Introduction to Lil' Greedy
Lil' Greedy is a casino slot from Playtech featuring a little greedy dragon. Lil’ Greedy looks like a pretty nice cartoon creature, but you shouldn't be fooled by his looks. He’s a lot stronger than what appears. He’s not only the game’s Wild Symbol, but also Collect Symbol, taking care of all cash prizes on the reels whenever he turns up. He’s also the guy who can trigger the Free Spins by collecting coins. Let’s visit Greedy’s world.
If you want to hang out with the dragon on your own, you can play the free demo of Lil’ Greedy at the top of this page.
Theme, Gameplay, and Payouts
Lil' Greedy is a video slot from Playtech featuring 5 reels with 3 rows and 40 paylines. The Min.bet is 0.1, and the Max.bet is 30. The game’s RTP is 95.93%, and the max win has not been announced by the game developer. Lil’ Greedy has high volatility.
The game is set in a huge treasure chamber full of gold coins. There’s a burning light in the background, and the gold coins create hills on the floor. The five reels in the middle of the screen have a subtle yellow frame, and above them stands a dragon holding a gold coin. To the sides of the dragon are the Zones Dragon Egg and the Multiplier Dragon Egg, representing the two bonus game features. To make a win, you need to land at least 3 matching symbols on one of the 40 paylines going left to right, starting on the first reel to the left. The game is available on mobile phones, tablets, and desktop computers.
The lower-paying symbols in Lil' Greedy are 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A. They pay between 0.3x and 0.5x the bet for a 5-of-a-kind win. The higher-paying symbols are amulets, fields, rings, and circles. They will give you between 0.7x and 3.5x the bet for wins of 5 symbols. The Wild Symbol is a dragon that substitutes all symbols except the Cash Prize Coin and Special Prize Symbols.

What features are available in the slot Lil' Greedy?
The features are Wild Symbol, Rewind Feature, Free Games, and Feature Buy.
Wild Symbol
The Dragon is the game’s Wild Symbol. It can replace all regular-paying symbols in making payline wins. It doesn’t substitute the Cash Prize Coin and Special Prize symbols.
In the main game, the Dragon only appears in the Dragon Zone, which is the middle position on the middle reel. Whenever the Wild Symbol appears, it collects all prizes from any Cash Prize Coin and Special Prize symbols on the screen. The Cash Prize Coins are worth 0.5x to 1.5x the bet, and the Special Prizes pay 5x (Mini), 10x (Minor), 50x (Major), and 500x (Mega).
After collecting prizes, the Dragon throws coins into one or both dragon eggs above the reels, which can randomly trigger the Free Games. The green egg represents the Zones Free Games, and the blue egg can take you to the Multiplier Free Games. The more gold you collect in the eggs, the bigger your chances of triggering the bonus game.
During the Free Games, the Dragon can appear in any unlocked Dragon Zone on any of the reels. The Dragon Zones are always in the middle of a reel, and up to five Dragon symbols can land at the same time if all Dragon Zones are unlocked. Each dragon that appears collects all visible prizes.
Rewind Feature
The Rewind Feature can trigger in both the base game and the Free Games. If the Dragon does not land in the Dragon Zone, the reels may rewind to make it appear there. If the Dragon already lands in the zone, another rewind may occur to bring Special Prize symbols onto the screen.
Free Games
Depending on which pot is triggering the Free Games, you will play the bonus game with the Zones feature, the Multiplier feature, or both. You start with 10 spins, and each dragon will perform one of the following two things whenever it appears:
- Help to fill the unlocked Zones Collection Area, the unlocked Multiplier Collection Area, or both.
- Apply its current multiplier to all visible Cash Prize Coin and Special Prize symbols.
By filling the green Zones Collection Area, you can win extra spins and unlock 2-5 Dragon Zones. By filling the blue Multiplier Collection Area, you can win extra spins and unlock a multiplier up to 10x. You can win up to a maximum of 50 free games.
If more than one Dragon Zone is active and multiple Dragons land, each Dragon adds a flame to the collection areas. If a multiplier is active, every Dragon will collect all prizes on the screen and multiply them by the current multiplier.
Feature Buy
You can buy a ticket straight to the Free Games for 55x the bet.
Final Thoughts on Lil' Greedy
Lil’ Greedy has a pretty cute and friendly look, but underneath the cartoon dragon lies a fairly standard casino slot. It has a couple of interesting ideas, like the Dragon acting as both a Wild and a Collector. Still, once you’ve seen it a few times, it doesn’t exactly feel groundbreaking. It’s also almost a copy of Lil’ Sphinx, featuring a cat in Egypt who performs the same things as the dragon in this game. One thing that differentiates the games is that Lil’ Sphinx has an extra bet, which opens for Wild Symbols on reels 2 and 4 in the base game. It feels like a downgrade that such a feature is gone in this release.
The Rewind Feature is a nice touch on paper, but in reality, it doesn’t always feel as exciting as it sounds. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it just kind of happens. The Free Games are definitely where the action is, especially if you manage to unlock multiple Dragon Zones or build up a decent multiplier. That said, getting there can take some patience, and the rewards don’t always justify the wait.
The RTP is slightly below average, and the lack of max win information doesn’t exactly inspire confidence either. Lil’ Sphinx has a max win of 2,054x, and we assume this release has something similar, which isn’t impressive considering the high volatility.
Lil' Greedy from Playtech is a decent slot if you’re in the mood for a dragon that’s cuter than fearsome.
