Here’s the awful truth: Most slot players won’t mind game providers borrowing each other’s ideas, as long as there’s something new wedge in them. Floating Dragon - Dragon Boat Festival is a good example.
Floating Dragon - Dragon Boat Festival is a spinoff of Big Bass Bonanza. Pragmatic Play Slot is the game provider of both slot games. Some players criticized the Pragmatic Play Slot for coming up with Floating Dragon - Dragon Boat Festival, calling it an Asian counterpart of Big Bass Bonanza. Is it?
The Dragon Boat Festival is held in late May or early June. It’s an unusual holiday, where dragon boat races are held to honor Qu Yuan, the beloved prime minister of the Chinese state of Chu during the Warring state period.
Chu is an ancient state that includes present-day Shanghai, Jiangxi, and Chongqing. Locals eat dumplings and zongzi, a traditional rice dish, during this time of the year. They take respite from the (incoming?) summer heat. They also pray for good luck.
Big Bass Bonanza is another fishing slot game being played in the ocean. Critics snickered at the players who enjoyed Big Bass Bonanza, describing it as another fishing slot game for those who don’t want to brave the elements (to catch a fish), if not getting fishy smells.
We doubt if the same critics have read Ernest Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea”, if not made a visit to their nearest wet market. Ever. Let’s not veer away from the main subject, though.
Here’s our take: Pragmatic Play Slot did an upgrade with Floating Dragon - Dragon Boat Festival.
Not that Big Bass Bonanza failed to deliver the goods, but there have been too many Jili slot games on fishing. All that is left to do is to come up with one more fishing slot game featuring the megalodon and the other ancient fishes that live along with the dinosaurs. Furthermore, there’s something about a festival lighting up the screen. If it’s set in Asia, then you can go wrong.
Think about Boun Pi Mai Lao, or the Lao New Year, which is held during the summer season. Watch out for locals who would throw a pail of water at you, but it’s OK. It’s the only time of the year when the inhabitants of Luang Prabang let their hair down. We only wish that Pragmatic Play Slot, or any game provider, can come up with an entertaining slot game based from Lao New Year.
