Bruce Lee Money Burst Slot for Free, Review & Our Bonuses!
Bruce Lee was probably the most famous of all martial artists, and is considered by many to the founder of mixed martial arts. Bruce was also a well-known actor, so it should come as no surprise really that he was eventually immortalized in an online slot machine game. This particular video slot has been designed by WMS Gaming. The Bruce Lee video slot was released last year, amid mixed reviews, although its payline structure was much appreciated. Now, you can claim a Bruce Lee slot bonus right from this page or play it completely free, whichever you prefer!
There is also another version of the game, which I personally consider a fair bit superior – Bruce Lee Dragon’s Tale but I suggest that you try both in our freeplay mode and decide whichever, if any, is worth playing for real money. If you’re into that, make sure to use our bonuses, listed right below the free game.

How to play it?
The gameplay menu is quite basic, and all of the buttons and their functions are easily identifiable. They are very much the standard for WMS Gaming actually, with individual bet buttons, a pay-table and auto-spin button present in the menu.
The number of paylines in this 5 reel, 60 payline video slot cannot be altered. Bets range from 0.01 per 2 lines, up to 2.00 per 2 lines. In short, your minimum and maximum wagers are fixed at limits of 0.30 per spin, or 60.00 per spin, respectively.
Unless you wish to use the auto-spin button to play consecutive spins, or want to adjust the sound and other customizable options, you can click the spin button to commence gameplay. You will notice that the reels are divided up into an odd formation. The first two reels are compact, whilst the remaining three reels are more open, with more symbols on display. This structure can actually aid a player in winning good money.
How much can you win?
When playing with the maximum wager staked, the most that you can win at any one time in this slot is 800 credits. This happens to be non-progressive jackpot that the Bruce Lee slot offers. The icons needed to land this pay-out are wilds, and you require 5 of them on a payline to win the jackpot.
The Bruce Lee slots logo, a karate kicking Bruce and a dragon icon are also worth big pay-outs, roughly half the value of the jackpot if 5 are struck on any paylines. The more Asian and oriental cultural themed icons are worth less, whilst the weapons are worth the least of all the pay-outs in this video slot machine game.
Special symbols
There are two special icons in this video slot. The first is a wild icon, whilst the second is a feature symbol.
The wild icon is a portrait of Bruce Lee himself. The wild icon is a basic replacement symbol, and can substitute itself for all other icons in the slot, with the exception of the feature symbol.
That feature symbol is the treasure chest. If the treasure chest icon is located on the third, fourth and fifth reels at the same time, the bonus round will be triggered.
Free Spins / Bonus Features
There is however, more than one way of triggering the bonus round. Players don’t just have to land the bonus icons on reels 3, 4 and 5. They can also trigger the bonus game if they land four identical symbols on the first two reels. A third way is by a combination of both of these previous methods.
When you land four identical symbols on the first two reels, you will pocket 5 free spins, with the first four symbols being held throughout. If you trigger the bonus the main way (with 3 bonus symbols), you will be treated to 5 free spins with a wild reel added after every spin. With the third and most complicated (also virtually impossible) way to trigger the bonus round, players will be treated to 20 free spins. This particular reviewer had no luck in triggering the third way of obtaining the bonus round, even though WMS Gaming insist it can be done!
Tips & Tricks
The Bruce Lee slot is a part of WMS Gaming’s Money Burst series. It isn’t really a surprise then that the player stands their best chance of picking up good winnings during the bonus round. It is nice that you can trigger them in three different ways, but be warned – this is not easy. Bruce Lee isn’t overly expensive to play, but players should try to keep their wagers down if they want to trigger the bonus round, as it could take a while. You wouldn’t want to run out of funds now, would you? Don’t worry about winning big money too much, if you trigger the bonus and land the wild reels bonus feature, you’ll win more than enough cash, in most cases anyway.
Overall Experience & Final Thoughts
Let’s get the most obvious observation out of the way first. Yes, the graphics are really, really bad. They are very reminiscent of a slot that may have popped up in the late 90s. Make no mistake about it though, this Bruce Lee slot isn’t that old! If you look past that bit, then you will find that gameplay structure of this video slot overrules any negative feelings you may have about the poor quality of the graphics.
The Bruce Lee video slot does have a very generous pay-out plan. You don’t really have to bag too many of the high-end symbols to pick up some pretty amazing victories. And yet, the best money is still to be had in the bonus games.
