Theme and Symbols
Zhao Cai Jin Bao is a nicely designed game with traditional red lanterns behind the reels and recognizable symbols from Chinese culture. Everything about the game is designed to attract luck, wealth, and prosperity. Playing card symbols award the lowest payouts, while Koi Fish, Fenix, Dragon, and Lion carry greater prizes. Man in traditional clothes and golden Chinese ingot - a symbol of prosperity, usually used for New Year festivities to collect lucky coins, appear as special symbols.
Betting Options and Other Functions
This festive online video slot features five reels and three rows, with up to nine paylines, crossed over the screen. Symbols form winning combinations in both directions, so a single line can pay from left and right, but only the highest win per direction will be paid. When full combinations occur, they will be paid only once.
The rules are simple: players set the number of the active lines and the line bet from 0.01 to 1.00.

There are also four symbols that can often be seen in Chinese-themed games. Those symbols give higher payouts for two and more identical icons on the line. Koi Fish and Fenix pay 3, 20, 100, and 1000, while Dragon gives 5, 50, 250, and 2500.
Lion is the highest paying symbol in the game and gives payouts for one and more matching icons – 2, 10, 100, 500, and 5000.
