Mystery of the Orient Review

The visual presentation in Mystery of the Orient would’ve been run of the mill stuff if it wasn’t for the female warrior on the left-hand side. She stands there with her thousand mile stare and her sword lifted above her head, looking all mysterious and beautiful. She even winks at you on occasions, and you get a cherry blossom backdrop to boot. The reels are filled with Asia-related stuff, including a tiger and the warrior lady herself as the top-tier symbol.

Everything revolves around the Mystery Symbol feature in this game, and it doesn’t reveal ordinary pay symbols either. Instead, you get multiplier wilds up to x25, as well as free spins scatters or cash prize scatters. Landing 5 cash prize scatters awards 8,000x your stake, and the mystery symbol can reveal a reel expanding symbol in the bonus round. This can lead to payouts up to 8,035x your stake, and you get all the details below.

Mystery of the Orient Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 2 and 4 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and you can land Wild Coin symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4.

The Mystery Symbol can land anywhere in all stages of the game, and it will reveal 1 of 3 modifier symbols:

• Scatter symbol - you win 10x, 40x, or 8,000x your stake from 3, 4, or 5 scatters in view, respectively.
• Wild Symbol - these wilds come with a random multiplier of x2, x3, x4, x5, x8, x10, x15, x20, or x25. The multiplier will boost any win the wild or wilds are part of, and the values are added together if more than one wild is part of the same win.
• Free Spins symbol - you need at least 3 in view to trigger the bonus round.

You win 15, 20, or 25 free spins from 3, 4, or 5 free spins scatters, respectively, and the Mystery Symbols come with 2 extra symbols during the bonus round. The Reel Size Increase symbol can be revealed by the Mystery Symbol, and it adds one extra position to the reel it appears on. You can get up to 6 extra positions per reel. The extra free spins symbol can appear both organically and via the Mystery Symbol, and it awards +1 extra spin.

The Bonus Buy feature is not available in all jurisdictions, and not in the UK for sure.

Review Summary

Pragmatic Play partner, Wild Streak Gaming, has a lot of female character-driven slots in their back catalog already, and Mystery of the Orient is spun around a female warrior of some kind. She stands there with her sword above her head all the way, giving you the occasional wink when something happens. The big “mystery” of this game is definitely the mystery symbol, and it’s a bit unusual that it can reveal so many different things.

Most of the time you get a random pay symbol from mystery symbols, but in this game you get 1 of 3 special symbols. The multiplier wild can make a solid dent if you’re lucky, and 5 scatters in view awards 8,000x your stake. The overall max win is 8,035x your stake for some reason, and the grid expanding symbol in the bonus round felt a bit forced. It didn’t really fit, and neither does cringey larger win smiley face comments like ‘Oh My, That Win is so Big!’.

Pros

• Mystery symbol can reveal:
• Additive multiplier wild up to x25
• Scatters for up to 8,000x prizes
• Free Spins scatter symbols
• FS w/ reel size increase symbol
• Win up to 8,035x your stake

Cons

• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
