5 Lions Dance

Inside the game

Captured in the studio's own free demo on 8 September 2026. Nothing below is taken from a press release or another site — it is what the game shows when you open it.

The base gameFive reels of four symbols and 1,024 ways to win: adjacent symbols starting from the leftmost reel pay, with no drawn paylines at all. The SCATTER drum has landed on the second reel, and the bet shown below the reels is $2.00 against a $99,998 demo balance.
Game rules, page 1The paytable at the $2.00 bet shown under the reels: the golden lion pays $40.00 for five, the white and red lions $16.00 each, and the card ranks fall to $4.00 for five tens. At the bottom, the wild, which substitutes for everything except the SCATTER and the LION REEL symbol and lands only on reels 2 to 5.
Game rules, page 2The page given over to the Lion Reel Bonus: three LION REEL symbols on reels 3, 4 and 5 merge reels 1 and 2 into a single fully expanded reel holding nothing but multipliers of the total bet, from 5x to 200x. Below, the free spins — three BONUS symbols award 10 of them, and every lion head that lands during the feature turns into another lion head and pays a second time.
Game rules, page 3The page where the game states its own figures: 1,024 ways to win, wins paid left to right on adjacent reels — the right-hand diagram shows a broken run being rejected — and a theoretical RTP of 96.5%. The same page sets the bet range between $0.20 and $240.00.
How to playThe controls page: the plus and minus buttons change the bet and open the bet menu, the three-bar icon opens the settings, and the double-arrow button cycles through spin speeds — normal, quick, turbo. Clicking the CREDIT and BET labels switches the readout between coins and cash.
Settings menuThe settings menu: the intro screen, the ambient music and the sound effects each toggle separately, and the game history opens from the same list. Underneath, the bet menu, which shows the bet multiplier available in the game and the current total bet in both coins and cash.
AutoplayThe last page of the panel, given over to autoplay: a run starts by clicking the number of spins wanted, and the SKIP SCREENS option skips the feature intro and end screens on its own after a short moment.
Game rules, page 7The same first panel page, read this time for its special symbols: the wild replaces neither the SCATTER nor the LION REEL and lands only on reels 2 to 5, while the SCATTER drum appears on reels 1, 2 and 3 only — three of them trigger the free spins and pay 1x the total bet along the way.
