There’s quite a few tasty morsels on offer in the So Much Sushi mobile slot, but can you handle 25 pieces of sushi in one payline?
Part of the ‘So Much More’ range of Microgaming slots, So Much Sushi, unlike its cousins So Much Candy and So Many Monsters, has a fairly subdued, grown up theme.
There’s nothing silly or quirky here, just beautifully crafted pieces of Sushi that have been drawn to perfection.
But what happens then is that this looks like you’re spinning a Japanese take-out menu. A pretty menu. But hardly exciting when you’re trying to play for wins.
The main selling point of this So Much Sushi slot game is the fact that the 5 highest paying symbols can ‘split’.
So say you get 3 California roll symbols on a payline. One symbol could split into 2, another into 4, and the final one into 3. In total, that’s a 9 symbol win!
The most these symbols can split into is 5, so the maximum win is a 25 symbol win on a single payline. Thing is though, because of this, unless you get anything close to 9 or 10 symbols or above, the wins are not particularly impressive.
That said, the plus point is that the top win of 664 times your bet could happen at any time.
But, of course, it is easier to get bigger wins during the free spins. Because unlike games like Thunderstruck or Avalon, where you get a multiplier, with the So Much Sushi video slot Microgaming have given these bonus games a twist.
Basically, you’ll choose one of the top 5 high paying symbol to replace all the other high paying symbol; giving you more chance at getting wins and more split symbols.
We’ve had mixed results choosing the symbols, but the free spins come often enough that even if you only end up with 20 or 30 times your bet, you get another chance soon enough.
Personally, though we love sushi, we didn’t love the theme. But if you like the look of it, you could add one star to this mobile slot review.

Wilds: The So Much Sushi slot logo is the wild symbol and replaces all other symbols except scatter.
Scatters and Free Spins: Get 3 or more soya sauce scatter symbols anywhere on the screen and you'll trigger a second screen bonus.
Here you'll pick one sushi symbol to replace all the others. The higher value the piece of sushi, the less free spins you get, but the more you can win.
We found that we got our best luck with 12 or 14 free spins, though of course, if you want to win big, you'll have to be braver.
That said, this mobile video slot is all about the easy spins, so keeping to somewhere near the middle is a pretty safe bet.
The So Much Sushi mobile slot has a few unique features that shows plenty of brilliance from Microgaming.
However, a poor theme and the frustration at needing so many symbols to get a win, means you'll rarely find yourself playing the So Much More series for very long.
We prefer it when you can really invest your time and effort in a game, like in the Thunderstrick II or Playboy slots.
Still, the free spin feature does make So Much Sushi very playable.
