Shadow Strike (Backseat Gaming) Slot Demo & Review

If you like the sound of being a super powerful ninja that slashes its way to super big wins, then we have several free slot games you can enjoy here on our platform that will offer you that experience. First, you should try out the Power of Ninja demo slot from Pragmatic Play; a scatter pays game featuring multipliers and a max win of 5,000x bet. If it’s a more fun theme you’re seeking, however, then PG Soft’s Ninja Racoon Frenzy demo is another title worth taking for a few spins that offers a lower level of volatility and a top win of 2,500x.

We already know that Shadow Strike has a much higher max win than both of those releases with its jackpot of 15,000x, but how does it fare with the standard rewards in its pays section? Well, at the top of the paytable, we have the Gold Ninja and the Dragon Wild, which both share a return of 20x the bet for winning combinations of five, with the wild also substituting for all other regular symbols. Following these, we have the Red Ninja worth 10x, with the Green Ninja and Blue Ninja completing the premium pays with equal payouts of 7.5x. Dropping to the lower pays, we have four different weapons coloured Brown, Blue, Green and Red, which all return 2x the bet for a five of a kind win.

Players have a good range of betting options on Shadow Strike, with the minimum standard cost of spinning the reels starting at €0.10 and maxing out at €100.

The Shadow Strike slot game is played on a 5×4 reel configuration with just 14 fixed paylines. For a win to be awarded, a minimum of three matching symbols must land across an active payline starting from the leftmost reel first.

Ninja Reels

Above and below the main playfield are two additional Ninja Reels that are always locked at the start of every base game spin. If the special symbols or scatters appear in any of these positions and can be used, then both rows will open up, and the specific symbols will come into play.

Wild Symbol

When a wild symbol lands on one of the ninja reels, it will create a new wild symbol in a random position on the corresponding reel in the main grid. Furthermore, wilds on the main grid could have a value ranging from 2x to 50x applied to them.

Multisplit Symbol

The multisplit symbol can only appear on the ninja reels, and when they land, they will multiply the the multiplier value of all wild symbols on the corresponding reel in the main grid with the displayed multiplier. The possible MultiSplit multiplier values are: 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x. If a MultiSplit symbol crosses over a Wild that does not have a multiplier value, the multiplier value of the MultiSplit will be added to the
