Wealth Inn is a Habanero slot, dated 2020 on the studio's site, styled as a classic machine: three reels of three on a curved drum, eight fixed lines and one feature. Cai Shen, the god of wealth, is the wild: when his hat is part of a winning line, he fills the whole reel before anything is paid. Habanero rates it low volatility, with a top multiplier of x188.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as Habanero publishes it.
The studio supplies more than one RTP, and each casino picks one: its copy shows the figure on the game's info screen.

How Wealth Inn works
Behind a curved 3D display made to look like a physical slot machine sits a 3x3 grid with eight lines that are always on. The stake changes with the coin size and bet level, never the number of lines.
Lines pay left to right and only for three of a kind. Only the highest win on a line counts, and wins on different lines add up. The eight lines are the three rows, the two diagonals and three bent lines: top-bottom-top, bottom-top-bottom and middle-bottom-middle.
The wild lands as a small red-and-gold hat in one cell. When that hat is part of a winning combination, it expands into Cai Shen over every position on its reel before anything is paid, and Cai Shen substitutes for every symbol. Every line crosses every reel once, so his reel is wild on all eight lines. Nothing else in the rules triggers him, so he appears only on a spin that already pays.
Everything the game does, in one list
- Expanding wild. A hat in a winning line grows into Cai Shen over its whole reel. Three Cai Shen on a line are also the top pay.
- Mixed knot pay. Any three knots on a line pay, whatever the colours.
- Two progressive jackpots. Minor and Grand meters, explained further down.
- Autoplay stops. Where a casino offers autoplay, it can stop after a balance drop or a single win of a size you set.
- Casino-run extras. Jackpot Race, UP Tournaments and bonus free spins are tools a casino switches on.
- What it leaves out. There is no scatter, free games round, bonus buy, SuperBet or feature multiplier.
What each line pays against what a spin costs
Each three-of-a-kind pay in coins at bet level 1, where a spin costs eight coins, then as a multiple of the total bet and in rand at R4 a spin.
| Three on a line | Coins at bet level 1 | Times your total bet | On a R4 spin |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cai Shen (wild) | 188 | 23.5x | R94 |
| Peach | 58 | 7.25x | R29 |
| Ruyi sceptre | 28 | 3.5x | R14 |
| Gold ingot | 18 | 2.25x | R9 |
| Gold knot | 8 | 1x | R4 |
| Red knot | 5 | 0.625x | R2.50 |
| Green knot | 3 | 0.375x | R1.50 |
| Any three knots, mixed | 2 | 0.25x | R1 |
Low volatility, in the paytable's own numbers
Habanero rates Wealth Inn low volatility, and the table shows why. On one line, red, green and mixed knots pay less than the eight coins the spin cost, so they are partial refunds. Gold knots only return the stake, and every single-line pay above the stake needs one of the four top symbols.
The top is modest too. Three wilds on a line pay 23.5 times the total bet, and a screen of wilds would pay that on all eight lines. That is 188 times, the x188 Habanero publishes as the maximum multiplier, or R752 on a R4 spin. Only a progressive jackpot, where a casino runs one, pays more.
The two jackpots above the reels
Two meters sit over the reels, Minor and Grand. Each takes 0.25% of every bet, has no upper limit and resets to its start when won; in Habanero's demo they start at €50 and €5,000. One can be won at random at the end of any game, on top of any other win.
A bigger bet has a bigger chance, and each jackpot has a theoretical return of 0.50%. No jackpot can be won in fun or bonus play, and a jackpot may run in another currency at published exchange rates.
These are Regular Jackpots a casino switches on from Habanero's Back Office, each tier with its own seed, so a South African lobby may run other amounts or none. Like Hot Hot Fruit, the game also comes in five RTP settings, and the casino picks one.

Pros, cons and verdict
- Nine cells, eight fixed lines, one feature: easy to follow on a phone
- Every line pay is in the paytable, and the top multiplier is x188
- A reel held by Cai Shen is wild on all eight lines at once
- Nothing on the reels pays more than 188 times the bet
- No free spins round, no bonus buy and no feature multiplier
- Several line pays return less than the spin cost
- RTP from about 86% to 98%, depending on the casino's setting
Wealth Inn is a three-reel game with one idea. A line of wilds pays 23.5 times the bet and a full screen 188 times, and most wins below that are small, several smaller than the spin. It suits short, simple rounds on a small stake, not anyone waiting for a bonus round. Before the first real-money spin, read the RTP and jackpot sections of the game's Help.
Wealth Inn FAQ
How do you play Wealth Inn?
The eight lines are fixed, and a spin costs eight coins times the bet level you set. A line pays when its three symbols match, or when they are three knots of any colours. When the red-and-gold hat is part of a win, Cai Shen covers its whole reel before the win is paid.
Does Wealth Inn have free spins?
Not inside the game: there is no free games round or bonus buy, and the only feature is the expanding wild. A casino may still give free spins on it as a promotion, a tool Habanero offers.
What is the maximum win on Wealth Inn?
x188 the bet by Habanero's figure, or R752 on a R4 spin: a screen of Cai Shen wilds paying 23.5 times the bet on all eight lines. The jackpots, where a casino runs them, are paid on top.
How can I see which RTP my casino runs?
Open the game menu, then Help, and scroll to Return To Player. Habanero offers settings from about 86% to 98% and the casino picks one. In Habanero's own demo it reads 96.67% for the game plus 0.50% for each jackpot.
Can I win the jackpot without a real-money bet?
No. A jackpot cannot be won in fun or bonus play, so the demo shows the meters but never pays one.
Who makes Wealth Inn, and when did it come out?
Habanero, licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority under MGA/B2B/643/2018. Its own site dates Wealth Inn to 2020.
