Ways of the Qilin at 222 app — every spin on the Qilin's path
Follow the Qilin's trail in this mythical video slot by PG Soft. Every spin in Ways of the Qilin holds a new possibility.
What is the Qilin — the slot's theme and background
Ways of the Qilin is a PG Soft video slot built around the Qilin, a creature from Chinese mythology. In Chinese folklore, the Qilin is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune — a horned, scaled mythical beast said to move without touching the ground. PG Soft has crafted a rich visual experience around this theme, with each symbol reflecting traditional Chinese aesthetics.
The game is set on 5 reels and 4 rows, creating 1,024 ways to win. Instead of fixed paylines, this "ways to win" system awards a win whenever the same symbol appears on adjacent reels from left to right. The reel graphics and animations are in line with PG Soft's usual standard — soft lighting, detailed symbols, and special sound and lighting effects on wins.

What happens in a spin — reels, wins and bonuses
Each spin in Ways of the Qilin begins by setting your bet. The game's bet range is fairly flexible, so players with smaller budgets can start at a comfortable level. Once the bet is set, pressing "spin" turns all 5 reels and wins are determined by matching symbol combinations.
A win is formed when the same symbol appears consecutively on adjacent reels starting from the left. Typically, a combination of 3 to 5 matching symbols in a row pays out. The Wild symbol in this game can substitute for any regular symbol, which opens up the chance to complete multiple winning combinations at once.
When 3 or more Scatter symbols land on the reels, the free spins bonus round begins. During the bonus round, multipliers or special Wild symbols may be added, offering greater return potential than regular spins. The maximum possible win in the game can reach several hundred times the base bet — which is why it features on many players' lists of favourites.

Which type of player is this slot for
Ways of the Qilin is a medium-to-high volatility slot. Volatility refers to how often wins occur and how large each win tends to be. In a high volatility slot, smaller wins may come less frequently, but when a big win does land it can be significant. This type of game is better suited to patient players who are prepared for longer sessions.
In terms of budget, this game is flexible — you can play with small bets. However, reaching the bonus round may take some time and patience. Players who prefer a steady stream of quick, smaller wins may find a lower volatility game more suitable.
One note on session length — keeping a set time limit in mind makes for a better experience. Plan a session of around 30 minutes or 1 hour and stick to it.
- Better suited to patient players
- You can start with a small budget, but keeping to it is important
- Decide your session length before you start
Some practical tips for playing sensibly
Following a few practical guidelines before playing Ways of the Qilin or any slot makes for a much more satisfying experience.
-
Start with the demo: If 222 app offers a demo mode for the game, try it there first. It helps you understand the pace, symbols, and bonus mechanics, and builds confidence before playing with real money.
-
Set a session budget: Before each session, decide on a maximum amount — say ৳500 or ৳1,000 — and stop for the day once it is gone. This habit helps maintain financial control over the long term.
-
Stick to a stop limit: Even when winning, set a specific limit — for example, finish the session once you have won ৳2,000. This rule helps protect your winnings.
-
Read the paytable: Before starting the game, click the paytable or info button to check the value of each symbol and the bonus conditions. It takes only 2 minutes but is well worth it.

Common misconceptions about slots and the reality
Many players carry certain false beliefs about slots that influence their decisions. Recognising these misconceptions can help avoid a lot of problems.
"This slot is due to pay out now"
Every spin is completely independent and controlled by a random number generator (RNG). The result of a previous spin has no effect whatsoever on the next one. The idea that the chance of winning increases after a long losing streak is entirely false.
"I'll raise my bet to recover my losses"
Placing larger bets to quickly recover losses is risky. This behaviour is called "loss chasing" and it typically leads to even greater losses.
Reality: RNG means equal odds every time
Every spin starts fresh. The slot's algorithm follows mathematical rules — there are no patterns or "hot/cold" systems. Make decisions based on your budget, not on guesswork.
Knowing when to stop is a skill
Stopping when your set budget runs out or when you reach your stop limit is a sign of a capable player. The game will always be there to play again — but going beyond your budget means it is no longer just entertainment.
How it differs compared to other slots
The slots section at 222 app has many types of games — Megaways, classic 5-reel, fishing, crash, and more. The "ways to win" system in Ways of the Qilin works differently from standard payline counting.
In classic payline slots, symbols must match on specific fixed lines — typically 9 to 50 lines. The ways to win system removes that restriction; matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right is all that is needed. This means far more winning paths are available on every spin.
In Megaways slots, reel height changes with every spin, so the number of ways also changes — sometimes into the thousands. Ways of the Qilin does not have that variability; it always has exactly 1,024 fixed ways. This makes the gameplay easier to follow.
Compared to fishing or crash games, Ways of the Qilin stays within slot mechanics — there is no shooting or crash-out mechanic here. Each type of game offers a different kind of experience.
