Five Tiger Generals Slot Machine

Five generals, 5 reels and a 5 of a kind jackpot. Experience all the 5s as you roll the reels of Playtech’s Five Tiger Generals. The game, which has a Chinese theme, is one of Playtech’s better looking slots, with a quintet of sharp looking protagonists who appear ready to wage war. 

The game’s logo is rendered in a splash of red and Mandarin while the backdrop is a grayscale collage of Chinese generals armoured up and flashing their swords like they mean business. To the left of the reels, all 5 general can be seen accompanied by the value of the jackpot assigned to each one. This value will increase as you raise the bet level. 

Crank it up to the max and the orange general is worth €124, the purple general €280, the blue general €600, the red general €1,000 and, at the top of the heap, the green general who’s worth €2,000. With the bet value set to minimum, the green general’s value drops to €200. 

General Settings

While the 5 of a kind jackpot represents a change in approach by Playtech, the game controls adhere to the firm’s tried and tested approach, complete with an arrow to the left of the reels adjusting line bet, which goes from 0.04 to 0.40, and a spin button to the right of the reels. 

Hold this down for a second to activate autospin and to select the number of spins that should be taken on your behalf. 

Nestling alongside the line bet controls, incidentally, on the far left, is a turbo button. Toggling it off will disable certain sound effects and features. 

Because Five Tiger Generals has just 15 paylines – a figure which, in true Playtech fashion, remains fixed – the maximum cost of each spin is limited to €6. This proves to be no impediment to winning serious money however, thanks to the value of the jackpot generals. 

The other game settings you may require, pertaining to audio and animations, are sited on the top right of the screen. It’s here you’ll also find the paytable and help sections. 

Five Ways to Win

With 5 generals all competing for attention, the remaining symbols on the reels largely consist of playing card values. There’s more than enough to look at however once you start rolling the reels and the action begins in earnest. It becomes immediately apparent that this game is superior to most of Playtech’s other offerings; the detailed graphics, smooth animations and unique jackpot system make sure of that. 

Jackpot Generals

When you’ve successfully landed colour matched generals on the first 4 reels, the fifth will then spin to determine the colour of the final general required to complete the set. 

The reel will be outlined in flames as this happens; click on it and the fifth reel will come to a halt. Even if you’ve proven unsuccessful in matching 5 identical generals, 4 will be enough to still secure you some decent cash. 

Tame the Tiger

We’ve covered the 5 generals, but where does the tiger element of the title come into play? That’ll be in the form of the wild symbol, played by a tiger’s head set against a rich red tapestry. 

The tiger will show up on reels 2-4, substituting for other playing symbols to help you notch up wins. During the Wild Tiger Super Spin feature, wilds may appear on all 5 reels. 

Free Games Galore

Scatter is claimed by the game’s logo, a method that Playtech are prone to deploying with most of their slots. With 2 scatters anywhere in view, you’ll be awarded a payout that’s multiplied by your total bet. 

With 3 or more scatters in view, the Tiger General Free Games feature will be triggered. Tap the play button to commence this feature, whereupon the reels will spin automatically, with wild symbols added to a counter to the top right of the reels every time one appears. At the end of this feature, your wilds will be totted up and the value of your win will be revealed. 

In Conclusion

Five Tiger Generals is one of the best 5-reel slots Playtech have produced to date. The 5 of a kind jackpot makes for some real excitement as you wait to discover the colour of the final general, who has the power to dictate whether you win a little or pocket a lot.
