Three things to watch

  1. Add fish values before the Samurai lands

    Bonus fish can carry between 2x and 2,000x. Calculate the visible amount first, then confirm that the Samurai Wild arrives in the same result to collect it.

  2. Recognise the empty-board transformation

    When a Samurai lands without money symbols, other icons may change into fish. Judge the rescue by the values created and paid, not by the transformation animation.

  3. Count qualifying Wilds in groups of four

    Every fourth collected Samurai adds ten turns and advances the bonus multiplier from 2x to 3x and then 10x. Ordinary warrior artwork does not advance it.

Our take

A money collector with a useful response when its Samurai arrives to an empty board

Samurai Code turns ordinary fish into the central bonus currency on a 5×4, 12-payline grid. Three to five Scatters award as many as 20 Free Spins. Fish then receive values from 2x to 2,000x, and the male Samurai works as both a Wild and a collector for every amount visible in the same turn. When he arrives without money, the feature can transform other symbols into fish, repairing the missing half of the pairing. Every fourth collected Samurai adds ten Free Spins and advances the collection multiplier through 2x, 3x and 10x stages. Pragmatic Play lists 96.08% RTP, medium volatility and a 4,000x maximum. The appeal comes from clear visible roles: fish hold value, the Samurai converts it, transformed boards rescue empty events and the four-Wild ladder extends play. The limitations are equally visible. A large fish can miss the collector, a transformation can create modest values, and several Wilds may be needed before the first multiplier upgrade. The reviewed RTP and maximum are moderate rather than headline-leading. This game suits players who enjoy collection bonuses but want a little protection against empty collector spins. It will feel repetitive to anyone already tired of the four-collector retrigger formula. In the demo, classify each Samurai event as populated, transformed or empty, then record its ladder position. That produces a far more accurate impression than judging one spectacular money fish.

How it plays

What happens when you spin

A Scatter-triggered feature changes fish into cash, uses a Samurai Wild to collect them and advances a repeating four-collector ladder with extra turns and multipliers.

Twelve paylines cross the five-by-four grid

Matches follow fixed patterns and the male Samurai substitutes as a Wild. Fish are ordinary symbols until Free Spins assign them money values.

Three to five Scatters award the feature

The trigger count determines the initial turn award up to 20, creating the starting runway before any four-Wild retrigger is reached.

Samurai Wilds collect every cash fish

Money values range from 2x to 2,000x and are paid together whenever the collector lands. A lonely Samurai may transform other symbols into fish.

Four Wilds extend and multiply the round

Every fourth collected Samurai adds ten Free Spins and advances the collection multiplier through its published 2x, 3x and 10x stages.

The warrior repairs an empty arrival

A collector without fish can create the values it needs

The transformation does not guarantee a strong total, but it gives a precise fallback to the feature’s most frustrating failed pairing.
