WHAT IT IS
Moon Princess in short
Moon Princess is a July 2017 grid slot from Play'n GO, 5 by 5, three or more matching symbols in a row or column to pay, with three anime princesses who each do something to the grid when a spin misses. It is the game that started the studio's run of 5 by 5 grid slots, and it is still in most Canadian lobbies. The published RTP on the top build is 96.50% and the cap is 5,000x.
Canadians search for it because of the free spins choice and because it is not a Pragmatic clone. You have to clear every symbol off the grid to reach the bonus, then pick Love, Star or Storm for 4, 5 or 8 spins. Clearing the grid is hard, the bonus is rare, and when it hits with the multiplier held at 20x the game earns its reputation.
HOW IT PLAYS
Base game and symbols
Three or more of the same symbol in a horizontal or vertical line pays. Winners vanish, symbols above drop down, and the multiplier in the corner goes up by one on every consecutive win in the chain. The middle symbol of a winning line turns into a wild moon, which helps the next drop. In the base game the multiplier resets when the chain ends, and the top is 20x.
The princesses are the base-game feature. When a spin lands with no win, one of them can step in: Love turns one symbol type into another, Star adds one or two wilds, Storm removes two symbol types from the grid. Any of those can turn a dead spin into a chain. The trinity meter fills as you win and, when full, gives three spins where Love, Star and Storm take turns.
The pace is slower than the Pragmatic grids, with a pause for each princess animation, and the symbols pay small, so a C$30 session at C$0.40 lasts. Most casino bonuses cap the stake at about C$5 to C$7 a spin. The original has no bonus buy, which keeps it on more allowed lists than the later Moon Princess games, and high volatility means the balance still swings.

THE FEATURE
Bonus round
Clear all 25 symbols from the grid in one chain and you get to choose: Love gives 4 free spins, Star gives 5, Storm gives 8, and the chosen princess steps in on every spin that misses. The multiplier does not reset between free spins, so a round that reaches 12x on spin two pays everything after at 12x and climbing. Clearing the grid again during the round pays a bonus on top and adds spins, up to 20 in total.
A dead bonus is four Love spins where the symbol swaps never line up, the multiplier sits at 3x, and the round pays a handful of times your stake. It happens. Clearing the grid to trigger the round is itself a rare event, often several hundred spins apart, so most sessions never see the choice screen at all.
OUR TAKE
Should you play Moon Princess?
Play it if you like grid slots with a mechanic you have to think about, a bonus you have to earn rather than buy, and a multiplier that keeps climbing in the feature. It suits a longer real-money session more than a quick one. Skip it if you want a feature every half hour; clearing the grid takes a long time. For the same grid with a collect meter instead of a clear, Reactoonz is the sister game, and Rise of Olympus 100 is the same mechanic with Greek gods and a bigger cap.

01Love, Star or Storm, which free spins should I pick in Moon Princess?
Storm gives 8 spins and removes symbols, which clears space for chains. Star gives 5 and adds wilds. Love gives 4 and swaps a symbol type, which can produce big single wins. Most regulars take Storm for the spin count; Love is the gamble for a bigger multiplier run.
02Can I play Moon Princess with a casino bonus in Canada?
Usually. There is no bonus buy in the original, so the only rule that matters is the stake cap, normally C$5 to C$7 a spin. Check the in-game info page for the RTP build, since Play'n GO ships several and the 96.50% version is the one worth wagering on.
03How do you trigger the free spins?
You have to clear every one of the 25 symbols off the grid in a single chain of wins and princess powers. There is no scatter. That makes the bonus rare, and most of a session is base-game chains with the trinity meter filling slowly in the corner.
