Samurais Pleasure from Swintt

By Dave Sawyer, Last updated Jul 28, 2023

Swintt, known for its captivating Premium releases like Jade Princess and Lucky Fortune Door set in ancient China, is now taking players on a journey to pre-modern Japan with its new slot, Samurais Pleasure.

This five-reel, ten pay-line game draws inspiration from the honourable Ronin, who upheld law and order in Japan until the late 19th century. The backdrop features towering castles, and the reels are adorned with beautifully-designed custom symbols.

These unique symbols capture the essence of the era, including paper lanterns, ornate hand fans, a smiling princess, and an armour clad samurai, both serving as the highest-value symbols. Even the conventional playing card values from ace to ten have been given a Far Eastern twist. Swintt’s signature “book” scatter symbol also makes a welcome appearance.

The “book” scatter is a common feature across Swintt’s Premium releases and is crucial for activating Samurais Pleasure’s main bonus round. Landing three or more book scatters triggers 10 free spins.

For players seeking to increase their chances of triggering the free spins, there’s an optional book respin mode that can be activated by doubling the total bet. With this feature, landing two books grants an additional respin, providing one more opportunity to find the final scatter needed to enter the free spins round.

Once the bonus round is activated, players are presented with a book that reveals a random symbol to expand throughout the feature. These expanding mystery symbols can stretch to fill their entire column, leading to pay-line wins. Importantly, the symbols do not need to be adjacent to each other to award a payout. Furthermore, landing three more book scatters during the feature not only grants 10 additional free spins but also introduces another expanding mystery symbol.

Adding to the excitement, SwinttPremium slot shoguns can enjoy the return of the studio’s popular Risk feature. This optional mini-game can be activated after any winning spin, prompting players to correctly guess the colour of a hidden playing card to double their current prize. Multiple Risk rounds are available until an incorrect pick is made or the maximum prize is won.

Commenting on the release of Samurais Pleasure, David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “This month, Swintt is inviting all honourable slot shoguns to come and walk the warrior’s path with us in our new Samurais Pleasure slot – an exciting addition to our Premium line-up that once again includes free spins with expanding mystery symbols.”

“Laid out in a 5×3 reel matrix with 10 fixed paylines, Samurais Pleasure boasts the pick-up-and-play appeal of a classic land-based slot machine coupled with the huge payout potential of 5,000x maximum wins, making it the ideal choice for players who enjoy medium volatility and frequent hits.”
