Red Silk and Aztec Chief are two related AGS video slots built on the same Orion cabinet platform and 75-payline reel format, though they lean into very different visual themes. Red Silk uses an East Asian silk-and-lantern aesthetic, while Aztec Chief takes on a retro Mesoamerican theme. Both are five-reel games that share a "Wild Reel" mechanic -- collecting symbols can turn an entire reel wild -- and both link into AGS's multi-tier progressive jackpot network rather than carrying a single standalone jackpot.

Shared Platform: AGS Orion, 75 Lines

Both games run on AGS's Orion cabinet, the manufacturer's flagship premium cabinet platform, with a five-reel layout and 75 fixed paylines. AGS (American Gaming Systems, rebranded to that shorter name in 2014 after being acquired by Apollo Global Management) has built much of its modern slot catalog around this reel count and cabinet family.

Red Silk

Red Silk uses an East Asian theme built around silk fabric and lanterns, with a bonus feature themed around selecting lanterns for a jackpot prize. Its betting range on the Orion cabinet runs from a penny denomination up to several hundred credits per spin depending on the casino's configuration.

Aztec Chief

Aztec Chief takes on a retro Mesoamerican theme with Aztec iconography across the reel set. The bonus round opens after landing a set number of bonus wild symbols, which awards an initial batch of free spins, and additional wild symbols appearing during that round can extend the bonus further.

Wild Reel Feature and Progressive Jackpots

Both games share AGS's "Wild Reel" mechanic: as players collect gold coin symbols during regular play, an entire reel can be turned wild at once, a more dramatic version of a standard wild symbol since it affects every payline running through that reel simultaneously. Both titles also link into AGS's progressive jackpot network, giving players a choice among multiple linked jackpot tiers rather than a single fixed top award.
