The Tiger Warrior Slot by Pragmatic Play

Same architecture that powered Wolf Gold - Giant Symbol free spins on one side, a Money Respin with three fixed jackpot tiers on the other. The warrior himself is the Wild, and his paytable sits equal to the white tiger at 500x per line for five of a kind. A dark tiger follows at 400x, a golden tiger at 300x, a Taoist gourd at 200x, and then all four card ranks pay an identical 50x. That flat bottom end means roughly half the paytable is cosmetic variation with no mathematical difference between hitting a line of Aces or a line of Jacks.

Three Scatters across reels 1, 3, and 5 award 5 free spins. During the round, the three middle reels lock together and display a single oversized symbol covering a 3x3 block. When that block lands a premium, it fills nine positions at once and connects across multiple paylines if reels 1 and 5 cooperate. Retriggers add 3 spins each with no cap. The reel strips change for the bonus, so the symbol weighting you see in the base game doesn't apply here.

Six or more Money symbols in one spin open the respin round. Everything clears except the triggering coins, which lock in place. You get 3 respins, and each new coin resets the counter. Individual coin values range from 1x your line bet up to 30x, with Mini (30x total bet) and Major (100x total bet) as special labels that appear on the coins themselves. Fill all 15 grid positions and the Mega jackpot pays 1,000x total bet on top of whatever the coins collected individually. That full-grid scenario is where the advertised max win ceiling lives.

Stone-carved reels against a misty mountain pass, three tiger variants drawn from traditional Chinese military symbolism rather than the festive red-and-gold look of most Lunar New Year slots. No Buy Bonus, no Ante Bet, no Gamble. The entire feature set was already four games deep by the time this one released, and it didn't get a fifth variation after.
