Very good slot actually!

Well, it is the same as Aloha but Netent thought it would be a good idea to add a few psychological tricks.
1. Randome 3rd Scatter
- when the third scatter lands on a reel to the right of the first 2 scatter and just outside the game window then the monk on the side randomly nudges the missing scatter onto the reels.
- this does not mean it will give the Free Spins more often but is adding more so called "heart stopper" teasers to the game play
2. Random Sticky Re-Spin where it adds symbols
- on Aloha it happens only if you have minimum 9 symbols in a cluster
- on this one it can re-spin if you have 2 clusters of minimum 5 symbols separated by one reel.
- again "heart stopper" teaser as in over 90% it adds no further symbols or in such a way that the two cluster do not connect (the 90% are from my 5K+ test spins)
- again, it doesn't mean that the Random Re-Spin will pay more than on Aloha.
In essence, more psycho-warfare, but similar winning potential as Aloha! Disgraceful! ....Some numbers:
Aloha - Shangri-La
RTP: 96.42% - 96.59%
RTP Sticky Re-Spin: 13.78% - 12.63%
RTP Free Spins: 19.28% - 19.15%
Free Spins Frequency: 0.50% - 0.41%
In the end most slots have a rtp around these numbers and of course it does not suddenly increase to 99 % because features are different or makes freespins easier to trigger because of added features like nudged scatters.
But in my opinion these psycological tricks like you call them ( and what they are, but you could also just call them a feature like in any other slot ) are the reason you enjoy playing a slot. or you dont when they are boring.
For me this one is more entertaining then aloha with the same potential.
