Mahjong 88 (Play\"n GO): Review

Play'n GO has once again impressed with a grid-based slot, adding Mahjong 88 to their repertoire, following hits like Reactoonz, Moon Princess, and Viking Runecraft. This time, they've drawn from Mahjong, a Chinese strategic tile game dating back to the Qing dynasty yet transformed it into a chance-based digital experience.

On a robust 8x8 grid, with spins costing anything from 10 cents to 100€, wins occur when clusters of identical symbols align horizontally or vertically. If you're a fan of Play'n GO’s other grid games, Mahjong 88 will feel familiar, featuring synonymous characteristics like a meter that initiates the exciting Fortune Frog when filled. Additionally, the Super Charge provides a thrilling fivefold boost to all wins. As you play, seasons cycle with unique features, adding dynamic excitement to each spin.

Styled to resemble traditional Mahjong, the game portrays a traditional Chinese theme. Tiles appear decorated with designs from the bams and dot suits, along with four unique flowers and seasonal wild symbols. The most rewarding icon is the lotus flower; matching twelve or more yields 500 times your stake . Blank tiles also appear, flipping to reveal secret symbols.

Mahjong 88 (Play\"n GO): Features

Winning combinations contribute to the Fortune Frog meter. Achieving a chain reaction with 33 symbols fills the meter, activating one of four additional bonuses, unless the sequence is broken:

• Croak - selects a random symbol set, allowing them to pay in scattered positions rather than needing to align.
• Spawn - transforms a chosen symbol set into another symbol.
• Tongue - two edges are selected at random, converting symbols in between into different ones.
• Hope - selects a random symbol to destroy and transform adjacent symbols.

Charging the meter beyond 88 tiles initiates the Super Charge , where all winning combinations receive a 5x multiplier. Additionally, season changes infuse Mahjong 88 with inspiration and rewarding wild extras. Random triggers in losing spins offer:

• Spring - introduces up to 12 wild symbols onto the grid at random.
• Summer - adds up to 5 wilds while also clearing surrounding symbols.
• Autumn - creates up to 11 wilds, either clearing or transforming edge symbols.
• Winter - sticks up to 4 wilds, remaining even if they form part of a win.

Each season lasts between 25 to 99 spins, progressing from spring to winter before restarting. Wins contribute to increasing the Season Bonus , rewarded upon activating a new season. It accumulates 10% of each winning amount.

Mahjong 88 (Play\"n GO): Verdict
