The path to enlightenment is never an easy one – but when NetEnt takes you on it, it’s bound to be exhilarating. This renowned casino game developer and a creator of many punters’ favorite titles has come up with an extremely interesting and intriguing subject for a slot game, with an equally successful execution in terms of graphics and gameplay.
The Legend of Shangri-La: Cluster Pays is many things, but in its core, it is a six-reel, five-row game with astonishing visuals and animations – seriously, it’s enough to just bask and revel in game’s eye-candy to get the feeling of utmost satisfaction, never mind the potential winnings you may make. Speaking of winnings, there aren’t paylines as such here: no need to make matches from left to right or in reverse, or symbols patterns. Having as many same symbols as close to each other. At least nine identical symbols will grant big wins to players, but there’s no need to limit oneself: landing more than that guarantees even bigger payouts. When a player lands some low-value symbols of the same ilk – dragonflies, butterflies, flowers or fish – smaller wins will be granted, but pay closer attention to high value symbols that are praying animals – monkey, can and elephant. Also, there are no wild symbols per se, but you will encounter an elusive question mark every now and then – and that’s when it’ll turn into whatever the symbol is most needed for a win to be had. Very neat! Some of the wonderful features you will get to know along the way are Random Substitutions, Sticky Re-Spins, Nudge Reels and Free Spins.
Thematically, the game is a mixture of fairy tale visuals and sound effects and the spiritual journey of a Zen monk. So, right off the bat, you understand this is a very rare feat and a very welcome change of pace. The visual portion of the game is as beautiful as we have come to expect from NetEnt’s growing standards. The animated spiritual guru of a Himalayan species will be your trustful guide, standing to the left of the grid, and being very lively and animated (even occasionally using his divine powers to intervene when necessary). The setting is a vibrant, gorgeous Asian paradise of a landscape with cherry blossoms, streams and pagodas that turns to a winter wonderland once the Free Spin mode is triggered – a wonderland that is actually a battle ground between the monk and the sinister dragon. The grid is adorned with elegant columns with intrinsic carvings. Game’s soundtrack is very lush and combines an immersive musical score and a variety of sound effects, like Zen master’s occasional grunts of approval, surprise and joy.
