PEARL OF THE ORIENT (ISOFTBET): CASINOBLOKE’S VERDICT

Pearl of the Orient is a decent video slot that boasts simple but quality visuals and a fitting soundtrack. The 2018 release will not attract plenty of action junkies, that’s for sure because it offers only the Free Spins feature. On the other hand, freebies come with expanding Wilds that upgrade symbols and may help you land massive wins.

The expanding Wild is also available during the base game, but here we don’t have symbol upgrades. In our humble opinion, there are more than enough video slots with a similar topic, but it seems that this is what gamers across the globe want, so the iSoftBet title will be a neat addition to the Chinese slots portfolio.
