Drago Jewels Of Fortune Slot Review – Pragmatic Play
Pragmatic Play is one of the most active studios in the casino industry, what I mean by active is releasing so many new slots every month. Some studios stay quiet for weeks and even months until we hear of news and announcements. Pragmatic Play always has something new in the works for the casino community, not just games and even new innovative mechanics. The last game I reviewed by the studio is titled ‘Pyramid King‘, which showed nothing new to us but saved with high variance and max win capped at 20,000x. The studio recently acquired the infamous Megaways license from Big Time Gaming, to use within their own creations. The most recent with the mechanic included is titled ‘Starz Megaways‘, which shows new exciting gameplay from the studio and a max win capped at 10,000x. Next from Pragmatic Play is something very volatile, titled ‘Drago Jewels Of Fortune‘ with a confirmed release date of July 9th across all sites.
Drago Jewels Of Fortune Slot takes us to a fantasy land with dragons and mountains of treasure waiting to be claimed. The background does remind me of the animated film ‘Shrek’ when he tries to save Fiona and ends up waking up the purple dragon trying to protect a room full of treasure. Might just be me. Well, the background is set in a cave, with treasure scattered all around the reel set. The almighty dragon is on the right-hand side of the reel set. The visuals are definitely well made by the studio and the theme is not too saturated in the industry yet.
This game has a setup of 5, 4, 4, 4, 5 reels by 3 rows, this includes 1,600 set pay lines. Drago Jewels Of Fortune Slot is a high variance game with a max win capped at 48,000x and set RTP of 96.5%. You can bet from £0.20 – £100.

There are 11 symbols in total, this includes 5 low paying symbols. These are represented by 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 4 premium symbols, these are represented by light green/light yellow, green, red and purple dragons. In addition to these regular symbols is a wild and crystal bonus scatter. The highest paying symbol is the purple dragon premium, this pays 100x for 5 across a pay line. Wilds substitute for all symbols except the scatter, also only appears on reels 2,3 and 4. The bonus scatter on appears on reels 1 and 5.
Drago Jewels Of Fortune Features
There are two main features within this feature, the first is ‘Dragon Super Spin‘. Triggered by landing a dragon symbol in all 4 corners of the reel set. During the feature spin every new dragon symbol that lands remain in place until the end of the round. One upgrade symbol can land during this feature, which will upgrade the symbol it hits and doubles all pays. This feature ends when no new dragon symbols land.
The second feature is the ‘Free Spins’ feature, triggered by landing a bonus scatter in each corner of the reel set. Before spins begin 3 respins occurs, landing crystal symbols will award more free spins, sticky wilds, mystery symbols or win multipliers which will be active during the free spins feature. Respins reset to 3 when a new crystal symbol lands, respins top when 3 spins occur with no additional crystal symbols. Crystals are in 4 colours to represent the 4 different additional add ons for free spins. These are;
- Green Crystals (Free Spins) – Additonal 1 – 10 Free Spins,
- Red Crystals (Sticky Wilds) – Adds 1 – 5 sticky wilds to random reel positions.
- Purple Crystals (Mystery Symbols) – Adds 5 – 50 mystery symbols to the reels. All that land during a spin will all transform to the same random symbol. (Excludes wilds).

This bonus feature cannot be trtriggered and special reels are in play. Free Spins bonus can be purchased for 100x your bet, excluding UK players.
Conclusion
Overall, I think this is a well made game by Pragmatic Play. With the perfect combination of exciting gameplay and high volatility on offer. The main attraction is the Free Spins feature, thanks to the 4 additions on offer to enhance spins. Also the max win of 48,000x and set RTP of 96.5%.
