Slot machine details and review Valley of Dreams
Valley of Dreams is one of the prettier slots you will find in Evoplayβs collection. Its design is inspired by the Japanese Sakura blossom season, and you see plenty of those oriental-style graphics in its symbols and decorations. It was designed as a slot with 5×5 reels, so on the bigger side, and it offers 3,125 ways to win.
Every slot machine must be developed by a company that invented, designed and put it into operation. Many players eventually find that they only enjoy playing on machines from specific software provider, so they narrow down their selection by preferred brand.
A high volatility slot. Wins are rare, but can be really big. The game has more pronounced fluctuations and can often go without hitting anything for a long time, suitable for players who like adrenaline, higher risk and work with a larger budget. More about volatility here.
Slot theme and symbols
Valley of Dreams is a gorgeous slot machine, with cartoon-style graphics that are inspired by Japanese culture and the Sakura season (the time of the year when the cherry trees are covered by gorgeous pink flowers). The developer mentions a connection to Japanβs seven gods of fortune as well. In the game area, you get symbols with various creatures (lucky cat, turtle, red fox, snake, fish) or with the icons representing elements (bamboo, flowers, water, wind, and fire).
Valley of Dreams theme and symbols
Itβs not just a pretty slot to look at. It also has an excellent top prize that it can deliver, up to 15,613x the stake, though if you try it out, Iβd recommend taking its High volatility into consideration as well. A 96.13% RTP is advertised for Valley of Dreams, so at least you will know that it pays a fair percentage back to the player, even if itβs volatile. Once you form combinations through its ways to win system, a Drop mechanic will trigger, so winning symbols explode, and will be replaced with new symbols, which can lead to more wins and drops.

WILD symbol
Lotus flower wilds can appear on the reels 2, 3, and 4, and from there they are going to be used as substitutes for regular symbols only.
Win Multiplier
As you go through the drop mechanic, all in a single round, water rises on the multiplier meter shown on the left side. Get 5 consecutive wins, and you get the 2x multiplier, which will apply to all the roundβs wins. At the end of the spin, the multiplier resets to 1x, along with your progress on its meter.
Removed Symbols feature
This is one of the more interesting mechanics implemented in Valley of Dreams. Whenever you form a combination with a low-value symbol, all its instances will be removed from the reels. It gets added to the Removed Symbols Bar, and it comes back at the end of the round. As you go through drops and form low-value combinations, the odds of forming high-value combinations go up, since some of the gameβs symbols are removed.
Scatter symbol
The second feature symbol that will land on those reels is the Paper Lantern that has the Scatter logo on top. These symbols appear only during paid spins.
Free Spins
If you get 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols to appear at the same time, you will get 8, 10, or 12 free spins to trigger. During free spins, if you get to the 2x multiplier through 5 consecutive drops, you will then take the multiplier up by 1x with each new drop. The multiplier, once it is activated, will apply to all wins. To get it to increase again, you will have to get another 5 consecutive drops, as the meter resets at the end of each round.

Our rating of the game
Valley of Dreams
Valley of Dreams has several points to make for itself. Itβs a slot that can pay very well, with a 15,000x top jackpot being an excellent target for any player. Of course, it also has high volatility, so itβs not an automatic recommendation, even though the RTP is 96.10%. I like both its graphics and the mechanics that are present inside. From dropping symbols to multipliers, wilds, removed symbols, and free spins, the result is a game that plays differently from most. I wouldβve loved it if the multiplier ladder were not as difficult to take advantage of, but you canβt have it all, I guess.

Wins of up to 15,000x the stake are on the table, as the ultimate target for its players.
Has a 96.10% RTP, so you know that itβs also a fair slot machine with its players.
The drop mechanic, combined with a possible increase in the multiplier.
A Removed Symbols modifier, triggering whenever you form combinations with low symbols.
Excellent graphics, inspired by Japanese culture and by the beauty of the Sakura season.
Cons
The increasing multiplier mechanic is not as accessible as in most slots.
Highly volatile, this is not a slot machine that everyone will enjoy or be able to play in the long run.
Regular winning combinations pay little, at most 4x the stake, even for the best regular symbol.
