- A brilliant slot from Red Tiger Gaming with expanding wilds
- Winning combinations lead to expanding wilds on the next spin
- Free spins bonus can lead to big payouts
Ali Baba’s Luck slot is the latest from Red Tiger Gaming. It’s not the first slot to use the Ali Baba theme, PlayNGo did one quite recently in fact although I’m pleased to say this one is considerably better and focuses on expanding wilds, but more on that shortly.
To being, all you need to do is get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols. These are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- 10, Jack or Queen (lowest value)
- King or Ace
- Ring or Vase
- Woman
- Man (highest value)

Ali Baba’s Luck Slot Bonuses and Features
Expanding Symbols. If you get a winning combination (which you’d hope you would), the symbol that formed the win will illuminate in the meter above the reels, turning the symbol gold. Now if you get a win with the illuminated gold symbol on the next spin, the symbol will expand to fill the whole reel. Better yet, these expanded symbols don’t actually have to connect to form a win, meaning a fully expanded set of 10s on reels 1, 2 and 5, for example, will still give you a win.
Dream Spins Feature. Expanding symbols are a staple of the slot and are enhanced during the dream spins feature. It’s triggered when you land 3 or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels at the same time. You’ll then be presented with a special wheel which decides how many spins you’ll get with a minimum of 4 if you only triggered the bonus with 3 bonus symbols. Now you’re probably wondering what makes these dream spins so dreamy. Well, the Expanding Symbols feature I mentioned earlier is enhanced, meaning every symbol that gets illuminated stays illuminated for the rest of the bonus. In other words, once a symbol has chosen to be expanding by getting a win with it, it will also expand. When this is stacked with other symbols, the results can be impressive. Furthermore, it’s possible to get a win with multiple expansions this way so they will all be paid out separately. As a final note, you can retrigger the bonus by landing 3 or more bonus symbols.
Conclusion
Ali Baba’s Luck slot from Red Tiger Gaming may have quite a simple design and set of features, but it can prove to be very effective. Expanding wilds have always been popular amongst slot players with games like Eye of Horus amongst many others being fan favourites. Red Tiger have gone for something a bit different here but equally, if not more, effective. Being able to get so many expanding wilds during the free spins bonus can work really well, especially with the higher-value symbols, offering wins over 5,000x your stake. Even the base game works well and can generate big payouts. It’s a great slot and I really like the features here. If expanding wilds are your thing you should definitely check this slot out, it’s original and highly effective. You can also find other Red Tiger Gaming slots here.
