Play Ten Suns for Free

Ten Suns was meant to catch your eye right from the start, and it does so beautifully. The blossoming cherry trees frame the gold and red reels very nicely, with plenty of dynamic animations all around the reels that really make the scene come to life. As far as first impressions go, Ten Suns is doing a very fair job.

The only thing that we really didn’t like was the size of the reels themselves. They are simply way too bulky, and together with the paytable they just block out most of the beautiful landscape beyond. We found this choice particularly unwise, and it spoiled the experience for us quite a bit in the end.

Ten Suns has 5 reels and 25 fixed paylines, with the possibility to adjust your wager with extra precision. You can bet from 0.25 to 125.00per spin and activate an autospin mode to make the experience even more dynamic. Ten Suns has an average volatility, making big wins accessible at any time during the game. Hit the bet max button to go all-in and boost your chances to hit a big win in the process – we actually didn’t have to wait that long before we scored our first big win that way.

Ten Suns contains plenty of red Chinese characters, which nicely replace the usual card icons as the low-paying symbols of the game. The rest of the menu features a princess, the emperor himself, gold coins, statues and mythical beasts, worth at most 1000 times your line bet. The base game in Ten Suns is actually quite fun to play, and rather generous as well.

It all starts with a fearless archer, able to replace the basic symbols as the wild card of Ten Suns. He can even shoot arrows across the screen and add new wilds onto the reels in the process. Treasure chests may also appear at random, which combinations can let you play a mini game with surprises hidden at every click.

Whatever you do, never let the colourful dragons escape your sight. These rarer symbols are the key to the free spin mode, with up to 10 free games at stake. As an extra bonus, all the lower-paying symbols will be removed during the free spins, so whatever you do, you stand a much higher chance to win a larger cash prize every time you spin the reels.

Every player knows that Chinese history and mythology has inspired many slot game developers over the years. As a result, games similar to Ten Suns are anything but rare. Classics like Chinese New Year from Gamesys come with fireworks, free spins and multipliers on top, making it a little more ambitious than Ten Suns overall, at least in terms of bonus features.

Cross the sea and head to Japan with Sakura, a Join Gaming creation with visible cherry blossoms all over - something that we did miss while playing Ten Suns. The game comes with a similar free spin mode, but a much higher volatility as well. Keep that in mind and remember that the more you risk, the higher your chances of winning become.

Ten Suns is overall a high-quality slot game, both visually and in terms of gameplay. Despite the too-large reel set, the general atmosphere of the game is both exciting and beautiful, which is clearly what the Rival Gaming team was going for. The base game was surprisingly generous as well, making Ten Suns quite accessible for beginner gamblers as well.

Ten Suns will probably not be one of the most memorable game we have played, but only because so many other slot machines are based on a similar universe and story. Looking closer, the expanding wilds, generous free spins and overall playability of the game do make it stand out - so give it a try, if you have the chance.
