Push Gaming’s Samurai’s Katana adds cyberpunk edge to classic features

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming has taken inspiration from one of its many successful legacy titles to reinvigorate nudging wilds using a cyberpunk theme in its latest slot, Samurai’s Katana.

Putting its own unique take on a trending subgenre of science fiction, the lowlife and high-tech concept leans on the strong performance of Tiki Tumble, evolving the gameplay that proved such a hit with players following the game’s original release.

Samurai’s Katana refreshes the nudging wilds mechanic popularised by Tiki Tumble, adding instant prizes and a Gamble scatter symbol to the gameplay on offer.

Played across 5×4 reels and 20 winlines, the dystopian theme sees cyborg killers wield tech-imbued weapons allied with the ancient skills of the samurai.

A futuristic neon-soaked city landscape is the background for the game board which is home to an array of tech-inspired symbols. The audio effects match the sci-fi visuals, creating an immersive cyberpunk experience that further augments Push Gaming’s portfolio of thematic hits.

Anastasiia Mysan, game producer at Push Gaming, said: “Samurai’s Katana has allowed us to develop a fresh take on popular gameplay features married to a hot theme. 

“The addition of instant prizes that pay both ways when forming at least three-of-a-kind matching combinations with wilds is key to the experience. 

“We think slot enthusiasts will adore the free spins which allows players to climb to a high multiplier in very few spins and continue the game after its conclusion by landing more wild stacks.”
