Dragon Pearl Overview

Dragon Pearl is an Asian-themed slot from KA Gaming, released on 20 September 2023. It plays on a 5x3 grid with 20 paylines, set inside a dark stone cave guarded by carved dragon pillars. SlotCatalog lists a 96% RTP (the game comes in several RTP versions), bets from 0.20 to 300, and a feature set built around free spins, extra spins and multipliers – including a wild that carries its own multiplier. A volatility rating and a maximum win are not published.

The Paytable

The pay table screen lists every symbol at the current stake. At a $200 total bet ($10 per line) the values for five, four, three and two of a kind are:

  • Golden dragon: $100,000 / $20,000 / $2,000 / $100 – five dragons are 500x the total bet
  • Swordsman and swordswoman: $7,500 / $1,000 / $250 / $30
  • Pot of gold: $4,000 / $1,000 / $250
  • Pearl charm: $2,500 / $750 / $100
  • Gold ingot: $2,500 / $500 / $100
  • A: $1,250 / $500 / $100
  • K, Q and J: $1,000 / $500 or $250 / $50

The golden dragon and the two heroes pay from just two symbols, which keeps small wins coming even on lines that only reach the second reel.

The Table in Multiples

Because the table is shown in dollars at a $200 stake, it helps to translate the top lines into multiples of the total bet:

  • Five dragons: 500x
  • Five swordsmen or swordswomen: 37.5x
  • Five pots of gold: 20x
  • Five pearls or ingots: 12.5x
  • Five aces: 6.25x; five K, Q or J: 5x

The gap between the dragon and everything else is large – the wild line is worth more than thirteen times the best hero line – and with the 2x wild on top, any line that combines dragons with a premium symbol is where the bigger base-game wins come from.

The Wild and Its Multiplier

The golden dragon is also the wild. Every win in our screenshots that included a dragon was marked (2X) in the win bar at the top of the screen, and the numbers confirm it: on line 4, two swordsmen next to a dragon paid $60 – exactly twice the $30 that two swordsmen pay in the table. The wild therefore doubles every line it completes.

What Our Spins Showed

We played the demo at a $200 stake, and the win bar made every line easy to follow:

  • Line 9 wins $500.00 (2X) – a dragon followed by three 9s; together with other lines, the spin paid $1,000 (5x).
  • Line 7 wins $500.00 (2X) – 10s with a dragon in the middle, $500 (2.5x) in total.
  • Line 16 wins $60.00 (2X) – part of a $230 spin.
  • Line 4 wins $60.00 (2X) – the swordsman win from above, part of a $180 spin.

The Pearl Scatter

The crystal pearl held by a golden dragon claw is the scatter. It pays anywhere on the reels: two pearls on our screen produced “SCATTER WINS $400.00” – 2x the total bet. Enough pearls trigger the free spins, and according to SlotCatalog the round can add extra spins and a free spins multiplier on top of the wild’s own 2x. Our screenshots do not show the bonus round itself.

Graphics and Controls

The reels are framed by two stone pillars carved with dragon heads, with 20 LINES written in gold on both sides. The high symbols are painted portraits and treasures – the gold pot, the green-topped ingot, the crystal pearl – while the card symbols are cut from blue, green and orange gemstones. Winning symbols light up in flames. Below the reels you find the NEW BET and MAX BET buttons and a central spin button that can be held for autoplay.
