They tie in with the Year of the…

Add whichever animal happens to be the right one for that year. Some of the animals you’ll meet include the dog, the rat, the dragon, and the monkey. So, each year brings something different in a 12-year cycle. That’s plenty to keep lots of the game providers ready with ideas!

They’re colorful and have plenty of Oriental detail

If you love traveling around the world while you’re playing slot games, this is the perfect opportunity to do just that. The slots use lots of Chinese detailing to tie in with the theme, often featuring the other animals as back-up symbols. The relevant animal for that year is usually a wild symbol or other special icon to search for. However, in all cases, the games look sensational and create a different spin on the Chinese New Year theme.

You can usually find at least one game from each developer

Most software developers create games based on the most popular themes around – ones they know players are going to love. We can say that of the Chinese New Year theme for sure, hence why we usually manage to find at least one in the collection each developer offers. There are a few exceptions, but then other developers have this on their roster of releases for each year.
