Several of the main characters found their way to the reels – Baoyu, Daiyu, Baochai and Nuwa (we suppose) – all splendidly drawn. Named after the Grand View Garden (literal translation of Da Guan Yuan), this 50 narrow paylines slot uses the amazing landscaped interior from most of the book’s episodes as various Wilds symbols.
It is a modest yet elegantly executed video slot, which comes with Low Volatility (small but frequent payoffs are to be expected), sufficient RTP of 96.19%, and a meagre, even for this type of variance max winning prospect of 800x the total bet. This can be classified as a skimpy endowment, but the betting space is certainly wide – up to 250 CAD.
Stacked symbols provide many win opportunities in the base game (although on the smallest side). The hit rate of 32% is acceptable, but the minimum bet of 50 cents can be considered a hurdle too high to leap over by the low-rollers. Generally, despite the reduced risk, the game is not suited for the players on a tight budget nor the bonus hunters.
Unlike the massive garden with many exuberant zones (in every season) giving the slot name, the Da Guan Yuan game producers installed just 1 Bonus with 1 special area – the Mega Wild option in the Free Spins.
(NB: All data mentioned in this review is derived from the collection of our internal test runs in different casinos with various stakes. The necessity of presenting our own stats comes from the lack of information from the developer self.)
In conclusion, we recommend the Da Guan Yuan online slot for playing with real deposits due to the multiple positive stats (mentioned above). Players who are satisfied with decent wins seem to enjoy the game the most. If your wallet allows, you can raise the bar a bit (up to 15 CAD), don’t get greedy and end your game on time.

- Wilds – The single garden picture (in green) is the Wild element in the game. It is a non-value symbol that appears on all but reel 1 and replaces the regular symbols to create/improve pay combinations.
- Scatters & Free Spins – The silver statue is the Scatter. Landing 3/4/5OAK in 1 spin will deliver 30x/10x/1x the bet payout and will initiate a Bonus from 15/20/25 FS, respectively. During the Bonus, there is a big chance for landing connected Wilds forming 3 types of Mega Wild symbols on reels 2/3, 2/3/4, and 2/3/4/5.
