Finn and the Dragon Tales

About Finn and the Dragon Tales

NetEnt returned to its Finn character in 2025 with a much larger board than the one the series started on. Finn and the Dragon Tales runs on a 7x7 grid rather than reels and paylines, and symbols enter in a clockwise spiral using the Swirly Spin mechanic the studio built for the first game. Wins clear away, new symbols swirl in behind them, and a single spin can keep resolving for some time.

Three dragons sit behind the feature set. Green, Blue Ice and Red dragons each attach multipliers when they appear, and a Frozen Key scatter opens one of three Free Spins zones. Midnite runs the game at an RTP of 94% with a maximum win of 3,828x your stake, and it is available to UK and Ireland players.

How to Play Finn and the Dragon Tales

Choose your stake and spin. There are no paylines here. A win needs three or more matching symbols in a straight horizontal or vertical line anywhere on the 7x7 grid, so wins can form in the middle of the board with nothing touching an edge. Stakes at Midnite start from £0.20 per spin.

Every win triggers an Avalanche. The winning symbols are removed, remaining symbols shift, and fresh ones spiral in from the outside of the grid, which is where the chain wins come from. Wild symbols substitute for the paying symbols and carry a 1x or 2x multiplier depending on how they land. Landing the Frozen Key in a keyhole position starts the Free Spins round, and the keyhole reached decides whether you get the Bronze, Silver or Gold zone. Full symbol values and feature rules are on the in-game help screen.

Finn and the Dragon Tales Theme and Symbols

Finn is a leprechaun, and the first game in the series leaned on Irish folklore. This one moves him into dragon territory, with three elemental dragons standing beside the grid and a cave setting behind it. The art is bright and hand-drawn rather than photoreal, and the spiral movement of the symbols gives the board a different rhythm to a standard cascading slot.

Nine regular paying symbols carry the lower and middle end of the paytable, split into red, blue and green sets of gems and dragon claws. Above them sit the wilds, the Frozen Key scatter and the treasure chests that appear in Free Spins. Each dragon has its own colour coding that matches one of the gem sets, so it is easy to see which symbols a dragon is about to act on.
