Dragon Hero (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Dragon Hero - Slot Overview

I went into Dragon Hero expecting a simple Asian slot, and that is what I got: a 5x4 grid with 20 lines, high volatility, and a max win of 5,000x. Stakes run from 0.20 to 100 per spin. Default RTP sits at 96%, but there are 94.94% and 94.03% versions, so I always check the info panel. The visuals are glossy yet generic, with a ghostly dragon floating behind a moonlit temple. The pull comes from wilds and a Super Wild twist that can snowball.

Dragon Hero Slot Information

Pays follow the genre template. Lows are 10 to A in brush stroke style, paying 1.25x to 2.5x for five of a kind. Premiums are coins, a scroll, an urn, a fish, a frog, and a golden sycee, paying 5x to 40x for five on a line. Lines pay left to right from reel one, and you need three or more in sequence. It’s a clean, 20 payline setup, so reading the table takes seconds.

The yin and yang Wild can land on any reel, substituting for all pays bar the Scatter, and it pays on its own too; five Wilds on a line hit for 60x. The Super Wild uses the dragon’s face and only appears on reels two, three, and four. The Scatter is a big golden dragon emblem and is your ticket to the feature. Symbol art feels familiar, which suits the straightforward paytable.

Super Wilds come loaded with one to three regular Wilds as tiny icons. After a spin resolves, those stored Wilds get thrown onto random grid spots, and more than one can stack on the same position. The symbol mix keeps the base game readable, yet the value lies in how those Wilds interact. When the dragon icons show up together, lines connect in ways the flat pays alone would never reach.

Dragon Hero - Slot Features

Wilds can form their own five-of-a-kind at 60x, which matters once Super Wilds start firing. On reels two to four, each Super Wild holds one, two, or three Wilds and then slings them onto random positions after the spin. Stacking can occur, so a hot screen can see multiple Wilds landing in the same spot. This is the whole trick in the base, and it sets up the feature nicely when several Super Wilds appear together.

Three, four, or five Scatters award six, eight, or ten bonus wheels. Each wheel gives one to three spins, for a total between six and thirty. In free spins, any Super Wild that lands sticks until the end and throws its Wilds after every spin. Scatters add half a Wild to a random Super Wild; once a full one is collected, that Super Wild sends an extra Wild each time. No retrigger. The bonus buy costs 100x, with 96.13% shown.

Dragon Hero - Slot Verdict

After a few hundred spins, the base felt stop‑start, with streaks of dead spins broken by the odd splash of Wilds. The mood flips in the bonus when sticky Super Wilds stack. I’ve had rounds where two or three stayed put, flinging a stream of Wilds and creating repeat wins. That loop is the sweet spot. I didn’t hit the 5,000x cap in testing, but tidy outcomes landed when the screens got crowded.

Theme work is slick yet safe, and I’ve seen these symbols many times, but the Super Wild idea is lively enough to carry sessions. It’s a high‑variance ride, so I size stakes with care. I always check the RTP variant before I spin, as the lower settings drag. If you like Asian‑style slots with wild‑driven bonuses and a clear 20‑line build, Dragon Hero does the job and can throw a cracking bonus now and then.
