Introduction

Sailor Girls is a Japanese anime-themed online slot from Slot Factory, the developer of Casino Nile and A Spinfull of Dollars. This cartoon-styled slot game has five reels, three rows and a massive 243 paylines. The major symbols within the game are the eponymous sailor girls, with other symbols including combs, hair slides, perfume and other such beauty accessories.

Features include a free spin bonus in which multiple iterations of the major symbols are added to the reels to provide the chance to win big.

As with any other online slot, it is recommended that you have a go at demo play before staking real money on a spin of the reels at an online casino. You can play this Slot Factory slot demo right here at Slots Temple to experience the full gameplay, including the bonus features, without paying for the privilege.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

The Japanese anime styling of this game is well realised, with sprites - and the game name - owing an obvious debt of gratitude to the Sailor Moon series. The symbols and the background are all created with this particular Japanese style, with the characters all rendered thoughtfully to conform.

The graphics are basic but definitely in keeping with the theme. There are no animations to the sprites other than a basic flashing border that appears around winning symbols when a win is achieved from a spin. It would have been nice to see more detail put into this aspect of the game, but it will certainly help the gameplay if players are using mobile data or have limited bandwidth on their home internet connection.

The soundtrack is a generic retro anime theme, which is quite pleasing to the ear. The sound effects fit with the soundtrack without detracting from the music, especially when scatter symbols appear on the first two reels. The win jingle that sounds when a big win is achieved also emphasises the sense of occasion.

Sailor Girls RTP & volatility

Sailor Girls is a medium volatility online slot, which means the gameplay should be balanced enough to keep players interested. Specific RTP figures are not available for Sailor Girls; however, titles with this level of volatility often have a long-term average RTP of around 96 per cent.

How to play Sailor Girls

1. As with all online slots that are new to a player, the first port of call should be the paytable. This details the win amounts that are available when a winning combination of symbols appears on the reels and shows how the bonus features are activated. To access the paytable, click the menu button to the bottom left of the screen, then click the 'i' on the left of the screen.

2. To change the bet level, click the menu button to the bottom left of the screen, then click the money bag on the left-hand side.

3. Autoplay is available on this game and has a simple on/off setting. To access autoplay, click the plus button to the left of the reel spin button, then select the plane icon. To stop autoplay, simply click the reel spin button again.

4. Each spin can be sped up by clicking the turbo button. This is found by clicking on the plus icon to the left of the reel spin button and then clicking the rocket ship icon.

5. If you are happy with all settings, a spin can be triggered manually by clicking the spin button to the right of the screen.

6. Play Sailor Girls responsibly, always setting a budget for each session and sticking to it. When the fun stops, stop playing.

Bet sizes & paytable wins

The bet level for each spin in Sailor Girls is set at 50 coins. The value of each coin can be set from 0.01 to 1.00, meaning that each spin will cost between 0.50 to 50.00.

- Matching five blonde winking sailor girls on any of the 243 paylines returns 500x the coin value.
- Matching five brunette sailor girls will return 300x the coin value.
- The other sailor girls return between 200x and 100x the coin value if five are revealed on a payline.
- Minor symbols will return 20x the coin value if five are revealed.

Paylines basically work on a column basis. If a symbol is present in consecutive columns from left to right, this will be counted. Wins are paid for matching three to five symbols.

Sailor Girls bonus features

- Free spins

Revealing three to five scatter or wild symbols across the reels will access the free spin feature. This triggers six spins, during which players can select from a range of generous options that put more iterations of the high-level symbols on the reels.

The free spin options range from adding 88 of the top-value sailor girl to the reels to adding 128 of the lowest value. This should dramatically increase your chance of winning big during the free spins.

Wins during the free spins are stacked and awarded once all the free spins are used up.

Overall review: our verdict

This is a great game with the potential for some big wins, even if the graphics are a little on the basic side.
