Legacy of Dynasties: Slot Overview
Legacy of Dynasties is a 5x3 slot from Play'n GO with 10 paylines and a proper familiar expanding-symbol setup. It goes for an ancient Chinese look, with reels laid out on a scroll and a room full of artefacts in the background. I found it decent enough to look at, and easy to get into, but it didn't exactly grab me straight away.
Wins land left to right from reel one in the base game, while the special expanding symbols can still pay without being adjacent. RTP is 96.28% on the default version, volatility is medium, and the top win is 2,300x. Fair enough for a relaxed session, though that max win is a bit on the low side.
Symbols and Payouts
Regular symbols are the usual J, Q, K and A for the low pays, then frog, peacock, panda, tiger, woman, and an elderly man for the better stuff. Five royals pay 5x, most high symbols top out between 10x and 15x, and the elderly man is the best regular with 100x for five. Not bad, just pretty standard.
Gold coins are the Wild and they sub for all regular symbols, but not the Scatter. A full line of wilds pays 200x, which is easily the best line hit in the base paytable. I quite liked that the symbol set is clear and simple, so you know what’s going on after a couple of spins.

Legacy of Dynasties Slot Bonus Features
Expanding Symbols are the main hook here. Up to 10 regular symbols can be randomly picked to become special expanding symbols, and when they land on at least 3 reels, they expand to fill those reels. The handy bit is they do not need to be on adjacent reels to create wins, which gives the game its own little twist.
Free Spins trigger when scatters land on reels 1, 3, and 5. Before the round starts, the Free Spin Wheel awards 3 to 10, 15, or 20 spins. On every free spin, up to 10 random expanding symbols can be chosen again, so the feature can feel a lot livelier than the base game.
Dynasty Spins sit inside the main bonus and trigger from 2 scatters during free spins. You can get 3 to 8 of them, and they carry over the number of possible expanding symbols from the spin that triggered them. Reviews also mention the expanding symbols lock in on every Dynasty Spin, which is probably the most interesting bit in the whole slot.
Bonus Buy Options
Up to 10 regular symbols can be randomly chosen as expanding symbols. When they land on at least 3 reels, they expand to cover entire reels and can pay even without adjacent reel positions.
Triggered by landing scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5. A Free Spin Wheel awards 3-10, 15, or 20 free spins, with up to 10 random expanding symbols chosen on every spin.
Triggered by 2 scatters during free spins. The feature awards 3-8 extra spins, carries over the number of potential expanding symbols from the triggering spin, and expanding symbols lock in on every spin.
How to Win at Legacy of Dynasties Slot
5 reels, 3 rows and 10 fixed paylines keep things nice and simple. Bets run from 0.10 to 100, and the game works well on mobile too. I’d say that makes it a decent pick if you just want something straightforward without loads of side rules or clutter.
Still, the base game can drag a bit. Because the slot leans so heavily on the expanding-symbol idea and the bonus rounds, regular spins are fine rather than thrilling. If you like medium-volatility games and don’t mind a slower build, you’ll probably get on with it better than players chasing massive pops.
