The Chinese New Year crowned under the sign of the rat will bring prosperity and luck! Just like the BetSoft Gaming provider game of chance named Spring Tails™ that will offer us Lucky Rat Multiplier wilds that will increase your luck up to 60x! But also the Golden Key that will allow rewards in the form of free spins and a Buy Feature that will let us the possibility to buy the free spins for the most impatient.
People of the rat sign are adorable, loyal, honest and kind. On the other hand, it is very difficult to introduce new ideas and concepts because they are extremely stubborn people. They are always satisfied with their way of thinking.
They are very reliable, trustworthy, always very helpful and are sincere friends. A friend under the sign of the rat will always stand by you no matter what and they are very warm-hearted. But it should also be noted that they do not tolerate dishonest people.
They have a very strong sense of intuition and can tell which people deserve to be trusted and which do not. He may become a protector of citizens, social reformer or spiritual leader.
They are not really party people as they prefer the quiet of a home to large groups of people, which will give them a rather quiet social life. They are serious people who place great importance on their work and responsibilities. They will need time to get to grips with things but they are never discouraged.
The Spring Tails™ game will pay out from the left to the right. Wins that coincide on different lines will be added. The highest payout will be paid for each line. Payouts will be reflected by the selected bets. Lucky Rat Multiplier Wilds will land on reels 2, 3 and 4.
Each wild symbol in the Spring Tails™ game of chance includes a multiplier of x3, x4 or x5. The multiplier will be applied to any win that will include this wild symbol. If there are multiple wilds in the same payline, the multipliers will combine.
For example, a x3 multiplier and a x5 multiplier will give a x15 multiplier. The Spring Tails™ wild symbol will substitute for all other symbols except the Golden Key symbol. The maximum multiplier will be x60. If the player finds 3 Golden Key symbols anywhere on the reels, then the free spins will be triggered.
The Spring Tails™ player will be rewarded with 12 free spins. The Royals symbols (the letters of a card deck) will be moved from the reels for the duration of the free spins increasing the chances of winning higher values. There will be no additional free spins that can be triggered during the free spins feature.
The Spring Tails™ scatter will be represented by the Golden Key and will offer wins with 1 or 2 symbols on the reels. The Buy Feature empowers the purchase of 12 free spins. Weak symbols will be removed from the reels for the duration of the free spins purchased which will increase the value of the winnings. The free spins cannot be retriggered during the Buy Feature.
On February 27, 2020, BetSoft Gaming software will release its new Spring Tails™ slot game. Everyone will know perfectly well that this is to nod to the Chinese New Year and its year of the rat symbol of prosperity and intelligence. This year is supposed to bring new energy to companies and the software doesn't want to be left behind: it wants to continue to be in the top rankings.
A mischievous little rat that will wander from side to side to turn symbols into wilds and offer win multipliers. The interface is beautiful, a soundtrack that goes well with it. Unfortunately the return to players will be 95.84% and the volatility rather low and that's a shame as you have to wait quite a few spins to enjoy the free spins.
On the other hand, the BetSoft provider offers us the possibility to buy the free spins. The price of the feature will be directly related to the stake. It can cost from €3 for a bet of €0.05 to €300 for a bet of €5. This is a good point to be able to go straight to the free spins, but the problem will always be the same and the winnings will be waiting for some time. Even though in theory the game can pay out up to 300.364x the stake it's going to be very difficult to reach it.
The bets will range from €0.05 to €5 which is not really huge. It's good for small players because it takes a lot of spins to trigger the features, so it's nice to think about it. But I'm not sure if the big players will be happy about it because they prefer to bet bigger, and €5 might not seem like much. This is another drawback of Betsoft Gaming's gambling game.
As for the gameplay, it's pretty straightforward, wilds and a scatter and free spins and you're set! No overly innovative features and they should think about moving to introduce new technologies like industry giants like Yggdrasil or NetEnt do. Because player demand is more selective and less permissive when looking for a new casino game. On the other hand, it is very possible that it could reach the Asian audience in full force.
The Asian theme is very much favoured in the BetSoft Gaming provider library, one could even say that it is a fetish theme. The player will be able to find the same theme and similar features in Caishen's Arrival™ (2019), the Chinese symbology is omnipresent but also in Bamboo Rush™ (2019) where another animal is used the panda. The gameplay will remain identical wilds, scatters and free spins. Not very original all that!
