You would think that a zombie plague and video slots don’t mix, but developers at Ganapati thought otherwise. In the end, they ended up creating a thrilling anime-themed game, with five reels and plenty of aptly styled symbols populating the reels. Playable from $0.20, this February 2020 release offers plenty of exciting and potentially lucrative features, aimed to help you claim as much cash as you can grab while wandering the streets of zombie-infested Tokyo. You’ll encounter Wilds, Scatters, multipliers, a Free Spins bonus round, and the Boss Battle feature, where you’ll be able to earn additional winnings, spin and other neat awards.
The game is set in one of the districts of Tokyo, with the reels set against the view of the bustling metropolis. Samurai Girl comes with a reel set consisting of 5 reels and 3 rows, offering a total of 20 fixed paylines, paying from left to right starting from the reel furthest to the left. To start getting payouts is rather simple: all you need to do is to get at least 3 matching symbols on a payline. When it comes to wagering, players will be able to place any stake ranging from $0.20 to $50 per spin.
Samurai Girl is a nicely-animated slot boasting an attractive anime style, with the main protagonist standing next to the grid from the moment the reels start spinning. Located on a wire fence, the reels are populated with Japanese-style symbols, while the game’s immersive soundtrack further adds to the overall excitement. The game features 3 main symbols: Wilds, Scatters and the zombie soul icon. And while we’ve already seen the first two in action, and pretty much are familiar with their role, it’s the zombie symbol that will draw your attention, as it fills the katana sword gauge, triggering the Boss Battle round once it’s full.
Samurai girl boasts a number of thrilling and potentially rewarding bonus features. As usual, Wilds will be able to substitute for all symbols, bar the Scatter, with the Wild Reel feature being especially exciting as it can fill an entire reel with them, significantly increasing the win potential.
When the katana sword gauge is not full, landing 3 or more Scatters will activate the Pandemic Free Spins round. Virus icons will then appear on the reels, revealing the number of spins you’ll receive. However, if the katana sword gauge is full, landing a minimum of 3 Scatters will unlock the Boss Battle round, where the Samurai Girl will face the Evil Shogun.
But that’s not all, as the randomly-triggered Zombie Slash Multiplier can increase your winnings by up to 4x.
We really enjoyed this anime-themed game, as it offered lots of excitement, nice visuals and enough features to keep us entertained, although its RTP of 95% is below average when it comes to available games in the market. The Free Spins round promises to help you scoop neat cash prizes, while the Boss Battle feature is a unique addition to the game. With a bit of luck, and if you play your cards right, you could end up with claiming handsome payouts. Multipliers are something we enjoy seeing in action.
