Silent Samurai Slot Game Review

Silent Samurai Intro

Appearing alongside another excellent new game, Wild Spirit, Silent Samurai provides another slots machine littered with excellent new features, such as the option to gamble your winnings through a simple card game. This 9 line, 5 reel video slot comes complete with a playable coin value range between 0.01 and 5.00, where up to ten coins can be placed upon each line. With wilds, scatters, bonus games and free spins itching to be revealed after every spin, Playtech’s new range of Novel Slots maybe the best news they have revealed in a very long time.

Review

The slot features an interesting Oriental theme and while the graphics appear cartoonish, the things to really pay attention to in this slots machine are the high awarding scatter-icon, the excellent bonus round and of course, the added option to gamble and essentially double your earnings after every spin. The slot also incorporates a Far-East edge in its reel spin sound effects and features a pleasant soundtrack when accessing the paytable and rules.

As we probably have mentioned before, Playtech seem to follow the rule, “if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it”, so as you can imagine, Silent Samurai incorporates a similar design available on other Playtech slots. Look especially for the Geisha who doubles up as a scatter. As well as looking like an extra from Memoirs of a Geisha, if you spin up to 5 of her in any position across the reels, you can multiply your total bet 100x. Keep your eyes peeled for the “Shuriken” (throwing stars) too, as hitting 5 of these will multiply your line bet 500x!

The video slot has all the attributes for newcomers to understand the relative complexities that may occur in newly released games without having to weed through the endless clutter of numerous lines that you find over-complicates the view. The game also features a wealth of animated icons; the Shuriken expands and spins revealing its deadly nature, the Geisha uses her fan and flutters while she earns you big prizes and the dragon even breathes fire at you! The simplicity of this game means that old hands can relax and wait to win one of the many excellent prizes available, whereas newbies can quickly pick up how to play with the slots streamlined and accessible design.

All in all, this slot really has something for everyone, both accessibility and style, as well as the opportunity to earn big prizes and really, what more can you ask for?

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol comes in the form of the fire breathing dragon and spinning 2, 3, 4 or 5 of these will multiply your line bet 10, 40, 1000 and 5000 times respectively! Don’t forget it can also substitute itself for all other icons excluding the scatter meaning after every spin you might have the possibility of creating winning combinations that may not even have seemed possible at first glance.

Scatter Symbol

The scatter symbol is the Geisha where hitting 3, 4 or 5 of these anywhere on the reels after a spin will help you multiply your total bet 5, 25 and 100 times respectively and grant you a stunning yet small animation sequence.

Bonus Round Free Spins

This “novel slot” offers two bonus features, the first being the excellent gamble feature where you can quickly double your winnings by simply guessing whether a card will be red or black. If you feel as lucky as we did whilst reviewing the game you might be able to match out record of around 1000 coins extra on top of our original winnings! The second and more involved bonus feature gives you the opportunity to win up to 27 free spins where you can multiply all your free spin winnings up to 8 times! In the bonus round you take the role of a deadly ninja and aided by your trusty Shuriken you have to take out the ninjas in front of you, simply clicking on them. After hitting one of these ninjas they will explode and in the aftermath of this explosion you will be able to find out what multipliers and how many free spins you have won. The bonus round is all down to guess work, meaning anyone can play it, but be weary of the “evil ninja” who can end your time earning free spins.
