Dragon Pearl Link is a five-reel, three-row video slot with 50 lines that are always on. Pick a bet of 50, 100, 200, 500 or 1,000 coins with the minus and plus keys (or MAX BET), then tap SPIN or press Space. Tap the reels while they turn to stop them early. AUTO plays 25 spins in a row and TURBO makes the reels faster.
Line wins: three, four or five matching symbols on a line, starting from the leftmost reel. Only the best win on each line pays, and every line win is added together.
Wild dragon: the dragon substitutes for every other symbol except the golden temple and the pearl, and pays the most on its own.
Free games: three or more golden temples on reels 2, 3 and 4 pay a scatter win and start 6 free games played at the same bet. The free reels carry tall stacks of dragons, phoenixes, tigers, koi and ingots. Three temples in free games add 6 more.
Dragon Coins: on about 1 spin in 10 that does not start a feature, the dragon drops a gold coin worth 0.2 to 10 times the bet. It is a fresh draw every spin.
Hoard meter: every paid spin lights one notch of the HOARD meter under the jackpots. At 25 notches the Hoard Bonus pays 3 pearls, each worth 0.2 to 3 times your average bet over those 25 spins, or the MINI jackpot. Then the meter starts again.
Pearl Respin: land 6 or more glowing pearls anywhere. They lock in place, the board turns red and gold, and every other cell respins on its own as a blank or a new pearl. You get 3 respins, and the counter goes back to 3 every time a new pearl lands. When the respins run out the game sweeps across the board and collects every pearl. Fill all 15 cells and you also win the GRAND.
Paytable
Pays below are for the 50-coin bet (1 coin per line) and scale with your bet.

Tap the i key in the game for the paytable at your current bet.
Odds, honestly
We ran the exact game code for 6,000,000 simulated spins (three runs of 2,000,000), every feature and bonus included. The game paid back about 95.5% of what was bet (95.39% to 95.65% per run): roughly 48.8% from line and temple wins, 8.6% from free games, 27.8% from the Pearl Respin, 5.1% from Dragon Coins and 5.2% from the Hoard Bonus. That means over a long session you lose about 4 to 5 coins of every 100 you bet. A spin pays something about 1 time in 3, but many of those wins are smaller than the bet.
Something extra (a Dragon Coin, the Hoard Bonus, free games or the Pearl Respin) happens about 1 spin in 6.4.
A Dragon Coin drops about 1 spin in 10 and is worth about 0.5 times the bet on average. The Hoard Bonus comes every 25 paid spins and pays about 1.3 times the average bet.
Pearl Respin starts about 1 spin in 61 and pays about 17 times the bet on average.
Free games start about 1 spin in 142.
MINI lands in the Pearl Respin about 1 spin in 650 and in the Hoard Bonus about 1 spin in 2,700. MINOR about 1 in 2,700, MAJOR about 1 in 36,000, and the GRAND (all 15 cells filled) 15 times in 6,000,000 spins, about 1 in 400,000.
A Big win (10 times the bet or more) comes about 1 spin in 46, Huge (25 times) about 1 in 320, Epic (50 times) about 1 in 1,800.
Every spin uses your browser's secure random numbers and nothing remembers how long it has been since a win. A feature is never "due". The Hoard meter is the one thing that counts: it fills by exactly one notch per paid spin, so you always know when its bonus comes.
