Bonus Rounds in Fat Panda
Top Reel Feature
Fat Panda introduces a top reel positioned above the main grid. This reel spins horizontally and can reveal either blank spaces or modifiers:
- Add Wild: Inserts a wild symbol randomly into the reel beneath it. Expand Wild: If a wild symbol is present in the reel below, it expands to cover the entire reel.
- Add Wild Multiplier: Applies a random multiplier ranging from 2x to 10x to all wild symbols in the reel below. These are then applied to any wins involving those wilds.
- Add Multiplier to all Wilds: Provides a multiplier ranging from 2x to 20x, which is applied to all wild symbols on the screen. These multipliers affect any wins associated with those wilds.
Free Spins Feature
To trigger the Free Spins feature, land 3 or more scatter symbols. This awards you with 10, 12, or 15 free spins. During the free spins round, the gameplay remains consistent with the base game, with one exception: all wild symbols become sticky and remain in place until the end of the feature. Additionally, an Extra Free Spins modifier is introduced to the Top Reel during the free spins round.
21.co.uk Review of Fat Panda
The Fat Panda slot certainly has an impressive design. It's filled with the kind of incredible attention to detail that we've come to expect from Pragmatic Play. And, while there's no shortage of Asian-themed slots out there, Pragmatic Play has breathed new life into the genre with this one. In terms of gameplay, there's also a lot to like. The Top Reel feature is reminiscent of the Prize Disc feature in Megaways slots. For the max win of up to 20,000x, you'll need to combine the top reel modifiers with the Free Spins feature and sticky wilds.
