Test Driving the Twin Samurai
this is another of the new microgaming slots that came out on the first of December. i’m doing some more playing at All Jackpots, and decided to give this slot a few spins and see what it feels like.
there are several interesting features on this slot. the first is the geisha scatter symbol. this symbol also acts as the trigger symbol that unlocks the Free Spins Round. you can land the scatter symbol for a regualr scatter win, or you can land three or more in a row (from left to right starting with reel #1), and unlock a series of 10 Free Spins. the winning combos are doubled in value during the free spin session.
you can also retrigger the free spins session by landing more scatter symbols in a row.
the second interesting part of the game is the expanding samurai special substitute. these symbols only land on reels two and four. and, if they are capable of filling in a winning combination, they will expand to cover all three symbols in the column, and create a winning combo for you.
so, they act like a very tall WILD symbol, or some such sort of thing. i hit my biggest winner of the session when two samurai sprung into action and filled in reels two and four with wild symbols, letting me create five symbol winner!
i was using autospin (from the expert mode) and didn’t set the game to stop, so no chance to get a screenshot on it.
when the samurai springs into action, there is a cartoon/anime that covers the whole column, so the visual effect, coupled with the samurai sound, really jumps out at you. i think it’s a pretty neat touch.
before my time on the slot was finished i managed to unlock a free spins round. most of the spins were worth zero, but i did hit one winner that managed to make the whole bonus round worth hitting.
in the end, i think the Twin Samurai machine is a pretty rich Video Slot game. it’s definitely a winner.
