Asian Attraction slot summary
Asian Attraction slot is a realively rare theme from Novomatic, who until recently, didn't seem to have a propensity to churn out continuous Oriental-themed slots. We still get the usual mechanical sound Novomatic slots have when the reels stop but of course we have the addition of pipe-and-gong Japanese music and effects added this time. The word 'attraction' may tell you the subjects are attractive girls from the Far East, judging by their pinned hairstyles are meant to be Geishas. So do we have a sprinkling of Eastern promise here?
On the reels...
We begin with the lower pays being formed of the usual card icons which the designers haven't even bothered to make Japanese-style. There are 20 pay lines over 5 reels and 3 rows and our four gorgeous Geishas make up the premium symbols, which like all appear singly on the reels. The pink Geisha pays 25x bet for 5-of-a-kind, the green 15x, the purple 12.5x and the blue 10x bet. The Asian Attraction Wild appears on the centre 3 reels but doesn't multiply or double up as a scatter: we leave the that to the Pink Lotus Flower which appears on all 5 reels. The symbols all need a minimum 3-of-a-kind to pay, unlike many Novomatic slots like Book Of Ra where 2 premium icons will award a win.
Geisha games
So if we land 3 or more Pink Lotus scatters we are award the game's only bonus, a free spins round. There are retriggers possible too and you can earn 3 extra spins by seeing the special framed Lotus Flower land on reel 3, the only place it can appear. This because the reels are enhanced with super-stacked Pink Geishas, the highest-paying icon. There is no multiplier so this effectively gives you the chance to win the slot's highest screen, 500x bet.
Our View...
Asian Attraction slot is to be quite honest just plain average. The sound effects are old and the graphics the distinctly basic Novomatic-style. Even the RTP is average (for Novo games) at 95.05% and the maximum pay well, average! The volatility is low-medium which is the only thing unusual about this game, being a Novomatic who usually churn out quite volatile games. That may be its downfall as players tend to associate them with exciting hit-and-run slots, but not here! I'm sorry, I just cannot see the 'attraction' of this game...
