Playing China River
As Bally slots go, China River is very standard in the setup. The 30 win-lines are over 5 reels with 3 rows of symbols and are not changeable by the user. Real money bets per line are flexible and start at just 1c per spin, you can choose auto-play for up to 25 spins each time.
The Chinese writing character is wild in this game, and also carries the biggest win for the regular symbols. 5 of these get you 25x your stake (in addition to making up wins with the other regular symbols). Bally slots tend to pay the bigger prizes by combining lots of wins together with wilds and stacked symbols – which does make their pay-tables look like the prizes are small.
- China Mystery slot machine can easily be mistaken for the China Shores slot machine considering the massive similarity it shares with the game from the screen alignment to some of the characters that grace the screen. This similarity is quite understandable considering the sets are crafted by the same online gaming software company – Konami.

Animation kicks up a gear when the free spins bonus starts. You will see a small flurry of cherry blossom falling on the right of the screen. Before you know it, the flurry has turned into a cascade and soon enough the entire screen has a ‘pink out’. When the petals clear you are taken to reels with a blue background (plus the obligatory counters for remaining spins and total won).

The China River, a slot that has been rated among the popular land based games for a long time, is now a big hit with online players. Bally Technologies has taken a game with a long history and developed it as a part of their range of online slots.
I did notice a lot more stacked symbols during the free spins bonus round, though found nothing on this in the slot manual – so it could have just been by chance. Your spins will cycle through quickly, and your total will be counted up for you at the top of the screen.
