Dragon Lights: Fortune Skies / Mystical Falls / Secret Fortress Advantage Play Strategy

Manufacturer: IGT

How the advantage works

Dragon Lights features four progressive free games meters—mini, minor, major and mega. The number of free games increases whenever one of the corresponding progressive symbols lands in the fifth reel. These aren’t must-hit-bys, so it is completely random when the progressives actually hit. Therefore, Dragon Lights is a volatile game that only experienced APs with large bankrolls should play.

Additional notes on Dragon Lights

  • I don’t recommend ever directly chasing the mega. The best method is to keep an eye on any high megas and then chase the smaller progressives when they are at playable numbers. You might get lucky and hit the mega during these chases. I have a friend who utilized this method and hit the mega at 150 free games on a $5 bet—he won over $4,000.

  • The mini free games features up to 3x multipliers, the minor up to 5x, the major up to 8x and the mega up to 15x. It’s not just the number of free games that matters because the multipliers can have a dramatic effect on the payout.

  • The flames appear on the numbers once they reach the average number that the progressive hits at. A higher number doesn’t mean it is more likely to hit though. I’ve heard recommendations from other APs to play whenever all four numbers are on fire. This is horrible advice—the numbers get flames way before they become +EV.

  • All four of the progressives are actually capped at a maximum of 200 games. But that doesn’t mean it will trigger at that number, just that it won’t increase any further beyond that point.

  • Dragon Lights comes in three themes—Fortune Skies, Mystical Falls and Secret Fortress. All three versions have the same AP strategy.

The major at 64 free games is a solid (but still super volatile) play.

Even with only 22 free games, the mega paid out nicely for a $2.50 bet.

The average hit point of the mini is 8 free games, so it’s rare (but not unheard of) to run this high.
