Slot Summary

Within Light & Wonder's Jewel of the Dragon franchise, Red Phoenix takes the shared gem-triggered Hold and Spin formula into a phoenix-led chapter. Six gem triggers start three spins, and each new gem resets the counter, so the family identity is mechanical as well as visual. The 95.97% RTP and medium volatility accompany a 5x3, 50-line format with separate Free Spins and Hold and Spin routes.
MechanicsNew gems reset the Hold and Spin counter

How It Plays

The base game uses five reels, three rows and 50 fixed paylines. Wild Symbols support ordinary line formation, while Scatter Symbols lead toward the two bonus routes.

Gem symbols carry values into Hold and Spin. Once six qualifying gems appear, the remaining positions respin while landed gems stay fixed on the grid.

Theme & Atmosphere

Red Phoenix gives the Asia and Mythology themes a specific figure rather than treating Dragon imagery as the only subject. Fire connects the character to the bonus presentation.

Crown and Dragon motifs support the wider Jewel of the Dragon identity, while the phoenix distinguishes this chapter from the franchise's tiger, warrior and tortoise titles.

MythologyFireCrownAsiaDragon

Features & Win Potential

Hold and Spin begins with three spins after six qualifying symbols land. Every new symbol that joins the grid remains in place and resets the counter.

Wild and Scatter Symbols serve separate roles: the Wild supports line wins, while Scatters can open Free Spins or contribute to the game's bonus routes.

Bonus & Free Spins

Three Scatter Symbols on the middle three reels award five Free Spins. Special symbols may also appear on the outer reels once the round has started.

The Hold and Spin Bonus Game begins from six qualifying symbols and keeps new arrivals sticky. Filling every grid position awards the Grand Jackpot in the published rules.

Bankroll survival simulator

How long could a bankroll last on Jewel of the Dragon Red Phoenix? We simulate thousands of sessions from this game's published RTP and volatility — the long-run math, not a prediction of your next spin.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (95.97%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (15,874×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
