Fat Panda Review

We’re guessing someone over at Pragmatic Play are fans of the Kung Fu Panda movie franchise, as Fat Panda clearly seems inspired by those hilarious movies. It’s not inspired by Fat Rabbit from Push Gaming, however, just to get that out of the way from the get-go. The 5x3 grid comes with a top reel with modifier symbols, and the reels are placed in the middle of a field with classic Chinese architecture on display in the background.

The soundtrack is typical for Asian slots as well, and wilds play a central part in this game. As does the top sliding reel, which provides wilds or expands existing wilds. It can also add multipliers up to x20 to existing wilds, and these multiply together for larger payouts. All wilds are sticky during the bonus round, and this is where you’re most likely to close in on the 20,000x potential. Fat Panda is a good game overall, but it’s a bit too generic to make a lasting impression.

Fat Panda Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 1 and 5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the Panda Wild symbol steps in for any pay symbol to help complete and/or improve line wins.

The wild also pays the same as the top-tier sycees symbol, should you land 3 to 5 wilds on the same payline.

The top horizontal reel slides in blanks and/or modifier symbols per spin, and here is an overview of what you can expect:

  • Add Wild - places a wild symbol in a random position below.
  • Expand Wild - turns any wild on the reel below into a full reel wild for the current spin.
  • Add Wild Multiplier - adds a multiplier value of x2 to x10 to all wilds on the reel below.
  • Add Multiplier To All Wilds - adds a multiplier value of x2 to x20 to all wilds in view.

The multiplier wilds will boost all line wins they partake in, and the wild multipliers are multiplied together if more than one is part of the same win.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 3, 4, or 5 scatters in view, and this gives you 10, 12, or 15 free spins, respectively. All wilds that appear in the bonus round become sticky for the duration of the feature, and the Top Reel slides in the modifier symbols during the free spins round as well. You can land an Additional Scatter symbol, and this gives you 1 to 10 extra spins.

The Bonus Buy menu is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. It comes with 2 options. You can purchase the regular bonus round for 70x your stake, or the Super versions for 300x your stake.

The Super Bonus Round comes with 5 guaranteed sticky wilds from the very first spin. The regular bonus round has an organic hit rate of 1 in 183 spins.

You get to see a few wins in the base game, but nothing out of the ordinary. We then purchase the Super Bonus Round, and it triggers right after the 1-minute mark. The feature plays out for the remainder of the 2:51-minute highlights video, and you can see for yourself how we fared by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

There is no doubt that Fat Panda is a well-crafted game, but it still feels like a fast-food meal if you catch our drift. Pragmatic Play is known for such releases, and their busy schedule is probably the reason. We expected some kind of Fat Rabbit copycat to be honest, but this is far from the case. The Kung Fu Panda charm is noticeable, but the whole thing feels a bit too slick and soulless. The visuals are solid as usual, and Pragmatic Play knows how to create decent Asian-themed slots.

The base game can be a bit too barebones between the modifiers, and they don’t trigger all that often to be honest.

They don’t always make a dent when they do trigger either, but getting multiplier wilds up to x20 can, of course, do serious damage on a good day. It helps when the wilds are sticky in the bonus round, and it’s only too bad the super version cannot be triggered organically. The 20,000x potential is solid, and way above what you normally get from Pragmatic, and it comes with a 1 in 11,990,400 spins hit rate.

Pros

  • 4 unique top reel wild modifiers
  • FS w/ sticky wilds that can be modified
  • Win up to 20,000x your stake

Cons

  • Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
