There is no shortage of online slots that have different types of Asian themes. The Golden Offer slot by Red Tiger Gaming focuses on a particular type of lion, though it has some of the decorations and style that comes along with traditional Asian motifs. This title has a larger playing field than many slots, and it also has a different way of allowing you to choose bonus features by offering you a selection, which is where the name of the game comes from.

Format and Game Layout

There are 40 paylines in this game, but it doesn't follow the usual sizing and layout that you typically see in a video slot. The reels don't even form a rectangle. Instead, there are three symbols showing on the first and last reels with five symbols showing on the middle three. That has some interesting affects on the gameplay, especially with symbols showing up stacked quite often. Some companies will use non-standard layouts just for the sake of looking different, but it's actually an important part of the gameplay here.

Betting in a lot of games gets very over-complicated with different controls and several ways to affect the total amount that you're wagering. With this title, it's made as simple as it can probably ever be made. You just choose from a total bet size, and you can increase or decrease it with simple left and right controls. The lowest amount you can bet in one spin is $0.20, but you can wager up to $500 per turn based on the specifications of the game. With that having been said, many casinos limit the maximum bet to a value as low as $100.

Wild Symbol

One symbol that you'll really want to see a lot of is the golden globe symbol framed in a golden rectangle. This is the wild, and you'll find that it appears on every reel. When you get five of them on a payline, you'll be awarded the largest regular payout that this game has to offer, and that's 800x. You can also pick up a very solid 320x win for four of a kind, or you can make it 80x for just three. In any case, these are very solid payouts.

Lion Features and the Golden Offer

Chosen at random after any given spin, you can trigger the Golden Offer feature. The way this works is that you will be offered a series of yes or no offers to pick from different features. However, you never know which is going to come up next, and if you say no too many times, then it forces you into one of the four. These four features give you some pretty improved chances of winning during some free spins, and that means opportunities for even better payouts.

The Four Lion's Features

The first feature you can get is Special Reels, and what that does is that it takes the card rank symbols completely off of the reels to increase your chances of getting payouts and of those payouts being larger on average.

Another feature is the wild reels, and it puts whole reels of wild symbols on the game board. With some of the reels being five symbols high, it's easy to see how that adds a lot of value and better chances of winning.

The Lion's Nudge feature creates a situation where individual reels can be nudged in one direction or the other to give you better wins than you would have gotten either way. The net effect is that your average payout just increases by itself with these nudges.

The fourth and final feature available is the Swap Tiles feature, and that has high-paying symbols jump in over the place of low-paying, card rank symbols. This gives you better chances for high-end payouts, but you won't lose any low-level payouts in the process

Important Wins and the Symbol Set

Aside from the wild, there are three other symbols with some pretty good payouts. The lion's head gets you 400x for five of a kind, and the golden yin-yang pays 200x. You can also earn 96x, an admittedly uneven number, for five of the pearl symbol.

From there, things drop down to the card rank levels. The wins for the A, K, Q, J and 10 vary from 48x down to a super-low 16x.

Overview

With Golden Offer by Red Tiger Gaming, the entire slot is centered around a method of giving players influence over which bonus features they get that we can't remember having seen before. It's a nice approach because it gives you more influence than you'd typically get while also putting you in a position where there's enough chance involved to keep it exciting. The graphics are above-average at best, and it's not in-depth enough to win a bunch of awards, but it's a solid game overall.
