Silent samurai jackpot

Many slot players love games inspired by the Asian culture or Japan’s historical samurai warriors and geisha entertainers, and software provider Playtech has introduced several releases with this theme. Silent Samurai is a 5-reel, 9-line video slot which has several bonus features and the most fascinating one is, undoubtedly, the constantly increasing progressive jackpot.
Playtech’s Samurai-themed slot is an entertaining and richly detailed game which has a strangely vintage feel and nice animations that focus on Medieval Japan. The symbols on the reels include a proud Japanese warrior, a beautiful geisha, a shuriken star, and a golden statue of a dragon. Even the playing card icons resemble the unique characters of Japanese calligraphy. The reels come in the classic 5×3 grid and players can activate up to 9 pay lines, which increases their chances for triggering the bonus game for the Dragon Jackpot. The game allows bets from 0.01 to 450 credits per spin by adjusting the coin denomination and the line bet.
Special Symbols
Silent Samurai features several lower value symbols in the form of playing cards from Ten to Ace. The higher paying icons are only two and they include a Japanese coin and a shuriken star. You can get a payout for all these if you receive at least three matching symbols on an active pay line. Two of the special symbols also come with their own payouts.
The Wild in the game is the golden dragon statue and it replaces all basic symbols in winning combinations. You will need 2 or more Wilds on a line to form a winning combination. For a Scatter payout, however, you have to get at least three Scatter symbols represented as the geisha. As it is a Scatter, it does not have to appear on any particular pay line – you simply need 3 or more geisha icons to land anywhere on the reels to receive a payout.
There is one more special symbol in this slot and this is the samurai himself who serves as the Bonus symbol. It triggers the game’s main bonus feature when it appears on reels 1 and 5 simultaneously.
