Head to far East to hang out with our favourite trickster here for fun, or at any iSoftBet Casino and do it for real.

Slot Features
Wild symbol can substitute for all the symbols in the game to help form winning combos, however, it can appear only on reel 2.
Ladder
On the right from the reels, you will notice 3 Ladders that are displayed as cash values but are in fact multipliers of the spin bet. Left Ladder offer prizes from x2.5 spin bet per step and goes up to x50 spin bet. Center Ladder comes with prizes between x25 spin bet per step up to x500 spin bet, and Right Ladder offers prizes from x6 spin bet per step up to x120 spin bet.
You will progress through the Ladder by getting 2 or 3 matching symbols to appear on one of the active pay lines. Your prizes will show as Ladder progress but will not be automatically collected until you decide to hit the Collect button. However, keep in mind that when you hit collect, the progress on the ladder is diminished and you go back to start, to step one.
Cash Pot & Instant Pay
Cash Pot value is the sum of all the values from all three ladders. Keep in mind that if the Genie appears on screen before you collect your values from the Cash Pot, he will steal it all, and you will get back to the beginning. Moreover, any bet change will also reset the pot.
Instant Pay is activated when you reach the top of any ladder and the prizes will get displayed in this panel. These can be collected by hitting the button or with Cash Pot, but the Instant Pay steps will reset at the beginning of each spin. However, the ladder will remain full if only the Instant Pay is collected, but not the Cash Pot.
Summary
Rise of the Genie is stunning. Everything shines and sparkles and gives out that feel of abundant life. What we were surprised with is that Genie is the real trickster here that will not help you, but steal from you, so watch out. Even though the grid size is basic, the gameplay is fairly interesting and somewhat different from what we’re used to. In terms of numbers, the game is disappointing if you are an adrenaline chaser because it comes with medium volatility, 96.46% RTP and x500 max win exposure.
