BGaming teams up with Chinese game designers to launch new Asian-themed slot Book of Panda MEGAWAYS

iGaming content provider BGaming has collaborated with Chinese game designers to develop its new release, titled Book of Panda MEGAWAYS. This Asian-themed slot offers a slew of features, including Wild and Scatter symbols, free spins with an expanding symbol and x2 to x100 multipliers, Buy Bonus and Buy Chance.

Set against the backdrop of a Chinese temple, Book of Panda MEGAWAYS welcomes players to celebrate the magical charm of China, accompanied by a friendly Panda and symbols such as a lotus, a golden snub-nosed monkey, and bamboo sticks.

With a serene soundtrack and detailed artwork, the base game offers a multi-functioning single scroll symbol, which takes on the role of both Scatters and Wilds. If three or more scrolls appear across reels two to six, Free Spins mode is triggered, offering 12 free spins and the chance to retrigger another dozen.

During Free Spins mode, the Wild/Scatter symbol is assigned a randomized multiplier of x2, x3, x5, or x10, which is applied to the total win of the spin.

In the Bonus Game, a random Expanding symbol covers the entire reel and pays even on non-adjacent reels. To add more thrills, players can purchase a Buy Bonus or Buy Chancex2 option to purchase free spins with any Expanding symbol or high-paying symbols only.

By conveying the delights of Chinese culture, this very-high volatility slot, with 96.95% RTP (Return to Player) and a €250,000 ($267,783) max win promises "an atmospheric gaming experience with a whole host of twists and turns," the company said.

"We were delighted to collaborate with a Chinese team of game designers for the development of our fifth MEGAWAYS release, Book of Panda MEGAWAYS, which truly embraces the wonderful atmosphere and subtleties of Chinese culture,” Yulia Aliakseyeva, co-CPO at BGaming, said.

"In this release, the player will enjoy the sense of surprise as the scroll symbol acts as both Scatters and Wilds, adding an additional thrill to the gaming experience, while Free Spins mode offers the chance to top up their winnings."
