Jasmine Dreams (Pragmatic Play) Slot Review

Jasmine Dreams: Slot Overview

Did you ever want to dive into the world of One Thousand and One Nights? There are lots of online slot games out there that tackle the famous persian-arabian theme, but the popularity has gone down quite a lot. Pragmatic Play chose this theme for another one of their slot games, namely Jasmine Dreams.

Jasmine Dreams is played on 5 reels with 3 rows and 20 set paylines. The game is rated a high volatility with 5 out of 5 points by Pragmatic Play themselves. Bet sizes range from 0.20€ to 100€ (or equivalent), but may vary depending on where you play.

Jasmine Dreams features 8 different winning symbols, with 4 of them being on the lower end and the other 4 on the higher end. As always, let’s take a look at the lower tier symbols. Here we will find the classic winning symbols from J to A, sharing similar payouts. The symbols are decorated with little golden tendrils. For J’s and Q’s you will get 2-times your bet size for a full line. K’s and A’s are clocking in at 5-times your bet size already.

Now we are going to take a look at the higher tier symbols. These are designed more fitting to the theme. At first we have the Curved Sword as well as the Ruby Ring, both clocking in at 10-times your bet size per full line. Second-to-last is the Treasure Chest for 20-times your bet size. And last but not least is the Persian Prince, at least we think that it’s a prince, coming in at 30-times your bet size per full line.

Jasmine Dreams: Special Symbols and Stats

Of course Jasmine Dreams also comes with a set of Special symbols.

The first Special symbol we have is the Scatter symbol, portrayed by an ancient persian temple. These can land on any reel and if you manage to land 3 or more Scatter symbols in the same spin you will be rewarded with Free Spins. But that’s not all, Scatter symbols also have a payout. 3 Scatter symbols will give you 2-times your bet size. 4 Scatter symbols will award you with 5-times your bet size and 5 symbols will grant you 20-times your bet size.

The second Special symbol is the Wild symbol, and this one is really special. Wild is displayed by the Persian Princess and the label „WILD“. Wild symbols can cover up to 3 positions on the reel and can only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4. They will substitute for any winning symbols except Scatter symbols. Wild symbols play a crucial role in winning big on Jasmine Dreams.

As always we’ll also take a look at the stats of Jasmine Dreams. The game comes with a base RTP of 96.48%, very solid. The max win potential of Jasmine Dreams is capped at „only“ 2,500-times your bet size, so round about half of what we’re used from Pragmatic Play games. The chances of hitting the max win are interesting, on average you will see a max win every 3,333,333 spins. Not the best chances, obviously. A win occurs round about every 3 spins and on average you will get Free Spins every 125 spins. These numbers are just an average, so no guarantee for anything.

Jasmine Dreams: Feature Overview

Jasmine Dreams does not have a lot to offer, but nonetheless we will try to explain it in detail to you.

• Free Spins Feature

The Free Spins Feature is the only real Feature Jasmine Dreams has to offer. You can enter the Free Spins Feature by hitting 3 or more Scatter symbols in the same spin. Upon doing that, you will be rewarded with 6 Free Spins, no matter the amount of Scatters you triggered with. The Free Spins Feature is similar to the base game with one vital difference. You see, when landing Wild symbols fully on a reel, you will be granted a multiplier. The multiplier increases depending on how many reels are covered with Wild symbols. 1 reels will grant you an x2 Multiplier, 2 reels with an x3 multiplier and 3 reels with an x4 multiplier. The multiplier is applied to ALL wins. But we’re not done yet. Wild symbols also nudge if they aren’t fully visable on the screen. So if a Wild symbol is only partially on the screen, a respin is granted. The Wild symbol will go up or down one position, depending on the direction it needs to go in order to fill up the reel. Respins are granted as long as there is a partial Wild on the screen. Once all visible Wild symbols cover the reel, Respins will stop and Free Spins are used. Each Respin will of course be eligible for payouts. Retriggering the Feature is not possible. The Feature ends once every spin has been used or the max win potential of 2,500-times your bet size has been reached.

Jasmine Dreams: Conclusion

Pragmatic Play has tried to bring the popularity of the arabian-persian theme back. Did they manage to do it? Unfortunately, not really. As with most of their games, Pragmatic Play did a nice job with the overall design and feeling. When playing Jasmine Dreams you will get great background music, beautifully designed winning symbols and an overall splendid athmosphere.

But the design doesn’t outweigh the fact that Jasmine Dreams is pretty boring. The only real feature you have is the Free Spins Feature and nothing besides it. The base game is lacking another feature to make it a bit more exciting. There is literally nothing happening in the base game. Pragmatic Play were probably aware of that, that’s why you will notice that the reels are spinning really fast. There’s no need to make them spin any slower because there’s nothing to miss anyway.

Even the Free Spins Feature has no innovation either. Nudging Wild symbols is nothing new and the volatility is way too high for a game that has a max win potential of 2,500-times. To win big at Jasmine Dreams you need to get all 3 of the Wild reels, and even then there’s no guarantee that your spin is going to be great.

In the end, Jasmine Dreams is a mediocre game. It can have its thrilling and exciting moments, but these are rare and only ever happen in the Free Spins Feature. The overall design of the game gives it a few more plus points. This concludes our online slot review about Jasmine Dreams. We hope that we answered all of your questions without leaving anything open.
