Game theme in Ronin’s Honour slot

In this slot, we meet a female 'ronin'. A ronin is a samurai who has cut all ties with their clan and master. They are independent, fierce, brave, and usually have a point to prove. She also happens to be called Ronin. The game starts with an animation that tells the story thus far. A witch named Hannya killed Ronin's father, and Ronin is now bent on revenge. In addition to this conflict between Ronin and Hannya, the general theme of the game is the ancient art of the samurai. 

Graphics in the Ronin’s Honour slot

The graphic style of the game has been influenced by manga-style illustration, with the imagery incredibly detailed and beautiful. The iconography includes classic Japanese motifs, such as the red temple that holds the reels and the blossom in the background. High-paying winning symbols include a dagger, shuriken, and a kusarigama (ball on a chain). The low-paying symbols are the usual playing cards.

Ronin's Honour bonuses 

This game is packed with bonuses, which are in play throughout the base game and free spins:

Wilds

There are two wild symbols in this game, Ninja wilds and Hannya wilds. Both wilds substitute for all symbols except the scatter symbol or the mask.

Mystery masks

When a mystery mask appears, it will either reveal a pay symbol or a Ninja wild. If more than one mystery mask appears, all masks will reveal the same symbol. The pay symbol may be split one or two times, with split symbols creating more potential ways to win. If the Ninja wild appears, it will expand to cover the entire reel. Each Ninja wild can then split up to nine times. 

Free spins

This feature is triggered when players land three or more of the scatter symbol in the base game. During the free spins bonus, Hannya will attempt to block Ronin, who will try to split wilds with her sword. They each have three lives and every time Ronin splits a wild, Hannya loses a life; every time Hannya blocks Ronin, Ronin will lose a life. The free spins continue until someone loses all their lives, up to a max of 200 spins; however, if Hannya loses all her lives, you get an extra free spin. 

Landing three Ninja wilds in the free spins feature will trigger a special Hannya free spin. This is an extra free spin with a guaranteed win. At the end of the free spins feature, the total win is paid out.
