sign (scatter, 100x the bet), Tiger (wild), Diamonds (1,500x), Panda Bear (1,000x), Flower (500x), Butterfly (500x), Ace (200x), King (200x), Queen (125x), Jack (125x), Ten (100x), Nine (100x).
Is It Worth Playing?
It’s the kind of game that you want to play if the theme is something that interests you, but unless you love the topic you can find slot machines that are just as good and with better graphics.
Tiger Treasures can be found at any RTG casino, where you get a chance to play it for real money or in free mode.
