Slot Summary

Released in 2018, Jade Butterfly gives the player an unusual choice after a base spin: pay to respin one selected reel while the others remain fixed. Pragmatic Play places that decision inside a 1024-way, medium-volatility slot with a 96.47% RTP. Free Spins then replace repeated paid choices with a fixed x3 Multiplier and broader Wild Symbol availability.
MechanicsOne reel respins while four remain fixed

How It Plays

The base game pays across 1024 ways, but its defining decision comes afterward. An eligible reel can be spun again while the remaining four reels stay fixed.

Each paid Respin uses a displayed price calculated from the current arrangement and its potential to form another win. Changing the bet forfeits the available Respin state.

Theme & Atmosphere

Asia, Butterfly, Flowers and Nature themes give Jade Butterfly a calmer setting than its paid-respin decisions might suggest, with the butterfly also serving as the Wild Symbol.

The natural imagery keeps the screen readable while the Action & Adventure label comes through mechanically, since the player can intervene after a spin instead of only waiting.

Features & Win Potential

Respins operate one reel at a time and leave the other reels fixed. Reels that cannot help create a new winning combination are not eligible.

The Wild Symbol substitutes for regular symbols, while Scatter Symbols lead to Free Spins. Wild availability expands to another reel during the feature.

Bonus & Free Spins

Three or more Scatter Symbols trigger 13 Free Spins. Every winning combination in the round receives a fixed x3 Multiplier.

Landing three or more Scatter Symbols during the round adds another 13 Free Spins. Retriggers are not capped by the published game rules.

Bankroll survival simulator

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

Volatility tier: Medium

Running simulation…
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 (96.47%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (636×).

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.
