Colossal Reels Setup of the Forbidden Dragon Slot
The first thing you’ll notice when the first time you play this free slot machine are the colossal reels. To the left hand of the screen you’ll find an almost standard set of five reels, each reel showing four symbols. However, to the right of the screen you’ll find the colossal reels. There are 5 more reels, which are each 12 symbols high.
At first glance it seems that the two reel sets are completely independent, as each one has its own set of win lines, although this isn’t actually the case, due to the wild symbol. This wild is represented by the yin and yang symbol and appears on both sets of reels. This wild symbol, along with all other symbols in the game is stacked and can fill all an entire reel. When filling a whole reel on the left-hand reel set, the corresponding reel on the right-hand reel set will now become completely wild as well. These wilds will substitute for every other symbol on the reels apart from the bonus one, ensuring that wins can be much easier to come by. On occasion, you’ll find more than one reel on the left-hand reel set filled with wilds and this can make for some huge spins, where the wilds are copied across to the right-hand side.
There is an added bonus in this game not found on all colossal reels games. If one of the reels on the left-hand reel set is partially filled with wilds, you have the opportunity of nudging the reel, ensuring that the whole reel is now wild filled. This will once again be repeated on the right-hand reel set.
The standard paying symbols are a nice mix of Asian icons, including the warrior and the maiden.
5x Win Multiplier Bonus Feature
Forbidden Dragon Slots
The bonus symbol in the game is the kimono dragon which gives the slot its name. This symbol is stacked two high on each of the reels and if you manage to land three or more you’ll enter the bonus feature – these three bonus symbols are across the two reel sets, so if you land two on the left-hand reels and one on the right-hand reels, you’ll win the free spins. This free spins round is one of the best you’ll find online, because as well as the fact that you have 100 win lines, every win during the feature will be subject to a 5x multiplier. As well as the added multiplier, you can also retrigger this feature if landing three more of the bonus symbols, each retrigger adding eight spins to your existing total.
With the 5x multiplier in place, a big winning spin during the feature will make a big difference to your bankroll, so it would make for a very good time to see those wild reels appearing.
The main screen on Forbidden Dragons is a standard 4x5 video slot, with stacked wilds, but the second reel is absolutely enormous. In fact, the second reel is colossal, with 12 rows, and a massive 100 pay-lines, as well as potentially expanding wilds.

Forbidden Dragon Slot Machine
When these games were first released, in some casinos you would have been lucky to even get a seat at the game, it was so popular.
Earlier in the year in AC I also found the game to be very popular - one lady stood behind me for a full 25 minutes, just so she could get the seat after I finished - I've never seen that before!
That lack of colossal reels slots to play was only temporary and has now been rectified, with the addition of a huge number of games in most Vegas casinos, meaning it is much easier to find a real money slot machine these days.
The only downside to the huge number of these machines being placed in the casinos is it means that some of the other excellent G+ and G+ Deluxe slots have now gone. Favorites like dragons Fire with the spitting wilds feature are now harder to find.
