Shougen War Slot Machine
You can become your very own commander when you play Shougen War, a slot machine based on the traditional hierarchy of feudalism in the Japanese military during the 19th century. Although that sounds very stuffy for a casino game, you get all the fun of the Spade Gaming brand without a dull exploration into the past, making this the ideal gaming companion.
Bringing in the fun, Shougen War has up to 50 paylines for you to activate during each of your playthroughs, as well as 5 reels in which a series of 12 symbols will appear, their appearance made all the sweeter by the wild icon. Although the scenery may look bleak and uninviting, this slot machine is far from disappointing. In fact, it’s one of the best the brand has to offer.
Up in the Mountains
For vigorous training purposes, a suitable environment is needed to help hone those destructive and powerful skills, and so a mountain retreat far from civilisation is often the destination of choice.
Here you can breathe deep the fresh air, taking in the wonder and harshness of nature as you explore your own, all under the teachings of a wise but strict commander who has no time for tomfoolery. Learn to battle as good as he and you will soon command your own band of men.
One of the first trials you will have to face is being able to engage the enemy - one wrong move here could spell disaster for both yourselves and the rest of your group. Failure isn’t an option right now, though it never was to begin with.
The Correct Form
Positioning your bet total just right is vital to success with Shougen War because you want to get out the equivalent, or more, of what you put in. Deciding your stake may not be easy, but at least putting it into effect is.
You need to choose what value you would like each of your coins to have, this can be between 0.01 and 1 credit. Following on from here, players then need to determine how many of the coins they wish to place on the winlines, with the most you can ever play being 10, thus giving you a €500 wager.
When you’re dealing with 50 or more paylines, you can risk lowering them to a more suitable amount, say between 20 and 25, arguably the most common format seen in online slot machines. Changing them isn’t necessary though, so feel free to leave them as they are and get right on down to the gaming.
A Raging Shogen
Your commander can do a number of things when he shows up in his various forms along the reels. He can increase the base payout for all of the symbols, except the scatter, and he can help you choose a number of free spins when the scatter round is triggered.
When you line up over three of the scatters, five commanders will line up across the grid, each with a hidden amount of multipliers and free games: select whichever you’d like and watch as your random reward is generated.
Three-Way Jackpot
There is a jackpot sequence to be unlocked during the game, which can only ever occur during the free spins, which makes finding the scatter symbols all that more important. While there is no way of knowing whether you’ll actually discover the jackpot icons during the free waves, you can hope to get a glimpse at greatness.
Three levels are available to you, each of which is determined by how you play the game. The bog standard Metal Jackpot can activate as long as you’re playing with real money, meaning its riches are open up to all players, while the Diamond Jackpot is more picky. This payout demands that users play with the maximum amount of winlines. Then there is the most exclusive of all the final wins, the Crystal Jackpot. This level wants you to have played with the max bet price, which as we all know can reach up to 500 credits!
No End to the War
Normally we’d all be hoping for a war to end, but with Shougen War you want the action to keep on going, your kitty overflowing with gold. Play this slot right and a lot of cash can be coming your way, though if you play it ‘wrong’ and luck abandons you, you still have a fun set of features to work your way towards.
