Geisha's Revenge Slot Review

The Geisha’s Revenge Slot Game

This PG Soft slot title is widely accessible and supports iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS, and Web HTML5. According to the developer, renowned gambling authorities have rigorously tested and dual-certified it.

Geisha’s Revenge takes you through Ayane’s life as a fictional renowned geisha driven by a fierce desire for vengeance after a ruthless samurai brutally slaughtered her family. Going by the backstory, you already know this game takes you to the Asian side.

The background is blurry, as is usually the case with slots from this developer. However, you can see a Japanese-style temple covered in what appears like snow, corresponding to the fact that the game was released in December.

Meanwhile, the centralized reels are easy to follow, and the control panel is easily accessible. Occasional voice-overs and an ambient melody enhance the game’s oriental design.

Symbols and Payouts

This slot’s simplicity extends to the paytable, which only includes eight basic-paying symbols, a wild, and a scatter. During payout evaluations, some symbols may occupy 2 to 4 reel positions, representing a single symbol.

Due to the dynamic nature of the reel positions, the game can have 240-6,480 ways! The ways win if the matching symbols are in succession from the furthest left column to the right.

After the payout of every round, the winning symbols explode. Then, the symbols above the exploded ones cascade down for a new round. The cascades continue as long as no more winning combinations can be hit.

It’s also worth noting that all the Geisha’s Revenge wins are in cash. The low-paying oriental-designed J and Q pay 1x, 2x, and 3x, while the K and A are worth 2x, 3x, and 5x.

On the other hand, the premiums are the Kunai and Wooden Japanese Sandals, worth 3x, 5x, and 10x. Then, the Umbrella awards 5x, 10x, and 10x, while Ayane (Geisha) pays 10x, 15, and 20x. Note that all the symbols form wins with 3+ of the same!

The Wild only hits on reels 2 to 5 but doesn’t award wins. Instead, it substitutes for all regular symbols. Meanwhile, the Scatter can hit anywhere and may trigger the bonus game.

Geisha’s Revenge Slot Bonus Features

You only depend on the multiplier windows and free spins for advanced winning chances. But don’t be fooled by the scarcity of features, as the game can award up to 5,000x stake!

Multiplier Windows

At the beginning of the main game spin, the multiplier windows on the left of reel one will be inactive. Any winning symbols on rows 1, 2, 3, 4, and/or 5 of the leftmost column will activate the respective row’s multiplier window if it’s inactive.

Or, increase the respective row’s multiplier by +2x after wins are paid if the multiplier window is active. Wins will be multiplied by the current total sum of the multipliers at the end of the spin.

Free Spins Feature

Strike 3 scatters anywhere on the Geisha’s Revenge reels to trigger 10 free spins. Meanwhile, every extra scatter will trigger +2 more free spins! The multiplier windows on the left will be inactive at the start of the free spins.

The multiplier windows function similarly to the base game during the bonus game. However, the multiplier in the multiplier windows will remain until the end of the feature. It’s also noteworthy that the free spins are non-retriggerable.

How to Win at Geisha’s Revenge Slot  

You play on 5 columns, with the leftmost reel having 5 rows while the rest have 6. A bonus multiplier window is on the left side of the first reel.

Meanwhile, the game uses 240 to 6,480 ways to win if the winning symbols are in succession from the leftmost reel to the right on 3+ positions. Afterwards, the cascades remove the winning symbols, potentially triggering multiple wins per spin.

Geisha’s Revenge accepts €0.60 to €180 bets.

So, if your playing budget allows, set a preferred amount and hit the spinning Action button to play once. Otherwise, you can avoid manually starting each game by enabling several auto-spins.

The Turbo icon changes the slot reel speeds, while the Menu button lets you access the paytable, rules, and sound settings.

Geisha’s Revenge Slot RTP & Volatility

The maximum amount you can win in this game is 5,000x the bet. Furthermore, it has medium volatility, translating to a moderate winning frequency and an above-average theoretical RTP of 96.81%.

The Final Thoughts

It had been a while since PG Soft created an Asian-inspired slot. So, it’s nice to play another game based on an oriental theme. This time, the gameplay revolved around a girl destined to avenge her family’s murder. And the objective is for you to help her in her mission while trying your luck for wins.

I expected a lot of action from the storyline in Geisha’s Revenge, but I soon realised it was wishful thinking. In short, its gameplay had a few features, packed as cascades, multiplier windows, and free spins. So, I couldn’t help but wonder how easy it was to unlock the maximum win of 5,000x bet, considering there isn’t much to work with.

On the slot’s brighter side, it has up to 6,480 dynamic ways to win, thereby giving you higher winning odds than usual slots. Further, the design team did a splendid job with the graphics and sounds, making them immersive and high quality. However, I would have preferred a clearer backdrop than a blurred one.

After weighing the slot’s strengths and weaknesses, I don’t think it would be quality for a hit release. But that doesn’t mean it’s not playable.
