Feel the joy of a true Japanese festival in this Matsuri mobile slot full of pretty scatters and effective wilds.
Our japanese isn’t the best, but from our understanding, the word Matsuri can mean any form of festival.
In the case of this Play’n Go mobile phone slot, we celebrate the long Summer nights, overlooking the water, a never ending sky, and pretty lights from the far away town.
In other words, this is a gorgeous looking Asian themed slot, with unique symbols that make spinning this casino game a joy.
So lets head straight for what makes this game so truly joyous; the Matsuri slot free spin games.
For one, re-triggering the free spins is ridiculously easy; you just need one scatter and you’ll automatically get an extra 2 free spins, like in the Pimped slot.
However, the maximum amount that you can trigger is 20 free spins; which we’ve done often enough to know it’s not impossible. In fact, it’s more likely than not.
The reason for that are the expanding walking wilds, which walk from the right to the left of the screen on each spin, creating a firework of wins.
However, we have to come down from our little cloud nine to bring you some hard news about this pretty little Japanese festival.
Matsuri slot has an edge we weren’t expecting; namely the fact that you can win 3,000 times your bet on any spin, and 500 times your bet in the click me goldfish bonus.
Why is that the edge? Because the entry cost to this festival can be expensive if you don’t catch one of the two bonus game features early on.
Still, when has that stopped us from enjoying some truly great festivities?
Certainly not when we were dancing on the Venetian streets in the Royal Masquerade slot, and certainly not now that we’ve embraced this gorgeous Japanese game.

Wild: The beautiful ornate lamp is the wild symbol and appears on any position across all 5 reels. It also replaces all other symbols on screen, except scatter.
Scatters and Free Spins: The elaborate festival masks is the scatter symbol and 3 anywhere on the reels with start 8 free spins.
Any one scatter during the free spins will then give you a further 2 free spins, up to maximum of 20 free spins.
You'll need them, as the wilds during the Matsuri bonus games expand and will 'walk' from the right hand to the left hand of the screen, till they drop off after reel one.
Kingyo Sukui Bonus Game: Get 3 goldfish anywhere on the reels, and you'll go fishing for goldfish; a classic festival Japanese game, we are told. Your objective is to catch the goldfish by scooping them up with a fragile paper spoon,
Which in this case translate into cash prizes until you've either caught them all, or your spoon breaks.
The scatters and wilds work in perfect unison to bring you some truly wondrous spins during the free spins in this Matsuri slot on mobile and online.
Granted, unlike the walking wilds in the Jack and The Beanstalk slot, these don't give you free re-spins, but you won't care as the delicious treats on the reels make you feel like celebrating.
It can be slow going at times, and temperamental, but you'll soon be won over by game that soft and gooey on the outside, but hard and full of wins on the inside.
However, if luck isn't on your side, the Jade Magician slot by the same provider gives you some easier, though not as large, wins.
