Super Neko Slot by YGR

Free-spin rounds start at x8. That single number is what separates Super Neko from every other cascade-and-multiplier build in YGR's catalogue. Base spins open at x1 and double through the full ladder (x1, x2, x4, x8, x16, x32, x64, x128, x256, x512, x1,024) with every successful cascade, and the whole 11-step ladder sits permanently on a vertical red paper-lantern rail on the left side of the reel frame. Multiplier resets at the start of each base spin. Inside Free Games the opener is x8, which means the multiplier enters the round three doublings up the ladder and only needs seven more winning cascades to reach the x1,024 ceiling.

Two wild types run the substitution work. The normal Wild fills a single cell. The Expand Wild, when it lands, replaces every non-scatter position on its entire reel with wild symbols - full-reel expansion on one trigger, no win requirement to activate it. Reels 3 and 4 also drop gold-framed versions of the regular pay symbols occasionally. When a gold-framed tile participates in a winning combination, it converts to a wild for that cascade and stays wild for any follow-up cascades, which extends the chain further and feeds the multiplier ladder.

Three or more blue seashell scatters anywhere on the grid trigger 10 free spins, with +2 spins per additional scatter landed in the trigger. Direct entry through the Buy Bonus button on the upper-left corner costs 67x total stake - a cheaper price point than Roma Gems (75x) for a mechanically similar template, with the trade-off that Super Neko drops the Sword Wild tier that Roma Gems runs.

Visual frame is traditional Japanese shrine: an ornate gold-and-red torii gate crowns the reel area, cherry blossom sakura branches drop pink petals on both sides, and dark-wood palace columns frame the reels. A ceramic Maneki-neko statue sits permanently on the right rail with its raised paw holding up a gold 福 fu coin. Symbol set runs red chochin paper lanterns, gold Koban oval coins, red dango sticks, green bamboo cane, gold fu character tiles, and A/Q/J/K card royals at the low tier. Bet range 0.20 to 50.00.
