Sushicade

If you're a fan of games that have themes that are different than anything else out there, then the Sushicade slot, a game available at Ganapati casinos, might be just what you're looking for. It's about sushi, but each piece of sushi is alive and has anime-style features, which looks absolutely hilarious and is very entertaining. On the gameplay side, things are set up to be particularly exciting with lots of ways to get big pays through different types of multipliers. The feature set as a whole is designed for action, which helps to make this game even more interesting.

Game Layout

The base format here uses five vertical reels with three rows of symbols and 25 paylines. However, the betting is centered around 30 coins per spin, and you can change the value of your total bet size without worrying about payline wagers. Bet sizes run from a minimum of $0.30 per spin to $90 at the maximum, and that's a pretty tremendous range that makes sure everyone from penny players to high stakes slot fans can enjoy this game all the same.

We'd like to take this opportunity to warn you about a few problems with the pay table. Sometimes the size of the font on the pay table will change sizes if you adjust the bet size with the pay table open. We're not sure why this happens, and it seems to be a simple styling error, but it's something to beware of since it can render the pay table unreadable until you re-launch the game.

Cascade Feature

Chances are that the first feature that you'll experience in this slot is the cascade feature with multipliers. The way this works is that winning combinations are paid, and then they disappear to give you opportunities for new symbols to fall into place for more payouts. This continues as long as you can pick up new wins, and each subsequent cascade increases the multiplier by one up to a total factor of 6x for all spins five and higher. This is a fun feature that means more opportunities to get multiple payouts and prizes on the same paid spin, and it increases in value even further during the free spins mode.

Free Spins Bonus Round With Multipliers

Three or more of the scatter activates the free spins feature with 10 free spins. During these free spins, the cascade feature is still activated. However, the multiplier is always boosted by a factor of two, so you'll start with a 3x multiplier that increases to 4x and 5x, etc. The maximum multiplier in the free spins mode is 8x, which is two more than the maximum of 6x that you find during the regular mode. This is an interesting way to applying multipliers during free spins for a game with cascading wins that we can't remember having ever seen before, so kudos to Ganapati for having a different spin on things, so to speak.

Sushi Combination Wins and Payouts

There are seven sushi pieces that you need to know about. The piece of sunglasses on and a piece of purple squid gets you 50x for five of a kind based on a bet size of 1.5x. You can also earn 25x for five of the lobster tail with a purple bow winking at the camera. Five of the angry sushi with a piece of fish on its head pays 15x for five of a kind, and five of the smiling sushi with a yellow piece of food strapped onto its head earns 10x.

Three lower-level symbols are available as well. The first uses a green trim and gets 5x. The other two also give you 5x for five of a kind, and they are the one with the orange headphones and the one with the cat ears.

Overview

The cuteness is turned up to ten with the Sushicade slot by Ganapati, especially with the characters they have built into the different symbols. This game isn't a one-trick pony, however, because it also brings players some serious chances to get paid over and over again with the cascade feature and the boosted multipliers that come as a part of the free spins mode. Overall, we like what this game brings to the table on both the visual and gameplay sides of the equation, and we think it's a title that will appeal to a large portion of players.
