Chi Slot
Read the full review of Fu Chi, an Asian themed slot from Real Time Gaming with 5 reels. Find out how and where to play. Chi is a beautifully-designed slot which is played on a unique setup of three reels and five rows, and 27 paylines which pay both ways! This means that there is a total of 54 paylines to play on. Chi is a high volatility game which also comes with a free spins feature and a Stairway to Fortune bonus game.
Pays both ways reels with a twist
The Chi slot machine from Elk Studios isn’t your ordinary 5 reel game, as they’ve taken the whole game and turned it on its head.
Open up the game online, and you’re greeted with what looks like a very oriental setting, with 3 reels and 5 rows of ornate symbols.
What you have though is a 5 reel slot with 3 rows, it’s just that the slot has been turned, so the reels spin horizontally rather than vertically.
Get your head around this, and you’ll understand why the wins payout as they do, rather than getting frustrated thinking that it should have paid for lining up three symbols when actually you only had one on a payline.
Cause yes this game still has paylines, it has 27 in fact which when you factor in the Pays Both Ways aspect of the Chi slot means you have 54 paylines.

It’s quite a simple slot game
Once you know how it pays, and how the reels spin you’re going to want to take a look at the paytable and figure out when the features trigger.
It’s got two base game features as well as free spins and a multiplier trail bonus game for added wins.

If you’ve already opened up the game, you might have noticed two small stone columns that spin at the same time as the reels themselves.
Chi Clothes
These can trigger the Chi and or Mow features, rewarding you with wilds and multipliers.
Chi & Mow
Line up the red stone symbol, and you’ll activate the Chi feature. Here a cute character named Chi will reward you with between 1 and 6 wilds on your spin, hopefully creating a win.

If you trigger this feature during the free spins, the wilds it adds remain sticky.
Mow, on the other hand, adds a multiplier between 2x and 5x to your win in the base game and an increasing multiplier from x2 up to 5x in the free spins.
Features that don’t hit that often but can help keep your casino balance in check.
