Silent Samurai: Mega Cash Collect Slot by Playtech

The reels don't line up. The outer two columns stand three symbols tall while the middle three run four, so the grid has a stepped, uneven silhouette set against a crimson Mount Fuji sunset, brass lanterns swinging from a timber pagoda gate. Wins pay across 30 fixed lines, left to right, past symbols painted like Japanese woodblock prints, a gold kabuto helmet, lacquered chest armour, turquoise armlets, green katana. But the coins are the point. Gold discs drop carrying values from 0.5x up to 15x the bet, and a blue-and-gold Cash Collect medallion on reel 1 or 5 sweeps up every coin on screen the moment it lands. Two collectors showing? Each coin pays to both.

The Wild is the snarling red oni mask, arriving in stacks two, three or four rows tall and subbing for everything except the coins and collectors. It can bring an added x1, x2 or x3, and piling those multipliers onto one position tops out at x3, no further. Then there's the Samurai, who cuts in on random spins to either drop stacked Wilds, add a coin or a Cash Collect, or raise the value of coins already sitting on the reels. Land a Diamond next to a Cash Collect and one of four fixed prizes is handed out at random: Mini 20x, Minor 50x, Major 200x, Grand 500x. Fixed amounts, repeatable across a session. It's the same ladder Leprechaun's Luck: Mega Cash Collect runs.

Free Games rebuild the board. A Cash Collect on reel 1 or 5 gathers the Free Game coins to start the round, and your spin count is the sum of the +N values on those coins, anything from +1 to +15. A bank of extra reels opens above the main grid, but locked. Landing a Cash Collect with a Sword coin strips one lock away from the bottom up, and clearing the top position leaves a Cash Collect frozen there for the rest of the round. Collectors you land stay put for three spins, five if one drops on that fourth row.

Four symbols live only on the extra reels. Dropping Wilds fires a stack straight down onto the main grid below, or adds a multiplier where a Wild already sits. Cash Spreader scatters random coins across the bank. Sticky Cash freezes and doubles on every collecting spin, 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, then flips into a Diamond. And Random Coin locks for three spins, changing into a different coin or symbol each time. No buy button, no ante, so getting to that top layer is on the base game to deliver. The ceiling sits around 2,926x the bet.
