Happy Riches Slot Review (NetEnt)

NetEnt has once again decided to teleport players to the orient with the brand new Happy Riches. The slots title, theme, as well as its first impression upon launch, are luring for sure, but what’s under the hood is anything but original. Wondering why we just said that? Well, Happy Riches is a mere skin remake of the Flowers™ Slot. Lest we forget, this is the same slot that they cloned for the release of Flowers™ Christmas Edition.

What can possibly drive NetEnt to slap the same math model and features on our faces three good times while we all know very well that they got all the necessary resources to build something from scratch? Is it indolence, downright obsession with what they created back in the day, or something else? Time to find out!

Rules

Happy Riches is a slot designed to play out on a simple 5X3 grid with 30 fixed paylines. Unsurprisingly, this simplicity in structure and layout also extends to its coin-based win evaluation algorithm, where the only rule to take note of is: the higher the bet level and coin value you choose, the greater the wins you will garner. To elaborate more on that, payouts are arrived at by multiplying the rewards displayed on the paytable with the selected bet level. Coin values, on the other hand, are there to help you convert your coin win into real cash in addition to helping you select a higher or lower stake, just like the bet level selector. Together, the coin and level selector allow the player to select bet of up to €70/150 coins before getting the reels to spin using the huge spin button or the auto-spin setting.

On to the paytable, the wacky flower faces from this slot’s predecessors have been replaced with a different selection of symbols. There is a high-pay set made of 5 Asian-themed symbols, including a Maneki-Neko (translates to the beckoning cat or the Chinese lucky cat) and an Asian Arowana a.k.a dragon fish, which can show up as doubles to dish out rewards of up to 2000 coins on bet level 1. The blackjack icons A, K, Q, & J have, however, been retained on the weaker side of the paytable with rewards of up to 200 coins on the same bet level.

Paying Wilds

As before, the wild is the highest paying symbol with rewards of up to 5000 coins, only that it is represented by an image of a Chinese Dragon Dance costume this time.

Bonus Round

Golden ingots step in for the smiling bundles of clouds to act as the scatter. They can also show up as double symbols, and 4 of them appearing on the grid at the same time during the base game will activate a 10 free spins bonus round.

During free spins, there are a couple of boosting extras you should look out for. The first is that everything you win here is subjected to an X3 multiplier. Second, landing 4, 5, 6, 7, & 8 Free Spins Symbols before the end of this session unlocks 10, 15, 20, 25, & 30 additional free spins respectively. Third and final, landing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, & 8 Free Spins Symbols also awards an instant 2X, 2X, 2X, 2X, 4X, and 10X your bet respectively. 

Why this Math Model?

Simply put, the reason why NetEnt keeps coming back to this math model are the stats behind it. A decent Return to Player percentage is combined with an unusually high hit rate of 44.69% to give the player very huge chances of landing a winner on every spin. Just think about it… clones are cheaper to churn out, and if they can make the player happy, return-wise, it’s a win-win for them.

All up, Happy Rich is a slot that will appeal to those looking for a generous Asian-themed slot. The bonus sessions can turn out to be cash bonanzas, not to mention that the high hit rate ensures that your bankroll doesn’t run out before gaining entry.
