Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has expanded its Wildlife Series with the launch of Majestic Panda.
Spinomenal’s latest release is a beautifully crafted 5×3 slot presenting a peaceful bamboo forest with koi ponds, temple rooftops, and misty mountain peaks. A calming, Asian-infused soundtrack ensures a tranquil environment to balance the thrill of the spin. Gold coins, ornate fans, red lanterns, bonsai trees, and vibrant peonies bring the game to life.
Finding three powerful Pagoda Free Spins symbols will activate the Free Spins game. Before setting off, players must spin the Wheel of Fortune to set the free spins total, between 10 and 40, and the symbol that doubles for the round.
The bonus feature is triggered when three beautiful bonsai trees appear. Players are granted three spins to begin, and the goal is to fill the metre by collecting Scattered winning symbols. Every five symbols found completes one cell in the metre. Players who find a +1 symbol will be awarded with an extra spin and once the spins end there will be the final payout calculated by the final filled metre cell.
Majestic Panda also features Stacked Wilds where once the reels are spinning, Wild symbols have the power to appear on the reels to boost the potential of a win. During the base game, Only Double Symbols can be activated, making all symbols show in their double form.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Our mission with Majestic Panda was to produce a game that combines the peace and the potential of big wins. The serene setting, calming soundtrack, and multiple features make this a huge success.”
