Ninja Ways bonus features
Ninja Ways is set in a Japanese street that’s lit up for the night, with gorgeous, intricate buildings looking their best. All the symbols are presented with an Asian-inspired design, reminiscent of that area’s calligraphy.
We can see the A to 10 royal values appearing and these are the lower value symbols. Ninja-themed items like nunchucks, throwing knives and stars appear as higher value symbols. The ‘N’ symbol is the most generous, paying out eight times the stake when 6 appear on a payline.
Wilds
The Wild symbol is fairly evident – it’s the one with the word ‘Wild’ on it! It can replace any other symbol on the reels except the Scatter. There is a second type of Wild available, which becomes active during the next feature we will be talking about.
Ninja Features
There are three features in Ninja Ways that can be triggered at random on any spin. These can help boost the value of a round in different ways.
- Ninja Door: The Ninja appears and opens up a mysterious portal. This will introduce a Mega Symbol to the reels, which can be either 2×2, 3×3 or 4×4 in size. The payout is then recalculated.
- Ninja Wilds: The Ninja does his ninja moves around the reels, leaving special Multiplier Wilds (with the Ninja’s face on them) in his wake. These Wilds can have multiplier factors of up to x8
- Ninja Ways: The Ninja leaps across the reels and leaves a trail of identical symbols behind him. Once he’s done, the payout is calculated again, taking the new symbols into consideration
Ninja Ways Free Spins
The free spins Scatter symbols are responsible for launching this feature – a player must land 5 in order to trigger it. Each Scatter awards a different number of free spins so the amount the player receives will vary.
At least one of the three random features we listed above will be triggered on every free spin, though it’s possible to trigger all three at once. This significantly boosts the payout potential, particularly if the multiplier Wilds are in play.
Ninja Ways jackpot
The Ninja Ways slot does not include a jackpot feature.
RTP
Ninja Ways has an RTP of 96.03% and high variance. This is another thing (aside from the theme) that this slot has in common with its sibling Flaming Fox.
Ninja Ways Mobile
Take this amazing game with you wherever your ninja adventures lead. Ninja Ways is fully mobile compatible and can be played on iPhone, iPad or Android devices.
