About

Although it might sound like it’s based on electricity, Lights is actually a gentle oriental-themed slot that uses fireflies as its main feature. A relaxing soundtrack of piano music with Far Eastern overtones plays as you sit by a lakeside at dusk, watching the sun set in the distance, and the water gently rippling in the breeze.

Other sources of light that can help you win big in the game include the paper lantern symbols which come in five different colours and can pay out up to one thousand times your bet.

This online slot comes with two unique special features. The first is Floating Wilds and it’s triggered at the start of every spin. As swarms of fireflies (or Mother Nature’s fairy lights, as we like to call them) land on random areas of the reel set, they create wild symbols. And, when the Yin and Yang scatter activates the Free Spins Bonus where you can claim up to thirty free games, you benefit from even more Floating Wild symbols.

Why we love it

The Lights slot possesses Zen-like qualities that fans of oriental slots are bound to find attractive. The wonderful scenery also helps to put you in a serene mood while the firefly clusters that appear on each spin, leave you in awe.

It’s also great to see NetEnt producing innovative special features that help to make the game stand out from other slots of similar genres.

• Load the paytable where you can see how much each symbol pays, and how the bonus features work with a click on the ‘I’ button.

FLOATING WILDS

Never mind regular wilds; this game makes use of a much better feature called Floating Wilds.

In the same way that fireflies are drawn to darkened gardens and lakes during twilight to attract mates or prey, the fireflies in this slot are compelled to crowd the reels at the start of every spin.

Press the Spin button, and you’ll see them make their way across the reels until they find a position (or multiple positions) to settle on, and wherever they land, they leave behind a Floating Wild symbol which is placed on top of the existing symbol. I.e. a K or a Lantern can become a Floating Wild.

Because each fresh spin awards two, three or four Floating Wilds, there’s an increased likelihood of you winning prizes throughout your playing session. Plus, Floating Wild symbols act like regular wilds in that they can substitute for every other symbol except scatters to help create more winning combinations.

SCATTER SYMBOL

The second special symbol in the Lights online slot is the red-and-gold Yin and Yang icon, which is a popular Chinese symbol that reflects two opposite yet complementary energies. In the case of this game, the scatter can be used to trigger the bonus feature.

FREE GAMES FEATURE

Three, four or five Yin and Yang symbols reward you with ten, twenty or thirty free games respectively, and the same number of scatters give you additional free spins once the bonus in underway.

Although you only get between two and four Floating Wilds on each spin in the main game, in the Free Games Feature, you get at least three and as many as six.
