How the Game Plays

Secrets of Shanghai takes you into the heart of China’s most populous city, blending modern urban sights with traditional cultural elements. Developed by Section8 Studio, the game features a 5-reel, 3-row grid set against a backdrop of the iconic Shanghai skyline. Winning combinations are formed by landing matching symbols from left to right across the 25 fixed paylines. The paytable includes landmarks like the Pearl Tower, Yuyuan Garden, and the China Art Museum, alongside character symbols. The game’s logo acts as the Wild, substituting for all regular symbols to help complete wins, and it also offers the highest individual payout for a five-of-a-kind combination.

Free Spins Explained

The main bonus feature is triggered by the Chinese Lamp Scatter symbol. Landing three or more of these anywhere on the reels awards 8 free spins. During this round, the mechanics remain largely similar to the base game, but the potential for extended play is high because the feature can be retriggered. If three or more Scatters appear during a free spin, an additional set of 8 spins is added to the current total.

Special Symbol Payouts

The Scatter symbol is not just a gateway to the bonus round; it also provides instant wins. Landing at least three Scatters anywhere on the grid results in a payout relative to the total stake. Similarly, the Wild symbol is highly valuable on its own, offering significant rewards for landing as few as two on a payline.
