Densho Slot Review

The word for owl in Japanese is fukurō which means “without hardship.” That’s a pretty cool way to describe those big-eyed eerie killers that waft about on soundless feathers. 🦉

You never seem to come across owls looking Amy Winehouse-haggard, so clearly they’re living the good life, which is probably why owls became a symbol not only for wisdom but good fortune, too. 💰

I’d rather worship an owl than kiss a cod and take a shot of Screech rum, if we’re comparing customs. I kid you not; that’s a practice they follow in Newfoundland. Google it if you don’t believe me! 💋🐟

What’s with all this owl talk anyway? Well, it’s one of the symbols you’ll find in Densho slot from Hacksaw. Let’s check it out.

Gameplay

Ah, Hacksaw – you make my design-loving heart soar! Densho slot is a literal work of art that elevates the game above the usual Egyptian/Viking malarky we’re so used to seeing.

And as for how this game looks on a mobile device 😍 Sweet baby Yoda. This game is my favorite one to play on the go as it’s stunning but also functional. Two thumbs up from me! 👍🏻👍🏻

Moving onto the stats, we find 10 paylines, an RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. of 96.40%, and a medium to high volatility rate. But check it out: the max multiplier is an earth-shaking 10,000x which means that the top prize is a life-changing €250,000.

You can play with any fiat currency you like, but sadly crypto is a no-go.

The high-paying symbols are the arty, red-infused bridge, stork, owl, geisha, and samurai. The three mountains symbol is the Wild – it kinda forms a “W” I guess – and it replaces all paying symbols.

Features

WILD MULTIPLIER REELS:

Look out for the Densho symbol – these are black birds against a pale blue background. These symbols will expand into Multiplier Reels if by doing so the reels can be part of at least one winning combination.

Multiplier Reels are Wild and the symbols replace all other paying ones as well as applying a multiplier value to each winning combo they’re a part of.

If more than one Multiplier Reel is involved in a single win, their multipliers will be added and then applied to the winning amount.

Multiplier values are dependent on the Densho symbol type and could be 2x to 10x for the Common Densho, 5x to 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, or 50x for the Rare Densho, or 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, or 100x for the Legendary Densho.

So, how do you tell them apart? Simple. Look for how many black spots are on the symbol – they range from 1 to 3, where 3 is the Legendary version.

FREE SPINS:

Landing 3 Free Spin Scatters in the base game triggers this feature (the symbol looks like two fishes yinging and yanging).

You’ll notice progress meters above the reels in the feature – those indicate the level of Densho symbols that could land (there are 3 dots representing the three types of symbols as I mentioned a little earlier).

You can land Upgrade symbols, too – in the form of a crucifix-type thing – and hitting one will level up the progress meter and the subsequent Densho symbol that lands on that reel.

Free Spins can be re-triggered: 2 more Scatters get you an additional 2 spins, while 3 more Scatters award 4 more spins.

SUPER FREE SPINS:

Now, if you land 4 Scatters simultaneously during the base game, that gets you into the Super Free Spins round and you’ll be gifted 10 spins. Everything is the same as before except that the progress meter starts on level 2.

BUY BONUS:

You’ve got 4 options to choose from:

Just a word of warning: the first two options remain on until you deactivate them. Keep that in mind, or you’ll run up one helluva bill.

Performance

I played hundreds of spins while testing Densho slot and it was flawless throughout.

Maximum Win

Place your bets from as little as €0.10 up to €25, and if you catch the strapping 10,000x max multiplier at the largest bet, that’ll mean a win worth €250,000.

Conclusion

Densho slot is an easy game to get to grips with, making it a good option for newbies who feel ready to take on a game with a medium to high volatility rate.

It’s easily one of the better-looking games and that means the mobile experience is sublime. You’re spoilt for choice with the Buy Bonus options, although Super Free Spins ain’t cheap but the regular Free Spins cost the same as in almost every other game.

I had some decent success with the Densho Featurespins Buy Bonus option; landing decent multipliers and triggering Free Spins as I went along. But that’s just my experience – don’t hold me to it.
