Chang’e Goddess of the Moon is a Chinese-themed slot from Pariplay. The base game action is played using a 5 reel, 20 payline game engine. Trigger the bonus round and you’ll be awarded up to 50 free spins on a 243 ways to win machine. Look out too for the wilds that can lock in place for up to 5 spins. Stakes range from between 0.20 and 10 per spin.

Legend has it that the husband of Chang’e shot down nine of the ten suns in the sky with his bow and arrow, but despite being given the elixir of eternal life as a reward, he didn’t want to take it without her. Forced to drink the elixir by an attacker, Chang’e chose to leave the land and live on the Moon.

The Chang’e Goddess of the Moon slot game looks as charming as it sounds, accompanied by a soothing soundtrack to go with the gentle mechanical sounds of tumbling reels. There’s five of those reels to land symbols across and 20 paylines to bet on, although in a special free spins feature, the format changes to a 243 Ways-to-Win layout for extra winning opportunities.

Set against a backdrop of pagodas, temples and blossom trees, there’s a definite Asian feel to the design here. Joining the lower value A to 10 values are lotus flowers, ruan guitars, a block of pie and a white rabbit. The most lucrative symbol is the potion bottle with the dragon motif which awards 50 times your stake if you land 5 in combination.

The woman is the game’s wild - she can land anywhere on all 5 reels. When she does, the wild is locked in place for between 2 and 5 spins. Land 5 wilds on a payline for a 50 times stake payday.

The main feature offering is the Free Spins feature which is triggered by landing 3 or more of the archer symbol on the same spin. 3 archers will give you 10 to 20 free spins with 4 giving you 21 to 40 free spins. If you get 5 archers, you’ll be rewarded with between 41 and 50 free spins.

These free spins are played out on a new 243 ways to win reel set where winning combinations are created by landing matching symbols on adjacent reels. The sticky wilds are in play during the free spins round too. It’s not possible to re-trigger more free spins though. We landed the feature regularly and would put the variance in the medium range.

In the basic game mode of the Chang’e Goddess of the Moon slot, you win a prize when matching symbols stop across any of the 20 paylines in a continuous sequence from the left side reel. As is common with many games, the lower value, but consequently more frequent wins will come from landing the playing card symbols 10 through to A, but the higher-paying combinations are formed by the unique pictures that give the game its distinctive theme and style.

The lotus flower pays up to 200x the amount staked per line, while there’s prizes of up to 300x when either the guitar or pie appear right across a line. A white rabbit is worth a maximum of 600x and that valuable elixir bottle returns a very nice 1,000x the line bet when it stops across the reels.

You can also win up to 1,000x when the picture of Chang’e is seen right across a payline. She’s also a special wild symbol who will be able to act as all except the archer, completing combinations by filling in any gaps in a sequence of other symbols, or turning winning lines into higher-value runs across more reels to the right side. Making this task even easier, she can stick around in the same places for up to five more spins and if more images of Chang’e appear in this time, you can end up with lots of wild symbols on the reels at once, for the potential of multiple wins.
