Pays both ways reels with a twist

The Chi slot machine from Elk Studios isn’t your ordinary 5 reel game, as they’ve taken the whole game and turned it on its head.

Open up the game online, and you’re greeted with what looks like a very oriental setting, with 3 reels and 5 rows of ornate symbols.

What you have though is a 5 reel slot with 3 rows, it’s just that the slot has been turned, so the reels spin horizontally rather than vertically.

Get your head around this, and you’ll understand why the wins payout as they do, rather than getting frustrated thinking that it should have paid for lining up three symbols when actually you only had one on a payline.

Cause yes this game still has paylines, it has 27 in fact which when you factor in the Pays Both Ways aspect of the Chi slot means you have 54 paylines.

Confused yet?

It’s quite a simple slot game

Once you know how it pays, and how the reels spin you’re going to want to take a look at the paytable and figure out when the features trigger.

It’s got two base game features as well as free spins and a multiplier trail bonus game for added wins.

If you’ve already opened up the game, you might have noticed two small stone columns that spin at the same time as the reels themselves.

These can trigger the Chi and or Mow features, rewarding you with wilds and multipliers.

Chi & Mow

Line up the red stone symbol, and you’ll activate the Chi feature. Here a cute character named Chi will reward you with between 1 and 6 wilds on your spin, hopefully creating a win.

If you trigger this feature during the free spins, the wilds it adds remain sticky.

Mow, on the other hand, adds a multiplier between 2x and 5x to your win in the base game and an increasing multiplier from x2 up to 5x in the free spins.

Features that don’t hit that often but can help keep your casino balance in check.

How to trigger the Stairway to Fortune

Another feature you can expect to trigger during your base game spins by finding 3 bonus symbols is the Stairway to Fortune bonus.

Here you get taken to a magical stairway in the clouds lined with multipliers from x8 up to x10,000.

Yes, there are some big numbers here, bigger than you’ll find in the Rainbow Riches slot multiplier trail for sure.

When you’re in the bonus game, Chi will randomly draw a number from 1 to 6 or potentially select Collect.

If it’s a number, you move that many clouds up the trail otherwise you end the game with the multiplier your on and previous multipliers you’ve collected on the way.

A feature that has the potential to pay out huge amounts of real cash, but one that doesn’t always show up.

Chi Free Spins

Find three or more of the Free Spins bonus symbols on a single spin, and you’ll trigger, you guessed it some free games.

Here you essentially get some free bets where if the Chi feature is triggered get sticky wilds, or if the Mow feature is triggered increasing multipliers.

It’s a game that much like the Stairway to Fortune bonus doesn’t show up regularly but has the potential to pay big.

Review Conclusion: Chi Slot Online

Available to play as the Chi mobile slot on phone, tablet, and online, there are multiple ways to win and ways to have some fun with this game.

The Stairway to Fortune bonus can undoubtedly get your blood flowing, especially if you make it through the clouds to the board.

The free spins also offer up some exciting spins too.

Overall with a 0.20 min bet, 20.00 maximum bet, but some outstanding number possible this is one of the Elk Studios slot machines, that will need patience and a decent budget to find the riches within.

Bet patient and the big wins are there, you’ve just got to hope for a little luck in this high variance game.
