8 Lucky Charms Slot Game | Spinomenal Slots

8 Lucky Charms is a video slot from a game developer called Spinomenal. 8 Lucky Charms is set around Chinese culture – where the number eight is considered lucky.

With more than 5000 years of history and culture, it’s no surprise we’ve seen so many China-inspired video slots, and like 8 Lucky Charms, many of these games are designed in red – the country’s lucky colour.

8 Lucky Charms slot game is designed around a 5-reel, 3-row layout. There are 50 fixed paylines, and all wins are paid from left to right. In terms of the game’s symbols, there are quite a few. The minimum bet in the video slot is 0.50 credits; the maximum bet can reach as high as 250 credits per spin.

The playing card values, including 10, jack, queen, king, and ace, represent the low-value ones, while China-specific ones are higher-paying. The Tiger is the wild symbol, which substitutes for all other paying symbols; in order words, it doesn’t substitute for the scatter symbols.

Game Features

Like many game developers’ video slots, 8 Lucky Charms contains a few features. The first is a free spins bonus round, and this can be triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 of the scatter symbols anywhere in view. The scatter symbols required to land the free spins bonus round is the Cat.

It doesn’t matter how many scatter symbols you land, you are always given the same choices – and once you’ve landed them in the base game, you’re prompted to choose one of the following options.

5 free spins with a 4X multiplier, 10 free spins with a 2X multiplier, or 20 free spins with no multiplier. We’d recommend choosing one of the first two; no multiplier significantly reduces the odds of you forming a big win. However, we found that the free spins round in 8 Lucky Charms tends to land quite a lot; this means that you can experiment with the different bonus rounds without worrying about the next bonus taking too long to drop in!

Now, another feature comes into play during the free spins. If you land any of the Dragon symbols in view, they will expand. This makes it much easier to make 3-of-a-kind, 4-of-a-kind and 5-of-a-kind combos. It’s unclear whether you can re-trigger the free spins bonus round.

In addition to the free spins, 8 Lucky Charms has a Bonus Feature. This is triggered by landing three of the Ying-Yang scatter symbols. You will then be taken to a “pick me bonus“. On your screen, you will see a number of tiles. You simply need to pick from these tiles and be awarded cash prizes. The bonus round ends when you reveal three of the same value.
