Rise of Shinobi Features
At first glance, there appears to be a lot going on in this game which might make you a little nervous in the beginning. But never fear as many of the features and modifiers are tried and tested classics and a couple of them even tie into one another quite nicely. The aim for every player is to see young Shinobi make his way to victory in the free spins round and this is where you will find the biggest and best payouts as he summons the power of the spirit animals.
ClusterSpin™
If you're keen to find an alternative type of slot-spinning action, look no further than ClusterSpin. This feature allows you to select a number of spins to play and decide if you think there will be more winning or losing spins. You pay an extra ante on top of your regular bet and the payouts differ depending on how many spins you choose.
Win Maker
There's not much to the Win Maker and it is simply a random winning spin. It all starts with a losing spin and Shinobi blasts his power onto the reels to produce a payout.
Shinobi Walking Wilds
There are two types of Shinobi Wild symbols to look out for but both of them have the power to walk from right to left. They continue walking until they reach the end of the reels and each step brings a respin that could produce even more wins.
SuperStretch™ Reels
We mentioned before that two features are tied in very closely in this game and those are the Walking Wilds and this SuperStretch Reels modifier.
During the base game, Shinobi is a single symbol and he appears in his regular colours. When a bonus symbol lands while he is present on the reels, he will swing his sword and produce additional rows. It won't be a complete row, however, but it does open up the winline possibilities a little further.
In the free spins bonus, our Walking Wilds are golden and they can stack to cover several available spaces on the reel.
Free Spins
If you are in an area outside the UK that allows the direct purchase of a bonus feature, then you are in luck with the Bonus Rush option. You have two choices and they are regular free spins at the cost of 60x your bet and super free spins that will set you back 120x your bet. The difference here is that Shinobi has already unlocked a few extra rows with his sword-slashing antics.
Apart from our Walking Wilds getting a bit of an upgrade during this game, there are also Spirit Animals now present. Each time one lands, they add to the meter and every three give you additional free spins.
