Background
You will not be able to resist the charm of this game. The combination between cartoonish, comic book imagery and Hokusai fine art is sure to aid in a pleasant gaming experience for hours on end. The background is nothing short of serene with ornate temples, swirling clouds and the majestic mountains that tower in the distance. The waving banners of the Samurai army look as though they are marching right at you!
Samurais and their legendary swords are a great inspiration for the symbols on this slot machine, as you can see from bottles of sake to military banners. Even the lower value symbols have been given a Japanese twist with the addition of Samurai inspired icons like pagodas or katanas to each symbol. Alongside all these great symbols, acrobatic samurai attacks spice the game up even more with fiery special effects.
The Samurai Split game is an inventive and entertaining slot machine that features a unique gameplay mechanic. Players will be delighted by the Japanese warriors hopping across the screen, slicing any matching symbols in two! This deliver two separate wins from each winning symbol as they are cut in half. As you can imagine this has the effect of at least multiplying your win by 2, this means that the top return of 500x your stake can be boosted up to 32 times. The generous RTP (Return to player) of 96.6% that is above industry standard possibly explains how often these payouts can occur.
Bonuses
The splitting mechanic in this game is important not only for the main game, but also in bonus rounds. Land five scatters and you’ll get 15 free spins; try to land more than one of them on your screen at once! If it lands successfully any scatter can be split too–you can up that number all the way to 480 with just a few lucky plays! As well as this great feature is the bonus round that are played with only high value symbols meaning you’ll struggle to get a low return from these rounds.
