Where to play
The ‘Densho bird’ is the inspiration for this slot, which you can play for real money using a good slots app. You will receive a welcome bonus when you sign up and make a deposit. The bet range is from $0.10 to $100, and the max win is 10,000x your stake. There is also various bonus buy options.
Symbols
High-earning symbols in the slot are a geisha, samurai, temples, and an owl. A mountain wild symbol replaces all other symbols except the koi fish scatter.
At the top of each reel, you will see a progression meter, which determines which type of Densho bird symbol will land – a common, rare, or legendary one. Only one Densho symbol can land per reel. The Densho symbols have one to three circles on them to indicate their level. If you land an upgrade symbol, it highlights an extra circle on the progression tracker above the reel the symbol lands on. The progression tracker doesn’t reset between spins.
Expanding multiplier wild reels
If you want to make extra money on the side, the expanding multiplier wild reels will give you more opportunities to win. You don’t have to wait for free spins to activate them. The three Densho bird symbols can create a win by expanding. The reel becomes wild and has a multiplier of at least 2x, depending on which Densho bird lands. The expanding multiplier reels operate in both the base game and the free spins feature.
Free spins feature
When looking at new slot releases, it helps to find ones that offer plenty of free spins. In this slot, you must land three or more Koi fish scatters to activate 10 or more free spins. Landing two or three Koi fish scatters activates additional free spins.
If you land four Koi fish symbols, you activate 10 Super Free Spins, and the progression meters start with two circles highlighted. The minimum quality Densho bird that can land is the rare one with a minimum multiplier value of 5x.
