Bruce Lee is, of course, the biggest of all Eastern martial arts stars. Without Bruce Lee, Kung Fu and Karate movies would never have been as popular as they are today.
Jackie Chan? Amateur. Chuck Norris? Looser. Jean-Claude Van Damme? Belgian beginner with an ego problem. Ralph "The Karate Kid" Macchio then? Don't make us laugh. With both hands tied on his back and blindfolded, Bruce Lee kicks the collective asses of all these guys. At the same time.
WMS has used Bruce Lee's iconic reputation and image to make a kick-ass video pokie.

How Does the Bruce Lee Pokie Work?
Bruce Lee is a so-called Money Burst pokie, a game mechanism in which many paylines are essentially created by the arrangement of the 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 reels. At land-based casinos, there are dozens of WMS Money Burst pokies, but they are rather rare online.
You play this Bruce Lee pokie with a minimum of 50 and a maximum of 60 paylines, and there is a minimum bet of $ 0.25 per spin and a maximum bet of $ 60 per spin.
Bruce Lee is very disappointing graphically. The symbols are blocky, with far too few pixels. They are more like that of a computer game from the nineties than what you would expect from a modern video pokie. These moderate graphics mainly have to do with a lazy port from the original: at a land-based casino, this slot is just with sharp graphics. It is strange that WMS thinks it is all right.
Symbols and Payouts
The symbols consist of a mix of throwing stars, gold coins, Eastern daggers and, of course, various images of the great Kung Fu master himself.
The red Bruce Lee symbol is wild and replaces all symbols except the scatter symbol.
5 of these wild Bruce Lee symbols also pay the most: 400 coins. If you have all 60 paylines active, it is possible to win 24,000 coins. The maximum bet amounts to 48,000 dollars.
The other premium symbols consist of the other Bruce Lee symbols and the Dragon: these pay 200 coins with a five-of-a-kind.
The other symbols pay out 30 to 150 coins.
Payout Percentage and Variance
The theoretical payout percentage of the Bruce Lee pokie is 96.05%. That means that in the long term, measured over hundreds of thousands of spins, this pokie will pay back just over 96 cents of every dollar that is used.
A high RTP, especially if you compare it with the payout percentage of Bruce Lee in the Las Vegas casinos. There this pokie pays out between 88% and 92% - a huge difference.
The variance is medium: thanks to the stacked wilds in the free spins bonus you can get very nice payouts. However, it can sometimes take an enormous amount of time for this bonus feature to fall and even then it is still questionable whether you will make a big profit.

The Free Spins Bonus: Win up to 20 Free Spins with Extra Wilds
The bonus round consists of free spins where you get extra wilds on the reels.
As with every Money Burst pokie, the bonus round can be activated in three different ways:
- 4 the same symbols on the first 2 reels: you win 5 free spins with the 1st two reels fixed
- 3 scatters on reels 3, 4 and 5: you also win 5 free spins, but without sticky symbols
- A combination of the above: this gives you the top prize of 20 free spins with sticky symbols
With every free spin, one expanding wild is placed on reels 3, 4 or 5 and you also receive one extra wild on a different reel. Indeed, if you have four of the same symbols on the first reels, then the payouts can go really fast.

What Does CasinoFisher Think of the Bruce Lee Pokie?
Bruce Lee is one of the best and most exciting pokies from WMS. But it is just a shame that WMS has made such a mess of Bruce Lee in terms of graphics. The symbols are grainy and out of focus and the rest of the pokie is not really neatly finished.
Even the logo seems like a rush job: you can just see how badly the contours of the Bruce Lee image have been cut out.
An icon like Bruce Lee worth much more. Nevertheless, it is a very high score.
4 out of 5 stars.
