Shogun Bots Slot Game | Spinomenal Slots

Shogun Bots is a Japanese mafia-inspired video slot from a game developer called Spinomenal. It was released in 2017 and is built around a 5-reel, 3-row format. There are 15 fixed paylines, although, like many of the software provider’s games, Shogun Bots uses a win-both-ways mechanic. This means that wins are paid from both left to right and right to left.

Shogun Bots has an above-average RTP of 96.01%, and the minimum bet is just 0.15 credits per spin. The maximum bet is generous at 150 credits per spin, and these betting options should cater to the vast majority of players.

In terms of design, there isn’t a huge amount going on in Shogun Bots – and the game is basically just black. However, more effort has gone into developing the game’s symbols, which are split into low-value and higher-paying. The low-value symbols include playing card values, including 10, jack, queen, king, and ace. These pay between 30X and 60X for a 5-of-a-kind combo.

The game’s higher-paying symbols are a bit more lucrative – and, again, there are five of them in total. They are all characters dressed in black and pay between 80X and 100X your stake for a 5-of-a-kind combo.

Despite being based around a medium variance math model, Shogun Bots actually offers some pretty impressive win potential. On a single spin, you can win up to 15,000X your stake – and this is great, especially for a Spinomenal slot!

Game Features

Shogun Bots has two bonuses and features: one main feature and one smaller, in-game bonus round. The latter is the wild multiplier.

Wild Symbols can land anywhere on the reels during the base game (and, indeed, the main free spins bonus round). Each wild has a multiplier of 2X, 5X, or 10X attached to it. When one of these multiplier wilds lands in view and forms part of a win, the total value of the win will be multiplied by the multiplier shown.

The main free spins bonus round is triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols anywhere in view. Doing so will award you a payout of 3X your bet and 10 free spins. The free spins are played on the same set of reels as the base game – and the wild multipliers continue to appear. Despite the lack of additional features, it is possible to re-trigger the free spins by landing another 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols anywhere in view.

There doesn’t appear to be a limit on the number of times that you can re-trigger the bonus round – so you can keep winning more free spins indefinitely.
