Dragon Tribe

Dragon Tribe is a 5 reel slot with 4096 ways to win and it comes from Nolimit City game provider. This game came out around 2 years ago and I've played it numerous times. As you can imagine, the game is inspired by the dragon theme and there are several dragon symbols in the game, including the dragon princess. With that being said, I like the game design and it's much calmer from what they design lately. 

When it comes to features, the base game is very simplistic.First of all, after a win, the winning symbols will cascade for new symbols to land in their place. The exciting thing is the dragon egg multipliers- if the multiplier lands on the top of the reel, it will expand and have a multiplier attached- that's when it's possible to get good base game hits. Aside from that, you'll want to see 3 bonus symbols to land the free spins round. 

The free spins round is without a doubt, the most fun thing about the Dragon Tribe game. However, this is where the volatility truly kicks in. The free spins bonus offers two options- lower volatility free spins bonus and high volatility free spins. And while I've tried the low volatility one, I mostly go with the high volatility one. The bonus gives 10 free spins and after 3 wins, one of the dragons turns into a wild symbol for the rest of the bonus, and you also get 2 additional free spins. And as there are 5 dragons, you have the possibility to upgrade all dragons and have all together 20 free spins.Also in the high volatility bonus you get the Xways feature which is almost like mystery symbols feature - and that often results in many dead spins. I've managed to turn all dragons into wilds multiple times and had a few 300x-400x bet wins. However, I have to say this is a game that can be volatile and many times I've had less than 50x bet payouts. Besides, the bonus round can take a while to trigger, but some casinos offer a bonus buy feature for this game. 

Overall, I do like this game and it definitely has the chase element- in the bonus round you definitely want to see all dragons turned into wilds for the big win potential. And while I've had a few nice hits on this game, it can be quite cruel too, with many dead spins. Therefore I'd recommend keeping an eye out on the balance.

Dragon Tribe is a good-looking game and first of the cascade kind which was released by No-Limit City. This slot has superb graphics and animations however I believe the soundtrack is much better for me at least, it just goes with the theme of the slot. You know that adventurous song with you trying to achieve something or go somewhere.

Symbols on the reels include A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 card deck symbols made from bones as well as 5 different cartoon style dragons. There’s also a red hair female character. The lady is the most valuable symbol with 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination giving you 0.5, 1.25, 2.5 or 3.75 times your total bet respectively.

You can form winning combinations by getting matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from reel 1. This game is an always pays game so no need for them to be matching on a payline. When you do get a winning combination, the winning symbols disappear to be replaced by new ones. A cascading reels play feature is active during this which means the spins stop when no more new winning combos are being created by the new landing symbols.

The xNudge feature is exclusive to No-Limit city slots and I hope one day they actually trademark it similar to Big time gaming Megaways engine. There’s a dragon egg wild symbol that can land on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 and this will trigger the xNudge Wild feature. The wild drops down to the bottom of the reel where each step downwards increases the multiplier up to 6x. The reel becomes fully wild with a multiplier and it substitute for any symbols except scatter.

Look out for a mystery symbol, the ‘X’ which appears on all 6 reels, when it appears, it can hold up to 3 symbols to expand that reel’s height. If you manage to expand all 6 reels fully, you’ll get more ways to win, this is called the xWays feature. If you combine this with xNudge Wilds, it can lead to huge wins.

The Dragon Tribe slot comes with a dragon spins feature which can take forever to trigger to be honest. I triggered my first in hundreds of spins. This is played when you get 3 bonus symbols. Your reward is 10 free spins. If you get more bonus symbols, you’ll get 3 additional free spins for each one When you trigger the game with 5 bonus symbols you will be awarded with 16 spins. Wilds become more active, as it turns symbols to extra wilds as you win on every cascade. Similar like the Big Bad Wold from Quickspin.

I love this slot and its at times good for wagering. I had a few decent base game hits but triggered free spins once only. It can be a money eater, but for most, it keeps your cash balance steady as well. If you lucky, x500 – 1000x can be easily reached during free spins.

The slot lacks a multiplier for free spins, although wild gives a multiplier, it does not come that often. I was hoping to see a multiplier similar like Gonzo, per cascade.
