Pragmatic Play whisks you away to a posh Japanese Sushi bar in its latest release, Running Sushi. Let your taste buds tingle as the conveyor belt serves traditional Japanese sushi, rice laced in vinegar, with seafood, fruit, and vegetables. Each ingredient comes with a cash value collected on every spin in a meter.
About Running Sushi
Running Sushi has 5 reels with 1,024 ways to win. It’s available on desktop and mobile devices from 20p to £240 per spin. The math model is medium volatility with a default RTP of 96.00% and a max win potential of 3,000x the bet.
We head to a posh Japanese restaurant with panelling and rice paper screens, typically seen in Japanese buildings. The reels sit in the centre of the screen, encased in a Japanese-style building, while a conveyor belt runs along the bottom of the reels with different sushi dishes. Each dish contains a cash value. Each time you spin the reels, the next set of dishes emerges with new cash values.
The lower-paying symbols are the card suits, while the top-paying symbols are rice, an avocado, salmon, soy sauce, and hot sauce. The Wild is a gold coin and substitutes for all regular symbols except the special symbols, but I’ll talk about those further on in the review.
Gameplay
Running Sushi has several bonus features, including Wilds, a Take Sushi feature, Free spins, an Ante Bet, and a Buy-in feature.
Wild Symbol
The Wild is a gold coin that substitutes all regular symbols except the Scatter, Take Sushi, and Take All symbols. It only lands on the middle 3 reels during the Free Spins.
Take Sushi Feature
On each spin, between 1 and 10 Money symbols appear beneath the reels, displaying random values between 1x and 1,000x. If a Take Sushi symbols lands on reels 1, 3 and 5 all the values are collected from the money symbols beneath reels. During the Free Spins round, the Money symbols are worth up to 2,500x the bet.
Free Spins
Landing 3 Scatters on a spin awards 10 free spins. During the Free Spins, a Take Out symbol can appear and collects all the money symbols present on the reels in a meter. If you land 3 Take Out symbols, you collect the current value in the meter, plus the money symbols from the current spin.
Ante Bet/Buy In
You double the chances of triggering the Free Spins by choosing the Ante Bet for 25% of your current bet.
85x the bet buys you into the Free Spins feature.
Conclusion
Running Sushi is a charming slot serving up all the favourite sushi dishes you could wish for. Although the features are far from groundbreaking, and the max win is a tad disappointing, it does pack a punch with the features and won’t break the bank if you are on a tight budget. Running Sushi is suitable for players with a taste for the high life while equally suitable for casual players.
