The Zhanshi online slot by Realtime Gaming features a Japanese theme with samurai warriors and other related symbols on the reels. You'll see a wall with houses and buildings on the other side, as if you were part of a siege on the city. You can see broken arrows, chariot wheels and bags of gold all around the screen, and while this battle is going on, you can try to turn up the volume on some serious profits on the reels to hit it big.

Game Format

The format of this slot is about as typical as it gets with five reels and three rows. There are 20 paylines spread across the reels, and in typical RTG fashion, you'll be able to place bets ranging from $0.20 to $5 per spin. This is like betting anywhere from $0.01 to $0.25 on each reel, and that's the usual range for games from this software provider. All 25 of the paylines are locked, so you don't have to worry about accidentally turning some of them off and losing out with a lower RTP.

Warrior Wild Symbols

The warrior is the one symbol you'll want to look out for the most on the reels. He is wild, and he shows up on every one of the five reels. The top jackpot in the game is when you get five wilds on an activated payline for a 10,000x win. If you get five, however, you'll most certainly hit other wins as well because of the way the paylines cross over each other. Four wilds will earn 2,500x, still a sizable win that's larger than the top payout on many games. You can also pick up 500x for three, 25x for two or 2x for just one of a kind. This means you're always getting paid for a wild on the first reel.

Other Payouts

The horse is pretty important because it will give you 5,000x for five of a kind and 1,000x for four of a kind. The 1,250x payout for five of the flag symbol is sizable as well, and you can earn 800x for five of the sword or five of the shield. It's critical to point out that the horse, flag, sword and shield all pay for as few as two of a kind, and that lowers the volatility of the game and adds quite a bit to the hit-rate.

To round out the pays, there are also A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 symbols. The A and K pay 400x for five, and the Q and J pay 250x when you get five on an activated payline. The 200x win for five of the 10 or 9 is sizable as well. All six of these symbols need at least three of a kind to win.

Scatters and Two Free Spin Features

The scattered temple pays based on the size of your total bet. Five scatters gets you a win worth 500 times your total wager, which is just like a 10,000x line bet win, tying for the largest payout in the game. If you get three or more, you trigger one of the two bonus features.

Three or more scatters, anywhere on the reels, give you a set of 10 free spins. You get a 2x multiplier during these free spins, and you get a chance to re-trigger the free spins with three or more of the warrior plus temple symbols. That means one warrior and two temples, two warriors and one temple or even just three warriors, anywhere on the reels, will re-trigger the feature.

Another way to get free spins is through the warrior symbol. Get three or more anywhere on the reels to pick up somewhere between 15 and 25 free turns. The temple symbols become warriors or horses during this feature, which makes combinations of the top symbols easier to get, and you get a great 3x multiplier on top of all of that. It's clear that the bonus features are an important part of this game, and you can get wins worth up to 20,000x in one and 30,000x in the other, so it's clear that there are some major wins up for grabs.

Our Thoughts

A lot of games have been made based on Asian themes, particularly that of samurai warriors, so Realtime Gaming had their work cut out for them in making sure this game stood out. They did a fairly good job with it between the strong graphics and the multiple bonus features. Add in the typical progressive jackpot (worth at least $1,000) that RTG is known for, and you have a fairly balanced overall experience that players will get a lot out of.

Overall, this is a very solid game that shows that Realtime Gaming is capable of moving past their previous reputation for generic, cookie-cutter titles that had poor graphics. If you're a fan of fast-paced action and lots of chances for massive wins in free spins, then this is a game you'll be a fan of.
