Storm Lords Review
Let’s be honest. There are a plethora of Asian-themed slots to choose from. It doesn’t take much of a look around to notice that they’re all over the place. Something needs to really stand out for the typical user to say, “I’m going to take some spins on that one!” When a slot machine comes around with this tried and true, almost weary theme, something has to really stand out for the average user to say, “I’m going to take some spins on that one!” Storm Lords, dare I say, has exactly that! That is, things that will stand out. Keep your wontons safe! There’s actually a lot to talk about here!

Betting and Prizes
Storm Lords gives the user a lot of discretion over the betting system, but the developer still sets the boundaries. There are options to adjust the number of lines (from 1 to 50) as well as the amount of money allocated to each one. The line bet is available in denominations ranging from $0.01 to $2.50. Given the number of lines available, you can spin the reels for as little as $0.01, but you can also stake up to $125 every spin.
Storm Lords offers peak payouts of 800x when the Storm Lords symbols are combined to produce the best earning combos. Fill the reels with these symbols, as well as wilds if you’re lucky ,and you can win up to $100,000.
Storm Lords Slot Features
There will be a couple of Storm Lord wild symbols on the 2nd and 4th reels, and they will only appear on those reels. If the stacked wilds aren’t entirely visible when they land there, they’ll be nudged into place. They eventually take over the full reel and function as substitutes in all winning combinations from there. Only one symbol can’t be replaced by these wilds, and that’s the dispersed Amulet.
Re-spins might be triggered by the game before you reach to the free spins. Treasure Coins, symbols that must occur six times or more, are used to accomplish this. The three re-spins that follow can add more coins, and by the time they’re done, there might be up to 15 of them frozen in place. Each coin you collect results in a monetary prize.
The Amulet scatters are the ones that activate the free spins feature. There are two versions, both with six free spins. The Treasure Spins feature or sticky wilds on the 2nd and 4th reels are available as bonus features (Treasure Coins are sticky on reel 5). While in free spins mode, you can also trigger Treasure Coin bonuses.
Theme & Design
Because the game’s storey is based on ancient Chinese legends, it will include some elements that are now considered fantasy. The two Storm Lords will offer you that side of the game by serving as stacked wilds. Overall, it’s well-designed, with the reels forming part of a temple-like structure. Metallic-looking Royals, elements, warriors, a princess, and a priest adorn the reels.

Our Verdict
It’s one of RTG’s more recent slot machines, a game aimed squarely at the Asian market and telling an intriguing storey that looks to include the elements as well. It has a lot of potential and a unique set of characteristics, thus it has a lot to offer its players.
