Ancients Blessing Review
Red Tiger has had its fair share of success with dragon themed titles before, not least with the latest addition to the Dragon’s Fire series, Dragon's Fire Megaways. In Ancients’ Blessing however, dragons are mixed with other mythological animal creatures, although the alpha symbol is the red dragon worth 2.5x your stake for 5 on a payline.
Low symbol values combined with 30 win ways means that multiplier action is required to get anywhere close to the 2,175x max win potential. You get this each time you land consecutive premium symbol wins however, and a random low-value symbol removal feature can save the day when you least expect it. The biggest drawback here is the typical Red Tiger math model quirkiness, as the visual presentation and atmosphere is quite impressive.

You will get no help from any wild symbols in this game, but the Ancient Supremacy feature can trigger at any time. You will then see all low-value royal symbols destroyed and removed from the reels. The Cascading Reels feature then brings in a fresh batch of only premium symbols to fill the gaps. This can prolong your winning streak, and the Cascading Wins go on as long as you keep landing new winning combos.

Whenever you win with premium symbols you trigger the Locked Ancients feature.
The winning symbols become sticky for the next paid spin (you don’t get a free respin, in other words), and the feature continues if you improve upon the winning combo or form a new one. All 5 of the character premium symbols can become sticky this way, but there’s more.Each new symbol or win line that becomes sticky increases the progressive win multiplier with +1. It starts at 1x, and it can potentially increase until you’ve filled the entire grid with nothing but sticky symbols. This means that a multiplier up to and above 20x is possible, making this feature somewhat of a replacement for a more traditional bonus round.
The 200 Spins Ancients’ Blessing Slot Experience
It’s always fun to try games where the features deviate from the norm, and that is certainly the case with this Red Tiger creation. It’s exciting to see how much you can push up the multiplier during Locked Ancients, and we had our fair share of attempts in our test session.
Check it all out in the brief and edited highlights video below.Review Summary
Red Tiger usually nails the visual presentation, and Ancients’ Blessing is no exception. However, they also usually come up with offbeat math models, and max win potentials that don’t quite fit the bill. Combined with highly volatile gameplay, we expect a bigger carrot than 2,175x, simple as that. Not least since you have to pay for each spin in what amounts to the game’s “bonus round”.
Locking in premium winning symbols while building up a progressive multiplier can be a thrill ride for sure, but most of the time you don’t get very far. With no real bonus round to look forward to, it’s hard to keep motivation up for a longer session. It doesn’t help that the highest default RTP of 95.72 % is still below average, and that you have to spend time looking for it because Red Tiger keeps insisting on customizable RTP ranges.
Pros
- Excellent visual presentation
- Random low-value symbol removal
- Premium symbol sticky win multiplier
Cons
- High volatility combined with mediocre max win
- Below average RTP (and RTP ranges)
