Gameplay: An easy launch

With an opportunity to bet on up 100 paylines, the slot offers a good chance of winning it epic. So the first step is to select 1, 10, 25, 50, 75 or 100 paylines to activate. You can also select a line bet: it runs from 1 coin up to a theoretically unlimited number (if your balance is high enough, you can place even hundreds of thousands of dollars per spin; high rollers are welcome and appreciated). No doubt such heavy bets will bring you decent wins.

Slot symbols: A grasping story of huge wins

There are 11 non-feature symbols, one of which is also a Wild symbol and a Bonus Scatter. Non-feature symbols depict playing card icons from 9 through to A as well as Bamboo sticks, a Lotus flower, a right-looking Panda, a left-looking Panda and a Family of Pandas (in an ascending order of payout). These symbols pay from the leftmost to the rightmost reel when you land 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols on any active payline.

The wins range from x5 to x1000 your line bet or from 5 coins to 30,000 coins depending on your line bet and a winning combination. You can entrust the slot itself with the thrilling task of winning by using an Autoplay feature that is arranged in the simplest way possible. You place your bet and select the number of spins to play in an autoplay mode, from 10 up to 50 in increments of 10 spins. This is it: the reels start moving and the game proceeds automatically while you enjoy pandas and music. You may cancel an autoplay mode after any spin by pressing the Stop control.

To make the slot show its full earning capacity which extends to cash wins and free spins awards, it is recommended to engage all 100 paylines each spin. Combined with a Wild symbol and a Stacked Wild feature, it makes the slot a true money making machine.

Wild: A manifold symbol

Whatever peaceful may pandas look, they are still wild animals. In this slot the story is all the same: a family of wild pandas is a Wild symbol. It is a manifold icon designed to assist you through the gameplay and help you win it huge. Firstly, this icon also works as a regular, non-feature symbol paying by the general rules: from left to right when 3, 4 or 5 Wild symbols land on an active payline. It pays the highest wins ranging from x100 to x1000 your line bet. Secondly, it acts as a purely Wild symbol doing duty of all other non-feature symbols. It does not, however, substitute for Bonus Scatters. This is actually what you may expect of a Wild symbol yet there is more about Wild symbols in this slot. It is a Stacked Wilds feature.

Stacked Wilds feature

A Stacked Wilds feature improves the winning chances incredibly. It makes Wild symbols appear in stacked positions when they are composing an entire reel. The feature actually transforms a Wild symbol into a Wild reel or Wild reels as the case may be as soon as Wilds appear in any position on any reel in contrast with a Scatter which is tied to certain reels only. With a hundred of paylines activated, you may imagine how many paylines start earning when they cross one, two or even three Wild reels. This feature is available during a base game as well as in a free spin mode, the only difference being that during free spins Wilds become plentiful and appear more often and compose Wild reels more generously. Try the slot and see what a valuable and helpful feature it is!

Panda Free Spins

Free spins are arranged in a way you are going to admire, enjoy and benefit from. They are triggered by a Bonus Scatter symbol depicting a famous yin and yang sign. A Scatter appears on reel 2, 3 and 4 only. Landing 3 Scatter symbols on any of these reels, you earn 10 free spins and an instant cash prize equal to x2 your total bet (not a line bet, so it is a minimum of 200 coins). A Scatter award is paid in addition to your line wins. Free spins start playing immediately, with all the rules referred to above applicable: a Wild symbol and a Stacked Wilds feature do their respective duties in a free spin mode. A Scatter also maintains its magnificent powers during free spins: each time you land 3 Scatters on reel 2, 3 or 4 you are awarded 10 extra free spins and granted a cash prize amounting to x2 your total bet.

This mode is a genuine moneymaker and adds quite a lot of thrills and chills into the gameplay. The matter is that free spins may be retriggered again and again, many times, up to 255 free spins in a row, each time you retrigger a feature with a x2 your total bet award. When you manage to score that number of free spins, a free spin mode stops and a base mode restores. No doubts, 100 Pandas is from the family of slots deserving a good deal of efforts!

Free spins are played at a bet you set for a base game which cannot be changed during free spins. Having in mind the generosity of the paytable along with a chance of winning a Stacked Wilds feature and a multiplying Bonus Scatter, it is recommended to place bets as high as possible taking into account your gambling preferences and allowances.

To make a change of game modes noticeable and keep you constantly aware of a current mode, symbols change colors and become darker during free spins. This feature animates the gameplay and helps you concentrate on what is really important: your bets and winning chances.
