Matsuri Introduction
Matsuri is a colourful free pokies game from the innovative developers at MultiSlot, and it’s based around the culture of countries such as Japan and China. Featuring symbols such as the geisha, cherry blossom and pagoda temples, this is a game that will draw you into the atmosphere of the Far East, while giving many opportunities to win great prizes.
Matsuri is the word in Japanese that means holiday or festival, and playing this game will ensure you have a wonderful time!
How to play
Matsuri is a game with five reels, three rows and up to 25 alluring paylines. The aim of the game is to line up matching combinations of symbols on the reels to collect big payouts. For example, gather five cherry blossom symbols and the player will receive a 1000x payout on their total wager.
If the deities of good fortune are smiling your way and send you a great win, you can share the news with friends and followers on Twitter using the Tweet button in the top right hand corner.
Modern and easy
Although many of the Matsuri symbols, such as the wooden boat, come from a different age, the game itself uses the most up to date technology. Most things you need for playing the game are right there on the screen. When you look at the screen, you will see a number of tabs and buttons along the bottom. At the right is the Spin button, which is the one to click on to set the game in motion.
In the middle is the button marked Lines, and clicking on this will adjust how many paylines are in play. Above this are three small tabs that display what the wager is per spin, what the win for the most recent spin totalled, and how many credits the player has left. At the left is the Payouts button, and clicking on this takes you to more information about what the symbols are worth.
Roaring Wilds
The Wild symbol is the golden lion and when he pads into position on the reels, this symbol will substitute for all others except the Scatter, to give the player more chances to win. The Wild is also an auspicious sign of prosperity, as collecting five of them could lead to a payout of 5000x your total bet.
Tasty Scatters
The Scatter symbol is the tempting bowl of rice. Rice, of course, features heavily in Chinese and Japanese menus and is considered an important part of the diet in that part of the world. Here it is an important part of winning free spins and extra prizes. The free spins bonus feature is activated when there are three or more bowls of rice on the reels.
Three bowls result in a satisfying five free spins for the player, four bowls of rice mean a delicious bonus round of 15 extra spins for the player, and for five bowls of rice, the player receives a decadent free banquet of 25 bonus spins.
