The Caishen’s Cash slot game can be found at casinos offering Pragmatic Play software. Pragmatic Play are one of the newer slots game developers on the market but their products are polished and professional in feel and operation. As a standard Pragmatic Play do publish the RTP/House Edge information for their slots games within their game help file. For a provider that are not currently licensed within the UK market and therefore are under no obligation to publish these figures this is a significantly progressive move. The House Edge for Caishen’s Cash is 3.5%.
Caishen’s Cash is a 5 reel game that is 3 symbols high. Instead of using paylines, you form winning combinations, involving 3 matching symbols across adjacent reels, starting from the left-most reel. There are 243 combinations in total.
Special Symbols
Wild – The Wild symbol will substitute for all symbols and is only available on reels 2, 3 and 4. Whenever a Wild symbol appears in the base game it can randomly trigger the jackpot bonus game.
Caishen – The “Caishen” symbol is the game’s most valuable. 3 “Caishen” symbols as part of a winning combination will pay out 1.2 times the bet. 4 “Caishen” symbols as pert of a winning combination will pay out twice the bet and 5 “Caishen” symbols as part of a winning combination will pay out 6 times the bet.
Money Symbol – The “Money Symbol” is a gold coin with a hole in the middle. With each spin the “Money Symbol” will take on a random value from a predefined set. When 6 or more of them hit the reels you will trigger a choice between the Money Respin feature and the Free Spins feature.
Bonus Features
Bonus Game – As already mentioned the Bonus Game is triggered at random when a Wild symbol hits the reels. The Bonus Game is a click and reveal game where you flip “Money Symbols”. If you can match 3 “Money Symbols” you will win one of the game’s jackpots. There is the “Mini Jackpot”, which is 25 times the bet; the “Minor Jackpot”, which is 50 times the bet; the “Major Jackpot”, which is 100 times the bet; and the “Grand Jackpot” which is 1000 times the bet.
Free Spins – During the Free Spins feature only the high paying symbols will be present on the reels. “Money Symbols” will also be present but in this feature they become wild and take on the value that they were given when they triggered the feature. They act as a normal Wild, substituting for all symbols. Free Spins cannot be re-triggered.
Money Respin Feature – This feature begins once the triggering bet has been paid out. When this happens all symbols on the reels when the feature was triggered will disappear, except the “Money Symbols”. You will be given 6 Respins in total and during them all normal symbols will disappear only to be replaced by different coloured “Money Symbols”. Each “Green Money Symbol” is worth the total amount of all the triggering “Money Symbols”, whilst each “Blue Money Symbol” is worth half the amount of all the triggering “Money Symbols”. Green and Blue “Money Symbols” will remain in place during the spins. Additional spins can be awarded at random and once all the respin are finished all the “Money Symbols” will have their amounts added together to create a cash win.
