Mahjong Wins – Gong Xi Fa Cai

The base game uses the classic 5×3 field with 25 or 20 paylines (depending on the version). All wins go from left to right, and the main action is based on collecting combinations of identical mahjong tiles. Small winnings often fall out, which allows you to keep the balance even on a small bet. Sometimes Wild appears on the field - a golden bar that helps to complete the combinations. The special effects and animations are restrained, but each win is marked with a festive "ding" or an animated clapperboard.

The bonus is the traditional Free Spins, which are triggered when three or more Scatter symbols appear (a golden gong or a special festive tile). In the Free Spins mode, additional Wilds often appear, and multipliers can increase with each new win. Sometimes there is an Expanding Wild chip, when a golden tile occupies the entire reel, or a "Sticky Wild" mode, when the Wild remains on the field until the end of the bonus.

In most versions, the slot does not offer Bonus Buy - the bonus must be caught fairly, but the pleasure of winning is only more pleasant. If more Scatters appear during the bonus, you can get additional Free Spins.

The symbols are mahjong tiles of different colours and shapes, as well as thematic bonus and special elements: a golden dragon, a red lantern, a gold coin, and a lotus. The most valuable is usually a gold bar or a dragon, red and green tiles give medium payouts, and simple symbols give the minimum payouts. Wild is a golden bar with a hieroglyph, Scatter is a gong or festive tile with the inscription "Gong Xi Fa Cai".

The entire paytable is designed to support frequent small wins and rare but tangible wins in the bonus.

The maximum winning is usually about x5000 of the bet (check for a specific version). To reach the cap, you need to catch a full screen of top tiles with a multiplier in Free Spins. In the real game, it is most often possible to deposit in the range of x100-x400 for the bonus, and the base game rarely leaves without payouts for a long time. The volatility is medium — you can keep the balance here for a long time, and large big wins happen in Free Spins with a good Wild series.

The graphics are warm, bright and very "Chinese": gold coins, lanterns, dragons and, of course, the mahjong tiles themselves. The symbols are drawn clearly and recognizably, the animations are smooth, and the special effects are not annoying. The music is festive, with East-Asian-themed motifs, easily immersing you in the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

Mahjong Wins – Gong Xi Fa Cai is suitable for everyone who loves East-Asian-themed themes, simple mechanics and a pleasant atmosphere. A great option for beginners, for short relaxed sessions and for those who want to plunge into the holiday without unnecessary risk. Not for high rollers and fans of "action", but for a relaxing holiday and aesthetics - ideal.

The RTP is usually around 96.05%, but in some casinos it can be reduced to 94% or lower – be sure to check this figure before playing. Volatility is average: don't bet more than 1-2% of your bankroll per spin, especially if you're planning a long session. The slot is great for autospins and long riding.
