A 5x3 grid with 25 fixed paylines, all active at once, makes up the base game of Sleeping Dragon. The theme blends dragons, fantasy, medieval and money imagery. You set one total bet, which covers every line, and a win can start with 2 matching symbols on a payline. The jackpot ladder of MINI, MINOR, MAJOR and MEGA stays visible above the reels throughout.
Three, four or five SCATTER symbols start the Free Spins, which award 6, 9 or 50 spins. Reels 2, 3 and 4 can merge into a Giant Symbol. A giant MONEY symbol converts the round into the Respin Bonus, where 6 or more MONEY symbols trigger 3 respins. Each new MONEY hit resets the counter to 3 until respins run out or the grid fills.
Round guide
Many readers worry about what happens between pressing spin and seeing the result.
The bet is one total value, chosen from A$0.10 up to A$250. All 25 paylines stay active, so that total covers every line, with no per-line selection to make.
On the 5x3 grid, two matching symbols can already pay, across the 25 fixed paylines, all active on every spin.
The base game shows a jackpot ladder bar above the reels, with MINI, MINOR, MAJOR and MEGA always visible. Three or more SCATTER symbols anywhere on the grid trigger Free Spins.
Three SCATTER symbols anywhere award 6 spins, four award 9 and five award 50. A giant SCATTER retriggers and adds 3 more spins.
Set a budget before the first spin, since each spin takes the total bet from it. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 if play stops being fun.

Keep your spins
After this section you will know how each bonus starts and which symbols you need.
Free spins start when 3, 4 or 5 SCATTER symbols land anywhere, awarding 6, 9 or 50 spins. Reels 2, 3 and 4 can merge into a giant symbol under an elevated paytable. A giant SCATTER retriggers +3 spins, and a giant MONEY converts the round into the Respin Bonus.
Base Game spinsExtra spins
6+ MONEY symbols on one spin trigger 3 respins. Each new MONEY hit resets the respin counter to 3. The feature ends when respins reach 0 or the 5x3 grid fills 15/15, which adds an extra 7000x total-bet MEGA bonus on top of summed coin values.

The 96.50 percent RTP of Sleeping Dragon describes a long run of spins, not the next one. How often the Free Spins or Respin Bonus comes is not known in advance. One session can contain no bonus at all or several, and its result is random whatever the RTP says.
96.50 percent is the only RTP version listed for Sleeping Dragon on this page. Which RTP version runs in the lobby is shown only in the game rules, so read those rules before the first spin, not after.
x15,000 is the most Sleeping Dragon can pay, measured against the bet, and it is a ceiling rather than a target. Reaching it is very rare. The high volatility rating means wins arrive in uneven bursts, so no single session can be planned around that ceiling.
Demo basics
Read this before opening the game for the first time or depositing any money.
The 5x3 grid runs in demo mode with no money, and that mode pays nothing. The real game needs a 777 Casino account and a player aged 18+.

Know before spinning
Read this before your first session when you are choosing a bet size.
A$0.10 is the smallest total bet in Sleeping Dragon, and A$250 is the highest. The paytable and the examples on this page use A$0.20 and A$2, which are examples only, not the limits of the game or the market.
A 5x3 grid with 25 fixed paylines still leaves room for big swings, because Sleeping Dragon has high volatility. Wins can come rarely and unevenly, and a quiet stretch with no large hit is part of how high volatility works.
x15,000 of the bet is the largest win Sleeping Dragon can pay. At the A$2 example bet that is A$30,000, and at the A$250 highest bet it reaches A$3,750,000. Those amounts are the top prize for each bet, not an average result players can expect.
A$0.20 is the paytable bet, the total bet at which the payouts on this page are shown. Bets in Sleeping Dragon start at A$0.10, so a low stake lets you see how a round runs before you raise it.
100x the total bet is the price of each bonus buy in Sleeping Dragon, so at the A$2 example bet one costs A$200. Two options exist, Free Spins and Respin Bonus, and both cost the same.
18+ only. Support is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and you can register with BetStop, the national self-exclusion register, at any time.
A$250 is the highest bet in Sleeping Dragon, so set a session budget you can afford and keep to it before the first spin.
25 fixed paylines are active on every spin. Decide your stop point before you start, and keep to it after a win too.
A$2 is the top example bet, yet high volatility can build losses fast. Use the deposit and loss limits in your account to cap what you put in.
Even at the A$0.20 paytable bet, losses add up. When Sleeping Dragon stops being fun, take a break, and use BetStop if a pause is not enough.
