Description: This is a 3 reels, 5 payline video slot based on the Chinese New Year. Chinese new year is celebrated for 15 days beginning from the 1st to the 15th of the lunar month. According to legend, in ancient China, the Nian was a man-eating beast from the mountains (in some versions from under the sea), who used to come out every 12 months during the winter to prey on humans. People later realized that the Nian was sensitive to loud noises and color red, so they started to use explosions, fireworks and color red to scare it away. These led to the first New Year celebrations, which literally means the passover of the Nian.
The symbols of the game like the Red Chinese Lantern, the red, green and yellow fire crackers along with the Chinese New year logo supports the theme very well. This slot offers a jackpot of 2400 coins, but to win so the player has to bet for the maximum number of coins. Each coin activates an additional payline and also increases the jackpot payout. Thus, it is always better to bet for the maximum.
This slot was launched on the 5th of February 2008.
