Win Sum Dim Sum

Review

The Win Sum Dim Sum online pokie from Microgaming has a Chinese Restaurant/Chinese Cuisine theme with 5 reels and just 9 winning paylines and you have the option of being able to play on this game either in the real money mode or in the free play demo mode. When this game first arrived in casinos it was launched simultaneously across multiple platforms which are compatible with most modern computing devices.

In other words, desktop and laptop users can enjoy playing on this game from within a download client or instantly across a non-downloadable Flash casino platform. You can also play on this game using a smartphone or tablet device and Mac users can also play on this game when playing instantly in their web browser.

Using the responsive player controls which are located beneath the reels allows you to increase and decrease your stake. For example when you set your coin size to just 0.01 and the number of coins to 1/5, it means that low rollers can place a bet from as little as 0.09 coins per spin. High rollers who would prefer to spend a lot more per spin can increase these two values up to a maximum of 0.50 (coin size) and 5/5 (coins) and this will allow you to spend up to 22.50 coins per spin. This is based on playing each spin with the recommended 9 paylines active.

The main special symbols on this game include the Bamboo Steamer Symbols and also the Teapot Symbols. The Bamboo Steamer (also the game’s logo) is the Wild Symbol and the Teapot Symbol is the Scatter Symbol. The top paying symbols on the reels are the Bamboo Steamer Wild Symbols and the only symbols that these ones do not have the ability to substitute are the Scatter Symbols. Some of the other regular symbols that you will see on the reels include the numbers and letters from 10 through to Ace and also and several delicious looking bites of Chinese food.

The Wild Symbol can also expand in both directions (upwards and downwards) to fill entire reels from top to bottom and these will occasionally generate additional line wins. During normal play this Expanding Wild Symbol can only ever show up on reel 3 (the centre reel) and it will also substitute all of the symbols on the reels apart from the Scatter Symbols. During the Free Spins Bonus Round, these Expanding Wild Symbols can show up on reels 2, 3 and 4 (all three of the centre reels), not just on reel 3.

The main Bonus Round on this game is a Free Spins Bonus Round and this will instantly trigger when three or more of the Teapot Scatter Symbols land anywhere in view. When this happens a guaranteed prize of 15 Free Spins will be awarded. Unfortunately the line wins won’t be boosted by a Prize Multiplier during the Free Spins Bonus Round, but the additional Expanding Wild Symbols that have been added to those centre reels can help generate some massive wins, so you don’t really miss the Multiplier. There are no other in-play features or second screen bonus rounds for you to win prizes from on this game.

The Win Sum Dim Sum online pokie from Microgaming is one of those games that has a universal game theme which should appeal to a wide audience. It doesn’t seem to take forever for the Free Spins Bonus Round to trigger and the wins during this bonus round can be massive when all three centre reels are filled with Expanding Wild Symbols. If you live in Australia there are plenty of Microgaming powered casinos that now have this game available and it is a fun online pokie that we can definitely recommend checking out when you get a chance.
