Dragonfate’s Favor Slot Review

Dragonfate's Favor Slot Overview

Dragonfate's Favor from Play'n GO drops you into a fantasy land run by quirky, fire-breathing dragons rather than menacing beasts. Goldar, the alpha dragon, leads the show and can guide you towards wins up to 30,000x the bet. Under the hood it uses a proven setup from an earlier hit, with walking wilds, respins and three pickable free spin modes, so the gameplay feels very familiar if you know the studio's back catalogue.

The slot runs on a 6x4 layout with 4,096 ways to win, paying from left to right whenever you connect at least three matching symbols on consecutive reels. Stakes range from 0.10 to 100 per spin, suiting lower rollers and more serious players alike. Volatility sits at a medium level, rated 6 out of 10, and there is no ante bet or feature buy, so all the action comes organically.

From my sessions, Dragonfate's Favor plays like a steady grinder punctuated by short bursts of chaos when Goldar shows up. The base game can feel a bit samey while you wait for that stacked wild or the scatters, but the mechanics are solid. Once the dragon stomps in or the bonus picker appears, the slot wakes up and you can feel that old-school Play'n GO hit potential bubbling under the surface.

Dragonfate's Favor Slot Information

Visually, Dragonfate's Favor paints a peaceful rural valley framed by sharp mountains and dotted with small village structures, while dragons lazily circle the skies. The reels sit inside a carved wooden frame, giving off a light Viking-fantasy vibe backed by an adventure-style soundtrack. The game is fully mobile-ready, and I had no trouble swapping between desktop and phone without losing any of the atmosphere or performance.

Low-paying symbols are 9, 10, J, Q, K and A card ranks, worth from 1x to 1.4x the bet for a six-of-a-kind way. Premiums are four coloured dragons, paying between 4x and 6x for six matching symbols. Goldar and his Hatchlings act as wilds, substituting for any regular pay symbol and paying like the top dragon. Scatters appear as golden dragon emblems with a purple gem in the centre.

Default RTP is 96.20%, though operators can pick from several lower models such as 94.20%, 91.20%, 87.20% and 84.20%, so I always check the info panel before committing a bankroll. Volatility is medium, and the base hit rate sits around 20.66%, which lines up with my experience of frequent smaller hits while you fish for the more valuable features. The theoretical max win of 30,000x carries a very rare hit rate around one in a billion spins.

Dragonfate's Favor Features

Features in Dragonfate's Favor revolve around two wild types and how they move. Goldar is a 4x1 stacked wild that can land on any reel except the leftmost, either fully or partially in view, while the Hatchlings are single-tile wilds. Both stand in for regular symbols to complete wins, but once Goldar lands fully stacked, the whole tone of the spin changes as the walking wild mechanics kick in.

When Goldar covers a reel, he triggers respins and starts walking one reel to the left after each spin, up to a maximum of five respins if he begins on the rightmost reel. Any Hatchling wild that lands during this sequence becomes sticky and walks either in front of or behind the big dragon until the feature ends. Respins stop once Goldar walks off the first reel, and good setups with several Hatchlings can stack up some chunky ways wins.

Dragonfate's Favor Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters anywhere on the grid awards a cash prize of 5x, 10x, 25x or 100x the bet, then opens a choice of three free spin modes. Alpha Blessing gives 8, 12, 16 or 20 spins, with retriggers adding +6, +9, +12 or +15 spins when 2 to 5 scatters hit. In this variant Goldar becomes sticky between spins and can wander in any direction, while Hatchlings appear but do not stick around.

Hatchling Reward hands out 7, 9, 11 or 13 free spins, with retriggers of +4 to +12 spins for 2 to 6 scatters. Goldar does not appear here; instead, every Hatchling that lands stays sticky, walking in any direction and sometimes carrying x2 or x3 multipliers that multiply together when they share a win. Dragons Gift is the most volatile pick, with 5, 7, 9 or 11 spins and smaller retriggers, but in this mode all wilds are sticky walkers, turning the screen into a slow-moving wall of dragons when the slot behaves.

Theme & Graphics

The theme in Dragonfate's Favor leans hard into a friendly cartoon dragon style, which immediately reminded me of big-budget animated films rather than darker fantasy slots. The hatchlings look adorable, the village backdrop feels cosy, and flames and wingbeats add satisfying touches when features trigger. The soundtrack stays on the right side of adventurous without becoming intrusive, and the animations hold up well even with lots of walking wilds shifting across the six-reel grid on a smaller screen.

Pros and Cons of Dragonfate's Favor

On the positive side, Dragonfate's Favor offers a tried-and-tested 4,096 ways setup with walking wild respins and three distinct free spin modes, which keeps the bonus phase engaging over long sessions. The dual wild system, especially the multiplier Hatchlings, can create heavy hitting screens, and the theoretical 30,000x cap stands out for a Play'n GO medium volatility slot. Visually, the dragon theme is handled with charm, and performance has been smooth for me across devices.

The downsides are mostly tied to the fact this is a straight reskin of an earlier release rather than a fresh design. Mechanically, seasoned players will have seen everything here before, so there is no real surprise factor. The wide RTP range means you might run into a stingier setting if you do not check, and the stated hit rate for the top win makes that headline number feel largely academic. The base game can also drag a bit when Goldar refuses to show.

Dragonfate's Favor: Slot Verdict

As someone who enjoyed the original configuration, I find Dragonfate's Favor an easy slot to sit with when I feel like medium volatility grinding with proper feature spikes. I tend to favour Dragons Gift, as I am happy to trade a few spins for more walking wild pressure, but the other modes have their place if you want a calmer ride. If you are fine with a polished reskin and like dragon-filled, feature-led play, this one is worth a decent session.
