On landing 3+ yin-yang, three triangular Chinese lanterns pop up. Panda King offers—embedded on the lanterns—a choice of these three batches of free games. Choice one: eight free spins whose inner reels display the panda instead of the waterfalls, coins, lotuses, ingots, and pagodas.

Choice two: ten free spins whose inner reels display the panda instead of the waterfalls, coins, lotuses, and pagodas. Choice three: 12 free spins whose inner reels display the panda instead of the waterfalls, coins, and pagodas.

A substituted five-of-a-kind of “blessing” logograms: is a wins-doubling combination (if with two substituting pandas); or a wins-tripling combination (if with three substituting pandas).

Minimum win: $0.02 for a two-of-a-kind of waterfalls or coins. Maximum win: a $200000.00 non-progressive jackpot for a five-of-a-kind of yin-yang in regular games.

Panda King has good software: HTML5 technology; mobile/desktop versions; bet history; and 10/25/50/75/100 auto spins.
