Double Happiness Slot - Aristocrat

Casino players today get to choose from hundreds of video slots which often tends to make us spoiled. However, there are plenty of players who enjoy simple slot games and Double Happiness from Aristocrat is one such game. The slot features extremely simple graphics and audio and a Chinese theme that is well known to slot players worldwide.

Unlike so many slot games developed in the recent years, Double Happiness slot is a 2d game with symbols appearing as simple images on a canvas with a simple background, reminiscent of the Chinese culture. The sounds only happen when the reels are turning, without any background music playing at all.

So is such a simple slot worth playing at all? We had a look and played some spins to find out and here is what we came up with after a while.

10x Multipliers for Double Happiness
Double Happiness is a video slot game with 25 paylines and 5 reels stacked with symbols from the Chinese culture. The main symbols are the wild dragons, which can appear as regular wilds and roaming wilds during the free spins feature, while other symbols include Chinese letters, lanterns, drums and more.

In order to spin the reels, players must bet at least 30 coins in order to get payouts on all 25 of the game’s paylines. During all spins, wild symbols can appear on the reels to substitute for all regular symbols, while scatter symbols can also appear to initiate the free spins. 3, 4 or 5 scatters start up 10, 15 or 25 free spins in addition to paying up to 100x the player’s bet.

During the free spins, two roaming wilds will appear and roam the reels. The wilds substitute for all other symbols and move around, until they come to the same spot. Once both roaming wilds are in the same place, they will substitute for other symbols and multiply any wins they are a part of by a massive 10x multiplier.

The free spins can be re-triggered by finding additional scatter symbols on the reels during the free spins. Scatters can even appear as underlying symbols beneath the roaming wilds, making it that much more likely that the free spins rounds will just keep on going.

The Simplicity of Chinese Culture
The Double Happiness slot manages to show the simple lifestyle that many people in China lead to this day, but also the happiness they manage to maintain through it. The game could hardly be any plainer, but its simplicity does not deter players from playing it. In fact, we had a lot of fun playing the slot and can see ourselves coming back for more.

The biggest drawback of Double Happiness slot is its very low RTP percentage, which stands at just 93.05%, which is lower than almost any slot machine we have seen launched by major slot developers lately. Aristocrat should consider launching a remake of the slot with a slightly higher RTP and we could recommend it as a go to game in that case, but as of right now Double Happiness is a game that probably won’t give you the highest satisfaction for the money you invest in it.
