Introduction to Imperial Quest
Imperial Quest is a live game from Evolution featuring the familiar Money Wheel. Here, we are presented with the established Big Wheel mechanic featuring a 54-segmented Money Wheel filled with Cash Prizes and Multipliers. Imperial Quest is a reskin of Dream Catcher, offering identical gameplay but with an East Asian theme. If you are a fan of Dream Catcher or just want an uncomplicated gameplay with Asia-inspired visuals, it’s worth a spin. However, due to a lack of innovation and originality, we rate it as a slightly above-average release from Evolution, but limited. Let’s take a closer look at what Imperial Quest has to offer.
Imperial Quest Information
This game from Evolution provides a design based on a game show theme where the Money Wheel is positioned in the middle of the screen, with the live host guiding you throughout the game. All buttons, including the Bet Spots and Account Info, are positioned on the screen’s lower edge. You can play Imperial Quest on all mobile devices, desktops, and notepads.
This game is available in two other variants:
Dream Catcher = This is the English version of the game.
First Person = This variant is a random number generated (RNG) with a similar interface, rules, and payouts. The First Person variant allows the players to control and play at their own pace. You can choose to “Go Live,” which takes you on a unique journey directly to the live Dream Catcher game show.
Imperial Quest Payouts
The max win in Imperial Quest is €500,000 with an RTP of 95.65% by default. Players can choose from making a Min.bet of 0.1, up to a Max.bet of 1000. The segments on the Money Wheel are:
1 = 23 number of segments and pays 1X.
2 = 15 number of segments and pays 2X.
5 = 7 number of segments and pays 5X.
10 = 4 number of segments and pays 10X.
20 = 2 number of segments and pays 20X.
40 = 1 number of segments and pays 40X.
2X Multiplier = 1 number of segments and multiplies the payout of the next winning by 2X.
7X Multiplier = 1 number of segments multiplies the payout of the next winning by 7X.
Imperial Quest Gameplay
The objective of Imperial Quest is to predict the segment at which the wheel will stop after the spin.
The Money Wheel is divided into 54 equal segments, 52 of which are marked with the numbers 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, or 40, and the other two segments are a 2X and 7X Multiplier. The game host spins the wheel, and the players bet on the number at which the wheel will stop.
Final Thoughts on Imperial Quest
Welcome to an East Asian version of Dream Catcher, featuring the familiar Money Wheel and an asian themed design. Just as in Dream Catcher, this game offers simplistic gameplay revolving around the Big Wheel mechanic. A professional host, dressed in traditional East Asian attire, controls the live action by spinning the wheel and communicating with you and your fellow players. Regarding the design, it may find an audience in East-Asian markets, but it feels too predictable.
As we mentioned in the Introduction, this game provides an identical gameplay to Dream Catcher, which revolves around the Money Wheel, offering Cash Prizes up to 40X the bet or Multipliers. Without any Bonus Games or features, and the fact that this is a reskin, it becomes too repetitive and looped. The gameplay doesn’t evolve, such as in Crazy Times or Crazy Pachinko, making this an average release that lacks depth.
Overall, this Dream Catcher reskin is customized for the Asian market, which is evident by its predictable Asian design. The gameplay is simplistic with easy rules, but it becomes repetitive in the long run. Lastly, the East Asian theme gives this game a certain flair compared to Dream Catcher, but without any changes to the gameplay and only relying on the Big Wheel mechanic, it comes up short against many of the provider’s other live games.
Imperial Quest is a live game with a predictable East Asian theme offering the familiar Money Wheel, but it lacks depth and innovation to keep us entertained.
