Slot Review: Wasabi-San

Here in America, we love our international cuisine. Of all the different foods Americans love, however, sushi has always ranked highly on the list. It’s hard to say what initially attracted Westerners to raw fish (a hard sell, we would imagine!), but now, the love affair between gaijin and this Japanese culinary standard is very strong. It’s only natural, then, that U.S. citizens with a sushi fetish will really enjoy Wasabi-San, a sushi-themed online slot machine title from the Microgaming online casino software firm. Wasabi, of course, is the notoriously spicy green condiment that is served alongside these delicacies. The exotic appeal of this game should really serve up a jolt to your normal gambling experience!

This five-reel, fifteen-payline online slot machine title has coin values ranging from one cent to one dollar, with max coins of seventy-five. The jackpot is seventy-five hundred coins, or seventy-five hundred dollars with the maximum bet. It may not be a six-figure fortune, but this prize is very generous for a fifteen-line punter, the likes of which tend to pay out a lot less on account of the many ways that one could win.

Wasabi-San is done up in lush shades of red, like a Japanese restaurant. The graphics depict lovingly-prepared piece of sushi that look good enough to jump off the screen! Unprepared fish are also on the reels. A geisha and a Japanese chef also appear. There are wilds, scatters, and free spins in this exceptional slot game title, as well as a bonus game in which you pick one or more live fish from an ice tray to reveal a hidden bonus dollar amount!
